 MILTON, Pa, May IA fire started this morning at 11:3O in Murray, Donnegalt 6 Co.'s car works, and in short time the works were in ruins. The flames were famed by Q strong wind and leaped from building to build ingand into the very heart of the place. Help was telegraphed for to all the cities within reach, and several engines responded, but could do very little towards checking the flames. House after house fell victim to the raging element, until between five hundred and six hundred were mass of smoking en- bers. The two banks, all the churches but one, the newspaper offices and all but three business places were destroyed. It was 8 terrible sight and carried terror to the hearts of the residents who saw their houses swept away like chaf before the wind. The area burned over is perhaps three quarters of a mile in extent and quarter broad. The flames were not gotten under control until dark this evening, and then only because the re was nothing in their path to consume. The losses cannot at present be estimated, fer all is excitement, but they will amount to between

 Englana's Agricultural Depression
 How Her Farmers Must Meet Ameri-
 can Competition.
 LONDON, May 14.-Mr. James Caird, the eminent agricultural authority, in 8 letter to the Times on British agricultural prospects and American competition says: "It may be useful to show the pressing need for the early removal Of every impeachment which unneces- sarily hampers us in the competition to which we are now exposed. Nothing like the pres ent depression in the agricultural interest has been seen since the repeal of the corn laws. In nine years there have been seven defective wheat harvests, inc last eliminating in intsn- sity snd including in it's grasp a part of duce of the land. In England where the bulk of the wheat crop is grown, there has been lost in these years a fourth moro than whole years wheat crop-a loss to the wheat growers of more than thirty millions sterling, with no compensation in higher prices. The introduction of foreign meat and cereals is of immense benefit to the copsum- ing classes of Europe. American statesmen believe they ara rapidly gaining control of this trade and can maintain 1t even at lower prices. It must be met by the production here of articles which will not bear long stor- age carriage, such milk, fresh butter, early meat, vegetables, hay, straw, potatoes, and the sugar beet. Grass farms, ,dairying and market gardening-all the interests in land, whether of the owner. occupier or laborer- must be disenthralled. The control of the dead land must be removed. The sale and transfer of land must be sim pliied and cheapened. Encumbered and un. wieIdly estates will then be broken up and subdivided to form numerous small prop critics The drain of Agricultural labor and capital to the United States and Canada, which has already commenced and which nothing can prevent from continuing and increasing, will alter the existing cordi tions of agricultural property in England Our agriculture must adapt itself to the change, freely accepting the good it brings, and skilfully using the advantages which greater proximity to the best market must al- ways command"
