Fire Damages Valuable Property
in New Orleans.
NEW ORLEANS, La, Aug. 14.-At
1880 this morning the employees of Fire
Company No. discovered smoke issu-
ing from the second-story windows of
the large four-Story brick building
known as the Brooklyn Cooperage
company. and occupying the front
square bounded by Halia, Erato
and South st. Peter streets. The
fire boys took in the situation
In moment, and were soon at work on
the fire, after having sent in an alarm,
which brought out the department.. a
second alarm, which was general, was
next turned i'll, when it was seen that
the uptown department could not cope
with the fire. From all appearances
the fire must have been burning fully
half an hour before being dis
covered, for when the depart
ment arrived almost the entire
third floor was in flames. The
building was fully equipped with auto
matte extinguisherS, but. notwithstand-
ing this. when the firemen arrived on
the scene the building was mass of
flames. owing to the intlammable nature
OF the material contained therein. The
Brooklyn companyiS an auxiliary of the
American Sugar Refining company. and
is under the management of Charles
Perrllliat. The building was erected
only year ago. 1t is i'll
sured for 100000. but as the
officers could not be found only a vague
account of the companies holding risks
could be obtained, but a number of
local companies hold small risks. The
remainder was placed il New York
companies by w. L. Lowe. of Brooklyn.
The insurance on the stock could not be
definitely learned. The total loss, in
Guiding building. stock and machinery,
is estimated at 1850. 900.

NO CLOVES. EITHER.

The Department Didn't Keep the
Kind OF Seeds Wanted.
Kate Fields Washington.
Ben LIE Fevre, of Ohio, has been the
hero of many an anecdote, but never of
a more amusing tale than one in con-
nection with the department of agricult-
ure. On one occasion, before it was con.
verified into cabinet department and
was still only commission. LIE Fevre
went to the Commissioner and preferred
a request for some seeds. "What kind
OF seeds?" he was asked.
Now, whether or not LIE Fevre really
knew what he wanted when he started
has always been a question, but. at all
events. when the commissioner asked
him, he didn't have very clear idea of
what he had been sent for. However,
the kind of seeds he was most familiar
with were cardamon seeds, and he
promptly told the commissioner that
they we're what he wanted.
Cardamon seeds" said the unsophisti-
Gated commissioner. ''What kind Of
seeds are those, anyhow? Who wants
them? What are they fOr?"
"For congressman" LeFevre replied.
The commissioner didn't know much
about cardamOn seeds, but he ordered
up the man who ought to have the
cardamon seeds if there were any.
They wrestled with the subject for
some time, while LIE; Fevre sat demurely
In the corner. Finally the commissioner
gravely informed him that the commits
sion had none on hand, and were not
prepared to supply them just then.
Whereupon LIE Fevre vowed it was a
queer agricultural department that
didn't keep cardamon seeds, and went
off to the capitol where, inside of a few
houls, an investigation was ordered to
look into the matter. There was a good
deal of joking first and last over the
cardamon seed committee, but they held
no meetings that any one ever knew of.

RIVER BANK CAVES,
A Building Falls on Account of
Sinking Earth.

Sinking Earth.
NEW ORLEANS, La, Aug. 14.-Crev-
asses and caving banks are the elements
Of danger which beset those who dwell
in the Mississippi river delta. Build
ings or other substantial works
standing in close proximity to the
banks are always surrounded by de-
gree Of danger. as was demonstrated
this morning when the earth on which
the depot of the New Orleans, Fort
jackson q Grand Isle railway were con-
structed began to tumble and shake,
followed by caving Of the bank in
front of it for about thirty feet.
This building was one of the
prettiest on the river front of Algiers,
and added much to the beautifying of
the place, and could be plainly seen
from the lower bank, situated as 1t was
Immediately on the river front and adj
Joining the Canal street ferry landing.
1t was about 200 feet long by so feet
wide, and at the end nearest the
had been erected and was occu-
pied as the business office of
the company. Early this morning
about thirty feet of the river bank caved
into the river. the strong columns and
posts supporting the roof Of the depot
began to careen, followed by crashing
OF heavy tImberS up to midway of the
building ami making noise enough to be
heard for a mile. All the woodwork
broke in two and half of the depot
dropped into the river. During the att
ernoon further caving occurred, and
the offices of the company be-
came total wreck. When the
danger first became apparent Supt. Lam
dry had all the cars and locomotives
moved to q place of safety. He also
removed all the furniture and fixtures
from the Office building by p. III. The
cave in was about 800 feet long and 90
feet wide. City Surveyor Brown made
soundingS along the caving bank this
afternoon and expressed the opinion
that by the use OF piling the bank can
be restored. The loss to the railway
company is estimated at $4,000.

THE BORDEN MURDER,
Miss Lizzie Finds Friends in I'm
expected Quarters

eSpectcu quarters.
FALL RIVER, Mass, Aug. 1.-THE
Borden murders are the great topic
here yet. At the Central Congre ga
ticnal church, of which the Borden fam
lily were members, union services were
held today, attended by the members of
the First and Central churches. CITY
Marshal billiard has heard nothing
from Prof. Wood, who is analyzing the
stomach Of the victims and comparing
the spots of blood on the axe and car
pet. He says if there is any truth in
the reports that Wood has discovered
that the blood upon the axe and
carpets is the same. it is very strange
he has not heard it officially. The po-
lice today have been engaged in chasing
down clues and testing statements made
in many letters sent to the marshal. 1t
is LizZie's side of the case that is now
attracting the whole attention OF the
police.
1t is not thought now that the pre-
liminary hearing set down for tie 22d
inst. will be Of long duration. 1t has
been the policy Of the district attorney
in handling capital crimes to give as
little evdenceG as possible until
the trial takes place. Attorney Jen-
ningS, who, beyond question, believes in
the innocence Of Miss Borden. will
do everything in his power to
have a full examination at the ear
Hest date. His sturdy work at the
time OF the arraignment has done much
to change public opinion concerning the
girl: more particularly that position re-
ferring to fair trial by an impartial
judge. Although Miss Borden is under

heinOGS crime committed in recent
| years, there is little talk about the pun
ishment that should he meted out 10 her.
! She is finding supporters and friends in
most unexpected places. The talk is
| almost entirely regarding her chances
! Of proving her innocence. This. fact

| before Attorney Jennings will
| consent to all order for holding his
client until November. 1t is ali open
secret in police circles that the govern

she committed them. 1t is well known
| in this city that Judge BIasdell and
| District Attorney knowlton were pref

must have had the strongest pos

/ Some evidence relating to the private
J life OF Miss Borden now in the hands of
the police bears directly on this side Of

the high police authorities, who have
said that Miss Borden was not conscious

cred issuing from the new south wing
OF the brush factory at the Hunt
ington reformatory, and in less than an
hour this building. together with the
adjoining three-story building, used as
carpenter shop, was entirely de-
stloyed. The entire reformatory. con-
tanning $50 inmates, was for a time at

the Juniata river, and succeeded in SUBJ
DUNG the flames, which had then com.
municated to the west wing. A portion of

LIBERTo, No., Aug. 1.-THE little
town or SmithvilIe, seventeen miles from

double tragedy this evening. Peter
McCauley, farmer living near Smith
vile, came to town early in the day and
began drinking soon after his arrival.
BY evening he was drunk and quarrel
some and was arrested for disturbing
the peace. His son came to town in the
forenoon and heard of his fathers dis
grace. He went to a hardware store and
purchased revolver and cartridges. AS
he went up the street he met
his father in charge of an
officer. Without moments hesita-
ton, he pulled out his newly
purchased weapon and shot his father.
killing him instantly. Before the Off
Ger could interfere he had sent bullet
crashing into his own brain. He died
in few minutes. There had been no
previous trouble between the father anu
son. and the only cause known for the
crime is that the father had disgraced
himself by getting drunk. Young Nc
Cauley was not a drinking man.

ONE GLIMPSE ENOUGH.

Boston SChOOlmarInS Who Were
Disappointed in an Indian War
Dance.
Indianapolis Journal
When the weather is warm and the
nights little sultry there are several
congenial spirits who cluster about the
office OF English's hotel, who draw their
chairs out on the pavement next to
the street, and, with the help of Mr..
kriel, put in the evening very

Dr. -, one of the company, was at
one time practicing medicine at an old
mission in California where the Indians
used to gather occasionally. loaf
around all day and dispense at night.
There was one old redskin who would
DO the tribes war dance for 25 cents,
and did do it whenever there were
enough curious auditors TO contribute
that amount. The old Indian would re-
tire, and after removing what wearing
apparel he had. grease himself dismally
with paint and come forth in fury, go
through his programme of gyrations
and gruesome vOcaliZatiOns and retire,
to the intense edificatiOn of those who
saw him.
One day some lady "schoolmarm"
tourists from the most decorous quar-
tiers of the East came down to the mis-
sion. The old Indian was, as usual, on
hand, and had soon entered into a con-
tract to do the war dance for them.
The schoolmarms were delighted. The
few people who were around the
mission were surprised to think
those effete Eastern ladies would
care to witness performance so
doubtful of its results, but said moth
