THE SATTLER FIRE
Not Occasioned by a Break of the Electr
Wires.

Not Occasioned by a Break Of the Electric
Wires.
To the Editor of the Globe:
The intimation that the fire which orig
mated in the clothing store of Messrs. Sat-
tier Bros, on Third street, last evening, was
produced by the electric light wires coming
in contact with the wood work of the
building is utterly without foundation.
The electric lights in the store continued
to burn without interruption while the fire
was in progress, which would not have been
the case if the electric current had been
interrupted, and there is no indication that
the fire commenced on the outside of the
building. On the contrary, close exam
ination by myself and others shows con-
clusively that ignition first took place
within closet in the store.
The wires used by the Fuller
company in this city are
perfectly insulated as required
by the New York board of underwriters.
but in no case can fire be produced by
the electric current, unless it should hap
pen that the insulation was first de-
stroyed and the wire then brought in con-
tact with some metallic body or wood thor
oughly wet and communicating with the
ground.
No such conjunction occurred in the pres
emit case, and it is unjust and injurious to
the business of electric lighting for the
press to attribute the calamity which befel
the Messrs. Settlers to any such cause.

A train arrived at San Francisco last
week with nearly 1000 sick and disabled
Chinese laborers, who had become useless
for work on the Southern Pacific railroad.
The arrival being unexpected, none of
their countrymen were there to receive

clubs and stones was kept up for some
time, but finally the police arrived and
captured the ringleaders, who were sent to

Tie WeeE IN England.


The coming week will be an exciting one
in England, as it virtually brings the sea-
son to close. On Tuesday, at the New
market Houghton meeting, Cambridge
shire will be run. The American horse,
Bookmaker, who ranked second favorite in
the betting, has been scratched, and it is
not likely the Americans will look beyond
Sachem as representative. He is in with
80 lbs, and is well supported. Nellie, who
has 1O4 lbs, is another likely one, but
Tristan is, at most, doubtful starter with
top weight. Geheimniss, the Oaks win
ner, has l1S lbs, which is likely to stop
her, and Bruce, with 116 lbs, is well
thought of. The Dewhurst Plate will be
run on Wednesday, and the new Derby
candidate, Energy, or the first favorite
Macheath, will, in all probability, make
their positively last appearance" in pub
lie. Lord Falmouth's Galliard is also in
as is the French filly Hauteur and Lord
Cadogan's Goldfeld. The American rep.
resentatives are Potosi, Crown Point, Mas
sasoit, and Commando. The Criterion
which is run on Monday, may give US &
Zine" to the Dewhurst. Energy is not in
the Criterion, but Macheath is, as are The
Americans Bolero, Massasoit, and Comanche
and the French colt Bon Jour.

Theories Of the Earth,s surface

Professor Charles s. Hastings, in a
recent lecture at the Johns Hopkins
University, gave an outline Of the lead.
ing theories in regard to the phvsical
character of the earth. Although,
there are great many theories. thew
may be reduced to two distinct ones.
According to the first the interior of
the earth is fluid covered with thin
crust, about thirty miles or therea-
bouts in thickness. The advocates Of
the second theory hold that the earth
Is practically solid sphere. Among
the reasons given for sustaining the
hrst theory, the following are. per-
haps, the principal, namely: AS we
60 down In mines, wells and other
underground caverns, it has been as
certalncd that the heat increases in a
ratio of one degree for every 100 feet
OF descent below the suns influence.
This theory is also supported by the
occurrence of volcanic eruptions and
earthquakes, and the existence of hot
springs. Those who put forth the sec
oad theory also support it by two ar
gnments. They hold that if the cen
ter OF the earth were a liquid and the
outer surface solid, the heavier Dor.
ton would go to the center. Again.
the weight of the crust of the earth is
about two and one-haf times that Of
water; the weight of the whole earth
is known. From that it may be de-
duced that, in order to make up the
entire weight, it must be seven times
as heavy as water at the center. The
lecturer briefly discussed the two the.
orles, and said if the two theories
were modified they could be reconcied
and that this mean would probably be
the true theory. The interior of the
earth is most probably a fluid of the
consistency of tar.
