Destructive Fire at Thomas.

~
Shortly after twelve o'clock Sun
day night fire was discovered In the
store of Swisher & Co., in the Town
Hall building at Thomas. The fire
spread rapidly and in few minutes
the building was in flames. The
fire communicated from house to
house until nine buildings were de-
stroyed. Swisher & Co. lose a small
amount of goods; L. Barnsteln,
merchandise, 81, 300; ". A. Rode
haver, two wagons; Peter Smith,
residence, $500; Oscar Pase, two
dwellings, 81, 300; F. S. Landstreet,
dwelling, s70C; David Scott, resi-
dence. 5000; A. Schatz, residence,
$500. A dwelling occupied by a
Polander was also burned. The
Landstreet Cornet Band lost 800,
while il the knights of Pythlas, Odd
Fellows, Mystic Chain and Jr. O.
U. A. M. lodges lost all their para
phernalia and books, and Andrew
Warner a lot Of carpenter tools.
The Town Hall belonged to a joint
stock company, and the loss falls
on a large number of persons. The
jail was the property of the town
and was worth about $4OO. The
above losses fall very heavily on
several of these individuals, and is
quite a misfortune to the town.
The fire is believed to be of incen-
diary origin and arrests will likely
follow. The losses as given above
are estimated. Piedmont Herald.
Secretary Carter Dead.
The officials of the Health De-
partment were startled TO-DAY by
the receipt of a telegram from
Mountain Lake Park announcing
the death there of A Robert Carter,
secretary of the Board of Health.
Ms oaFssT Tas S1s IS SRs 9sa IF sge 4aaHd
enjoyed remarkably good health,
and up to last Tuesday was at his
desk in the City Hall.
The warm weather greatly affected
the venerable secretary, and on
Tuesday he collapsed. For time
he was unconscious, and it required
the energetic efforts Of Health Com
missioner McShane and his assist
ant, DR.. Spicer, to restore him to
consciousness.
That afternoon Mr.. Carter went
to Mountain Lake Park, one of
Maryland's summer resorts IN Gar
rett county. 1t had been the i'm
preston at the City Hall that he
was improving, and the news con-
tanned in the following telegram to
DR.. McShane caused great shock:
"Mr. Carter suddenly collapsed
into insensibllity this morning.
Two physicians tried in vain to re-
store consciousness. He died at
11.3O O'clock"
While no further information re-
garding his death was sent it was
thought that Mr.. Carter had faint
ing spell similar to the one he ex-
perienced on Tuesday. He had
been a sufferer at times from acute
indigestion, and this was probably
the cause of his death.
The body Of Mr.. Carter will be
removed from Mountain Lake Park
and taken to his home at 1884 Cal
vert street, Baltimore. News, FRI
day.

-Four Men Allowed to Perish In Lake
Michigan.

Four Men Allowed to Perish I'm Lake
Michigan.
CHICAGO, May 15.--Four lives were
lost in Lake Michigan off Lake Bluff
Saturday apparently through the negli-
gence OF the people on shore. A lady
walking on the beach Friday afternoon
saw small sailing vessel some distance
ont fying. signals of distress. Through
q glass she could see four men on board.
She reported the matter to laborers at
the campmeeting grounds, but they
laughed at the story. For some unac-
countable reason nobody thought any
thing more of the matter until
Saturday afternoon, when some
boys, who had been watching
the craft from the shore, reported
that they saw itgiye lurch and every
thing disappeared but the top mast.
Then interest was taken in the matter
and some men went out in boat. They
found the body OF John Larsen lashed TO
the mast but the others had foated
away. An Investigation revealed the
fact that Larsen, Charles Landberg,
Peter johnson and John Swanson started
from Wsukegan for Chicago Friday
morning, intending to sell the yacht
when they reached here. The craft was
in bad condition and became unmanage-
able in high wind and the unfortunate
men found graves in the lake.

take that fact into consideration. An
other feature OF this most anQmalous
business is that an appeal was taken to
the Supreme Court Of the United States
from the New York courts, and that q
decision on that appeal was held over
the 9th OF May, the day appointed for
the deportation Of such Cinnamon as
failed to register. Under such circum-
stances, and the fact that the govern
msnt has provided no means for the
deportation OF such large numbers
Of the heathen, an extension of the
date of deportation is an ac-
complished fact, and there can be no
question but that it will be still furthef
extended. Means must be devised to
carry out the expressed will OF the
nation If the Chinese should still con-
tinue recalcitrsnt. II, after final de-
cision in the courts, the case is, IS it
surely will be, decided against them, all
unregistered Cinnamon should be
packed bodily over to Cathay, bag and
baggage, scrip and scrippage. After the
court had delivered its several opinions
yesterday, counsel for the Chinese
moved rehearing and argument before
full bench, at the next term OF the
court. The judges took the matter
under advisement, and till this motion
is disposed OF the federal officials will
have time to determine upon their
course. 1t is somewhat perplexing, to
say the least. There are neither ships
to carry the Chinese home nor officers
to herd them together.
1t will somewhatsu surprise Californians
to see the name of Mr.. Justice Field
amongst the dissenting judges on this
issue. It would naturally be supposed
that this distinguished jurist would have
been grouped on the other side.
If the motion for rehearingF should
be dismissed the necessity for instant
action will be upon our officials, and
what they propose to do is a matter for
curious speculation. One thing is GER
tain, they will have to fish or cut bait.
1t will become, to very striking extent,
case Of "Why stand ye' here idle."

to stand in with the enemies Of their
party. We have watched the career of
many such Democrats. Wesnever knew
one of them to last very long, either in
national, state or local politics. The
Democrat who believes that everything
should be done for Republicans and
nothing for Democrats, at last plays in
the other alley, and things do not go 80
smoothly as they went before. All Of
which leads up to the political axiom,
approved in hundred years in the
United States, that, in ninety-nine cases
out of hundred-we leave the excep-
tion that proves the rule-it is the
square Democrats that hold the fort.

NO HOPE FOR THEM.

Murderers McNu1ty and Vincent Must
Die on tho Gai1ows.
WASHINGTON, May 15.-The appeals OF
McNnlty and Vincent from the judg-
ment of the supreme court Of California
affirming the judgment Of the county
courts, sentencing them under convie-
tion for murder, were dismissed by the
supreme court of the United States to-
day. In these cases the construction
and effect of the state law amending the
law governing the execution of GRIM
inala was involved, and the supreme
court said this was not a federal ques-
ton, and the appeals would have to be
dismissed for the want of jurisdiction.
Carroll Cook was present when Chief
Justice Fuller read the opinion of the
court in the McNulty and Vincent cases.
The decision Of the court in effect is
that it cannot interfere with the decree
of the California court in its construc.
ticn of a California law. II the Cali
fornia court had not gone back on,-its
first decision and delivered another
opinion on another phase OF the case the
United States might have entertained
tn6 motion.
Cook has obtained from the court 10
days stay OF mandate in order
to give him time to secure
stipulations from the attorney-general.
Cook says he has two other appeals
pending in the California courts, and
something further will be done upon his
return to California about June lst. He
admits, however. that the cases Of Nc
Nulty and Vincent are we'll nigh hope
less, as are also those Of Bruggy and
others in which the same questions are
involved.
FRESNO, May 15.--When the news Of
the adverse decision of the United States
supreme court reached Fresno in the
case of DR.. f. O.,Yincent, Sheriff Scott
searched him, changed his clothing, put
him in new cell, and set q death
watch. Vincent still says he will not
hang, but is nervous.

SOLD OUT AGAIN.

There was one thing highly satisfact-
ory about the action OF the city council
yesterdsy--it showed that we have no
Democratic representation in that body,
outside OF the Messrs. Gaffey and Pessels
when it comes to the police board. 1t is
good to know where you stand. The
HERALD has known from the start ex-
actly how the thing would develop. We
have not been deceived. The play was
made from the beginning to hand the
police force over to the Republicans.
They have got it. They will keep it.
Meanwhile the farce win 80 on of nom
inal Democratic majority in the police
board keeping in Chief Glass and his
special pets. But the HERALD gives fair
notice that the last word has not been
said about this dickerin which the fruits
OF a great victory at the polls have been
coolly bartered away. A vote has at last
been had on the matter. The people
know exactly how the vote went and
what its significance is. They have long
memories, and the whirligig of time at
last makes all things even. Perhaps
even the people who sold out the Demo
cratic party may admit the necessity OF
having an efficient police force? The
mere fact that they have turned it over
to their opponents ought not to be al
lowed to work injury to the citizen. II
we are to have 'snivel" service ad
ministration OF the police department it
ehoold not be forgotten that the idea
underlying the said "sniyel" service is
to have an efficient administration of the
several bureaux and trusts to which it
applies. On this phase of the matter we
ehall have something to say hereafter,
and we shall not open up on it until we
have secured an abundance of facts that
cannot be controverted.
Now let the Democratic city commit
tee meet and formally read the Messrs.
Nickel and fnnes out Of the party. Pre-
serve the integrity OF the Democratic
organization and enforce it's discipline at
all hazards. Let it be understood once
for all and forever that men elected on
the Democratic ticket are expected to
act as Democrats. When it has done
this good work let it adjourn sine die.

MR. JAMES ADDISON REAvts is around
again in Los Angeles, as s'usual, latter that
500, 900. He is as clipper and con-
fident as ever, and is q living example OF
the old sdage that hope eprings eternal
in the human breast. The commission
which is investigating the matter held
q session in this city yesterday. No
recollection OF Jarndyce vs.. Jarndyce,
tho Gaines or McGarigle cases, have the
slightest effect in dampening Resvis's
perennial cheerfulness. He belongs to
the "never say die" order, for fact,
and some people would like to see him
succeed just to reward his pluck. 1t is
generally underatood that he has quite
substantial pecuniary backing, and the
prosecution OF his claim is supposed to
have already absorbed $250,000.

Tr is estimated that twill take $6,000,-
600 to deport the Chinese from the
United States, while there are said to be
only $4,000 available for that purpose.
This reminds one of the gambler who
exclaimed: 81 lost ten Thousand dol
lars last night" Observing the looks of
sympathy on the faces of his hearers he
added, Eyes, and the worst thing about
it is that 800 oft WAS in cash." Uncle
Sans proportion OF money to possible
deportation demands bears about the
game relation that Falstaff's bread did

'LAY away an old coat five years and
it will become new" says the old say
ing. But does the same principle apply
to n horse? The Virginia horse Dlablo,
that won the great Brooklyn handicap
yesterday, has history somewhat akin
to this. He is seven years old and,
while he wss not the peer OF Salvador,
Longstreet, Proctor Knott or Spokane,
he was e very good 3-yesr-old in 1889
The next year he performed only fairly
well, being out-classed completely by
Tenny, Salvador and number of others.
In his fve-year-old form he WAS of no
earthly account, and was early with
drawn and given a resting spell OF
eighteen months. Out of this he
emerged with lots of pace; and, being
lightly weighted, managed to romp home
ahead Of the great 4.year-old Lamp

THE GEARY ACT DECLARED CoNsrITU-
lu 81 TIONAL.

.@ The HERALD has held all along that
the supreme court of the United States
WAS certain to declare the Geary act
constitutional. 1t is in the very nature
of sovereignty that any power has
right to decide what persons shall be
admitted to its hospitality. This right
is absolute, and admits of no limitations
except by special treaty, and that is
largely. of grace. OF course civilized
nation is expected to exercise its re-
served and inahenable right of admit
ting or rejecting foreigners in subordi-
nation to an unwritten law that is called
the comfy OF nations; but of the right
itself there can be no question. 1t is
precisely because we have recognized
this right.on the part OF China that we
have not battered those people with
''mortar, paixhan and petard" for not
allowing Americans to travel through
any hut very limited portions of China.
The provisions of the Geary act have
been,in no sense cruel or unusual. They
are in no respect more sweeping than
were the passport regulations that ex-
listed in France, for instance, 20 years
ago, or those which at present exist in
Russia, and under whose provisions
Americans, Englishmen, and persons of
all nationalities are subject today. In
fact, the Geary, act is very mucn more
simple and agreeable than these pass
port regulations, ss a mere photograph
is made to do duty for the tedious de-
scription and terminology of the pass
port. The pfetence that there is any
thing oppressive or tyrannical in the ac'
is absurd. II any American on hif
travels learned that he could 90 through
the Celestial kingdom by simply supply

to his signature he would be delighted

with trihing but necessary formula, h,
would be protected in such rights as. b
had acquired, at the same sime that
at least measurably secured the United
States from the further infraction O
laws which had been notoriously in
fringed for years.
We are now face to face with the fac
that, out of 10000 Cinnamon in th
United States, only $500 of them hav
complied with the law. Under tn
terms of the Gsary act 106,500 China

Inhabitants of Rival Towns Fight at

BRAZIL, Ind, May 15.-News of a
bloody fight in the little mining town of
Benwood, this county, reached here to-
day. Benwood and Cardonia are rival
mining towns, and have often bloody
wars over arguments of supremacy. Sat-
urday night dance was given at Bep-
wood, and crowd of rs went from Car
donia with the avowed intention of MAX
ing trouble. A fight ensued, in which
about so persons participated. The
women were routed, and for an hour the
air was filled with chairs, revolvers and
knives. When the smoke cleared away
it wac found that no less than 80 people
were cut and bruised, some very seri-
ouely, and had to be carried nom the
field. The officers of the law were un-
able to suppress or even check the riot,
and further hostilities are looked for.

Ir is a question of how much con

the morale of party. II it is shut alb
solutely out of place and power the
experience may have a stimulating
effect, as witness the case of the DEMO-

waxed strong under defeat. Notwith-
standing this stimulating effect, how
ever, the Democratic party struggled
from 1856 to 1884 before it won a presi-
Dental election, or, at least, enjoyed the
fruits of one. That was a long gap of
twenty.eight years, and it embraced
seven presidential terms. AT the begin

sagecous leadership, the Democratic
party ought never to lose presidential
election. 1t ought to1carry three-fourths
of the states and all the larger cities
It ought to shape the policy o.
the country for the next twenty-five
yeara. That 1t does not do what
it onght to do is owing to the
TACT that the spirit of union is frequently
lacking. No Democrat seems TO thinl

tend to theirs. In fact, Democrats fre
