Thomas FoY, he who is ''not much
on public sphakin', but for honesty,
integrity and votin' the Dimmycratic
ticket has but dom few akels and no
supariors," is again before the Legis-
lature with a relief bill. Foy was
Assessor of this county away back in
early times. He claims that in 1868,
when Assessor of this county, the
safe was robbed and he was COM
pelled to make good large sum of
money. That in 1869 the Legislature
passed a relief bill, directing that the
sum of $500 be refunded to him,
but that the County Commissioners
refused to refund on the ground that
there was no provision of law em-
powering them to draw the warrant
He now asks that the Legislature
pass relief measure directing the
Treasurer of this county to pay hin
the sum of $5,655 (sl,So0, with inteI'
est 10 date). This bill was handed tc
J. A. Bruuer, member of the House
from this county. Mr.. Bruner very
properly refused to introduce the bll
until thoroughly informed as to th'
merits of his case. Officials of thi
county have probed INTO the affair
and say emphatically that Bols'
county does not owe Mr.. Foy one
cent, and will fight the bill will
stubborn facts. Mr.. Bruner refused
TO introduce the bill, on being in
formed as to its merits, or lack o
merits. The bill was introduced by K
H. Davis, of Oneida. Now wei
prophecy, Mr.. Thomas Foy, that you'll
not get that sum, "me boy" and tha
your bill for big relief, will suddenl,
come to grief.

able to do 80 literally. But Quay,
OF Pennsylvania, and Malone are
going to distribute bags OF Doodle

the Democrats cannot afford to be
stingy. Organization costs money
The Democrats will have to raise a
good deal of money. Asgood deal
will be needed for strictly legti'
mate expenses-the only expenses
10 be eOnsidered-and our men OF
means should contribute cheerlully
and not make the chairman pay IL

TENEMENT HOUSE TRAGEDY.
NINE LIVES LOST IN A PIRE-A
WALL FROM AG0NIZED W0.
MEN AND CHILDREN.

NEW YORK. Aug. 10.-Early
this morning fire broke out In the
kitchen of a restaurant on the
store floor of the big five store
tenement at 800 Seventh avenue,
Nine of the sixty.Odd occupants OF
the house lost their lives, and II Ia
great wonder that many more
did not perish.
The building was occupied by
thirteen families, who have been
made temporarily homeless by Are.
The flames did not do very much
damage IN the various apartments,
but burned out their strength 10
the Railways. The pecuniary loss
will not amount TO more than
10000. The fire originated IN the
rear of John Snydors restaurant
at an hour when all the people in
the house we're sleeping soundly.--
Just how the fire started is yet q
mystery, but as the restaurants
cook is missing 1t Ia fair to persume
that the accident occurred while
be was making u fire IN the big
range. The awful speed with
which the flames swept up through
the building suggests the use OF
kerosene by the cook.
The fire escapes leading from the
burning building to the as yet un'
touched tenement next door we're
speedily filled up with halt'nAked
people. In the meantime alarms
had been sent out aud the fire de-
partment were soon at work on the
flames aud assisting the frightened
inmates. The flames were ex'
tlnguished easily enough by the
bremen, aud all the people on the
Dire escapes were safely landed
Not one person escaped down the
stairway, and the names oil the
few who tried it are found among
tho Iaad
