GOyERNoR Hills DOUBTFUL TRIUMPH.
THE DEMOCRATIC STATE COMMITTEE ORGANIZED
WIFI z MURPHY, ", CHAIRMAN


Tho Democratic State Committee has formally or
ranlzcd at the Hoffman House last night with Edward
Murphy IT, of New York, chairman His reelection was
unanimous D. Cady Herrlck, the Administration
candidate withdrew entirely leaving the field clear TO
Murphy The other officials chosen wero Cord Meyer
tr of Queens County, secretary, in place OF Hiiis
lieutenant Judge Muller; and George Weed, treasurer
in place Of ex-Msyor Cooper. Charles r. De Frccst
was reelected clerk.
Murphy was Hill's candidate, but his election Is
considered more OF triumph for himself than for the
Governor The reason OF this upon the fact that
the willy Trojan camo TO terms With the Cleveland
faction 1t Is known that he visited Washington
within the last few days, and while there gave the
President to understand that he would not let his past
fondness for Hill lead him astray any longer III
other words he capitulatcd, receiving In rcaIrn as
surances of abundant reward lie would claim this
for the reason that he IL power In practical poltcs
and a worker whose services would be missed when
II Is desirable TO get out large gravctard' vote
This fact makes Hills friends uneasy They arc In
cned indulge in hopes Of the Governors reelection
but they know Murphy too well to trust him I'm
plcltly.
Tammany had great deal to say in the meeting
and before It, The members from the wigwam refused
to have Herrck any terms, and this was the great
element in Murphy's favor. Sheriff Grant presided.
Herrick buried his disappointment and proposed Muir

then Mr. Maxwell state superintendent Of Insurance,

AN ELECTRIC LIGHT STATION
BUaNED.
HALEY News Miner, Dec. Oh.

HALEY News Miner Dec. 9sh-
Last evening, between the hours Of
eight and nine o'clock the alarm Of
FIRE was sounded, and rush was
made for the scene Of action, 1t the
old electric light station on Bullion
street. Tbs hose company got on
deck Immediately, and soon had :
stream Of water playing with good ef-
feet.
1t WAS but few seconds from the
time of the first alarm before the
building was enveloped in flames. Its
interior, being in many places, espe-
cially on the floor, saturated with ma
chine oil, caused the flames to spread
with remarkable rapidity. But the
fire had gained such headway that it
could not be extinguished until near
ly all the wood work was either burn
ed or ruined.
Neighboring business houses were
protected BY the use of buckets and
small hose. For time the FIRE was
a hot one, and had there been high
wind, = serious confagration would
have resulted.
The origin of the FIRE was short
circuit-the connection of a positive
and negative wire-which must have
existed at or near the switch. When
the old plant was shut down upon
starting up the new one, the switch
had been tied up with string. 1t is
supposed that from some unknown
cause this switch fell down, thus Gre
asing the short circuit
The dynamo is total wreck, while
the engine may not be badly injured,
although an examination by daylight
will reveal It's real damage.
Mr.. Fluke, the line-man who ar
rived yesterday to work for the com
pany, lost suit of clothes and some
tools, which he had temporarily left
in the building. There were other
tools and implements that are ruined.
There was no insurance, and the
loss, which is probably in the neigh
borhood of 5000, will be total.
It was fortunate for the town that
the circumstances against the spread
OF FIRE were favorable.

Bile, and all caused by almost con-
slant use of the ear trumpet and
speaking tube The left corner OF
his mouth is getting up under his ear,
and his once beautiful right has
grown till it appears somewhat like an
under done mince pie with hole in
the center. Wouldn't it be well for
the superintendent of the telephone
company to issue orders prohibiting
whisky drinkers from using the tele-
phone? That such an order should
be enforced is simply this: By the
time the breath of one of these indi-
yiduals gets here it is cold, and whew
