FURIOUS FIRES.

Forty Acres Burned Over at Chicago-Great
Fire at Seneca Fails, \. Y.
CHICAGO, July S1.-Fire. supposed to
have originated from a spark from a
locomotive, started about seven o'clock
last evening in the lumber yards just
north Of the mouth of the Chicago river
and famed by heavy breeze it spread
rapidly, burning over nearly forty acres
before it was subdued.
At $50 p. m. the indications were that
the fire might be one of the most extern
sive that has occurred in Chicago since
the destruction of the most valuable
part of the city in October, 1871. 1t be-
gan on the docks Of Fitzsimmons &
Cornell, contractors, and rapidly spread
to the lumber yards OF E. E. Aver & Co
and E. E. Whitcomb & Co.
All about the locality where the
flames started are vast stretches of val
liable lumber piles and manufacturing
establishments. The region is known
as the north pier and is situated on the
north side of the river, not more than a
Dearborn. the Indian trading post that
marked the beginning of Chicago's COM
mercial Importance. A wilderness Of
ships and wharves rendered the place al
most inaccessible for fire engines, but
the fire boats provided by the city
for Just such an emergency remedied
the difficulty in measure. The scene
of the fire is penetrat ted by tracks Of the
Chicago & Northwestern railway, which
crosses the river near by for junction
with the Illinois Central and the east
ern trunk lines Skirting the North
western tracks are the lumber yards Of
the Peshtigo Company and II. Paencke
& Co.
1t is estimated that the total loss will
exceed $500. 900. The principal losers
are: Aver & Co., S142,O 900, partly in
sured; Fitzsimmons & Council. $40, OO0.
no insurance; Chicago & Northwestern
railway, SIS, 900. on forty cars, and the
city of Chicago, $40. 600.
THE FIRE AT SENECA FALLS
SENECA FALLS, n. ". July 3l.-The
Pew building, against the erection Of
which three or four years ago earnest
protest was made, fulfilled it's mission
as fire trap yesterday morning, and it is
feared has also proven death trap.
Shortly after three o'clock the build
ing, which was directly opposite HOag's
Opera House on Fall street, was discOv-
cred to be burning in Sutherland &
Squire's restaurant In a few minutes
the entire structure was on fire. At
seven o'clock the commercial part Of
the town was in ashes or in flames.
All three newspapers were burned ont
and the telephone service suspended
Careful estimates by insurance men
and others place the loss at between
$500, 900 and 500. 600. with insurance
amounting to only 100000 The heav-
lest individual loss is that Of the
Thomas-Houston Electric Company
$780, 600, with but $40. 0O0insurAnee.

New Mexico for Homeseekers.

Over 100000 acres of government land is
yet vacant in New Mexico subject to entry un-
der presumption, homestead, timber-culture
and desert land laws. Much of this is pro-
duetive agricultural land, capable of cultiva-
ton without irrigation. The market for farm
products is good. Prices for same are 80 per
cent to 70 per cent higher than in states east
of the Rockies. For successful and profitable
fruit growing the irrigated valleys of New
Mexico cannot be surpassed. The climate is
iDvigorating and free from malaria. Extremes
of heat and cold are not severe. New Mexico
is reached directly via Santa Fe route. For

Cutting ut KIOMa.

Claude SnOddy, son of Col. w. w. S.
Snoddy, was quite seriously cut in the
arms and shoulders at Kiowa, last Fri
day night by Louis DOwntain, farmer
living northwest of Kiowa. 1t appears
that Claude used to teach school in that
neighborhood and became acquainted
with the family. AT the ball, at KIo-
wa, Friday night, young Snoddy was
with Miss DOwntain, daughter of his
assailant and the Young lady complain
to go down to her uncle's, DR.. Down
tains, young Snoddy accompanied her.
On their return, an hour later, they
were met by Mr.. Downtain who was
opposed to his daughter going with
Snoddy, who at once proceeded to at
tack the young man with knife, cut
ting his coat over the breast and in the
back. Snoddy knocked him down and
while he was down he cut Snoddy sew
eral times in the arm and shoulder and
getting up renewed the attack. The
worst cut severed the muscles of the
right arm between the elbow and
shoulder Ed Julian and others inter-
fered and separated the combatants
and the wounded man was turned over
| to DIR. Cloud who dressed his wounds.
Claude was taken home Sunday even
ing by his father who lives seven miles
south OF this place: Il is not believed
that prosecutions will follow. 1t is
said that Mr.. Downtain was under the
influence of liquor, and that he af-
forwards claimed that he did not know
what ae wee dong when he cut the
! young mas.
