Adrian Bartley's Complaint,

For several years Adrian BARLEY was foreman
of the Adams Packing Company, but in May, for
some reason not stated, he left the employ of
that company and applied for a situation with
Frank r. Jennings, who is engaged in the same
business-that of making j%ellies, preserves and
mince-meat Yesterday BARLEY filed his COM
plant in the Superior Court against the Adams
company, and it's president, George NJ. Adams,
alleging that through Misrepresentation Jennings
was prevented from taking BARLEY into his en-
ployment. He alleges that Adams went to Jen-
nings and said: "We want to warn you against
Adrian BARLEY. He has lost US thousands of
dollars by burning our jellies and preserves. He
has often assured US that our goods were all
right, and when the goods were shipped they
were returned as worthless. Don't you employ
him." On account of this Jennings refused to
give him work, and he asks for 49, 600 damages
from the Adams Packing Company and it's pres

worthy revelations regarding the relations
of Russia and England. The author Of
this article, which has created an immenpe
sensation here, is distinguished polish
aristocrat, who plays q great role at the
Court Of St. Petersburg.
The writer states that Gladstone's fall
made great impression in st. Petersburg.
After the defeat Of the Afghans at
Pendjeh, there was great patriotic excttet
ment and exultati In court circles. The
Gear himself demanded an Immediate nd.
vance Of the Russian troops In Afghan.

the opinion that Russia should rather

stone has been very useful To- Russia. His
fall must increase Rusaia's difficulties in

Giers, was the creator OF the Three Kaiaer
Alliance. Austria, through her dislike Of
the E1glish Premier, had been coustrain-
ad 10 attAch herself closer to Russia, Rus

These remarks OF n. de Giers evoked o

|. TORONTO, OST., August 3-The fire last
night was the most destructive that ever
occurred in this city. An hour after It
broke out in the eishtstory glucose fac
tory the flames extended for half mile
along the south side Of Esplanade street.
Scores Of vessels OF all kinds were moored
at the docks, and all were destroyed.
Henry Vert, a private watchman, Is
known to have perished in the flames.
The most exciting scenes were on the
crafts at the docks. The crews were
cut off by the fire from the decks, and as
the vessels caught fire they were forced
TO lump into the water and swim for their
lives. So rapidly did the fire spread that
the small boats were consumed before
they ooutd d be launched, and the sailors in
the water had to depend upon their own
strength until tugs from the outside could
pick them up. As 1t was, many OF them
were badly scorched, and 1t is feared some
fatally.
The exact loss or insurance cannot yet
be given, but the loss is estimated at over
million dollars. The Glucose works
were valued at S250.000. The schooner
Annie Milroy, valued at $4,000, was
burned to the waters edge. Among other
buildings burned were q number OF boat
