THE BREAKERS" !"
Cornelius vanderbit's Elegant
House at Newport, R. l.,
Burned with All the Costly Furnish
ings and Rare Paintings.

The Mssss Escape.

NEwrokT, r. L.. Nov. 25.--"The Break
ers," the elegant and costly summer resi-
dence of Cornelius Vandehilt was burnes
late this afternoon. Fire also destroyed thu
valuable contents of the villa, including
furniture, bric-a-bric. wearing appare
and dear and costly articles of every de
| scr.ption The fire was discovered by Mr.
Vanderbilt about 80 z. NJ. smoke beins
seen in the main hall. A telephone message
was sent TO the city and still alarm wa'
sent in, Mr.. Vanderbilt thinking the tirs
slight and easily within control. A few
minutes suffeed To show this serious mis
take, ard within two hours the building and
contents were destroyed.
The villa is located at ochre Point nearly
l-2 miles from the nearest hre station. A
general alarm summoned the entire depart
ment, which was unable 10 work to advan'
taee. This was partly due TO the small
number of hydrants in thai section of the
city, and partly to lack of sufficient water
pressure, as owing TO "A bad break IN The
mains the water works had reduced The
pressure one half within two hours previous
to the breaking out of the fire.
A small portion of the furniture was
saved, seeming large in itself, but insigmii-
cant in quantity or value when compared
v ith that sacrificed. What was taken out
was the least valuable of all, while all the
rich tapestries, rare paintings, valuable
bric-s -brac and elegan, decorations and fur
pishings of every sort were beyond rescue.
The house was built II or 10 years ago
for Z. Lorilliard of New York, and was
purchased, with the extensive grounds, by
Mr.. Vanderbilt in 1850 More than sloo,-
0Co was expended in EDITIONS and improve
ments to the building, the value of which
was estimated at more than half that at I'll"
time of the sale. In single hall were hung
tapestries estimated to be worth $50 900 or
more. Members of the family ard servants
lost all their clothing in the general de
structiOn.
Mr. Vanderbilt found temporary refuge
in the gardeners cottage on the premises,
and were entertained during the night by
hospitable neighbers. MIR. Vanderbilt
could give no accurate estimate of the loss
which he stated is largely covered by insur-
ance. Silver, jewels and other vaiaables OF
like nature were placed in the safes by the
servants and are probably all right. Fifty
or more tons of coal were practically con
sumed The servants lose considerable
amount of cash with their clothes. Esti-
mates place Mr.. Vanderbilt's loss at not
less than S300,000

TreacEerous Gold.

In Ingalls, great speech in the Unitd
 States Senate Feb. b. 1878, he spokeas
 follows of gold:
 ''No people in a great emergency eer
 found faithful ally in gold. It is the
 most cowardly and treacherous o' all
 metals. It makes no treaty 1t doesnot
 break. It has no friend it does not ! sooner or later betray. Armies and navies are not maintained by gold In times of panic and calamity, shipVreck and disaster, it becomes the ageIt and minister Of rain. No nation ever ought great war by the aid of gold. On the contrary, in the crisis of the greatest peril, it becomes an enemy more potent than the foe in the field; but when the battle is won and peace has been secur- ed gold reappears and claims the fruits of victory.
 "In our civil war it is doubtful if the gold of New York and London did not work us greater injury than the powder and lead of the rebels. It was the most invincible enemy O the public credit. Gold paid no soldier or sailor. It refused the national obligations. 1t was worth most when tbe fortunes were lowest. Every defeat gave 1t increased value. 1t was in open alliance with our enemies the world over, and all energies were evoked for our destruction. But, as usual, when danger had been averted, gold swaggers to the front and asserts supremacy"

The stnrnre Batter1.

Electricians are regarding with much satisfaction the fact that after exhaust i've tests and experiments with the most improved systems of traction the Metro politan Street Railway company, of Washington, have adopted the storage battery as the motive power on their lines. and a demonstration of its capa- bilities will be given iu the course of 6 year. In a recent speech at the New York Electric club Mr. c. O. Mailloux said that it was with him a matter of conviction that the storage battery would soon be recognized as the ideal system for cities of a certain size, and he wished to place on record his confirmation of the opinion which an eminent authority had already expresSed-that for cities below 5000 population the storage battery will be the solution of the rapid transit problem on surface roads--BOston Tran script.
