Several Towns Partially Destroyed
1.-The Peril OF Big SuamicO.
Special to the Globe.
GREEN BAY, Wis, Aug. 10.-The fires
are still prevailing in the woods in all di-
rectons from this city, and reports of
destruction are continually coming in. The
destruction of property about Little Suam-
leo was severe. A barn with contents and
blacksmith shop belonging to A. Edred
burned, and the following farmers lost
buildings: j. Hartho. Frank Quinda. A.
Seclye, S. Smith, j. Badore and Others
Fences and numerous fields of grain
burned. The people were thoroughly ter.
ritied and flocked into the village, hoping
to get means to get away from the scene of
danger, but found that even railroad trains
were temporarily cut off. One woman left
her babe sleeping in her house while she
went TO neighbor'S, and attempting to
return found the
FIRE HAD CUT OFF THE ROAD
to her house, and destroyed the building
with the child in it. A special from Pen
mills burned belonging to a man named
Fennelon, besides six houses and two barns.
Much grain was lost by farmers.
In the town of Howard. Dunham's mill,
LAWYERS two houses, and houses belonging
to John and Daniel O'Neil have been de-
stroyed and other damage done. The
village of Big Suamico was so beset by fire
that the people sent request for a steamer
to take them to Green Bay. About 100
gathered at the rivers mouth to await the
arrival of the steamer. The fires in the
Oneida reservation swept nOrtheaStward
through the town of Lawrence, burning
twenty-five dwelling houses and William
sons saw mill. The flames are reported to
be moving toward Nicollet.

GENERAL BRITISH NEWS.
The Irish Advised to Get Food and
Clothes Before They Pay Land

Clothes Before They Pay Land
lords.
LONDON, Aug. 10.-T. D. Sullivan, M.
P. for Dublin, at the meeting of the Ma
tional league held here to-day made a
speech in which he maintained that until
the tenants in Ireland had sufficient food
and clothing for themselves and their fami-
lies their landlords could have no just claim
to rent. Mr.. Sullivan counseled the Irish
people to act according the law of self
preservation, which he he reminded them
was the first law of nature, The Belfast
rioting, he argued, was based npon preju-
dices and feelings that had grown up under
the encouraging influence of foreign mis-
rule" and was of a nature unduly at vari-
ance with the wishes of real Irish people.
THE QUEENS SPEECH
in the reassembling of parliament will be
of remarkable brevity. Beyond refer
ence to foreign relations probably no sub
ject of importance will be touched upon
and the speech will be confined to the
business of the session. The steamer
Sarmatan, which sails from Liverpool for
Quebec and Montreal, Ont, the 9th inst,
will take deputation from the Ulster
Anti-Repeal union, consisting of Rev. Mr..
Kane, Orange Grand Master Hill and Mr..
Smith, barrister, for the purpose of ex-
planning to their brethren in Canada and
America the state of the loyalist cause.

The Affair Still in the Hands of the
Stale Department

WASHINGTON, Aug. lot is stated at
the war and navy departments to-day that
while the fighting branches of the govern
ment are in their customary condition of
readiness for action, offensive and defen-
sive, the present difficulties with Mexico
are yet the exclusive concern of the diplo-
matte branch aud that no move
mentS of troops or vessels have
yet been ordered with view to
possible warfare. At the state department
it is said that there is nothing new which it
would be proper to make public at present,
but that there still is no reason to doubt an
amicable adjustment of the Cutting affair.
1t is unofficially learned that the CORE
spondence now in progress is expected to
bring about definite results of some kind
within few days, and the direct object
sought to be accomplished by this govern
ment is. first, the release of Cutting.

MEMPHIS, Ten, Aug. 10.-Information
was received here of the killing Sunday
evening of II. NJ. Sullivan, a prominent
lawyer at Oxford, Miss, and secretary of
the board of trustees of the state univer-
sity at that city, by j. NJ. Hewry, law pro-
fessor of the university. The difficulty be-
tween the two is said to have grown out of
differences which have existed, and still
exist, in the management of the univer-
sity. Recently there was row between
the trustees and professors, and the killing
was the result of the trouble that has been
brewing for many weeks. j. NJ. Hawry
is the son of the late Judge Hawry, who
was prominent attorney. He is 35 years
of age and man of family. The deceased
was about the same age, and also had a
family. Sullivan was shot through the alb
domen, but did not realize that he had been
strnck. He walked to his Office, quite a
distance, where he fell, and died at an
early hour yesterday morning.

MARQUETTE, Mich. Aug. 19.-The forest

of an advance to-day, owing to the
absence of wind. The fires appear to be
Oh all sides of the city, but they are at a
considerable distance from the city proper,
and there is no probability of injury
thereto. Several hot fires are burning in
Marquette township near a tract of pine
supposed to cover the greater part of sc. 900
acres and lying north of Dead river, but it
is thought that the fire will not spread
there. To the north and west of this
tract
THE FIRES ARE FIERCER,
and very close to the settlement near Col
linsville. If the great heat now prevailing
does not abate serious damage may be
done to the small lumbermen and
others in that vicinity. The
Lake Superior powder mills were
in danger at one time, but the flames were
finally driven back. At Presque Isle, and
near the city's new park, there are fires,
and these are the ones which cause the
uneasineSs in town. The forests are thor
oughly dried up, fruit and shade trees show
ing signs of dying in the city streets. News
tonight from along the Mackinaw road state
that fires are gaining in force along the
line approaching valuable property. At
Whitefish it was almost impossible for
trains to get through to-day. Along this
route there is great danger to settlers.

DETROIT, Aug. 10.-Specials say that
forest fires are raging terribly at and near
Traverse City, in the Northwestern part of
the state. The people are fighting the
flames desperately but are unable to make
any Roadway. Fences and underbrush are
being destroyed. The fires extend almost
continuously along the Central railroad
from Bay City to Macknaw. Much valu-
able timber has been destroyed and the end
is not yet. The fire extends over large
area, and rain is the only hope of extin-
gushing the flames.
