FOUR HOUSES BURNED.
The Firemen Have a Long Run to
Get to Them.

: Inc ElT0m6n nave LODR run TO
Get to Them.
There was lively blaze on Bolton street,
on the Coast Line railroad, yesterday aft
/ ernoon. Four small frame houses were
burned. According to the story Of the par
! ties living near by the fire was caused by a
! spark from the locomotive Of the Coast
| Line train which passed about 80 O'Clock.
! The houses were near the railroad track
| One Of them was very old aud unoccupied
As the train passed, il was said,
puff of SMOKE from the engine
was blown by the wind into the
open door of the uncccuUied house. Almost
Immediately it burst into flames, nnd, being
Old aud as dry as finder, burned very rap
idly.
An alarm was turned IN by the police
man on duty in that ueighoorhood from
box 43, Price street, near WaldburR, and
some one else turned In an alarm from box
Al at huntington and Price streets, calling
out the whole department.
A telephone alarm was also sent into
headquarters from the Coast Line depot 4,
but by mistake the fire was said to be at
the City and Suburban depot on Whitaker
and Second streets, and the large trucks
from headquarters made run through the
heavy sand TO that point On finding the
fire was not there the truck
turned in the direction OF the fire, when it
stalled In the sand at Price and Gwinnett
streets. One Of the ether trucks aso stuck
in the sand and failed to reach the fire. The
tiremen had a long, haEd run Of it, aud
they had Go run out hose for distance of
several hundred yards to secure water.
Three OF the frame Buildings were down
and another nearly destroyed when the
firemen got the water on and subdued the
flames. Three of the houses belonged to
Isaac Dunwoody (coloredl, and were valued
at SG5, $40 and s25 respectively. Most Of
the household goods in them were also
burned. The fourth house burned was good
broom frame house aud belonged 60 Ed
Sullivan (colored). 1t was insured. The
parties stated their intention OF suing the
Coast Line railroad for damages.
Capt. Johnston. receiver of the Coast
Line, said last night that the conductor on
the train which was said 10 have set the
house afre. informed him that the house
was burning when the train passed, and
consequently could not have been set on
FIRE by sparks from the locomotive. 1t was
a severe and costly run to the fire depart
ment, the machines and horses being
greatly strained by the long pull through
the sand

BRING THE MEN-oF-wAR HERE.

A Movement to Secure Detachment
For Merchants Week.
The United States men-of-war Concord.
Philadelphia and the historic Kearsarge of
the old navy are at Key West for practice
on their way north from Havana, and will
be there about three weeks. This will be
pretty near Merchants week. A visit from
a detachment Of the United States North
Atlantic squadron to Savannah would be an
attraction for the spring celebration.
The matter will be brought TO the atten-
ton of the general committee to-day
with view to inducing the
Secretary of the Navy to permit
the vessels to stop here on their way north.
All Of the vessels are of draft that would
permit them to anchor off the city.
Charleston was visited a couple Of wears
ago ~ the KeaTsarge, Baltimore. Dolphin
and Geiela, and there is little doubt that
when the matter has been present ted to the
navy department that the detachment now
at Key West would be sent here.

GETTING A FIRM HOLD.
THE THIRD PARTY TAKING ROOT
ALL OVER TIE STATE:

! Ex-senator duBignon TO Go on the
Stump in the Organization OF Demo
cratic Opposition-The Plans Of the
New Party-Tom Watson TO Be the
Gubsrnatorial Candidate.
Hon. F. G. duBignon was in Atlanta and
| Augusta the early part Of the week attend
log to Southern Express Company affairs.
and met a number OF lawyers from the
various circuits who impaired TO him iu-
formation about the third party movement
through the country. which, he says. be-
hooves the Democratic party to thoroughly
organize itself at once.
"In every county," said Mr.. duBignon,
1.-THE third party Is being actively
organized and is assuming consider
able strength. Even in Augusta
there are two lawyers running for
| judge Of the superior court and circuit and
solicitor general as straightout third party
candidates with the ides that the next
legislature will be controlled by the new
party.
1.-The democrats Of the city don't appre-
ciAte the situation, and the danger lies Ia
lethargy. With solid organization the
democracy can crush the third party, and
one defeat to 1t in Georgia means disrup-
| ton. My advice is for the democrats of
every militia district to get together In
thorough organization, aud prepare TO
meet the situation as.it should be met"
Mr.. duBignon believes that Tom Watson
will be the gubernatorial candidate OF the
third party His idea 10 running for the
governorship would be that in case be
should be successful and his party secure
the legislature he would be sent to the
United States Senate 10 succeed Senator
Colquitt.
While Mr.. duBlgnon was in Atlanta
Chairman Atkinson of the democratic state
committee and ex-Speaker Clay called upon
him and requested his services to take the
stump against the third party. He
accepted aud during the latter part
OF the month he will start out
to make speeches at democratic rallies. and
will endeavor to get the democrats enthused
into organized and concerted action. He is
going directly into the third party strong
holds, and will begin in Washington county.
