Importing Potatoes from Rsn
Francisco to humboldt

p. w. Cunningham loaded Pat
O'Brien's team to-day with $1,000
pounds Of potatoes foa the troops at
Fort McDermit. Though Humboldt
has dcservedly. the reputation Of pro.
ducing the best potatoes on the Coast,
and car leads Of them are shipped to
California, where they command much
higher price than those raised in the
Golden State, those for Fort McDermit
were imported from California. This
is one Of tee anomalies Of trade, which
gives peopls an idea Of the Government
method OF transacting business. The
Civil Service Commission ongQt to en-
brace in its questions to applicants for
positions in the Departments somything
like this: Fort McDermit, Nevada, is
situated iu Humboldt county, which ex-
ports potatoe:: to California, where, in
consequence Of their superior qualities,
they command higher price than Cal.
ifornia wototoes, and these potatoes sell
in Humboldt at less rate per pound
than the freight on California potatoes
to that county: How much does the
Government lose and Ihe contractors
make by buying potatoes SCR the troops

nAE1acs BURHED TO DEATH.

| Eighteen raviUg maniacs were hurDeo 10
death last night in the Blockiey Aimshouse'
on the Schuylkiil river, Philadelphia, in
corfagra!ion, the most horrible disaster 0,
| the kind ever known in the history of the
city. In the building where the fire broke
out there were sixty separate cells for Vlo'
; lert patients, twenty on each floor. In adj
dtion to these there was large room On
each of the three floors, in which cots Tor
twelve men were placed, ali Of which were
occupied when the FIRE broke out. How
the flames originated is not known. The
first alarm was given by an insane patient
on the first floor of the maiu building. This
man, Joseph Nadine, about ten minutes 10
o'clock saw smoke issuing from above
the door which opened into the
wing. He ran to the iron grated door
fronting on the main corridor of the build
ing and cried out "Fire!' Mrs Umpstead,
who has general charge at night, at once
hurried to the scene. She says that an at
tempt was made TO put out the flames with
buckets of water. She then fastened to
get all the patients from the main building
extending back from the east wing.
Attendant Shredder thus relates some Of
the horrows of the dreadful night:
II succeeded in unlocking the doors of
all the cells or the first floor and in getting
all the inmates cut. ] had no lime 10 look
after them further than 20 run thcu1 into
the yard, for the flames were getting 80

breathe in the building. While | WAS get

Strain, was doing the same for The inmates
on the second floor MIR. Hanna. The night
watchman. was also bel ping. and we went
up to the inrd story, but were driven back
hr the flames, which had forced sEeir way
through the stairway and were creeping
along 10 The cells Of The doomed inmates
We rau around TO the other stairway. near
the new buildings on The wes!, and by that
time some iiremen had arrived. All The in.
mates had seen gotten out Of the second
story, so that there remained abunt twenty
eight on the third hoos twenty in the cells
aud eight in the large common room on the
Wcst end"
The cries Of the unfortunate occupants Of
the cells were hestrtrendiug. Some of them
cursed and swors, others laughed hideously,
and others yelled with pain, with such
awful cries as would have appalled, The
hardest heart.
The fremen, Shredder and patient
crawled on their hands and knees to such
of the men as could be reached and dragged
out fourteen, eight of them alive, four sufo-
Gated to death, and two SO horribly burned
that they died before they could be gotten
out of the building.
There were four Of the inmates Of cells in
one ward who were rescued by the police,
but one of them was so badly burned about
the feet that he died.
