Freight Rates Not Benefited by Nickel
Plate-The Purchase of tho Road.
CHICAGO, Oct. 29.-The earnings of the
six railroads running shows up well notwith-
standing the light business transacted. 1t is
quite certain that before the end of the
month another advance on east bound freight
will be made. There were hopes that the
competition of the ''Nickel Plate'' road would
keep down high rates, but they have been
blasted by the sale of that road to MIR. Van
derbilt. Although Mr.. Vanderbilt denies the
purchase of the road, no doubt is entertained
here that the road was really bought by
Messrs. Devereaux d Burke of the @. G. G. q
l. for Vanderbilt, who thus hopes to divert
considerable portion of business to the
''Nickel Plate" road previous to its admission
to the pool.
Jay Gould arrived in this city last evening
on his way East. He said in reference to the
''Nickel Plate'' road that he had never a
single dollars worth of interest in its con-
struction. He stated that the Western In
diana Railroad company had compromised
with the Michigan Southern company, pay
ing $3.50, 900 damages sustained by the for
mer crossing the latter's track. Gould left
for New York this afternoon.
In confirmation of the startling rumor that
the 'Nickle Plate" road had been purchased
by Messrs. Devereaux and Burke not in the
NauoeIcIit AhGoIeSG, Oub Ia INC 1utoioS1 "a t4o
Lehigh Valley road, e. S. Byington, general
passenger agent of the Lehigh Valley system,
stated to the agent of the United Press asso-
citation to night that the rumor was undoubt-
eddy true. He said the s'Niokle Plate" road
was built with the tacit understanding that it
would when completed be sold to she Lehigh
Valley road for the purpose of max
ing trunk line between Chicago
and New York independent of the control of
Vanderbilt and under the Lehigh Valley
management The increasing western de-
mand for anthracite coal has resulted in tn Q
scheme to establish at Chicago what will be
the greatest coal depot in the West.
H.. e. Packer, the vice president of
the Lehigh Valley company, stated
that this enterprise was year ago
identified with the East Chicago I'm
provement company. This company has
a capital of $16,OOO,OO subscribed by Jay

FIRE RECORD.

FALL River, Mass, Oct. 29.-Firs broke
out yesterday afternoon in the Flint mill and
in a short time had enveloped the entire
structure. The entire fire department, and
all the available assistance that could be had,
was brought into requisitlon without effect.
Directly opposite the burning mill was the
Wampanoag mill "a massive granite structure,
separated from it by space only $50 feet in
width. The strong northeast wind blew a
cloud of burning cindsrs straight against it,
and it began to blacken with heat and smoke.
It seemed at one time as if this mill was also
doomed, and word was telegraphed to New
Bedford, Taunton and Newport for assist.

deluged it's sides with we'll directed streams
of water and thus saved it, we'll earning lib
eral praise bestowed upon them. Meanwhile
the fire raging in the Flint mill kept gaining
Roadway despite the efforts to check it

Shortly after five o'clock the entire south
end, floors and walls, fell in. The wind then
shanged to the east and the fire, which had
been bursting in fitful jets from the northern
half, leaped with fresh fury from every win
dow. The scene at half past five o'clock was
magnificent beyond description. The wind
carried the sparks distance of nearly
quarter of mile The flames were leaping
fully fifty feet in the air, and the entire mill
was smoking furnace, and although it was
evident that no human effort can save any
part of the mill, the fremen continued to
pour in floods of water, in order to hold the
flames in check and prevent their further
spread-in which they were successful. The
1000 feet distant were heated and the paint
on them blistered. Burning masses of Gin
ders fell on the roofs of the houses, and the
occupants of about twenty tenements in the
vicinity began to move out their furniture,
but the firemen succeeded in saving every
one of these buildings At a quarter to eight
o'clock the north end of the mill fell in and
granite blocks were hurled over hundred
feet. The entire roof and every floor had
already fallen, and at nine o'clock only frag-
ments of the bare walls of the main mill were
standing.
granite, five stories high built in 1872 and
constructed and equipped at cost of over
$500, 900. The main building was 300 feet
long by "a wide. The picker house, which
adjoined the center of the mill on the
east side, was also granite struc
turs and was three stories high, the
engine and the boiler house being on
the first floor. The total loss, including the
new machinery and goods in process of man
ufacturs, will be 300, 600. There is an in
surance amounting to $G2O, 900, all in mutual
companies in Boston, Providence and this
city. The mill had capital of 5000, O0O, and
a large amount of the stock is held by men
who can i'll afford to lose it. The total mum.
Der of stockholders is nearly two hundred
The mill employed 500 hands and haa nearly
fifty thousand spindles, and had an annual
production of 100000 yards of print
cloths. Its destruction will be heavy blow
to operatives and stockholders alike. The
efforts of the fremsn were retarded by the
lack of water, the city mains not furnishing
q sufficient quantity, and four engines were
obliged to take water from pond situated
at a short distance from the mills. When it
was found that the Wampanoag mill was out
of danger, word was sent to tho other cities
that assistance was not needed.
