A.H4RN1NG To REL AIR.

The town of Delmar, Del, contain
ing 800 inhabitants and situated be-
tween Sussex county, Del, and Wi
coinico county, Md, was swept away
by fire, on Tuesday. The fire
broke out at noon on the top of
the Knights of Pythias hall and in a
few hours thirteen acres were burned
over, handsome stores and private
dwellings, sixty in all, being destroyed.
The Salisbury fire department prompt
ly responded to a call for help hut
there was no place to get water nearer
than three miles, with the exception
of large pumping house belonging to
the railroad companies. Locomotives
were put in line, their tanks were fill
ed and one by one they were run down
to the scene of the fire. The fire en-
CINE was thereby enabled to secure
water, but before these arrangements
could be made the handsome railroad
station was burned to the ground.
Instead of uniting in what probably
appeared to be useless effort to check
the fire, the people abandoned their
buildings to fate and turned their
effortsto saving their furniture. Not
a store of any character was left stand
ing. Thee hundred persons were
made homeless and there was not
enough provisions left 10 give each
of them a breakfast Wednesday morn
ing.
The loss, tits estimated, will amount
to 800, 900, many railroad employees
who had built homes in the place be-
ing among the sufferers.
This destructive fire, following close
upon the burning of Pocomoke City,
few weeks ago, is another warning
to the authorities Of other Maryland
towns to make the best preparations
they possibly can to guard against the
spread of fire. The lesson, especially,
should be pondered by the Town
Commissioners and citizens of Bel Air.
In 1890 a fire department was organ
lied and drilled and the good result
thereof were seen at the burning of
the Bulett Carriage Works. While
tine firemen were unable to save the
large and inflammable building they
prevented the flames from spreading
to adjoining property. On several
other occasions great CONGREGATIONS
were arrested by the prompt and gal
liant efforts of the firemen. Since that
time the company seems to have be-
came disorganized. 1t has no respon
sible head and probably few persons
know in what condition the costly
hose and other fire apparatus is kept.
Steps should be taken for immediate
reorganization, and the suggestion is
made that truck should be provided
for promptly and rapidly carrying the
ladders to the scene of fire.
The Democratic managers think
they have more than fighting chance
in Illinois, Michigan and Wisconsin.
Six or eight Democratic electors will
certainly be chosen in Michigan. In
Wisconsin the Germans have deserted
the Republican party and refuse to
be reconciled, and Republicans con-
cede Illinois as doubtful.

Providence Alone Saves the Pink
ertons From Roasting.
PITTsBURG, July 6.-When it was
found that little impression could be
made by the cannon on the boats, an
effort was made to fire the barges and
thus compel the PinkerIons to leave the
vessels or suffer the terrible fate of be-
ing burned alive. Hose was procured
and Oil was sprayed OH the decks and
sides of the barges. While this was be-
ing done. barrel after barrdl of oil was
emptied into the river above the moor
ing place, the object being TO allow it
to float against the boats and then
ignite it. This terrible deed wasE at
tempted several times. but the boats
did not burn, and then the mob became
Infatuated and hurled dynamite bombs
at the vessels, with great effect. The
situation of the Pjnkertons was such as
to appall the stOuteSt heart. The men
had not left the barges, and were cOoped
up at the mercy of the infuriated mob.
The towboat had left them. and they
were so encompassed by the maddened
army OF wOrkmen that no Succor could
reach them. Three times they ra up
a lag of truce, but as many times it was
stricken down by bullets fired by the
strikers. Then it became evident that
the ammunition of the besieyed men
was either exhausted or they were toe
much worn out to continue the fight,
and for nearly two hours before the end
OF the struggle was reaceed not a shot
was fired.

LISTENED TO o'DoNNELL.
Proposal of a Leader Accepted by
the Crowd.

the Crowd.
PITTsBURG. July Gan hour later,
while the men were waiting for night
fall to burn the barges and the men in
them, Hugh O'Donnell, leader of the
workmen, grasped an American flag
and, mounting pile of iron, made
an impassioned speech for mercy for
the Pinkertons lying like Gagged wolves
III their barge. The extraordinary
power of O'Donnell over the strikers be-
came manifest at once. A few people
demurred and cried out: Lets burn
them," but they were silenccd.
Lets turn them over to the sheriff
and make information for murder
against them" said the leader. This
was received with cheers, and when a
striker waved his hands and asked the
Pinkertans to surrender there was an
immediate response from the boat.
Capt. Helm, the leader, had fed. Many
others escaped When the Little Bill
came down the river, and the remainder
were terror-stricken. They were mostly
green men in labor troubles. and ex-
pected to be killed.
In an Incredibly short time the lead
ers OF the strikers came on deck. Then
began strange scene. The strikers
crowded into the boats, Capturing rifles
and looting everything. They were
mad with rage. The first man taken off
the barge was dying, shot through the
Side; then one by one the imported
guards followed in charge of an escort,
each man carrying valiSe. The escort
carried WlncheSterS taken from the
PinkertOnS, who had not expected to
leave Homestead alive.

The Captain Of the Little Bill Bull
let-Proof.
PITTsBURG. July 6.-The thrilling
experience of Capt. Charles Wishart,
the plucky commander of the tow
boat Little Bill, has not been equaled
since the perilous days of the
blockade runners during the war of
the Rebellion. His story reads like a
page from newspaper of 1868. The
pilot of the little craft is SO full Of bull
let holes that it is difficult to figure out
how he escaped. Talking Of the shoot
ing he said:
1.-The first shot, l can take my oath,
was fired by the workmen. l saw it
fired 1t came right up past the gang
plank, and was aimed at Pinkerton.

and the bullets came uncomfort-
ably thick about the pilot house.

/ seized one of two rifles that were lean
ing by my side. and emptied its contents
into the crowd. Then took the other
gun. did not carry away any lead in
me, but believe they lugged off some
of NINE"
From the number and position of the
bullets, it is impossible to see how Capt.
Wishart escaped. The side of the pilot
house was filled with buckshot and
bird shot, and the great variety in the
size of the bullet holes indicated that
great assortment of weapons had been
used in the battle.

Kansas Democrats are to be congrat-

sets of candidates in the field, the odds
would greatly favor Republican sue

tensions in Texas and Democratic aspi-
rations In Maine. Moreover. the exr
ample set by Kansas Democrats viii
doubtless influence the action of Demo

similar conditions prevail. In South
Dakota and in Nebraska. for instance,
the possibilities for straight Democratic
success are remote, while a fusion Of

THE british ELECTIONS.

The British elections. so far as re-
ported, indicate defeat for the Liberals.
Lord SALIsBURY's majority in parlia-
ment may be cut down. BUTT can hardly
be wiped out altogether.
This result was reluctantly foreshad-
owed in the Gf.OBE:S editorial columns
some time ago. The internecine feud be-
tween the two wings of the Irish parlia-
mentary party, and the indisputably eX-
cellent record made by Lord SALISBURY
in his administration OF affairs not con-
neeted with the Irish question, left little
room for expecting a reversal of she
large coalition minority in parliam ent
which has supported Lord SALISBURY
curing six years of Office.
The press reports cabled to this coun-
try invariably presaged a Liberal vic
tory and the triumph Of the Irish home
rule cause. but the very evident bias of
these reports destroyed their value as
predictions. OF course, there Is a
shadow OF a hope that the Liberals may
yet e e out a majority. but it is so slight
as to be scarcely worth considering.
Unhappy Erin! Her dream of self
government seems ended, perhaps for
all time. Columbia will give her deep
est sympathy to this unfortunate peo-
pie. but mixed with it there must be a
touch of stern reproof for the bitter do
mestic quarrel which has made Ireland
an easy victim for her outside foes.
