Williams, seventeen year, Of age, and Cora
Young sat side by side AZ services in Antioch

PrrrsBuRoH, July 3i.-This afternoon fire
broke out in the Hungarian settlement in
the east end of Braddock and thiry-eigbt
houses were consumed. Among these were
some dozen of brick residences owned by
Americans, but the remaining were frame
houses of two stories and occupied by Hun
garian laborers. These thirty eight houses
contained ie5 families, embracing some $50
people. The flames were confined 10 the
acres Of closely packed buildings. The loss
is 100000, chiefly on buildings, as the for
eignes saved everything of value. The fire
was started by a Hungarian woman, who,
finding her bed inhabited, carried it out into
an alley and set FIRE to itand everything else
within two squares

MONTGOMERY, ALA, Aug. 3.-The State
election in Alabama will take place io-mor-

lively scramble. Governor Thomas Seay

Tns reports from all parts Of the State
indicate very healthy condition of the
Republican organization, and there is no
good reason why Mr.. Delamater and his
associates should not receive a full aver
age party msjority. This is the prelimi-
nary campaign to the general engage
ment ali along the line in 1892, and it
behooves Republicans to keep their best
font forward at this time.

Il will be seen that the total vote of seven
districts in South Carolina was less than that
of "A single district, the seventh, in Kansas,
and that one vote in South Carolina counted
as much as four and one-half votes in Kan
sas, one in Georgia more than as much as
three in Michigan, and one in Mississippi,
more than two and one-half in New Jersey.
These figures speak of suppressed vote in
the South as clearly as Congressman Hemp
hill did when he said We realize that if
the negro be allowed freely to vote and
have his vote honestly counted and return
ed we, the white people of South Carolina,
will be in the minority"
