AFTER THE FIRE.


Business Mon Of Lynn, Mas, Preparing -
Rebuild-Revissd Figures a. to Losses.
LYNN, Mass, Nov. 29.-In proper
ton to its area and population, this
city Tuesday suffered a larger loss by
fire than any other city in Massachu-
sets during the present century. It be-
gan like the great fire in Boston in No
vember. 1872, in buildings that ap-
parently could be easily reached, but
as the flames spread they became so in
tense that for several hours human skill
to stay them was of no avail. It was
terrible spectacle as the fire progressed
and destroyed building after building,
and structures built with all modern
safeguards against fire could not resist
the tremendous volume of flames any
more than an ordinary wooden dwell
ing, from which thin line of smoke
would be visible at one moment while
few minutes later a pile of ashes
marked the spot where the building
stood.
Any one who watched the progress of
the great fire in Boston in 1872 could
not fail to notice, in many respects, a
repetition of it here. as the water line
formed one limit and the massing OF
engines at another point, after the con-
f1agration had ragged nearly six hours,
marked line where destruction ended,
| and valuable residences, which
were endangered, were saved.
In extent of territory the burnt
| district of Lynn is about the same as
that of Boston in 1872 and the loss was
relatively about the same. The prin-
cipal difference in the two fires was the
| burning of a large number of resi-
dences in Lynn, while in Boston the
loss was almost entirely confined to
| warehouses, etc.
It was pitiful sight here to witness
the breaking up of homes and the fran
tic efforts of occupants to save house,
hold treasures and other effects, most
of which were doomed to destruction,
because i'll many instances it was inn
possible to procure teams to remove
them.
The city is well patrolled by
the militia, six companies men
in all-being on duty. The men
are stationed at the entrances
to the ruined streets, barring all APP
proach to the burned district. Guards
are stationed at the stores that are but
P'i eie'iiJ OiOauCu ouG W ptOECuC CilcFCS
from taking what is left. No one is
permitted to pass the guards
! without a permit from the city
clerk. Through the Associated
Charities many families were fur
nished lodging in rooms hired at lodg-
ing and dwelling houses, and rations of
hot soup. crackers and bread are being
served to all in need of food. AS soon
as some plan for assistance can be de-
vised the work of providing for desti-
tute families will progress rapidly.
AS yet no fatalities have been re-
ported, which is a pleasing feature of
the terrible confagration.

WOOL GROWERS.
The Ohio Association Demands Protection
Tho Carpet Industry Denounced.

The Ohio Association Demands Protection
Tho Carpet Industry Denounced.
COLUMBUS, O., Nov. 29.-The Ohio
Wool Growers Association held a
meeting with a large attendance.
Among those present were David
Harpster, president; Hon. Columbus
Delano, president of the National Wool
Growers Association, and Judge Will
liam Lawrence. The association
adopted an address to the wool growers
| of the United States, and adopted a
resolution asking the National associ-
alton to take the proper steps to carry
out the suggestions made in the adj
dress. The essential features of the
address are:
In view of the imminent danger
| which threatens all industries of om
Nation, and especially the production
and manufacture of wool, the wool
growers of Ohio urge the necessity of
unity and activity in order to avert the
peril of free trade or free wool with
which we are now menaced. The wool
growers of Ohio advocate a protective
system. A tariff for revenue will not
secure protection. The result of the last
Presidential election was an emphat-
ic expression by a large majarity of the
people in favor of a comprehensive sys-
tenn embracing all our industries, in
Guiding the protection of wool by name.
If the Republican party in its legisla-
| tive or administrative departments
fails to comply with this expression, it
will secure the reproach Of insincerity
or of inability to perform its duty.
AS wool growers we ask for such
| legislation and such administration of
| existing laws as are required by the de-
| liberate promises made by the Repub-
lican party prior to the last Presidential
election.
| They denounce the injustice of allow
ing the carpet industry to damage the
wool industry by importing clothing
| wool under the false name of carpet
| wool.
The wool growers of the United
States are called upon to be fully repre-
scented in the National convention of
! wool growers to assemble in Washing
ton December 1, 1889. They are urged
to ask Congress to give the wool and
mutton industry protection to the full
extent of the most favored manufacture
| ing industry.

THE SANTA FE ROBBERY.

The Amount Secured BY the Raid ers About
$50, OOO-Joe Bunch's Gang Said to Be
the Robbers.
FORT WORTH, Tex, Nov. 27.-From
trainmen and passengers who were on
the A., T. & S. F. train robbed by high
waymen in the Chickasaw country
Monday night it is learned that large
sum of money was stolen from the
Wells Fargo Express Company.
It is stated on good authority that
two banks in Texas were expecting
S25, 900 each in currency from Kansas
City to pay for cotton. A. B. Smith,
cashier of the Merchants National
Bank here, said last night that in
the past few weeks his bank alone
had received $4,000 in gold and
currency from Kansas City and
sent to other banks. It is said
also that a contractor named Gus
Wilkie, now working for deep water
harbor at the mouth of the Brazos, had
large sum of money in transit from
Messrs. Farwell and Abner Taylor to
pay for work done and that this money
was taken. 1T is believed now that
the loss will amount to $4,000.
United States officers here say there
can be no doubt that the gang which
robbed the Missouri Pacific at Pryor's
creek on Saturday night committed
Sunday nights crime. They could
easily have taken the Missouri Pacific
to point not far away from Berwyn.
Joe Bunch is conceded to be the leader
of the gang, every robbery he has been
in being planned precisely as this was.
Four sets of officers are in pursuit
and the Government will be asked for
troops from Fort Sill to capture the
gang. which in the last six months has
made the Chickasaw and Apache coun-
try dark and bloody ground.

FRAUDS IN REAL ESTATE.
Extensive Swindles by Fredericksen 4
Co., of Chicago.

Extensive Swindles by Fredericksen &
Co., of Chicago.
CHICAGO, Nov. 27.-It is now said
that the amount involved in the alleged
fraudulent transactions of Frederick
sen & Co.. in connection with their
cashier, BidgOod, who was arrested
yesterday, will reach 81 ,OOO,OoO. The
charge is based on alleged crooked trans
actions in giving mortgages on lands to
which the Fredericksens had no title.
These mortgages are said to have been
pledged as security on loans. Fred
erickson & Co. have been doing large
business i'll Western railroad lands,
selling for the most part small tracts
of forty or fifty acres on the in
stallment plan, the purchasers usually
being immigrants or poor people
who wished to invest their earnings in
farms. After certain number of pay
mentS had been made Fredericksen
gave a deed, a mortgage on the land
being taken for the unpaid portion Of
the purchase money. This mortgage,
it is alleged, was then given as collat-
eral for loans or sold outright through
out the West. ~ T.

coMPIRoLLER.s REPORT.
Concerning sational Banks and SugEes
tiOns For Their ImPrOvement.

Concerning National Banks and Sugges-
lions For Their improvements.
WAsHINGTON. Nov. 27.-The forth
coming report of the Comptroller of
the Currency covers the year ended
October 81, 1889, at which time there
were in existence 1919 National banks
the largest number in operation
since the Inauguration of the system.
These associations possess an aggre-
gate capital of $40, ia, 1865. The last
reports of condition exhibit their re-
sources and liabilities September 80.
The number reporting at that time
was 800. Within the year 228 banks
were organized, having an aggregate
capital of s21 ,24O, 900. Thirty-six of the
new banks were organized in Texas
the largest number in any one State.
The State of Pennsylvania has now
the largest number of associations in
operation, but Massachusetts leads in
point of capital stock and New York
in respect to deposits and volume of
business. Wnnin The report year forty
one banks went into voluntary liquida-
ton and only two failed, leaving the
net additions to the system 168, as
against ninety last year.
Notwithstanding this increase inves-
tigation of the facts demonstrates that
the system has not kept pace with the
necessities of the people for increased
banking facilities. This is evidenced
by the marked increase in percentage
of State banks organized the last five
years as compared with the percentage
of the five years Immediately preced-
ing. This growing tendency to incor-
porate under the statutes of the several
States is not attributable to any change
in the law affecting either National OF
State institutions. but is charged di-
rectly to the fact that no profit results
to the banks by reason of the deposit
of bonds and issue of circulating notes.
1t is claimed in fact that an actual loss
results in many Western States and
Territories, where the interest is high
est and the banking facilities most
needed. 1t is demonstrated through
tables prepared by the Government
actuary that there is an actual loss re-
sulting to National banks by reason of
their being obliged to deposit bonds
and take out circulation wherever the
current rate of interest IS great
er than 4.76 per cent.
