tsss . Deemed Unlikely.

Ionis county's recount gives the
elsct.oa Of congressman 10 George T..
Richardson. The COMMITTEES rnlshed
yesterday and their report VAS adopted
bv the board OF eanyzssers- The re-
count in Ionia resulted IN net loss for
BeIknap OF thirty, which gives Rich
srdson plurality OF twelve IN the DIS
tFic:. The original count IN ionia
gave Bslknap plurality OF go. The
recount gives him but 2i6, which added
To his plurality of Us in Ottawa makes
total of STA Richardson's plurality
Ia Kent. according to the recount, Is
$50. making ma plurality twelve IN the
three counties.
Richardson's plurality 10 safe, over
and above the questionable votes
winch have been most contested IN this
county. The twelve votes winch the
Iona committee have long had under
sdvisement we're thrown out, but had
they and she pIainfield and Paris bal
lots in question been counted, i would
still leave Richardson . plurality of
ax. Up to Thursday night Richardson
had gained eight In Ionia- The two
remaining townships which were
counted yesterday morning. gave hin,
four more. The returns from Iona
were forwarded 70 the state cAnvassing
board At Lansing yesterday afternoon.
It % possible that there may yet be q
contest IN tho courts, but prominent
local republicans believe this to be un-
likely.

SAVED BY A BUCKET BRIGADE.
Magnolia Visited by Obstructive
Fire Early Friday Morning.

Tho Whole Town Threatened For Awhile
--Loss About A1O,DOO--AiI the Mail
Destroyed in the POst-ofice, Where the
Fire Started.
Special Correspondence Of Gazette and journal
DOVER, Doc. 93.--f'ire broke out at 2
o'clock this morning in Magnolia, about
eight miles from here, and at one time
threatened to destroy the entire village.
The fire originated in the post-oitice
and general store of William Grace, and
the following buildings were burned in
the order named Meat market of Peter
l.. Grace; dwellings OF Harry Wingate
and Captain L. Burton.
All the buildings were entirely de-
stroyed, but part of the contents were
saved. The loss is estimated at about
$4,000, partly covered by insurance.
IL is thought the lire was caused by a
defective flue in the post-oGico. 1t was
soon discovered and the alarm given,
but the town not having any equipment
for lighting fire the citizens were power
less.
A bucket brigade prevented the flames
from destroying the entire town. All the
mail matter in the post-otllce was de-
stroyed.
