$50 900 Goes Up In Smoke aud the Loss
Almost Total.
Somehow, nobody knows how, nor
never will, fire originated in He'll
man 4 Heydt's mill on Monday night
shortly after six o'clock and few
minutes latter the building was mass
of mad, seething flames which crept in
and around the wood work Of the stone
building, then spread to the old home
stead occupied by John Heilman, Jr.,
then it skirtea-off to the immense ice
houses of Obert & Heilman; then over
to the large stables and not satisfied
with this 1t swept out of its way with
relentless fury all the out houses even
to the smallest hen coop, There was
nothing saved from the mill, which
contained the largest amount of stock
held at any one time in ten years past.
Even the books went so that the loss
is a very heavy one and may 90 way up
into the thousands. From the house
most all the furniture was saved by
the score of willing workers, and
carried to point on the hill side and
later was taken to the stable of John
S. Lentz near Alum streets. In the
stable at the time were number of
horses among the number being the
valuable animals belonging to Horace
Heydt, Esq, son-in-law to Moses He'll
man. These were all saved fortunately
as was also all the other live stock.
On the ice houses which were the
property of Obert Heilman there was
was partial insurance, ON the mill,
dwelling house, stables, &c, which be-
long to the Lehigh Valley Railroad
Company there was no insurance. On
the stock in the mill, it is also said
there was $1,000 insurance. The loss
therefore, is a heavy one on our es-
teemed townsmensHeilman SHeydtand
have the sincere sympathy of all our
people in thier misfortune.
1t is very fortunate for Lehighton
that the fire originated in the quarter
that it did. Had it broken out any
where else in the town, there is moth.
ing that would have saved Lehighton
from perhaps, complete obstruction by
fire. There was quite a breeze blowing
at the time and sparks were carried
as far north as the Catholic church
but fortunately without doing any
harm, We have practically no fire pro
lection outside of 1870 feet of hose
sections of which George b. NJ
Stocker, of Lehigh No. l, had carted a
his own expense to points along Alum
street, in anticipation of the flame
spreading, There was no need for tn
hose. This town has fire company
among the members being our leadin
business and professional men but tn
company is handicapped. No hos
carriage, no hose house, no nothing
but an organization, with this lesson Q
lessons staring us in the face let a
our people bestir themselves so tha
we get the necessary protection.
The destroyed mill and dwelling
we're among the oldest in the town an
for many years was the home Of NJ
Heilman.

THAT POISONING CONSPIRACY.

Attorney Brock says the PToOfts Positive.
Labor Leaders Snid to be Implicated.
PITTSBURGH, Pa. Dec. 12.-Capt. E. Y.
Brock, counsel for the Carnegie Steel
Company, Limited, and Deputy Sheriff
Farrell left Tor Louisville tonight with
requisition papers from Governor Pat
tison for Robert J. Beatty, who is under
arrest there for completely in the Home
stead poison conspiracy. They had
with them the confessions OF the cooks
who we're to administer the poison to
the non-u union men and were to receive
5000 if the mills were shut down.
Captain Brock is fearful that he will not
reach Louisville in time to prevent
Beatty's release on q writ of habeas cor
pus. Deputy Sheriff Farrell will pro-
coed at once to Frankfort to lay the
requisition papers before Governor
Young. Before leaving Captain Brock
said no more arrests would be made
until his return unless something I'M
foreseen should happen.
Notwithstanding the denials OF prom
inent members OF the Amalgamated adj
visory board, he said it would be shown
that members OF the advisory board and
members OF the Amalgamated Associa-
ton and Knights OF Labor were implic-
ated in the plot. Capt. Beck hopes to
return with Beatty on Friday. The in
formation against the latter has been
changed from aggravated assault and
battery to poisoning.

Under Sensational Circumstances.
HAzELroN, Pa, Dec. 19.-The boldest
case of kidnapping ever perpetrated in
this region took place on one OF the
most prominent thorouGhfares OF this
city to-day.
A carriage stopped near the residence
OF Mrs. Fettor at 10 o'clock this morn
ing. From it alighted Mrs. Daniel
Hugo. Without ceremony, the woman
entered the Fetter house and before any
one could realize what she was about,
picked up little Sadie, tho iour.yeaF-old
daughter Of Mrs. George Petit. Like n
flush she darted through the door,
stepped into the waiting carriage and
was gone. Neighbours gave chase, but
the carriage soon outdistanced them
and the kidnapper escaped. II is al
legged that Mrs, Petit was visiting her
aunt Mrs. Fetter, to escape the cruelty
OF her husband, who lives at Sandy
Run. 1t is believed that the woman
was employed by the husband to steal
the child. Warrants were sworn out
before Alderman Laubech and officers
have gone in pursuit OF the child thief.

late this afternoon upon the second and
third charges against Prof. Henry P.

and no was found guilty OF both
charges. These arc the charges that
pertain to his views on inspiration.
The second charge was that he taught
contrary to the fundamental doctrine OF

OF faith that the Holy Spirit did not so
control tho inspired writers in their
composition Of tho Holy Scriptures as
TO make their utterances absolutely
truthful, /. e., free from error, when in.

of teaching an inspiration OF the Scrip

taught by the Scriptures themselves
and by the confession OF faith.
These two charges were SO nearly
alike that it is said the court argued
them together.
