A Great CONFEDERATION in London

LONDON, Dec. 3G.-A terrific confagra-
ton is now q p. M raging in this city.
The scene of the fire is Queen Victoria and
Thames streets, near Blackfriars bridge.
Numerous warehouses are blazing. London
seems destined to suffer one of the largest.
most destructive fires in it's history of
recent years.
Fourteen fire engines were soon upon the
spot. The fremen did their utmost. but
with little success, to check the course of
the flames. A high wind blowing mate
| rally added to the fury of the flames.
while hlndering fireman in their efforts to
| save property. Terrible sheets of flame
and clouds of hot smoke frequently whirled
dangerously near them. The large whole
sale fur mandatory of Revillion Freres
III to al Queen Victoria street. was
doomed shortly after the fire gained strong
Roadway. Following this a large copper
warehouse, a number of fancy goods stores
and the Gulcher Electric Light and Power
company's building were also complete
prey 30 the flames. The flames spread rap
idly On all sides, as if there were no fire
men of fire engines present. Immense
crowds CT people gathered on the bridges
over the Thames and in the streets running
down to the river where a good view of
the contiagration could be had. Manv
expressed the hope that this disaster would
at least bring about reform in the London
fire brigade AS the fire progressed il
spread TO the headquarters of the Salvation
army, the Salvationists working like
beavers in their efforts to place the records
and property in place of safety. At 4 o..
m. the fire is rapidly spreading in all direc-
tioIs. All buildings from the corner of
Benefits hill to No. 135 Queen Victoria
street. are either blazing fiercely or else are
smoldering ruins.
The fire originated in the building OF
Davidson u Sons, paper manufacturers
and bag makers at 119 Queen Victoria
street. This building is large structure
and IS completely Quilted, as also was that
| OF Adolph Frankar & Co., manufacturers of
| pipes and importers of tobacco. The old
Bennett church on Upper Thames street. a
famous Welsh church, also caught fire AT
30 p. N. What would be termed in New
| York four large ''blocks' of buildings are
in flames and burning steadily.
| AT this afternoon st. Bennett,s
church was completely destroyed. The
| f1remen managed to save the Headquarters
OF the Salvation army and it was then an
nounced the fire was under control Two
million dollars, it is estimated, will cover
| the loss.
| A later examination of the burnt district
shows that st. Benefits church, an old
Welsh worshipping place, was not entirely
destroyed as at first thought. Besides q
| high wind today, the weather was ey.
tremely cold, the water freezing all over
the fire apparatus and tiremen. There was
no loss OF life and few accidents among the
| tiremen. The total loss is So, 100000.

enough to see through Gould's plan. AS
soon as the agreement is in force he will
knock the celebrated Union Pacific-North-
western agreement on the head by divert
ing at Denver from the Union Pacific all
possible traffic to his pet, the Missouri
Pacific, and taking it east via st. Louis and
Memphis. The Northwestern also sees
this, and if we have any difficulty in
organizing it will come from the natural
reluctance Of the Northwestern to give up
the enormous traffic it has been getting
from the Union Pacific. We will hold
another meeting tomorrow and try to agree
on plan of action for the New York meet

Fall of q Roof In New York.

New YORK, Dec. 3O.-This afternoon the
roof of a five story building on the north
west corner of Twenty-ninth street and
First avenue, collapsed. Fifty men were
at work transferring the building into the
annex to Koehler's brewery. What caused
the accident cannot be learned. 1t was
thought at first most of the men must have
been killed, but when the fremen and po-
licemen arrived on the scene they soon
found the affair was not so serious. James
Duneen and Lewis Weber were fatally in
iured, dying in short time. Ten other
men were painfully hurt, ana one or two Of
them may die. The roof in falling rather
gathered about the centre post, forming
sort of umbrella, and this explains how the
men escaped so miraculously.

What Presidents Miller ana cable Saw

CHICAGO, Dec. 30.-President Miller, of
the st. Paul road, commenting on the state
ment made by President Dillon, of the
Union Pacific, said this evening he was
glad to hear the tripartite agreement is
still IN force, as nearly everybody else
thought 1t was dead. If it is still in force,
heis at loss to know how the traffic agree
ment between the Union Pacific and North
western roads can stand. By the terms of
the one the other cannot exist. The St.
Paul road, he said, would endeavor through
| legal proceedings to enforce the contract
Tor the use of the bridge terminals.
President Cable, of the Rock Island. ex-
pressed similar sentiments Neither he
nor Mr.. Miller would express any opinion
as to whether their contracts with the
Union Pacific were in violation of the obi
CATIONS OF that road to the government.
What steps they have taken regarding
legal proceedings, were also kept quiet.
Both will attend the presidential meeting
IN New York, and it is expected they are
reservlng what they may have to say until
then. Still, the general impression seems
to be that Gould will gain his point in keep
ing the Rock Island and St. Paul out of
Omaha. If he does, it is not at all certain
they Will carry out their original project of
building an independent bridge

K0CR'S NEW YORK RIVAL,
Dr.. White Uses a Liquid that Has the Same Eff
feet as the Celebrated Lymph

Especial to THE MISUNDERSTANDING Dispatch.
New YORK, Dec. 30.-Prof Koch has a
rival IN New York. whose liquid is being
used instead of the lymph in cases of
phthisis with the most encouraging re-
suits. Gold is one of the principal com
ponents in this remedy. 1t looks exactly
like hoch's lymph, has the same con-
slstency aud produces the same markell re-
action upon patients afflicted with phthisis.
Ten phthisis patients at the Charity hos
pltal who have been under treatment with
Dr. Whites liquid for a week received
another injection yesterday afternoon and
a perceptlble Improvement was noted in each
and every case. DR.. White in answer tn a
question, said: 81 have been using this
nquld for some time in my private practice
ana more recently in the Charity hospital.
ind that on the administration of the
remedy the results are practically the same
as those superinduced by the lymph of
| Prof. Koch"
Although L do not mean to say the COM
pounds are the same in every respect re-
| piled DR.. White, 81 do believe the potent
influence IN each is due to a powerful in
organic agent. The reason why | believe
TINS Is that Prof. Koch recommends that his
fluid when prepared for injection should be
mixed with a solution of carbolic acid. This
administration would result in the neutrali-
cation or very material modification of any
effects which might be due to the presence
OF any organic ferment The gold remedies
should be used with the greatest Judgment
and care, as they are very powerful agents
and II indiscreetly used serious results
might follow"
The golden liquid is administered by DIR.
White by means of ordinary hypodermio
syringes in doses of one to two or more
drops as the eXigencies of the case seem to
require, with weak solution of carbolic
acid. The cost of compromising the fluid is
from $3.50 to 5000.

Especial to TIE acknowledgements Dispatch.l
COLUMBUS, Dec. 30.-A two column ar
ticle in the Euening Press gives the out
line of the result of a consultation betw cen
the friends of Senator Sherman aud James
G. Blaine held here last week. The Press
claims to have the matter it presents from
sources which make it authentic. Among
other Republicans of note in Columbus
last week when the scheme was arranged
were Stewart L. Woodford, of New York,
and General James A. Hale, of Maine.
The plan seems to have originated with
Republicans who wish to see their party
enter the race of 1892 with hope of success,
who regard President Harrison as out of
the question and now think the result of
the late election was a Reputation by the
people of what Mckinley impersonated.
They fear that the old charges against
Blaine would defeat him again. and think
the financial issue will play 50 great q part
in the campaign that fnancier of known
ability must need be selected for candi-
date. They think they have found such a
person in Senator John Sherman. Mr..
Blaine has been consulted and, indeed, is
said to be one of the authors of the scheme.
Mckinley is to be thrown overheard at
once and Sherman be nominated for gov
ernor. With the prominence in Ohio
affairs this would give him and the work
ing representation that the inventors of the
scheme will be able to give it by that time,
1t Is hoped TO present Mr.. Sherman as a
candidate for the presidential nomination

was piece of gratuitous insolence. The
conference decided TO send hundred ma

Concentrating the Union Pacific Management

OMAHA, Dec. 30 Special telegram to
The HERALD. The first step toward the
reorganization of authority in the Union
Pacific management was made to-day in
the appointment by General Manager
Clark of E. L. Lomax as general passen-
ger and traffic agent of the entire Union
Pacific system. Mr. Lomax has had tho
title Of general passenger agent for a num-
Der OF years, but under the Adams admins
tration really had jurisdiction only over
the Missouri river division of the road
each of the other grand divisions of the
system being supplied with separate
general passenger agent. The extension
of Mr. Lomax's authority does
away with the general passenger
agents of the Kansas divisions
of the system. The men who have held the
positions affected, were: passenger agent
of the Pacific division, Portland; George
Day, general passenger agent of the Colo
rado and. Fort Worth divisions, Denver:
+. L. Lynd. general passenger agent of
the st. Joe and Grand Island division; the
assistant general agents at Ogden, Salt
Lake, Fort Worth, Kansas City, Pocatello
and other division points. 1t is not an
nounced as to what other changes will fol-
low Mr.. Lomax's promotion, but it will re-
suit in the first instance in very materially
reducing the number of titled and high
salaried officials in the passenger depart
ment. Some of the present general passen-
ger agents viii probably be retained as
division passenger men.
