Fire.

Lake Pontcalap, GA fire broke
out here shortly after last midnight
and burned three hours, destroying
an entire block of the principal
business houses entirely. Loss,
$4,000; insurance, not to exceed
$4,000. It is believed to be the re.
suit of incendiarism.
Springfield, Ills, 6.-The house of
John EVarts, at Riverton. seven
miles from this city, was burned to-
day. Mrs. Phoebe Foglan, mother
of Mrs. Evarts, aged 68 years, and
two children of Mrs. Evarts, aged 2
and babe, were burned to death.
The fire occurred in the lower part
of the house, which was used for a
carpenter shop, the family living
up stairs. Mrs. Evarts was in the
yard washing at the time the fire
was discovered. She rushed up stairs
and tried to rescue her mother
and the children and was badly
burned, but was finally forced to
leave them to their fate. The old
lady was very feshy and would not
trust herself to the stairs, which
were then in flames, and would not
give the babe up, which she was
holding for its mother. The father
was absent at the coal shaft and
knew nothing of the fire until
its dread work was accomplished.

Paris, 6.-The unwilling of the
statue Of Lafayette took place to-day
at Lep0y, in the presence of an

Among the distinguished persons
present were Morton, United States
Minister to France; Sargent,
United States Minister to Germany /;
General Columbia and Colonel Lich-
tenstein, who represented President
Grevy, and General Viullemot, who
represented General Thibaudin,
Ministerof the Interior. Morel,
president Of the Lafayette memorial
committee, performed the ceremony
OF unwilling the statue amid the
plaudits of the multitude and salutes
OF artillery. Senator Vissan-
gele delivered the opening
address and Morton fol-
lowed. He said he was forced
to be present and assist in this trib-
ute to the memory Of Lafayette,
He desired to express the interest
of the government and the affection
felt by the citizens of the United
States for the patriot, who, next to
Washington, had awakened the
gratitude of all American hearts as
ardent as the love of liberty.
America had attained that splendoT
and prosperity which Lafayette
had predicted. The nations of
France and America were never
more united than on those occasions,
and may the friendship which
Washington and Lafayette founded
remain forever unbroken between
the two republics.
Senator Lafayette, in a brief
address, returned thanks for the
homer conferred upon the name OF
his ancestor.

LATEST TELEGRAMS
Perils of the Deep.

Halifax, 6.-The steamer Lam
port, from Baltimore for London,
arrived here to-day in distress. One
hundred and forty cattle, shipped
by Lingham s. Co. from Boston,
were lost at sea. On Wednesday,
the 22d, the gale struck the ship, in
creRsIng in fury as the day adj
Vanced. The steamer was frequently
swept 10y seas of fearful power.
After dark the storm grew worse,
the wind blowing with terrific vio-
lence and the sea rising to a fearful
height, threatening every moment to
swamp the steamer. At II o'clock
the storm was at its height and the
vessel was almost at the mercy of
the elements. Great seas swept the
decks, carrying away $50 out Of
the $50 cattle aboard and badly inN
juring a number of the crew. Will
lam Moran, who had charge of the
cattle, describes the night as tor
rible. The waves were tremen-
dous in size and swept ,overthe ship.
They would lift a great portion OF
the cattle pens on their crests,
hold them for moment and
then hurl them with their living
contents with awful violence to the
deck. The next wave would carry
off the bleeding and dying animals
in the Gwinkling of an eye. The
live stock we're over the side of the
ship by this time and by morning
all that remained numbered forty,
of which four have since died, leaV,
ing thirty six out OF 400 cattle taken
out only two weeks ago. During
the storm all the tow boats
were either carried away or disabled
The cabin, skylight and store cabin
were flooded, portion of the bull.
warks and part of the poop wheel
were carried away and other dam
age was suffered. On Thursday
morning the storm abated some
what, but heavy sea rushed
almost as much as during the pre-
ceding night and between 8 and G
o'clock the engines broke down
The steamer was then almost S0(
miles southeast of Halifax. A sal
mast was rugged and she wa'
headed for Halifax. On Thursday
afternoon the water continued pour
ing over the vessel and got into thu
stoke hold, and put out the fire BY
which the steam pump was run, bu
the ship kept on until temporar!
repairs in the machinery Wer'
made. On Monday, four days afte
the machinery broke down, the en-
gines were started again, and tn,
vessel made all sail for Halifax
The Lamport will probably be her
for some days, as, besides the acct
dent to her machinery and Othe
damages, her cargo shifted, and
portion Of it will have to be re
slowed,

Indian Scare.

Cheyenne, Wy, 6.-The stockmen
of Northern Wyoming believe there
is grave danger Of hostilities the
coming fall from the rowing bands
of Crows, Sioux, Cheyennes, Sho-
shones, Bannocks and GrosYentres
off their reservations. There are
no buffalo and but little small game
in the country. The Indians have
killed thousands of cattle the last
three years. Stockmen have had
horses stolen and robbed Of food.
There is talk Of organizing and driv-
ing the Indians back to their reser.
vations. The agents are suspected
of dishonesty and leaving the In
dians to Starve or steal.

A Frightful Affair.

San Francisco, GA frightful
affair occurred this afternoon in g.
saloon, whereby Thomas Mullen, a
cooper, was shot dead by Edward
Lacey, another cooper, in drunken
frolic. Both men had spent the day
visiting saloons and were much
intoxicated. After taking q drink
in the place where the tragedy
occurred, Mullen felt a pistol IN
Lacey's pocket, and told him to
exhibit it, when Mullen placed the
muzzle in his mouth, telling his
friend to pull trigger. Lacey did
so, forgetting, in his drunken con-
dition, that the pistol was self
cocker, aad Null en- fell dead. The
two have been warm and intimate
friends for the last eleven years.

Henry Ward Beecher.

San Francisco, 6.-The trustees
of the Plymouth Congregational
church have agreed to pay Henry
Ward Beecher $2,400 for his four
lectures IN this city. Judging by
the thin audiences at the two first
lectures the probabilities are that
the trustees will lose money.
Beecher is not popular here. His
former utteranceS on the Chinese
question alienated the sympathies
OF { the people of this coast
from him, and in a published inter-
view to-day On the same subject he
expressed an opinion which will
tend to increase his unpopulSrity.
He says: "The treatment the Chin
nese have received on this coast is
shameful and ridiculous. While all
the rest of the world is adopting a
most liberal and advanced course in
the matter of freedom of persons
who go and come without restraint,
here is little strip of western
country insisting upon a narrow,
selfish policy of exclusion, which
policy even China itself has long
since abandoned" Beecher lectures
tonight at Stockton, and next Tues
day in Salt Lake.

San Grancisco, 6.-The habeaa
corpus case of the Chinaman Iii Ho,
before Judge Field, in the United
States District court, this morning,

writ, returnable tomorrow.

Prospective Reform Measures.

New York, 6.-The Senate COM
mittee on labor education resumed
its session to>day.
John SWinton took the stand, and
testified at considerable length. He
recommended the revival of the inH
come tax as originally in force; the
establishment of a national board Of
industry, empowered to collect labor
statistics of every description, and
including the power to enforce the
eight-hour law; the establishment
of effectual boards of health, educa-
ton and public works, industrial
schools and college on the French
system of public membership; rails
roads and telegraphs on the Bel
GUM system; freedom of patents
and postal banks under the British
system; land laws which will pre-
vent the holding by private individ-
uals of great tracts of land; public
ownership Of coal, iron, gold and
other mines, and all oil wells.
Every one Of these measures have
been put in practice in one country
or another, and were all capable of
enforcement by legislation, and
have in every instance proved sue
c6SSful.
