to-day denied the motion to release o
British subject named Augustine R. Me-
where he has been confined since 1879 for
refusing to pay tho fees Of lawyers How
eyea K Doll, who secured the pay ment OF q
claim for him for nearly $500. 900, which
he bad against the United States for cot
ton destroyed during the late war. Judge
O'Gorman said: "If he has suffered a
long imprisonment in the case it has been
his OWE fault. | see nothing in bis con-
duct to entitle him TO the extraordinary
indulgence of the Court. The question
seems chiefly to be whether the defendant.
by obstinate disobedience of the mandate
OF one court and by the equally obstinate
endurance Of the penalty imposed on him
by another, will succeed in wearing out
the law"
A Big Establishment burned.
BAY CITY, Mich, Dec. Sat II o'clock
last night a fire broke out in McGraw's
sawmill. The wind was blowing lightly
from the west and carried the fire to the
main building of the mill, which soon be-
came q mass OF seething flames. The fire.
men saw the mill must be consumed and
directed their attention to keeping the fire
from spreading, and by strenuous efforts
confined the conflagration to the mill
property and adjoining tramway. At l
O'Clock the mill was in ruins. 1t was
located at the extreme south end Of the
Saginaw river. At the time of its cree
tion in 1873 it was the largest concern OF
the kind in the world. The loss is $780,
600. on which there il an insurance OF
500, 900.
Substantial Evidence of Good
Times.
P~ITTsDURG, Dec. 3.-The iron dealers re-
port an advance of 81 on pig metal and
so cents ON ore within the past "a hours.
This has been brought about by the stead
lily increasing demand for these COM
modities, especially here, and is the first
appearance OF a substantial evidence OF q
revival of the iron trade. Business in
this city is reported good. The mills are
booking plenty of orders at the present,
and through the use and economies OF
natural gas they have a decided advantage
over the trade in general outside of the
Western Pennsylvania field.
