A Fifty Thousand Dollar Fire at the
SchufeIdt DistiIlery in Chicago-NarrOw
Escape of 100000 Barrels of Whisky
and the Entire Plant.
CHICAGO, June 4.-ShOrtly before
o'clock this morning fire started in the
clearinghouse of Schufeldt'S diStillery,
at the corner of Chicago and Hawthorne
avenues Two minutes after the first
alarm the entire immense building was
enveloped in flames and for a
time it seemed that the other
distillery buildings were in danger
of going. In two hours, however, the
fire was under control, but not until
the drying house was an entire wreck.
That the whole distillery plant was not
DESTROYED was a marvel, because only d
fire wall separated the blazing building
from another structure which contained
200, 600 barrels of liquor. Had the
flames reached this point no power
on earth could have prevented the
entire plant from being consumed.
AS it was the loss on the drying room,
IN achinery and CONSENTS will be in the
ighborhood of $4,000. Three men
were in the drying room when the
flames started, and were so badly in
iured that they may die.
The proprietors say they do not believe
that it was incendiary. I'VE do not
| think the whisky trust had anything to
do with this matter" said Thomas
Lynch. Sr.

PAUPER IMMIGRATION.
The Plan Prepared by Assistant Secre-
tary NettIetOn for Its Restriction-The
Cooperation of the Transportation
Lines Invoked.

The Plan Prepared by Assistant Secre-
tary NettIetOn for Its Restriction-The
Cooperation of the transportation
Lines Invoked.
WAsHINGToN June THE plan pre-
pared by Assistant Secretary Nettle-
ton for restricting pauper immigration
into the United States has been sub
mitted to the president and approved.
and was yesterday embodied in a circu-
lar letter and sent to all steamship COM
panies bringing emigrants to this cOun-
try. The circular, after reciting the
laws designed to regulate immigration,
says:
The evident disposition of many steam
ship lines, under the pressure of sharp COM
petition, to gather up in Europe and bring
to the United states all who, with or with
out the aid of others. can pay the now trif1inS
cost of Il Storage passage, regardless of
our laws, compels, on the part of the gov
eminent, closer scrutiny and the adoption
of more comprehensive measures than have
hitherto seemed necessary. While it is the
purpose of the government to enforce these
statutes in their letter and spirit at every
port of the United States, and along the in
ternatOnaI boundaries, it is desired that as
little discomfort and distress possible
result to persons affected by the immiSra-
ton laws. With this view it is important
that persons of the prohibited class should
be prevented from leaving their homes and
crossing the sea only to be sent back on
their arrival here. 1t is wrong that either
tn G greed of some steamship companies, the
mistaken kindness of friends, or the wish OF
many foreign communities to be rid of bur
dens properly theirs, should be permitted
| to result in this useless cruelty
In order % promote the objects of the i'm
migration laws of the United States and
| avoid unnecessary hardships to aliens,
whom our laws exclude, the secretary of TIL
treasury invites the cooperation of the
several steamship lines and all other inter
ested parties in carrying out a system of
foreign inquiry that will facilitate the work
of the government officers.
1t is the duty of each transportation COM
pany engaged in bringing alien emisrants
| into the United States to diligently inquire
whether any person applying for passage
probably comes within the prohibited classes
and rigidly to exclude all such persons.
| The measure suggested is not designed
to take the place of the inspection by the
regular United States officials at the several
ports of arrival, but is to be preliminary to,
nd in a of inSnPrtjOn.

A DEFENDER IN BRITAIN.
Italy Has No Fears Regarding an Attack
of Her Coasts by France.

PARIS. June The Figaro publishes
a letter from NJ. Lucien MillesvOye, d
mem Der of the chamber of deputies, adj
dressed to Mr.. Labouchere, editor of
London Truth. In his letter NJ. Mil
lesvoye declares that the late Prince
Napoleon informed him, in 1890, that
King Humbert had informed him
prince Napoleon) that he had no fear
of not being able to defend the Italian
coasts in the event of war with France.
In such a contingency, Italy had the
written pledge of the British govern
ment tina it would send fleet to pro-
tect Italy against attack which might
be made upon her by France.

fourtns OF them au all Tor some years.
The secretary will merely replace them
with 2 per cent bonds to run for
term of years, subject to the approval
of congress. This is a rather peculiar
way of showing that there is plenty OF
money to pay the bonds. 1t IL pre-
ciseIv parallel to the case OF an ,n1l-
yidual who declares that he has plenty
of money to pay maturing note whlch
he proposes to pay by giving another
note at a lower rate of interest.
1t is not question whether or not
the treasury will be able to meet It's
obligations by some shift, such as lssu-
ing new bonds. Nobody supposes that
the credit of the government Is so Tar
impaired that it cannot contrlve TO
get money to pay current demands
The essential fact is that, under the
appropriations made by the billion-dol-
lar congress, the government is living
beyond its income, and has to resort TIC
extraordinary measures to get money

Lincoln and Grant for the close.
Through the verses of great poets runs
a familiar strain, through the works of
great composers an oft-repeated tune,
and through the speeches of great orators
recurring and characteristic thought.
These are germs which exhibit the moving
forces of their minds. During the: war II
propose to move immediately upon your
works - Unconditional surrender" Il
shall take no backward step" II propose
to fight it out on this line if it
takes all summer the beacon
lights of the plans and strategy of

"Let us have peace;" on his bed of agony
and death at Mount McGregor. when his
power of speech was gone. writing to a con-
federate general BY his bedside: Much as
suffer, do it with pleasure if by that suffer-
ing be accomplished the union of my
country" are the induces of the !abors, the
aspirations and the prayer of Grant the
statesman and the patriot.
The proceedings came to a close with
an address by Judge Crabtree, on be-
half of the Grand Army of the Repub-
lie, and the procession reformed and
marched back to the city.
During the afternoon a general iolli-
fication was held. After leaving the
stand the distinguished guests visited
the old house and store of Grant. to-
gether with the new home presented to
the general by his admiring fellow
townsmen when he returned home
crowned with laurel leaves.
The monument is the gift of H. II.
Kohlsaat, of Chicago, formerly of Ga
lena Mr.. James w. Scott, of the Chi
cago Herald another Gaiena boy, was
chiefly instrumental in providing an
appropriate site for the monument.
The bronze statue stands on solid
base of Quincy gray granite, with a
pedestal of polished red granite from
Maine. On the front surface is the
simple inscriptions: Grant, our Citi-
zen"
The statue represents Gen. Grant in
citizens dress, standing. The likeness
is excellent.
