TWICE AFIRE..
The Government Building in
Danger Last Night.

About II o'clock last night c. D.
Cushing, who was passing along
Haywood street, discovered fire in a
box in the court room of the new
government building. An alarm was
turned in and the department res
ponded quickly. but its services were not
needed, the fire being extinguished before
they arrived on the scene.
At o'clock M. M. Slagle, who was at
Sla ,le's hotel, saw signs of fire through
the west hall window of the building, on
the second floor. The alarm was again
given and the department turned out,
but for the second time the flames were
put out without the fremen's aid.
No damage resulted from the first fire,
while in the second the floor in the hall,
in front of the door to Collector Rollins
Office, was slightly burned. A cot which
stood near was also burned.
The fires are believed to have been
caused by spontaneous combustion. A
quantity of waste, saturated with linseed
oil, used by force of Fitzpatrick Bros.
painters in finishing the woodwork OF
the building, had been deposited in boxes
in the court room and hall. There was
no one i'll the building at the time the
! fires broke out, Stanley Forney, the col
ored watchman, being asleep at his
hone.

KILLED By MR.. M'KINLEY
THE EUsINESS OF A TOWN
WIPED OUT.

A Rig Sensation In Trade Circles
in EngIaud-ThisM May be Costly
to The People of the United
states as We'll.
LONDON, Aug. ga meeting has been
summoned of the shareholders in the
company of Salt & Sons, owners of the
famous factories at Saltaire. on the,
River Aire, about three miles from Brad
ford. Saltaire is known as the model
village, the late Sir Titus Salt having es-
tablished there homes for his operatives,
with surroundings according to the most
improved and progressive plans.
The business Of the company has of
late become so depressed that it is SER
iously proposed to wind it up. The
company is limited one, and was
formed in 1881, with capital of So
600, 900 to conduct the business of the
late Sir Titus Salt. The recent losses of
the company are attributed to the Nc
fIHlcy ldIlll, WHICH mas uepllNcu lHc
company of its market in America.
The assets of the concern, inclusive of
the town of Saltaire and the factories,
the stock in trade and machinery, are
valued, according to the latest balance
sheet, at upward of million dollars be-
yond liabilities, but there is no doubt
that at forced sale, the assets would
produce much less than the valuation.
The trade liabilities are about $1,000
900. The firm formerly manufactured
nlpacas and worsteds, and of recent
years has chiefly manufactured plush
goods. Since the Mckinley law went
into operation the business has been re-
duced to tenth of its former magni-
tude, until now the parties most inter
csted have, it is said. concluded that it is
not worth while to attempt to continue.
The concern once employed 1000 op'
cratives, and the attention Of visitors
from all parts OF the world was directed
to the model town Of Sir Titus Salt. The
news of the condition OF the company
has caused widespread sensation in
trade circles.

takes great interest in the political sit

in the people of his State and does not
believe that there is any danger OF their
going off after strange gods. So deep
is the Senator's interest that he expects
at an early day to issue an address or
the political situation to the people o
North Carolina.
