after his visit to New York Mr. Cleveland would
require all the remaining time until the 4th OF

cabinet and inaugural address; but not being
certain that this statement was authorized we
concluded to write and ask. We so stated in
the letter, and said that If his time was so taken
up the petition would be sent by mail His
reply was courteous and perfectly satisfactory.
He said he would be very glad to confer with
the delegation, but that he had given his time
to the public until now he had only time left 10

the 4th Of March, and therefore he would srS-
gest the alternative that the petition be sent by

FIRE IN PIEELADELpHIA.
A Number Of Buildings i'm Chestnut
Street i'm Flames-One Man Killed.

PHILADELPHIA, February ia destructive
fire broke out on Chestnut street, between I'd
and Front streets, locality devoted entirely to
large warehouses and business houses between
nine and ten o'clock this morning Tn: ee
buildings are now in flames The Corn Ex-
change National Bank, on the corner OF I'd and
Chestnut streets, caught fire.
The fire originated in the five-story brick
structure, No. 125 Chestnut street, occupied by
Stephenson & Co., Getz d Stratton, Richard &,
Blythe and Garsed & Co., all dealers in cotton
and wool
After the fire was discovered and flames
burst from the windows the front of the three
upper stories fell out and crashed down into
the street, causing q rumor that an explosion
had occurred, but 1t is not yet known whether
or not there We're any explosives I'm the build
ing. When the wall fell a laborer whose maine
is said to be John Mckay, was engaged i'm re-
moving a safe from the adjoining building. He
was buried by the falling bricks and instantly
killed. The horse attached to the hose cart
standing In front of the building was also killed
The flames spread rapidly TO the buildings on
the east, and Nos. 123 and 121 Chestnut street
were enveioped in flames. The former building
is occupied by Irvine {. Beatty & Co., dealers in
worsted yarns, and the latter by George III.
AT 11:15 a. IN. the firemen are confident that
they have the fire fully under control, and that
1t cannot spread further.
The losses will be very heavy, but no estimate
can yet be made A rough estimate is that it
will not be less than $2OO.OOO.

killed at the scene of the fre-John Mckay or

Even His Kisses Come High.

A good story was told of Booth when he
was here last, says the Philadelphia Press,
which illustrates his indifference to the
class of women who always find something
irresistible and fascinating in the men who
earn their livings behind the footlights.
Booth was travelling OH the Boston & AL
bany road one day, having just closed an
engagement in the New England metropolis.
He heard an extensively dressed, hand
some, middle-aged woman back of him sigh
and say to her companions: II would give
$50 to kiss that man." Booth turned sud-
denly and looked at the speaker. ''Do
you mean that?" he demanded, fixing his
fine dark eyes upon her and causing the
blood to mount up to the very roots of heI
hair.
''Why, yes, of course, do" replied the
woman confusedly, looking in helpless
sort of way at the great tragedian, and al
the smiling passengers.
''Well, accept the terms, madam" ex-
claimed Booth SOlemnly.
''And | stand by my proposition" said
the woman, recovering herself-possession
and, rising, she imprinted a sound kiss upon
the actors lips. Booths face did not be-
tray the slightest emotion. He received the
kiss stolidly, and did not return it, but
waited until the impetuOuS woman found
her purse and handed him $50 bill. He
took the money, thanked her, and turning
to a feeble, shabbily dressed woman on the
other side of the aisle, who was travelling
with two young children, placed the money
in her hands, and, with a cOurtly bow, said
''This is for the children madame. Take,
it, please" and without another word he
left the car,
