BLAINES y! 4 OPINION. 1I''][.I
The E1-srcretary Is Interviewed by a
Reporter Of the New York
Herald.
He Is Of Opinion That the Republicans
Have Very Good Prospects
This Year.
Mrs. Lease Denies the Statements Cred.
tied to Either Cleveland or
Harrison Calamity.

NEW YORK, Oct. 10. The Herald
prints an interview with Mr.. James q.
Blaine in which the latter says:
From what I have seen and heard ]
am inclined to believe that the Republi-
can chances for success are particularly
cheerful. In the campaign Of argument
and discussion, such as this has been,
everything is in our favor for we have
by far the better sides of the great
questions before the people. Besides
this, President Harrison has given the
country an able administration and one
that appeals to the people by whatever
standard it may be tested. The admin
istration is in itself one Of the greatest
arguments for President Harrison's re-
election.
Cali that is now needed to insure a
Republican victory, and the continual
tion of prosperity throughout the coun-
try, is for the Republican voters to cast
their ballots. With our full strength
out we regard our success as almost
certain.
'.While there has not been so much
excitement as in other campaigns, do
not think that is any proof Of lack Of
interest in the election. 1t is the natural
result of the manner in which the CAM
paign is being conducted. People are
reading more and thinking more, and
not making SO much noise about it.
They are just as earnest as ever, as the
heavy early registration shows"

w,sconsin's ossifisd Man Dead.

RACINE, Oct. 19.-Curtis Hicks, Ra-
cine's ossifed man, who was considered
a rival Of the late Jonathan 3assett,
died at his home during the afternoon.
Mr.. Hicks was born in Hickstown, N.
Y, fifty-four years ago. April 2t, 1879,
he was taken sick. Physicians said it
was infiammatcry rheumatism, but it
proved to be one Of those few and re-
markable cases of ossifcation, the feet,
toes, ankles, legs, knee joints and even
hips were perfectly ossifed. His mind
was clear up to the time of his death;
still he was like dead man and had not
been able to help himself or move for
over twelve years and was handled like
piece Of board.

Another Strike Threatened,

San ANTONIO, Tex, Oct. 10. -Advices
have been received here that the Mexi-
can railway is threatened to be tied up
with q strike. The trouble began three
days ago, when the American machin-
lists employed in the shop in the City of
Mexico went out on q strike. They de-
manded an increase of go cents per day.
They were then receiving 81 per day.
The railroad company refused to accede
to the demands and the dissatisfaction
spread to the shops at San Luis Potosi
and the machinists there have also
walked out. The engineers and tiremen
are expected to quit work if the machin-
lists demands are not acceded to.

viii Paw the Fees.

ST. PAUL, Oct 1y.-The state oil in
spector has arranged with the oil COM
panies to pay the fees for inspection over
which there have been so many legal
wrangles. The state supreme court
decreed that the fees should be paid, but
held that the inspector was not the
proper party to bring the suit. The
companies threatened to carry the case
to the United States supreme court, but
have at length decided to come to time
and settled in full for the back dues.

Chicago's Elephant Gets Loose and Makes
Things Lively for Awhile.
CHICAGO, Oct. 19.-The elephant at
Lincoln park went on the rampage in
the usually quiet neighborhood of the
park about 8 o'clock a. III. The huge
animal, which is not yet named, having
possibly eaten something for breakfast
which disturbed his internal economy,
grew suddenly wicked, anu breaking
away from his corral started across
country as if he were back in his native
jungles once more. Right through trees
and shrubbery, tramping them fiat with
the earth in his wild career, the huge
beast tore across the park to Clark
street, then south to Wisconsin, making
the air hideous with his discordant
trumpetings and shaking the build
ings as he passed. He turned
on Sedgwick street and continued
his way to Center avenue,
followed by an immense crowd of peo-
pie. Horses and men ran in wild alright
to cover, as the elephant passed. A milk
wagon was passing its accustomed
course on Sedgwick street. The ele-
phant struck it and knocked it dozen
yards away, spreading milk cans and
driver promiscuously on the ground and
killing the horse. The man was badly
hurt also.
Horses on the street cars stampeded,
and there were numerous narrow es-
capes Of passengers from serious injury.
At last, at Center and Clark streets, the
keepers succeeded in heading off the
animal, and throwinga number of lines
about him, brought him to full stop
by making them fast to stout tree.
After futile efforts to escape again the
elephant quieted down and was finally
led back to Lincoln park.

Chicago's Elephant Gets Loose and Goes
on the Rampage-Horse Killed
and Man Injured.

CHICAGO, Oct. 19.-F'ire that broke out
at 4 a. m. in Englewood, did damage to
the extent of half a million dollars. One
woman was killed by jumping from a
third story window in hotel. Bodies
Of some of the guests are supposed to be
still under the debris. Those who es-
eaped did so in their night robes, and
had close calls at that Strong winds
carried the flames to house block
away, which SO alarmed the people liv-
ing between the two fires that about
twenty families moved out into the
street. A dozen more homeless, and the
charity Of the people has an opportunity
Of displaying itself. Firemen battled
manfully for hours to confine the flames
within block, but could not prevent
damage to adjacent buildings from the
intense heat.
Half Of the block south of Sixty-third
street, between Wright and Honore,
was made up, for the most part of frame
buildings. -Four brick structures only
were in the row. The corner at Sixty
third and Honore was occupied by
frame structure. The next four were
the brick ones and the rest of the block
had frame buildings. 1t now has moth
ing but ruins, four brick walls being the
only things left standing. The first Of
the brick buildings was occupied by
paint store and it was in this that the fire
originated. 1t is supposed TO have been
started by sponstaneous combustion of
the oils. At any rate the oils furnished
fuel and added ferceness to
the fire.
Above the paint store and the next
building occupying the second and
third stories, was the Hotel Kent. 1t
had about thirty rooms and no less than
twenty-five guests were in the house.
There was an unusually strong wind
blowing and the fire was famed so
fercely that the first warning the people
in the house had was the swapping of
the glass in their windows. There was
no time to save anything. Men dashed
for the doors and women shlieked.
Mrs. Bntler, aged about 20 years,
daughter Of the proprietor Of the hotel,
occupied room on the third floor. She
was awakened by the dense smoke. She
found the halls filed and turned
toward the window. In her night robe
she leaned out and appealed for help.
In the grey dawn she was most pitt
able looking sight. Firemen and police
men below shouted to her not to jump,
but she either did not hear or she mis-
understood them. She threw herself
headlong and fell on the pavement
Her head struck first and she was picked
up corpse.
\Other people in the hotel went down
TIP stairways, but it is feared all did
not get out. Not more than two OF
three had time to dress. Nearly all
were more or less affected by the heat,
one mans full beard being burned to
his face.
From the hotel the flames communi-
Gated rapidly to each successive build
ing along the street. They spread so
quickly that almost no furniture was
saved Flames were reaching nearly

was at the bottom of the hole, twenty

head of Waid and the filled bucket drop
