Bad Fire at New Orleans.

New ORLEANS, La, Aug. l4.-Fire
broke out in the second story of the
large four-story brick building of the
Brooklyn Cooperage Company, occupy
ing the front square bounded by Halia,
Erato and South Peter streets. From
al! appearances the fire must have
been burning fully half an hour
before being discovered, for when
the department arrived almost
the entire third floor was in flames.
The building was fully equipped
with automatic extinguishers. but not
withstanding this, when the firemen ar
rived on the scene the building was a
mass of flames, owing to the infamma-
BILE nature of the material contained
therein. The Brooklyn Company is an
auxiliary of the American Sugar Rein
ing Company, and is under the man
agement of Charles Perrllliat. The
building was erected only year ago.
It is insured for $300,OO The total
loss, including building, stock and ma
chinery. is estimated at S350,C00.

could be much more efficiently, and
cheaplv performed in Dublin than IN
London. AS for fighting. the very idea
was preposterous, they would have
about as much chance of victory IN
fighting the English and Irish parlla-
ments, as Rhode Island or Delaware
would have if either were insane enough
to attempt to fight the rest OF the IN
ion. The practical good sense OF ma
iority of the Irish professionals would
speedily put down any attempt at sucn
demonstration. The speaker contln-
ued:
1t would be peaceful act for Mr.. Glad
stone, on MS return to office, TO grant am
neSty to the men accused OF pOlltlcal
crimes, of violence, now imprisoned IN
English and Irish penitentiaries. Even II
they were guilty, as charged, Mr.. Glad
stone should remember that they were
only engaged in ringing that celebrated
chapel beil' of his, which called,
tention to the intolerable griev--
ances under which Ireland labored
at the time when the alleged attempts at
crime were made. According to GLAD
stones own statement. 1t was the deSper-
ate acts of these men that drew his atten-
ton to Irelands grievances. one gay OF
clemency could have more good enect on
the Irish heart, at home and abroad. than
a hundred wears of severity. If the crimes
charged aga INST these men had the effect
of helping to make Gladstone Irelands
powerful ally, the aged statesmen should
verted him to the faith of human liberty.
In conclusion Mr.. Finerty, referring
to the two factions in the Irish parlia-
mentary party, said that from the great
meeting which he had the honor to adj
dress, and in the name of the United
Irish societies of Chicago, over which
he had the honor to preside, mighty
cry for union would 90 forth to their
brethren in Ireland and everywhere
beneath the sun. The American Iris h
had stood faithfully by Ireland in the
past, and they were willing to do SO
again, but they firmly and emphatically
demanded union. There should
be mutual concessions, and men
who were recognized as leaders
| among their countrymen should think
less of their own ambitions and heart
burnings, and more of the interests
| of their common country. Should 1t be
| necessary again to dissolve Parliament,
in order to force their home rule bill
| through the House of Lords, he had no
doubt the Irish settled in the American
republic and in other lands would give
millions of dollars to aid the Irish party
in order to maintain the struggle
and gain the victory. He hoped they
all might live to congratulate Ireland on
her freedom, nobly recognized after
generations of sacrifice and of suffering,
such as no other nation had endured;
and to hail her old green flag flying
proudly above her rehabilitated Senate
| house, soon to be dedicated to the per-
| lection and the maintenance of her leg
| islative independence.

Suicide of Gen. Dunn, of New YORK. at
Denver, Col.
DENVER, Col, Aug. 13.-Gen. N. Gano
Dunn, formerly of New York City, who
shot himself in the head last night in an
attempt to commit suicide, died this
afternoon at st. Luke's Hospital. The
cause of his act stillremalns, somewhat
of mystery, as the General refused to
make any statement before dying. tie
left a few lines in note addressed to
Fannie b." in which he talks OF
disappointed love, etc. This is thought
to have been the product of partially
diseased mind, as he was not known to
be lady's man and "Fanny BIS lden-
tity cannot be established. Gen. Dunn
was without money, and being OF a
proud disposition, would not work at
manual labor. He made pretense Of
associating with the upper ten' and
having run out of funds and being un-
able to keep his social standing. he
ended his trouble by taking his own
life. The General was about 90 years OF
age, and is said to have wife and two
sons in New York.
New YORK, Aug. 13.-Gen. n. Gano
Dunn was we'll known to the National
Guard of this city, having been several
years commander of the Eighth Regi,,
ment and later brigadier-general and
chief engineer on the staff Of Gov. John
A. Dix. He was the son of Prof. Ma
thaniel Dunn, the friend and classmate
of Longfellow, the poet, at Bowdoin Col
lege in 1925. The General was born at
Hampstead, L. l., in 1915. He gradual
ed from Columbia College and law
school, and before the close of the war
enlisted and went to the front, taking
part in the final battles of the rebellion.
Gen. Dunn was the youngest member OF
the famous committee Of seventy which
unearthed the notorious Tweed frauds.
AS lawyer he handled only insurance
and will cases, and his fees, which some
times reached as high as $4,000,
soon made him wealthy. He
lived on Park Avenue, near
Eighty sixth Street, but five years
agos he separated from his family
and his disappearance was 80 sudden
and mysterious that some of his former
friends were ignorant Of his where
abouts until the announcement of the
suicide disclosed it. Gen. Dunn was
we'll known at the Union League Club,
and was years ago a companion of
Levi p. Morton. He was a member Of
the Thirteen Club, and of the Old
Guard. His wife and family, who occu-
py Il costly flat at 223 Central Park
West, did not learn of the suicide unit!
this afternoon. Then his eldest son,
Gano S. Dunn, telegraphed to the Den
yer police for full particulars. The body
will be brought here for burial. Mrs.
Dunn declines to speak of the separa-
ton, but friends of the family say it was
wholly owing to the Generals wildness.

afternoon in the district court

not been formally turned over to him.
The suit is brought by +. S. w.

the Northwestern Construction Com
pany to recover $35O,0O0 damages fol
breach of contract. The company built
the road and has it on its hands
A few months since the COM

comply with contract made by MIN
with the company to take $500, 900 worth
of construction bonds of the road.
Drought was largely instrumental in
the construction Of the road. The suit
attaches the property of the construc-

A BIG TRAN SACTION.
A New York Money House Exports a
Million in Gold.


Million in Gold.
New YORK, Aug. ia crucial test of
the policy of the government was made
to-day, when Heidelbach, Ickelheimer
& Co. rendered 100000 in treasury
notes, which we're issued on account Of
silver purchases, and demanded for
them 81 100000 gold for shipment to
Germany by to-morrow's steamer. The
treasury officials made no demur, but
paid out the 100000 in exchange
for the treasury notes and the load
WAS carted away and put on the
some comment, as no home in
stitution or home banking firm has
ever made like demand on the treas
ury, and in some quarters an impress
sion prevailed that the exporting firm
took this step not so much to take the
profit on the shipment, which Is in itself
too insignificant for bank or firm to
consider, but really for the purpose OF
forcing crisis. Assistant Treasurer
Roberts was at the sub-treasury while
the gold for Germany was being carted
away. He admitted that it was the first
time such a demand was made, al
though gold has heretofore been given
partly for old and partly for new treas
ury notes. He said in reply to ques-
tons: "No steps have been taken by
the administration to prevent or OBJ
struct the export Of gold. The
government stands ready to meet
all it's obligations in gold and
will pay them all in gold. Its free gold
balance now amounts to $4,000, OOO."
By this statement of Treasurer Roberts
it is clear that the government has al
ready decided on a Dlan to nav all the
silver treasury notes in gold if it is de-
manded. Vice President Cameron, of
the Fourth National Bank, said that he
did not think that the gold surplus
would be reduced at present, but that it
would be increased instead, as the
treasury is now receiving gold from the
Eastern banks tor trans-shipment to the
West. and the West is paying out cur
rency on account of these shipments.
By this step last year the government
increased its gold holdings $l4, 900, 00U.

men had been resorted to, but in spite

could this strike have been called a

at their command. They ordered
strikes unfortunately, until nearly
10000 men were idle. The strike was
Internationally the most expensive that
has ever taken place in this city, and
nearly the whole burden of it fell upon
the men. They had to support not only
their. families, but also the Board of
Walking Delegates, which was no light
item of expenditure. The board con-
sists OF sixty six members, each one of
whom receives at least s. q day, and
seven days. work week. The average
wages of the men was So day. Their
loss, therefore, amounted to sos, 500 a
day, or $352, 500 week. The
loss to the workingmen in wages
during the last four weeks, dur
ing which the number of men idle has
averaged 10000, has been 81, Al 200.
The walking delegates have, of course,
been making money all through the

over sixty days at g cost of nearly $685.

Queen Elizabeth was the first woman
who ever wore a knitted stocking. Having
q very pretty foot, she probably permitted
occasional glimpses Of the new invention
to her admiring courtiers. OF course the
ladies Of the conrt all initiated the queen
and had stockings knit for them as soon re
the delft fingers of their serving women
could weave them. And the fine ladies OF
the virtuous court became vain of ther legs
as a consequence and betrayed the vanity
in a way which shocked the Elizabethan
moralists, whose essays still preserve pro-
tests against the vanity and i%mmodesty of
the frivolous women.
The coarse cotton hose of E%lizabeth's
day, very imperfect in fit, COST about $l2,
and can now be bought for - cents. In
nothing, as a writer in a trade paper last
week points out. has modern invention and
taste wrought a greater change than in the
manufacture of hosiery. Perfection of
