FIRE IN MINNEAPOLIS.
a Blaze in the Koran Block Does DAM

$4,000.

Blaze i'm the Koran BLOCK.

A fire of evident incendiary origin burst
out in the block of Frank Koran, % Wash
ington avenue south, 4 little before IL
o'clock last night. The blaze flashed out
from the fourth story with singular bril-
lance, betokening the burning OF oil, and had
apparently gained great Roadway when the
department arrived. The large crowd that
had assembled expected to see the valuable
block consumed, but when four streams OF
water had been turned upon it the blaze
dropped. and in twenty minutes was en-
tirely out. The building is owned by Frank
j. Koran, who has a clothing establish
ment on the first floor. The second
floor is occupied by j. a. Burk's
Star photograph gallery, the third
by Flanagan u Sullivan, while the fourth
is sort of garnet. An examination of the
latter showed conclusively that oil had been
plenteously poured over the floor and walls
and established the theory that the origin
of the fire was incendiary. SO far as known
there is no clue to the mcendiaries OF their
motive.
THE DAMAGE
by fire will not exceed $500. The flames
zere confined to the fourth story, which
was unoccupied The front of the build
ing was damaged to some extent by heat
which caused part OF the cornice to break
off and drop into the street below. Horan's
stock of tailorS' goods suffered but little.
Everything was covered with oilcloth and no
water touched the goods In Brush's
branch photograph gallery on the second
floor the damage was pretty severe. as
water poured in from above and thoroughly
soaked everything in the way Of apparatus
The furniture had been removed TO the
rear, and the apparatus will soon be re-
paired. The carpets and remaining
fixtures were thoroughly drenched,
but 5000 will replace all. On
the third floor were Sullivan
& FIannagan's rooms which were drenched
with water There was considerable furni-
ture and numerous fixtures in the room and
the steady stream of water which poured
in created ruin and devastation. The loss
here is considerable, but is believed to
be fully covered by insurance. The total
damage by fire and water together will not
exceed So 900.

The water board last night devoted its
time to discussing the matter of sewerage
at the workhOuSe. This institution is at
Single creek, above the city limits. while
the board is considering the ACCESSIBILITY Of
establishing pumping station at Twen-
tieth avenue north, and the question was
whether the drainage and foul matter from
the workhouse would not contaminate the
city drinking water if connection were
made with the river. Aid. Sly and Gibson
OF the wOrkhouSe committee were before
the board, the former seeking advice
purely, and the latter advocating the sewer,
on the ground that the water
supply would not be injured.
Messrs. Foote and Farnham was radically
opposed to the sewer and Mr.. Davis was in
favor Of it, Mayor Ames gave it as his
opinion the sewer would not contaminate
the water, but thought the better plan
would be to force the refuse matter by
pump up to the high ground. Finally, by
Mr.. Foote'S motion, the board requested
council not to empty this refuse into the
river above the intake pipe.
AS the county treasurer cannot make the
annual settlement until after July 10, on
motion of MI. Foote the council was re-
quested to return the $50, 600 borrowed last
year.
II. L. Peterson. Jorgen 6 Kletzen and
John Fitzgibbon, plumbers. were summoned
to answer violations of the plumbing ordi-
nance. After severe lecture by Mr. Foote
they were dismissed, with the warning that
at the next violation their licenses would be
revoked.

SUNDAY SHA WING
Decided Not to BE a work of Neces-

The test case which was to decide the
validity of the Sunday clause OF the penal
code as applied to the keeping open of
barber shops on Sunday was tried in the
municipal court yesterday. Several BARRIERS
employed in the shop of Scheig & Scheig at
the West hotel were arrested, and by stipu-
lation one case was made the test, No de-
NAL was made of the fact that the shop was
kept open on Sunday and the only point
necessity to shave on Sunday. Mr.. Scheig
gave it as his opinion that it was, and
stated that it was impossible for
great many to get shaved
Saturday night. The shops could not
accommodate them if they did; besides,
many strangers arrive in the city Sunday
morning. Col. John T. West stated that
he considered it work of necessity. If
he had to miss a shave or his breakfast he
would forego the pleasure of eating. He
considered it would be a great injury to his
hotel business if the shops were closed on
Sundays. Several BARRIERS testified they
did not want to work on the Sabbath, and
upon being asked why, one answered eve
want to go to church." Another said,

Wilson, the defendants counsel. Judge
Mahoney instructed the jury simply to de-
eide whether in their Judgment. from the
testimony given, Sunday shaving was
necessary. The jury evidently thought not
and returned verdict to that effect shortly.

PROVIDENCE, R. l., June 24.-To-day
was the second day of the celebration of
the 250th anniversary of the founding of
the city. Business was entirely suspended
and it seemed as if the entire population of
10000 and nearly as many more from out
of town were in the streets. To-day's
program began with national salute of
thirty eight guns at o'clock, following
which the church bells were rung, and a
fife and drum band gave a
concert. The big procession began
to move at 10 o'clock in seven
divisions. The first was made up of var
ious Rhode Island, Connecticut, Massachu-
sets and New York military commands,
the second of Grand Army posts, the third
of fire engine companies. the fourth of
knights OF Pythias, Odd Fellows and Free
Masons, the fifth of Scotch Clansmen, the
sixth of temperance organizations, and the
seventh of French societies and chariots
representing scenes from the early history
of Rhode Island. Carriages containing
clergymen of the state and the orators of
the day brought up the rear. 1t is estimated
that $50, 600 people viewed the procession.

The Augustana synod.

Yesterday was midsummer or John the
Baptist's day, and was appropriately cele-
brated by the Augustana synod, no business
being transacted. Rev. J. Telleen of San
Francisco preached upon What Has Chris
tianity Done for the World?" in which he re-
ferred to the so-called labor problem, his
solution being that servants should act to-
wards their master as children towards their
parents-the masters should treat their SER
wants as chilren. In the afternoon the usual
discussion was omitted and q 'Inissionfest'
was held, at which addresses were delivered
by Rev. J. Withstand on home missions, and
by Rev. E. M. EriKson on foreign missions.
Rev. J. A. Krantz and Rev. L. G.. Abraham
son also spoke upon missionary work in Utah.
In the evening regular services were held.

A Cinder From the Chicago Fire.

Chicago News.
Emory Storrs had Spartan way of ex-
pressing himself when some pretension in
vited his contempt. He hated shams and
could expose the inward meanness of deceit
in manner forcble if not always ele-
CANT. The fund that was placed at the
disposal of the relief committee after
the fire had many claimants whose de-
mands were out of proportion to their
losses, and who sought from fraudulent
computations to build fortunes out of the
charity Of their countrymen. One law
firm, which no one had ever heard of be-
fore, had demanded of the committee
$25, 900. They admitted they had neither
furniture or library to approximate that
figure. but had lost. they said, vast lot of
valuable Briefs the accumulation of their
professional lifetimes. The committee de-
INJURED and Storrs heard of the claim. His
remark: Good -. They'd better throw
in an inkstand and call it million" effect
ually broke its back.

WONDERFULLY NATURAL"
The Chief OF i.Oganss staff Knspects
the Panorama.

the Panorama.
Col. John r. Hotaling of Huron, Oak,
who was chief of Logan's staff at the battle
of Atlanta, yesterday arrived in the city
and was shown the panorama of the
famous battle that is now being placed in
position. The veteran was found yester
day morning sitting in his shirt sleeves
eagerly devourings the stirring scenes.
so graphically depicted on the canvass.
His deep interest almost amounted to eX-
element as he pointed out the various 10
cations with which he was familiar and
related the incidents of the fight that were
recalled to his mind.
Its wonderful, wonderful!!" he eX-
claimed. 1T all comes back to me like a
dream. AT o'clock on the morning of the
22d Gen. Logan sent me to Morgan
L. Smith to warn him of the approach of the
enemy. A confederate colonel captured the
day before had given US warning. You see
that little white cottage there away Off tow
ards Atlanta? Well, right there / saw the
rebels, and we sfel back. 1t got so smoky
there from the firing that their second line
almost walked over US. Jimmie Dutch, now
secretary of the Chicago board of trade
was there with me. I'll bet he re-
members that little surprise party.
Right near those trees on the hillside over
yonder, 1 first heard old Mercer swearing at
his troops in Dutch. 1 couldn't see anybody
and it was actually relief to hear him cuss.
So the colonel went on from one incident
to another, telling how Sprague's gallant
brigade saved Sherman's wagon train, how
Dodge managed to hold the rebs in check at
another point, how Hardee placed his men
when he thought he had got in the rear of
Sherman's army, and various other points
of the struggle to hold Bald Hill.
Theodore r. Davis, the war correspond
ent of Harper's Weekly, was also present
and the two comrades were comparing notes
from their recollections in very animated
way. The work of preparing the fore
ground of the panorama is now well in
hand, and everything will be in readiness
for the opening Oh Monday.

Senator Zach Chandler had no love for
Great Britain. Soon after the civil war he
was one day conversing with an English
man about American affairs, and he quite
shocked Mr.. Bull by the irreverent manner
in which he alluded to interna-
tional affairs. ''How? You don't mean
that the sword of England would not
have turned the scale?" cried the amazed
Mr.. Bull. ''Whv, look here" retorted
the senator, chow large an army has Eng
land got, anyhow? How many troops
could England put into the field?" per
haps sixty thousand regulars" Sixty
thousand! Why, General Grant in one
battle at the Wilderness killed sixty thous-
and men in four days, sir, and i'll week
we filled the ranks full again. If the
whole British army had been there they
would have hindered one of our half dozen
armies Just four days; that's all, sir"
