ing. The old Washington engine was on
duty regularly all day.
Ia the afternoon engine No. 1 was sent to
help it in drowning out the smolderiug
fires among the ruins, Mr. Guckenheimer
having made q request TO the mayor to
have the firemen flood the cellar of the
burned building as there were some valu-
able papers in the ruins which might be
saved by entirely extinguishing the fire.
Crowds Of people visited the ruins aud
watched the engines at work.
Tile big three-ton Marvin safe, In which
are the firms books and papers, all
except three ledgers, which were
removed during the fire, has been
uncovered aud lies under the west wall
near the Bay lane aud Jefferson street cor
ner. It was carried twenty feet in its fall
from the office floor to where it lies, partly
submerged in water. 1t has not been
opened. The door aud sides of the safe are
warped and bulged but the contents are be-
lleved to be all right 1t win be lifted from
the ruins to-day and opened. About $40 is
in the safe besides the books and papers.
The police have captured several bottles
Of whisky stolen from Christian Hahn's
barroom on the night Of the fire. There is
great complaint of loss by stealing on the
part of the Bryan street merchants
who moved out during the fire.
j. Volaski & Son put their loss
from stealage and breakage at over $500
They say they were ordered to move out by
their insurance agents.
j. Perlinski, who moved out large stock,
places his loss at more than double thai
amount. The Bryan street merchants say
that stealing went on right and left while
the fire was in progress.

MORE COTTON FROM ALABAMA
The Savannah, Florida and Western
Bringing 1t In.

The cotton receipts of the Savannah i,
Florida and Western railway this season
are largely in advance of last season up TO
the same date. In fact, the heavy receipts
by the Savannah, Florida and Western
have attracted general attention among the
cotton men. The increased receipts are ec-
counted for by the fact that the Savannah,
Florida and Western is now drawing heavi-
ly from Southeastern Alabama by the Ala
bama Midland. The crop in that section is
said to be very fine, and is damaged only to
a slight extent by the excessive rains of Au-
gust and other causes.

chants who engage in it too brisl1ly. In
a little town over in Indiana used to
sell goods to two merchants who were
pushing each other severely One was
a quiet, reserved man, who had very
little to say about his rival He didn't
seem to feel very certain of the outcome
of their trade war, and feared he was
pretty near the wall. The other mer-
chant was an enthusiastic optionist. and
smilingly assured me he was on the
highway to success. III close nv ri
walls store or bust, was his emphatic
declaration. Well, ] was out in his
town few days ago. Reached there
in the night and the first man met at
the hotel Office in the morning was the
enthusiastic merchant. 'How's bust
ness?' | asked ] went out of business
yesterday he replied. And is your
rival still pegging away?' Yes, why.
| understand you to say you would close
his store or bust. i did say So said
he, and I've kept my word I've
busted. Chicago Herald.
