a COTTON FIRE,

NEW YORK, Dec. 1I-There was fire at
a big warehouse on the Brooklyn water
front today, and 600 worth of cotton
was consumed. The fire resembled in
many respects the confagration in the
Harbeck stores last month, and it is only
by good luck that it was not attended with
equal or greater loss of life. Before the
fire had been burning half an hour part of
the north wall of the warehouse fell and
rin- firenen, including Chief Engineer
Nevns, was forced to leap into the slip to
escape the avalanche of stone which came
crushing down upon the pier Fortunate
ly none were buried under the falling wall
and all were pulled out of the water more
frightened than hurt. Only Fireman
Lafferty was badly injured. His thigh
was broken, and he received several pain
full bruises. II is reported sthaU several
men were crushed beneath the wall; but
all the department men have been ac-
counted for, and the firemen are confident
that no one else was on the pier
The building was owned by David s.
ArnOtt of Brooklyn. 1t is said the Round
tree company of the cotton exchange own
ed large portion of the goods stored. IL
is believed that the fire WAS caused by
spontaneous combustion. The loss is
mostly covered by insurance. The loss is
principally on the cotton, though there
was a small amount of jute and bagging
stored there. The damage TO the building
Is SIS 900

NOTES FROM GUTHRIE.

GUTHRIE, o. T, Dec T.-[Special.l j
Territorial matters are in semi-quIes-
cent state. The people of Oklahoma are
quietly awaiting congressional action in
the matter of the outlet-and other Indian
reservations. The Kickapoo country will
be taken up in the twinkling of an eye.
The land has been ''spied out" and two
hours will suffice TO place a man on every
quarter section.
There seems 10 be a perfect craze to in
troduce into the legislature new bills and
amendments to the existing statutes. To
select from this mass what will be for the
interests of the territory will require great
care.
Some matters relating to the expenditure
of public moneys seem singular the re-
ports of the various officers are given to
the public The auditors report shows
that out of ST 900 expended for taking in
sane persons 10 Hsylums and criminals To
penitentiaries so, coo is for sheritf's fees.
Why would it not be better to have each
county send its own criminals and insane
10 the places provided for them, and have
the county Commissioners pass upon the
expense billss This would b.ing the mat
ter nearer TO the people.
The committee appointed by the territor-
ial board of education to decide upon the
dictionary and maps to be used IN the pub
lc schools Of the territory met in Guthrie
yesterday. As yet no report has been
made.

CURRENCY REGISTRATION.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 17-Treasurer Ne
beker, in his annual report, makes the
following significant remarks in regard to
the present system OF paper currency:
''The present methods of keeping ac-
count of the issue and redemption of paper
money are imperfect and unsatisfactory.
They do not afford the certainty and cor
rectness desirable in business of he mag
nitude to which this has grown. The
safeguards against errors are insufficient.
A mistake Of description in the original
schedule, If not discovered before the de-
struction of the notes, would probably be
perpetuated. Worse than this: duplicates
of number, or numbers never regularly
issued, would be passed without suspicion.
In either case the fact of an error having
occurred might not be brought to light for
years. aud then only by the condition Of
the account. While some improvement
might perhaps be made in the details of
the present methods, it is doubtful il any
system short of a complete numerical reg
istry Of every note, with date of issue and
redemption, would be entirely satisfac-
tory. Such records would not only be Il
valuable check against the occurrence of
errors, but would also bear upon their
face certain evidence of their own in
tegriiy and afford q means of tracing and
correcting any mistakes that might
creep in

The MEXICAN BORDER


WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE United
States and Mexican governments are CO.
operating for the quelIing of the disorders
along the Rio Grande arising out Of a sus-
pected iusurrectionary movement against
Mexico. Secretary EIkins has ordered adj
ditonal troops to the Texas border, with a
view to preventing the growth or encour-
agement of the movement on United States
territory. The Mexican government Will
also increase its force of soldiers on their
side of the line and it is expected that the
prevailing lawlessneSs Will soon end.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-THE Mexican
government, through Senior Don Romero,
charge d'affaires of the Mexican legation.
bias officially called the attention OF the
United States government to the recent
raid into Mexico and the murder of citi-
zens of Mexico at San Yguaclo by men
who formed on the American side of the
line. Secretary Foster of the state depart
ment has in turn communicated with the
war department and asked that additional
troops be furnished and stationed on the
Mexican border to prevent these eXcur-
sIons complained Of
Ia army circles the matter is treated
very lightly aud no serious trouble Is an
tcipated. A high official said this morn
ing that If the Mexican government had
one-tenth force on the Mexican border that
the United States has on its side these
raids could not take place The maraud-
ers were not an organized body but Il
guerrilla band that met and made flying
trip into Mexico. When they returned to
the United States they scattered like
partridgts in the chaparral. 1t was not
the duty of the army TO chase
men who were simply criminals, but to
assist the marshals in their srest in case
the marauders were too strong for the
civil authorities

rived at Fort McIntosh today from Lieu
