The Most Disastrous Fire Of the Year
at Baltimore.

BALTIMORE, June 14-One of the largest
fires that have ever visited the waterfront OF
Baltimore started at o'clock this afternoon
on the Old Bay Line wharf The freight
shed of the Bay Line Company, fully
stocked with cotton, whisky and general
merchandise, mostly consigned 20 foreign
firms, was totally destroyed. The fire is
thought TO have originated in the eotton by
spontaneous combustion. Quick as a flash
the flames spread and the most intense ex-
element reigned along the entire water
front.
The Bay Line wharf was totally de-
StTOyed. The wharf had on IL, besides the
large warehouse, q big laundry and newly
erected Office building.
The schoOners Carmina and MastOn were
lying OF the wharf, and before they could be
tOwed from IL they were badly damaged, as
were the four-masted ice schOoners Wesley
Over. Mamie Howard and William Writ.
The flames were finally conquered, but not
until considerable damage was done. The
rigging and c0Tdage Of the schooner
masts and huh charred and the vessel left
blackened wreck. The estimated damage
to the schooner is S25,000, fully insured.
The Ice was valued at 81 per ton, and she
had 1000 tons on board.

All around the Bay Line wharf were
warehouses stored with tons OF the most
infiammable material, and the hremen
worked like beavers to prevent the spread
of the flames. The heat at this time was
distressing, and the fremen were compelled
TO strip and many of them became ex-
hauSt5d by heat During a portion Of the
time work was impeded by streams Of
molten resin that flooded the streets and
ran into the water.
On the wharf were 5000 bales of cotton,
worth $40 10 $50 a bale and 1O00 barrels of

says: cleveland win have no walkover,
but the Democratic leaders at Washington
believe the ex-President will have to fight
hard for the nomination, German is the
choice of apparently a majority of his Sena-
tOrial cOnfreres"
OF the platform the correspondent says:
''An effort to obtain a strong civil service
reform plank in the Democratic national
platform is being made by the Democratic
members of Congress interested in the sub
ject, and the silver plank is the subject of
considerable discussion among them. The
silver men seem less disposed to make an
aggressive fight than the representatives. of
the mining States at the Republican con-
vention. The opponents of free coinage are
not expecting much difficulty in obtaining
plank they want, and the friends of free
coinage have evidently lost heart by re-
peated defeats in the Democratic ranks
Senator Stewart, the Republican silver
agtatOr from Nevada, said, in reply to
question as to what the Democrats would
do Oil the silver question: Bah! they will
do the same as the Republicans Why, The
gold bugs would send 81. .OO0 coo, or g., 900, 600
If necessary, to buy up the whole conven-
ton"
Representative Bland, the Democratic
free coinage advocate, is equally hopeless.
The fact that one of the counties in his dis
trict recently adopted resolutions advising
that the tariff be made the predominant
issue. seems to have killed his ard0r. All
that could be got from him as to whether an
earnest fight would be made at Chicago for
free silver coinage was. Il do not know;

FARMERS WILL FUSE.

Carry Kansas.


WICHITA, June IA. - Delegates 10 the
Farmers Alliance State convention, which
meets tomorrow to nominate a full State
ticket. are discussing only one question
"Shall the Farmers Alliance fuse with the
Domocrats?" At recent conference of the
Alliance and Democratic leaders at kansa
City plan OF fusion was fully arranged. A
portion OF the plan was executed to-day at
Emporia, when the Farmers Alliance n0mi-
mated L. V. Wharton for Congress. who is
an eX-DemOcrat, whom the Democrats in
dorsed. The question now is will the rest
of the plan be carried out. There is a
strong fusion sentiment among the more
conservative delegates, and the leaders
realize that without Democratic aid they
cannot hope for success. 1t looks tonight
as if the fusion idea would prevail.

gress this afternoon will probably kill his
