Fully Insured.

LyERMoRE FALLS, May IL.
The Livermorc Falls Pulp Co.'S new mill,
Alvin Record, proprietor, was nearly des-
troyed by fire Thursday night. The ma
chinery was saved in damaged condition.
The fire caught about ii O'Clock near the
dryer on the upper floor of the mill and was
caused by tin lamp falling to the floor
knocking off the filling cup Of the lamp. The
kerosene oil run run out on the floor and
under the long hot air dryer that runs the
lamp set the oil on fire and the fan of the
dryer carried it instantly along its entire
length. In few seconds the whole upper
story of the mill was in blaze. The citizens
Three streams of water were immediately
played on the building, and the citizens with
pals and buckets were flooding the floor with
water, while others with axes were cutting
through the roof for the hosemen. There
was a large amount of property in the i'm
mediate vicinity. Every man and boy did
his utmost and fought for all he was worth.
1t was only by the hardest fighting and
plenty of water that large amount of prop
erty, and probably part of the village, was
saved The mill was insured for fourteen
thousand dollars which will cover the i'm
mediate loss. The loss caused by stopping
the mill and failing to fill contracts. etc, Of
course will be large.

AMERICAN BAPTIST MISSIONARY
UNION.
The Charges Against One Of the Officers
False and Without Foundation.
BosToN, Nav IL.

BosToN, May ii.
In view of certain statements published
criticising the management of the financial
affairs of the American Baptist Missionary
Union, the executive committee feel called
upon to say that the charges of bad faith,
discrepancies in accounts and speculation in
stock by one of its Offices is entirely without
oundation. Every dollar of money received
by the treasurer has been accounted for and
vouchers for all the expenditures on file in
their office. The accounts of the treasurer
and his vouchers for disbursements have been
examined month by month by the auditing
committee, composed of persons not mem
bers of the executive committee, and who
receive their appointment from the board of
managers. The certificates of the auditing
committee to April of this year are also on
file and they certify that the accounts are cor
rectly cast and properly vouched; and there
is not the slightest evidence for the belief
tina, single dollar has come to hand, either
the past or present year that has not been
duly accounted for.

Did the Provocanon Justify the sho"'.
ing.
EARRopsRuRe. MAY II

EARRoDsBURG, May IL. !
Proceedings in the Thompson murder
trial. Yesterday were mainly formal. The
persecution rested after giving legal proof
Of the murder Col Jacobs presented the
defence to the jury by statement which
shows that the line of the defence will be
that the shooting was justified by great
wrong suffered by Thompson and the provo
cation was only heightened when Davis in 3
railroad car offered his hand to Thompson.
The defence began but was merely formal
The contest will take place when the defence
attempts to prove the facts which Justlned
the shooting by Thompson Mrs. Roth OF the
st. Clair Hotel of Cincinnati, was called by
the defence TO prove the acts of Davis and
Mrs. Thompson.
In the Thompson murder trial today Mrs
Roth testified as to meeting Davis and Mrs
THOMPSON; that Mrs Thompson was in
DAVIS room for more than an hour on Nov.
2Sth; that she saw her in the hall in drunken
state afterwards and helped her TO Miss Buck
ner's room, and heard the conversation be-
tween them; that Mrs. Thompson said they
had been to the theatre, but left before the
play ended.
John Maurer, porter, testified, telling the
same facts and saving that Mrs. Thompson
was in Davis room with him for an hour and
q half
Conductor Martin, who was on the train
when the shooting took place, said that when
Davis was turned over he saw pistol half
out of his pocket.
The colored porter testified that he saw
Davis try to draw his pistol while standing on
the platform and just before the fatal shot
was fred.
A few more witnesses were heard as to
miner details.
The last witness on the stand was J. B.
Thompson, brother of the prisoner. HIS
testimony had hardly begun when the point
of its competency was raised. He had testi-
| fed that at the request of his brother he
came to Cincinnati and investigated the
story; became satisfied of the guilty con-
duct of Davis and Mrs. Thompson and when
his brother returned from Washington in
April he told him of it.
| The prosecution undertook to inquire of
the witness how he became satisfied OF the
eriminality of Davis. The defence OBJ
jected.
The court postponed its ruling till Monday.
