Der of others fell on the tracks and were

DURHAM,S BIG blaze.
The Noted Tobacco Manufacturing
Town of North Carolina Visited
by a S3OO,OOO Fire.

Town of North Carolina Visited
by n S3OO.OOO Fire.
RALEIGH. n. c.. Nov. ia fire orig
mated at Durham at 2 a. m. in the grocery
store of r. r. Atwater. and burned large
part of the business portion of the town.
The loss is $500. 900. insurance $3.50, 900.
The Durham fire originated at a. m.
from some unknown cause, in the store of
Atwood A. Grover. 1t soon caught the
great tobacco warehouses of E. j. Parrish
in the rear and consumed that entire square,
comprising thirteen buildings. all Of brick.
1t then crossed to the next square on the
north and destroyed the houses of Umstead
& Co. and Parrish & Co. and the Durham
bank. The fine Methodist church was in
imminent danger, when the wind suddenly
changed and the fire turned eastward and
on the third block consumed the residence
of Ed Lyon. After burning about four
hours the fire went out, rather from lack
of material to consume than from
any effective control, since there was no
adequate supply of water with which to
check its progress. No one was injured.
The loss in tobacco amounts to 1,500, 600
pounds. There were roo hogshead of it in
Parish's warehouse alone, besides that in
Umsteads and in the various storage
houses. Immense Quantities were removed
into the adjacent streets, but could not be
saved. The time-lOck on the vault in the
bank of Durham was set for 9 a. m., and
the banks valuables, therefore could not be
reached. All the mail matter in the post
office was saved. The Tobacco Plant
(newspaper) office was destroyed. The
mills and factories were NOT in that part of
the town and are not involved. Contracts
for rebuilding have already been made
The insurance, as far as reported, is as
follows: Parrish q Co., OIL their warehouses
and contents, $93 200; Umstead & Co.,
SS, S25; Jacob Levi. dry goods, $50, 900;
A. NJ. Rigsbee, store and stock, SIS. 500;
Others in the aggregate S 2.S25. mostly in
small amounts. making grand total of a
little more than 100000. The total loss
of property will not be less than $500, 900.

series of articles in his paper. As the Re
publican has a circulation of about 5000.
and not more than 500 are sent out of this
city into Virginia, the task will be hercu-
lean for the editor to carry Virginia over to
the Republican party in 1888. especially if
he continues to write ''Breakfast-table
Letter" once week. Virginia is not suf-
fering for redemption, justification, nor
sanctifcation. But. when she gets ready
to go to the mourner's bench. she will
probably need abIer and more inspired
pulpit eloquence than can be dispensed
from the Repuhlican rOstrum.
