Several Chinese Tenements-EIeven
Horses Burned.

Several more Chinatown Landmarks"
went up in smoke at an early hour yes
terday morning. They belonged to DAN
iel Gardner and Charles p. O'Neill, and
occupied most of the north side of /
street, between Fourth and Fifth.
In all there were six frame structures
burned, four owned by Gardner and son,
and the other two by O'Neill. Mr..
Gardner occupied one building, where
he had rooms to let, and another was oc-
cupied by an elderly woman named
| Molineaux, and was also lodging
house. The other buildings of the Gard
| ners were divided into tenements and
occupied by Chinese and Japanese.
Daniel Gardner lost three horses and
his son two, and their tenants six
others.
They also lost two engines, wood
wagons, saws. etc., used by young Gard
ner in the wood business. and their loss
is about $4,000, with only $500 insur-
ance. AS the property is mortgaged, they
are left absolutely penniless.
One of O'Neill's buildings was occupied
by George Shoemaker IS junkstore. 1t
and Chinese tenement structure were
destroyed; loss, about $500.
The hremen did splendid service in pre-
venting the flames from leaping across
the narrow street. Several times Mesicl1's IS
building and MerrilPs wagon-shop oppo-
! site were on fire, and the heat was so ter
rife that the frenlea frequently had to
turn streams of water on one another to
enable them to endure it.
Had there been north wind blowing
nothing could have saved the south side
of the street. Fortunately there was
| plenty of water, and one of the best
| streams played on the fire came from the
hydrant at Fourth and j streets.
| Mrs. Molineaux, the aged lady who oc-
cupied one of Gardner's houses, barely
escaped in her night dress and blank ct
all that she saved. She was taken to
the International Hotel, where she now
is totally without means, or clothing
| enough to enable her to leave her room.
She is upward of 90 years Of age, and
has devoted much of her time and ener-
gies to evangelical work, chiefly in San
Francisco, where she is well-known and
| respected. Ladies who can spare her
| some clothing or other aid in her distress
should do SO.

PAPA CLEVELAND.
The Ex-President the Father of an
Eight-Pound Girl.

Eight-Pound Girl.
NEW YORK, Oct. A daughter was
born to Mr.. and Mrs Grover Cleveland
yesterday morning. The child weighed
eight pounds. The important news did
not become known down town until
nearly noon. Then it spread with the
utmost rapidity, both in the city and to
other parts of the country. During the
afternoon many flowers We're sent to
Mrs. Cleveland, and both father and
mother received hearty congratulations.
The home of Grover Cleveland was
stared at by many curious eyes to-day.
The soft Indian summer air brought
thousands to Central Park, which is only
a block from the Cleveland home. Hun
dreds sauntered from the park through
SiXty-siXth street to view the house
where General Grant was so long sick be-
fore going to the mountains to die, and
where his widow now lives. Turning
into Madison Avenue the sightseers
strolled up the avenue to look at the
house where, according to the morning
papers, the newborn baby was. Oppo-
site the house, across the street, all
through the afternoon were lettering Gu
rious people, who stopped in little knots
and groups to look at the house where
the open windows let in the soft air,
which gently lifted the curtains behind
them.
There were many messages of con-
graduation during the day, but the doctor
and messenger boys chiefly made up the
callers. Word came out from the quiet
house that the little one and her mother
were in a satisfactory condition. The lit
tie ones grandmother Mrs. Cleveland's s
mother) left the house for brief airing
during the afternoon.
The most definite description of the
child is to the effect that the baby has
| light hazel eyes, and there are indications
that she will be brunette. There is no
doubt, whatever, that she viii have a
dimple if all statements of those who
| have seen her are to be believed, because
they all agree on that point.
They also agree that she will be beauty
not as great beauty as her mother,
possibly, but still beauty. The baby's
outfit of wearing apparel is said to be a
dream of tasteful elegance and millinery
skill. She will have no use for these
pretty things of silk and satin and velvet
for some time to come, but when she does
make her appearance in public, she is
likely to take the shine off most "babies
on the block"

Rescript.-The evidence so conclusiyely
shows that the plaintiffs injury conld not
have been received from defective draw
bar on one of the defendants cars, as assert
ed by the plaintiff, it seems as il the Jury
must have been influenced by some improper

HOUSEKEEPING IN CHURCH.
A Suit OF Great Interest to maine
EpIscopaiians.

The suit of Henry A. Nicely, Bishop of the
Protestant Episcopal Church of Maine. VS..
Susan A. Hoskins and her two daughters, of
Old Town, was called up yesterday before
Judge Foster, in the Supreme Court at Ban
gor.
1t is a casa of great interest to Episcopal-
ans throughout the state. The parish OF St'
James, at Old Town, was organized In 1872
Ira Wadleigh of that town was one OF the
founders of the ,church. one of the wardens
and member of the building committee at
time of the erection of the church edifce.
The present church edifice was completed
at time of great financial stringency and
after severe struggle. and Mr.. Wadleigh ex-
pended considerable time and money in its
completion. After 1t was completed he was
anxious that 1t should be eonsecrated by
Bishop Burgess. which could not be done
while the church Indebtedness existed. MI.
! Wadleigh decided to release all claims which
he had against the parish and did execute
receipt in full of all claims. The parish. in
return, voted to deed him the church lot and
edifice, reserving to the parish the full and
free control of the church forever. and the
right to rebuild it, If destroyed from any
cause, on the old foundations, free of ground
rent forever.
In 1866, Ira Wadleigh conveyed the church
and lot to George Burgess, Bishop of Maine,
and his successors In office, upon condition
that 1t should be forever held for the use of
the Protestant Episcopal Church at Old
Town. Services were continued In the
church until the fall of 1886, when, on ac-
count of Its age and the difficulty of heating
it properly, services were held in the house
of one Of the wardens of the church during
the winter, and the church has since only
been used for meetings of the vestry and an
nual meetings Of the parish
The parish, from time to time, has made
some repairs upon the church, and contem-
plated rebuilding it, In November. 1887,
Mrs; Hoskins, who Is o daughter. of Ira
Wadleigh, with her two daughters, forcibly
took possession of the church building and
set up housekeeping within its walls. They
claim that the conditions of the deed of Ira
Wadleigh have been broken. and that the
ownership of the church and lot has been
forfeited by abandonment.
This suit was brought by Bishop Nicely as
the successor of Bishop Burgess, in behalf
Of the parish of ST. James, to recover pos
session of the church which Mrs. Hoskins
and her two daughters have converted into
dwelling house.
Testimony was taken in the case, and 1t
was finally agreed to report 1t to the full
court to decide upon the legal rights of the
parties.
Messrs. N. & 81. b. Cleaves of Portland
and George T. Sewall of Old Town appeared
as counsel for Bishop Nicely and the parish,
and Charles p. Stetson of Bangor for the
heirs of Ira Wedleigh.
