The \. P. Officials at St. Paul,
telegraphed station agent Harrison last
Wednesday evening for a correct
statement of the depth of water
in the bay between their dock and the
lake. Engineer A. X. Smith pro
ceeded to take the soundings on Thurs
day morning, and he reports l64 feet
from the \. p. Dock out to the en-
trance. 1t is quite evident that the
\. 7. Co. are going to handle their
freight at this point in the future, and
that this information is desired for the
benefit and guidance of the boats now
on their way up the lakes and for
those about to start for the head of
the lake. We will soon have boats
unloading here and business lively.

On Thursday at almost the same
moment our fire was discovered, the
alarm was sounded in Duluth on
Rice's Point, where large barn be-
longing to the Duluth Lumber Co.,
was discovered to be in flames. Brands
from this set small single mill on
fire which was also destroyed, and for
a time it seemed as though the mills
and lumber in the yards must 60 also,
but these were finally saved. In the
stable was number of horses, and
q of the poor animals persisted in
the flames The Duluth Tribune re-
ports the total loss at about $4,000.
About the same time in another part
of the city, small dwelling house was
burned to the ground.

 the Burrows Estate.
 ALBION, N. Y, Aug. 22.-It is the opinion of Warmers friends that it would have been better for all concerned if he had remained at home and faced the music as he alone thoroughly understands the condition of af- fairs. A member of the Burrows family stated to-day that they had no hope of any thing being left that was susceptible of being taken away and they believe the dedication to be the result of 8 studied scheme. Whether this is true or not is only matter for conjecture. The whole trouble may be laid to speculation commenced on Warmers private capital, but which eventually swal- lowed up most of the personal property of the Burrows estate if not that of the bank. The idea that the family will be beggared is, however, secuted. Experts have opened the outer door of the securities safes but their drills cannot penetrate the burglar proof plates and they return to Rochester for spe- cial tools. Bank Examiner Williams is now in charge. Doubtless Warner took with him plenty of cash and is now in Canada. There is but little confidence expressed by the banks depositors despite the assurances of it's officers The Burrows family left Warner in undisputed control of their affairs, although his management was by no means satisfactory

had been tied to the bedposts and whipped and otherwise badly treated. It was found that five children had died in the house within the past few weeks. The occupants, O. W. Radcliffe, Henry Mahler, James McCewen, Mrs. O. E. Pease, Mrs. Slater and Mrs. Fi- della Parker were arrested The twelve children were sent to 8 home. The most of them are supposed to be illegitimate At the police court one of the men claimed that they were fulfilling Gods commandments. The prisoners were charged with cruelty and neglect of children and placed under $1 ,500 bonds each When asked if bail should be procured for them they replied that God would take care of them and that they were perfectly willing to remain in prison.

GRADY,S DETECTION.
Tammany Probably To Work Quietly
 for Butler.

SARATOGA, Aug. 22-Ex-Senator Grady's withdrawal from the State Democratic com mittee is the subject of lively discussion to- night. A number of politicians have been interviewed and most of them agree that it is the first open rupture between Tammany and the regular Democracy as represented by Cleveland and Hendricks. Grady and Kelly have been in frequent consultation during the past few weeks. The knowing ones associate Grady's action with resolve to throw Cleveland on the part of Tammany It is not thought, however, that Tammany will pass formal resolutions against the Dem ocratic ticket. Kelly will probably offer resolution himself endorsing it, but members of the organization, according to rumor cur rent tonight, will receive quiet hints to SUD- port Butler at the polls.
