TWO HOUSES RuRN 90.
Two Buildings on East Water Street
Badly Damaged by Fire To-Day.

Two Buildings on East Water street
Badly Damaged by Fire To-Day.
An alarm of fire was struck from box
No 81 at the P w. & B. railroad station,
at 10 As o'clock this morning and the
Fire Department responded. The alarm
was caused by fire in the houses of Nos.
LOT aud 1909 Water street, which have the
same numbers for the corresponding
houses ON Front street. The houses run
through from one street to the other.
The fire started in No. 107. formerly
the old Commercial House, and spread to
the other house. The fire appeared first
on the roof. and was discovered by one of
the habitues of the house, who imme-
diately ran to the P w. & B. station
and struck the alarm. The engines came
upon the scene In few moments, but 1t
WAS some time before a stream could be
put on owing to the inconvenient po-
sition of the houses When at last a
stream was got on the burning building
the Ere had gained much headway.
The Fire Department, however. had
the fire under control from the start and
in about three-fourths of an hour sue.
ceeded in extinguishing the flames.
Much amusement was given TO the
spectators by the manner in which the
habitues Of the place attempted to
escape. Several of them had not wholly
succeeded in getting their clothing In
the proper position on their persons.
The buildings were owned by Mrs.
Bayha, sister of Nicholas Jenny, who
acted as agent for the owner. The pro
prietor Of the houses was man known
as Garaghy.
The cause of the Are was defective
fiue. The fire was confined to the upper
stories and the loss will be covered BY
5000. Fully insured.
Trains on the p, w. & B. and w. & N.
railroad were delayed about three
quarters Of on hour on account of the
fire. The cars on the street railway were
also stopped.

THE CASE TO &c APPEALED.

The Case of the National Banks va. the
State to Go Before the supreme Court
Benjamin Nields, counsel for the ma
tional banks OF this state, in the case OF
the banks vs.. the state, which was de-
eided by Judge McKennan in favor OF
the state. said this morning TO an EVEN
ING JOURNAL reporter, that the case will
be appealed to the Supreme Court of the
United States.
The Legislature passed an act on April
II, 1885, appointing Levi G. Bird, coun-
sci for the state, and directing him 10
collect the taxes due from tina banks.
The Legislature on March 10, 1889 ap-
pointed Andrew f. Sanborn and Attor-
ney General John Biggs to assist Mr..
Bird The act under which they were
appointed, allowed them fee of Is per
ceatum of the amount collected. or
II the case turned on the act
of the General Assembly of March
ID, 1888, and the court deciding that the
tax on bank stock repealed, they were
to receive 25 per centum of the amount
collected. The law of 1888 directed the
state treasurer to collect no taxes from
the banks while the suit was going on.
The unpaid taxes of the banks amount
to nearly $175,0 900. The fees Of counsel
will, therefore, be about $25, 900, if the
Supreme Court sustains the decision of
the Di trict Court. If the Supreme
Court decides in favor of the complain
ants the counsel will not receive any
fee
The case is one of both unusual mag
nitude and interest, both to the stock
holders in the bank and outside persons.
II the decision is defeated the stockhold-
ers Of the banks will be saved the assess.
nent for taxes and they will push the
case
This case was within the Jurisdiction
ofJudge Leonard E, Wales, but he could
not try il on account of his relation to
many stockholders. Judge McKennan's
decision was q short one, but to the
point and perfectly clear.
