An ALARM OF FIRE.
Lamp Expiodes In q Boarding House,

A Lamp Expiodes In q boarding House.
Causing Great Excitement.
The sound OF the fire bell, at
o'clock last evening sent thrill OF
alarm through the entire city. In less
time than il takes to write it, over two
thousand people were rushing To the
scene OF action, ready TO meet any
emergency which might be pre-.
sented. Owing to the prompt and of
ticient work OF the fire department,
a serious calamity was ayerted and but
little damage done. As the fire de.
partment arrived flames were issuing
from the front of Mr.. X. W. For.
est's building just back of the N. p.
freight house on Railroad avenue, the
upper part of which is occupied by f..
II. Childs, contractor and jobber
in windmills and pumping, and the
lower story is used in connection
with the Russ house for sleeping
rooms. After the flames had been ex-
tinguished, careful investigation
was made 70 ascertain the cause. A
few moments search relieved the
"fre bug' from all suspicion and
traced the cause to an exploded lamp
in the hallway on the first floor. Sew
eral persons were sleeping in the
rooms on this floor. One OF the
occupants was aroused by the
cry Of fire and ut once threw
pail of water on the burning
oil which put out the fire on that floor,
but as the flames had penetrated into
the partition wall all efforts TO put out
the fire were futile until the fire de-
partment arrived and cut through the
walls.
A few minutes delay might have
caused frightlul destruction of prop
erty. Just across the street stands
the Northern Pacific's freight house
filled with merchandise. At the
right stands the Russ house crowded
with occupants, and just below the
Grand Pacific hotel, which is nearly
completed. "a stitch in time saves
nine"

The representatives Of the local
press meet this evening to hear the re-
pert of the finance committee, and
take such further steps towards pro-
viding for the press convention to
meet here on Tuesday next, rs the cir
cumstance requires.
The soliciting committee on finance
has been active, and no doubt per-
formed good work during the past
three days. The chairman has tele-
graphic advices that over 100 news
papers in this territory will be repre-
sented at the convention.
Free transportation has been ex
tended to them by the Northern Pa
cifc, and Mr.. A. ID. Charlton, the gen.
inl general passenger agent OF that
company in Porsland, will accompany
the expedition to this city.
1t is expected that the association
will visit the accessible parts OF the
surrounding country, including Pa
louise valley and C1ur d'Alene, and
many Of them, no doubt, will do SO il
their attention is not too much occu-
pied with their literary legislation.
A circular Issued by G. w. Hobart
chairman of the executive committee,
says; "The train carrying the mem
bers will leave Tacoma ut s 80 o'clock

the next morning about 9 o'clock.
, 1888-10-04

following named gentlemen, who
with others went up to Tacoma on
the noon boat TO offer Mr.. Haines
any support In their power, qualified
as bondsmen. Mr.. Robert Moran,
Mr.. Leigh Hunt, Mr.. A. B. Stewart,
Mr.. Geo B. Adair, Mr.. Otto Ranke,
Mr.. II. G.. Struve, Mr.. Maurice Me-
Micken, Mr.. John ii. McGraw.
AT Tacoma Mr.. Haines was the
recipient of innumerable sympa-
thetic messages. There, as at
Seattle, the political motive OF the
arrest seemed fully understood by
the public, and Its effect was dis.
counted in advance. Mr.. Haines
with his irisnds, returned to Seattle
by the night boat arriving at $3.50
O'Clock. IL is his intention to start
for Buffalo on Monday morning
next. He will demand an i'm
mediate trial, and expresses alb
sOiute confidence us to the result.
POLITICAL TRICK.
Circumst noes demonstrating the po'
litical and personal motives OF this
arrest run through the whole proceed
ings. The doubtful and slender con-
nection between Mr.. Haines and the
crime of Ogdensburg was as well
known in August rs at the present
time, but at that time Mr.. Haines was
not the chairman OF the territorial
republican committee. His election
to that position is the circumstance to
which must be credited all the proceed
ings which are designed to injure him
before the community.
There Is, OF course, not the slightest
chance of his conviction. This is not
expected; but it is hoped to prolong
the proceedings and to make a scan
dial designed for effect in the coming
territorial election. The zeal of at
torney White, with bis malicious and
cruel scheme as above outlined ia
fact Of it.elt tending to show the
motive back Of this arrest
| Another significant fact is in con-
nection with tho indictment as found
at Buffalo. While MIR. Haines is sub
| jectod to humiliation, injury ana IN
suit upon the merest shadow OF con-
nection with a crime, two democratic
officials OF Ogdensburg-Lytle and
Conf. ky, the actual perpetrators OF
the offence, have not even been in
| diCted The distinction here shown is
clearly IA discrimination against the
republican party official ON the one
hand, aud democratic petty office
| holders on the Othor.
The people Of Seattle are entirely
familiar with Mr. Haines' connection
with the celebrated Gardner SNUG
Cling case. This connection grew out
OF his professional relations to it as u
criminal lawyer.
In this instance as in scores OF other
instances, Mr.. Haines was called upon
to defend "A man charged with "A crime
aud, in doing this, he only did what Is
regular and entirely legitimate. 1t is
absurd to suppose that high profes'
sional standing, gained by years OF in.
dustry and integrity in professional
life, has been prostituted and jeopar'
died by n bungling attempt ut the
pettifogger's trick OF suppressing ma
terial evidence.
AT Seattle, where Mr.. Haines is
thoroughly well known, nobody, for a
moment regards the charge rs entail.
ing anything more serious for MIR.
Haines than the annoyance and ex-
pense of IA forced journey across the
continent.
