FRANCE AND SPAIN.
in Reference so the Claims of
Saida Residents.

LONDON, August 2O.-The Paris cores
pondent Of the Times says: cat the recep-
tiOn given to the diplomatic body here the
Duke of Fernan Nunez, the Spanish Ambas-
sador at Paris, handed to NJ. Barthelmy St.
Hilaire, Minister of Foreign Affairs, the
reply of Spain in regard to her claim for
indemnity for damages suffered by Spanish
subjects by the recent raid at Saida, in
which Spain congratulates herself that
France, while maintaining the principle of
indemnity claimed by her as TO the
Cuban and Carlist risings, acknowledges
that the Saida episode has special charac-
ter, which is not to be confounded with the
former, and that without copceding any OBJ
ligatory nature of compensation,
might create precedent, which
France is bound to avoid, she recognizes
the expediency of entertaining the Spanish
claims not so much on grounds of interna-
tiOnal law as from considerations of mutual
friendship and humanity.
Spain expresses the hope that the matter
may be speedily settled, and the bonds of
friendship between the two nations thereby
be knit closer.
M. Barthelmy St. Hilaire, on receiving
the note, merely asked for q statement cf
the sum which Spain claims. This state
ment will be furnished next week.

BAD NEWS FOR Mr.. LOWELL.
THE FLAMES IN WHEELING.
A Destructive Conf1agratiOn Yester-
day.

WHEELING, W. VA, August 21.-The
most damaging coDfagration that has
visited Wheeling for several years occurred
this afternoon at 4:30 o'clock In a small
wooden stable in the rear of N. Schultz's
candy factory and wholesale confectionery.
A brisk breeze was blowing, and a number
of sheds and outhouses in adjoining yards
were quickly a sheet of flame. The fire
communicated to the candy factory,
three Story brick building on Market street,
and in an incredibly short time it was
all burning. The buildings occupied
by Fl. E. Banks jewelry store ad-
joining south and Etna Insurance
Company on the north next caught, and the
fire also spread to portion of the block on
the south occupied by w. S. Hutchin as an
art and music store, Helmbright's cigar fac
tory and tobacco store, Oehms g. Co.'s
clothing store and an Italian confectionery.
This block was completely gutted, and tx
tensive stocks of goods were burned or
ruined by water. The Opera House caught
several times, but was saved by the almost
superhuman efforts of the fire department.
The Intelligence office was also seriously
threatened, and the intense heat kindled
flame in the rear of several extensive whole
sale establishments on Main street several
times.

VICE PRESIDENT ARTHUR.
The --latest RumOr Concerning Him
Denied.

WASHINGTON, August 2O.-From the best
information to be had here, there is no
truth in the report that Vice President
Arthur contemplates insisting upon as
suming the Presidential duties. The mat
ter is delicate one, and the course Of the
Vice President since the shooting of Presi-
dent Garfield has been of a charac-
ter to warrant that be would take
no part In the contemplation OF
such plan, unless first indorsed by the
members of the present Cabinet. The Cabi-
net, 1t is also known. has made no recon-
mendations of such a nature, statements to
the contrary notwithstanding, and all the
statements on the subject hereto
fore published are pure
fsbrications. 1t was represented
that Postmaster General James has agreed
to sustain Arthur in assuming the duties of
President, but the Postmaster General said
to day: "You may state positively for me
that have neither been consulted about the
matter nor have considered it.'
