RUNIFoRD, April 22.-Some one ac-
cidentally dropped a lighted match in S.
Y. Abbott's pasture at Rumford, Thurs
day afternoon, and in less than ten
minutes the fire got beyond control and
spread SO rapidly that an alarm was
given. The citizens from Milton and
Rumford quickly responded, and after a
hot fight succeeded in stopping it'just in
time to save Mr.. Abbott's buildings and
those of Mrs. Mabel Thompson. Fire in
the woods in Buckfield yesterday burned
over 20 acres.

root of the evil must be most effective,
and such measures as will most unite the

A BROADWAY FIRE.
Half a Million Dollars Worth of Prop
erty Destroyed.

Half Million Dollars Worth of Prop
erty Destroyed.
New YORK, Jan. 21.-Shortly before
noon, when upper Broadway was
crowded with shoppers, fire broke out
in the basement OF the huge five-story
stone front building, running from
Fifth avenue to Union square. Before the
fremen arrived the fire had extended
all through three cellars. and smoke
was pouring out OF every window. The
building is hanked on the lett side by
Tiffany's jewelry house, and on the
right by the handsome Lincoln offices.
The lower floor of No. 5 Union square is
occupied by Brentano's book establish
ment. The fire started in the basement
OF Schneider & CampbelPs, gas fixtures.
The fire walls on either side
confined the flames to the building
in which they originated, and within
an hour and half the iremen hao it
under control. The loes on the build
ing is about $65, 900. Tiffany's was pro-
tected by pulling down the shutters
when the fire broke out. Brentano's
front was effectually wrecked, and their
loss will be 100000. Jeweler Worms
loses $40, 600; Leon Rheims, importer
of millinery, 100000; Schneider G.
Campbell, 100000; Samuel Green, dec
orator. $50, 1000. A number of smaller
losses will bring the total up to about
$500, 900. Well insured.

No federal question was involved here.
Moreover the Illinois supreme courts
judgment on the motion was not the
condemnation of the parties, but simply
a refusal to interfere with its own rec
ord. 1t was not until the next term of
the court that the men filed an objec-
ton, and he asked, when litigation
would end if counsel could come in at
any time and allege errors in the record.
There is in the case suggestion that
the two men are subjects of Great Brit
ain and Germany. Attorney General
Hunt said he was unable to find any
thing in the treaties by which the case
could be affected. A foreigner stood on
no better ground than an American citi-
zen.
General Butler said when the rights
guaranteed by treaty to a foreigner are
brought into question, he is entitled to
adjudication through the courts OF the
United States, and therefore that fed
eral question will come up in the rec
ords. The claim that Sehwab's impris-
onment under Communication by the
governor was illegal, was novel and
amusing.
General Butler will make the closing
argument tomorrow.
