Chief Jackson. after careful inspec-
ton, estimated the total damage done
at $4,000.
Every precaution was taken to be in
readiness to fight the fire if 1t spread to
other blocks, as was feared at one time.
The chief stationed engines for dis
lance of two blocks around the scene of
the outbreak, steam being up and hose
stretched along the ground, but, for
tunately, their services were not needed.
AS is customary when all the APP
paratuS is called out in the business dis
trict, engines were sent from the adjoin-
ing districts to the vacated engine
houses, ready to answer other alarms ii
they should come in.
AS to the cause of the outbreak, Chief
Jackson stated last evening that he was
unable to form a positive opinion. He
thought that it either originated from
spontaneous combustion of some hay in
the barn where the fire started, or from
spark blown from an ash barrel.

large cities. At present the iourneyman is
compelled to pay dollar per month for

machine and tailor's tools. The journey
men want the employers to furnish shop
room and pay their own rent
where the men work by the day. There is
q possibility of the question of working

other question which IS of more concern
to the organization is a change of tho ma

a more central location. st. Louis and
Chicago are both spoken of as preferable
to New York. Another matter of great
importance to the order Will be the ques-

to the association. The convention will
continue three days. The organization has
no individual head. the control being vest
ed in All executive board of five members.
This necessitated the election of tempo

by Messrs. Simon Bass and Emil Favereau
and after a reply by Chairman Grove q

In this letter he says:
The published reports of the committee

tied in the Keystone National Bank of

wealth and to the city of Philadelphia is
about 81. 100000, in which loss the state is
largely concerned. directly and Indirectly.
yon will authorize the receiver of the Key-
stone National Bank To permit coIn-
mittee of three or i've citizens,
TO be designated by me, to examine the
books papers, accounts. etc. OF the bank:
with the view of ascertaining what
deposits OF public moneys. In which the
State had or has any interest, were made
in said bank TO John Bardsley. the late
treasurer of the city and county of Phlla-

Firm Fined for Selling Them.

goods IN the shape of French peas, to which
had been added q certain preparation of
copper to give the peas the peculiar color,
was fined SIS in the municipal court to-day.
The peas were for sale in nearly all the
large grocery stores. but they had been
bought of Pierce Il Co. because il was a re-
sponsble and reliable store, and it was the
wish of the Board of Health TO bring the
facts before the public, and call its atten-
ton to the coloring matter used in the
peas. The defense was that 1t had no
knowledge of any coloring matter in the
peas; moreover. if there was any poisonous
matter in the peas, the firm was not respon-
sible, as the peas were imported and sent in

special 10 the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 3-The Secretary of
the Treasury to-day ordered by cable di-
vision of the immi gration comm ssion,
which is now in Europe studying the sub
ject of emigration to this country. Colonel
Weber and DIR. Kemster will go to Russia
by way of Germany. Commissioners Pow
DERBY, Schulters. ana Cross will study
Great Britain and southern Europe. The
purpose of this division is obvious. The
two great phases of immigration before the
department just now are the subject of the
Russian Jews and the tin-plate workers.
The department has very distinct belief
that the information obtained, both in re-
gard to the persecution of the Jews and the
tin-plate workers in Wales could be much
improved 10y reports from its own COM
missioners, after investigations on the
spot. For that reason Messrs Kempster
and Weber will study the entire subject of
Russian persecution very carefully. They
will learn exactly what class of people it
is whom the Gar is driving from Russia.
Consul Heenan, who represents this gov
eminent at Odessa, has been here for the
past week. and according to what he says
the stories of persecution all come from
sources which are interested In arOuslng

grossly exaggerated. According 10 his
statement. the only Jews expelled from
Russia are Austrian and German Jews. who
are simply Russia carpet baggers He says
that the native Jews are not being dis
turbed. simultaneously with these state
ments. however, come stories from lmmi-
grants of the most dreadful persecution.
Therefore il is quite likely that there will
be- within the next six months q very
heavy increase in the immigration of these
people. Mr.. Foster wants to know all about
them and their desirability as future Amer
lean citizens.
Of the three gentlemen who constitute
the commission for Great Britain. Messrs.
Powderly and Cross represent, respective
ly, the Knights of Labor and the Fedora
tion of labor. the two great labor organi-
cations of the United States. These gentle
men know that they were appointed on the
commission as representatives of org aniZed
labor. and therefore, whatever they report
TO Mr.. Foster regarding the tin-plate-
workers of Wales aud the advisability0f per-

The ports from which the lines are in
tended to run are Galveston, New Orleans.
Mobile and Tampa. There will be three
lines from Galveston and Tampa each. and
one, or possibly two from the other ports
uamed. The projectors contemplate the
building of at least twenty steel steam
ships under the provisions of the msIl-sub-
sidy bill. The vessels must be built of
American material, by American labor and
manned by American seamen. By the sub
sidy act the last line must be in full opera
tion within three years and the company
confidently expects to accomplish this.
