TOWN PARTIALLY
Destroyed :; Fincendiary Fire
No Chew to the Fiend Who
Applied the Torch.
ESPECIAL TO rHK ApPKALI


NEw ORLEANS, La, August PA
Times Democrat Bay ou Sara, La, special
says; Toe fiendish act OF an incendiary
played cad havoc with a large portion
Of the upper town Of Bayou Sara at
O'Clock this morning. TIE torch was
applied on the outside of the rear end
OF Freyhsn & Co.'s mammoth estab-
lishment, near the Office. In a few
moments the largo building was
a mass Of flames and was soon a total
loss, only about $40 worth OF -four and
meal being saved. The fire soon
spread to the adjoining buildings and
stores and was not controlled until it
had consumed about $l1S,000 worth of
valuab g property and rendered several
families homeless. A rough estimate
OF the loss 10 as follows;
TIE LOSSES.
Treyhsn & Co., stock and buildings,
100000, insurance $4,000; N. Bras
seux, residence and store, 5000, in
surance 5000; Jake Michel $500, in
eurance $1,000; Kilbourne & Co., drug
gists, goods sill saved but badly dam
aged; Mrs. Deutschland, millinery,
goods all saved; B. Teutsch, stock
$500, insurance $4,000; VIM. Town,
residence and sores $1,000, insurance
$ll00; Mrs. L. Well, three stores
$4,000, insurance $500; W. H. Taylor,
drugs, loss about 500. Treyhan d
Co. did large supply business and
planters will suffer greatly by this ca
lamity. The firm contemplate the
erection Of anolhsr store on the old
site at once. There is no clew as yet
to the villain who annliPd the torch.

when Will E. STEELE came to their aid and
agreed to furnish large portion of the
S22, 900 necessary to purchase it. He held
conference with several of the prominent
church workers, and there the matter was
looked upon as settled. There was
great rejoicing among the colored church
going people then, and the pros
pect OF having church of their very own
was talked over and discussed dozen times
day. Time ran Oh and people began to
wonder why the church was not turned
over to Mr.. Plummer as pastor. A little
inquiry revealed state of things which cast
damper upon the ardent feelings of many
and caused them to think that they would
have 0 church.
When negotiations were pending, Mr..
Piummer it is charged, went around among
some of the brethren, and in an unmistak-
able manner let it be known that he was
going to stand at the head of the movement.
if there was going to be any head, and in
an offensive way gave out that he did not
think things were running in a straight
manner. This coming to the ears of Mr..

into the scheme if Mr.. Plummer was going
| to interfere. He has SO stated in the pres
ence of the pastor Of the German NJ. 3.

POLITICAL. GOSSIP.

The Newsletter of to-day will contain the
following political sensation under st. Paul
date line: a scrap OF suppressed copy found
in front of the Dispatch office to-day reveals
political sensation which is creating con-
siderable discussion on the streets here. The
writer claims to have unearthed conspiracy
among prominent Twin City Democrats to
subsidiZe the Minneapolis Tribune and Jour
nal in the interest of DR.. Ames for governor.
The plan arranged is for these papers to
roast the mayor of Minneapolis his admins
tration, police force, etc., and scaudalize the
city and community in such a way as to pro-
yoke revulsion of feeling among decent Re-
publicans and make votes for Ames. The
course of the Tribune and Journal has been
such as to make this plan feasible and luil
any suspicious that may ARISE as to the
motives of these papers. The Democrats
here do not deny the charges very strenu-
eusly, but there is not a shadow of proof thus
far to sustain any theory OF bribery.
A News Letter reporter hunted up the
mayor last evening ana asked him what he
thought of this strange rumor. The mayor

THE YACHT REGATTA
At II o'clock yesterday morning the
yachts of the Minnetonka Yacht club were
signaled to get under way from the starting
buoy at Point Lookout. The course was
from Point Lookout to buoy in CRYSTAL
bay, from thence to a buoy opposite the
Hotel st, Louis, and back again to the
starting point. This triangular course was
sailed twice over, and the distance was
reckoned at ten miles. The judges, j. A.
Ockerson, c. NJ. Hardenburg and
George Caran, steamed over the
course in the Hebe and
and as the wind was fair and the sea cut up
in chop waves, the view was all that could be
desired. There were entered the sloops
Mary Lee, Idlewild, Mermaid. Swallow,
Pearl and Bonita, and the catboats Ida,
Eleanor, Curlew. Marchioness, Lizzie Gill,
Princess and Phyllis. The first boat over the
line was the Phyllis at 11:0S:22, followed
by the Marchioness. who dropped out of the
race. There was nothing particular excit-
ing in the race, all the boats being handled
well. The Pearl won in the sloop class in
1:51:12, and the Ida, a catboat, won in
1:5S:4S. Below is given the official time.

A TITLE CLOUD REMOVED.
Case isa which The Name Of AN Ad.
tom was TranspOsed.

ton was Trans posed.
Judge Rea has filed decision in the case
of Lucas Kels against Ferdinand Hellrich,
which will be of considerable interest to
residents of North Minneapolis, owing to
the fact that the addition referred to is a
large one and the decision quiets. within it,
many titles hitherto held to be cloudy.
Kells sued Hellrich to obtain title to lots
and 9, in block p of Case and others SUBJ
division of blocks, in Case 81 Moore's adj
dition to Minneapolis. When the case was
called for trial the plaintiff failed to appear.
The defendant proved his title to the prop
erty, the testimony disclosing that the land
in question lay in Case q MOore'S addition,
while the sherlff's deed under execution
sale, under judgment of Young and others
against Moore, and under which defendant
held in his chain of title, described the land
as in Moore & Cases addition.
1t was. however, shown that
there never had been any such adj
dition as Moore IL Cases" addition; that
the land comprising Cease & Moore's" addi-
ton was at the time of making plat of the
same. owned by Emanuel Case, and the
Judgment debtor in such execution sale,
Alexander Moore; that at the time Of
docketing the Judgment of Archibald Young
and others against the said Moore i'll Hen
nepin county, said Moore owned the block
"a, in Case & Moore's addition, of which
said land was a part, and that such sale was
made under lien existing at the time of
such docketing; that Alexander Moore
could have owned no other land to which
such description could have applied, ex-
cepting the land in question; that reference
in conveyances of lands in Case q Moore's
addition had heen frenuently made To if as
if in Moore & Cases addition; that the
evidence shows that the said sheriff
deed evidently intended to refer to
block %, in Case & Moore's addition.
was sufficient i'll its reference to convey
such land. 1t appears to the judge to be a
case of latent ambiguity, when it is COM
petent to rise and explain such ambiguity
by extrinsic testimony, and in his findings
the judge stated that the plaintiff has no
right title or interest in or to the land, and
confirmed the ownership by Mr.. Hellrich.
