Milwaukee, has received the following
dispatch:
RACINE, May 9.
Mayor StopeH, Mil,caukee.'

ADDRESS FROM MAYOR sTowELL.
MAYORS OFFICE,
MILWAUKEE, MAY 6.
TO the Citizens Of Mil'oaukee.,
At this writing, 1890 A. NJ, our sister
city, Racine, is at the mercy of the
flames. Her Mayor has called ON me to
send as many fire engines as we can
spare to them. Three are on their way
thither. l therefore call upon you to
exercise extra care lest similar calamity
oyertake us in our partially defenseless
condition. l hope our fremen may soon
return, and that all may be well; but in
any case the greatest precaution would
not now be out of place. Dispatches are
being received saying that the conflagra-
ton is spreading, and We may need to
send more of our force unless those al
ready gone forth are successful in their
mission. j. w. STowELL, Mayor.
LATER FROM RACINE.
RACINE, May 6.-3 A. M.-The lumber
yards of Racine are mass of flames. All
valuable books from the railroad office
are being removed, as it is feared that

Excitement runs high. The streets are

RAPID SPREAD OF THE FIRE.
RACINE, May 6, $40 A. M.-The fire
is still progressing, burning everything
in its way. AT present everything is
burned north of Third street from lake
to the river. and the fire is making
very serious Roadway south of Third
street. Two engines have arrived from
Milwaukee. 1t looks as though the
whole city was doomed, no engines
having arrived from Chicago. At 3:l5
the fire has reached Fourth street, and
will soon be across that street east of
Main
THE LATEST.
RACINE, May 6.-3:45 A. M.-The fire
beggars description. Over ten millions
of property is destroyed. Engines have
Just arrived from Milwaukee.
A dispatch just received fixes the
losses at thirteen millions. The fire is
still raging.
The Burnt District in Racine.
CHICAGO, May 6.-Nothing can be OBJ
tanned from Racine yet as to the condi-
ton of the burned city. A gentleman
well acquainted with the city says that
the fire, according to the accounts re-
ceived, burned that section bounded by
the lake on the east, by the river on the
southwest and by Fourth street on the
north, which comprises about nine
blocks, but not the finest ones in the
city. He says the loss would probably
not exceed $1,000 900 on this property,
and that the estimates of thirteen mil
lions are absurd.

Prof Thomas l.. Angel, A. NJ, professor

deliver a lecture at the Free Baptist church.
Friday evening, March Il, on 'Crusades. 5"
In addition to his scholarly abilities and his
talent for speaking, Prof. Angel has trav-
elled extensively in European and Oriental
countries, so that the lecture will doubtless
be both interesting and instructive.
Wednesday evening the Universalist ves-
try was packed to its utmost capacity by a
large and appreciative audience. The aisles
and rear of the hall were full. and there was
scarcely standing room. The entertainment
consisted of twO-act drama of nearly two
hours, illustrating scene of zone Hundred
Years Ago" which was followed by a short
farce entitled 1.-The Prosecuted Dutchman.'
The quaint humor. funny savings and side
splitting comicalities kept the audience con-
vulsed with roars of laughter. The charac-
tiers were sustained by amateurs and in a
manner creditable to more experienced
actors. The AnphiOns furnished some of
their excellent music, always so acceptable
TO Gardiner audiences. The storms of ap-
plause that greeted every act and selection,
showed the hearty appreciation of the audi
ence. 1t is highly gratifying to the society
that this concert, repeated by request, was
far more successful than the first. Their rep
utation for producing the best concerts in the
city is established.
The candidates for the various offices con-
ferred by the city government are becoming
numerous. The usual excitement is attend
ant.

IN CONVENTION.
The Corn Growers and Packers Cannot
Agree.

PoRTLASD, March ..
The meeting of corn packers, adjourned
from two weeks ago, met at Reception Hall,
Portland, Thursday. The attendance was
large. A committee Of corn growers was
in attendance, and a committee was appoint
ed to confer with them. long discussion
on the cost of cultivating occupied the morn

pay more than three cents per can, and the
afternoon session will probably amount to
nothing.
The corn growers convention closed after
passing a resolution declaring two and one
half cents pound is the lowest rate at which
sweet corn can be proftably raised, and ad-
visng farmers not to plant for any less. This
was adopted unanimously. The number of
acres of corn represented at the meeting was
204O. The position now is that the packers
will not give over three cents can while the
farmers demand fraction over four

Mr.. Frye's Tariff Speech.

Mr.. Frye tells his constituents that he

terest to pamper another.-The Ser Age.
We have read Mr.. Frye's speech care
fully and fail to find in it such statements
as are contained in the above. Mr.. Frye
declares himself in favor Of protective du-
ties, not to take money from the pockets
of one class of our people to pamper an
other, but to protect American labor and
capital against the pauper labor Of Europe.
Mr.. Frye believes that labor anywhere
should be better paid than it is in Europe,
and more particularly in the United States,
because laborers here have an equal part
in the government Of the country with
other classes, and therefore their
wages should be sufficient to allow
them means and opportunity TO edu-
cate themselves and their children

duties and privileges Of citizenship, and
furnish themselves by industry and econ

homes. He does not believe that the wo-
men and girls of this country should
be PLACED on the degraded level
with the women and girls of
Europe. who toll at carrying bricks, NOR
tar and clay for few beggarly cents per
day, or the men be crowded down to
starvation wages. Mr.. Frye's doctrine is
one of principle-just. equitable, humane;
the "wanton robbery is upon the other
side, and the name by which its uphold
ers is known is the democratic party.
