FIRE IN NEW YORK.

An Extensive Conhagratton on the |
River Front.
By Telegraph to the State Chronicle.
Nzw YORK, May 6.-The whole
block bounded by First avenue and the
East river between 45th and 46th
streets and occupied by Schwarzchild
& Sulzberger, extensive meat dealers,
was almost totally destroyed by fire
this morning. The block consisted of
a series of buildings four stories high.
The fire speedily gained headway and
the seven large vats in the tallow
house were soon in flames, while a
muffled explosion followed, which scat
tered the boiling fat all over the build
ing, giving rise to innumerable small
fires, so that in a few seconds, the
whole building next to the river
front was a mass of flames. In
a very short time, the fire
had pierced the "-alls, and running
through the adjoining buildings, the
whole square block was soon sea of
flames. In the basement of the slaugh-
ter house, which was the last of the
buildings to catch on fire, were 700
bullocks and 700 sheep. The total loss
is estimated at fully $SOO,OOO or ST.
100000, and it was we'll insured. Two
fremen had their legs broken by fall
ing beams.
What One Cotton Will Does For one
Section.
! Clinton Caucasian.
In speech a few days ago, Col.
James L. Orr, president of the Pied
mont 'cotton mills, made several
statements. One was that bale of
cotton that is made into cloth in the
state brings $40 bale instead of $35,
or just double the money.
Another was that the mill company
of which he is president alone pays
to the labor of the Piedmont section
of the state over 81 100000 annually.
Still another was what the company
is "giving 1900 children ten months
education every year with no expense
to them" These statements are full OF
suggestion for the future of the cotton
States. A word to the wise is suffi.
cient.
