been made. but the feeling Is general
throughout the city that an epidemic is
at hand. sim there has as yet been no

that all southern cites will maintain

Six houses in this city were destroyed
by FIRE between . o'clock and daylight
this morning The flames were discovered
IN a two-story frame building on Ivy
avenue. owned by a man named Myers.
and occupied by NJ Lipshetz. who kept a
grocery store. An alarm was turned in
as quickly as possible, but owing TO the
fact that the house was some distance
from a plug the iremen were unable for
some time TO check the flames. They
Spread rapidly to an adjoining building
owned by A. r. Fleming and then had
things their own way for nearly an hour.
a small shanty, which stood near Mr..
Fleming's house. fed the fire long enough
for II 10 reach a row of seven tenements
belonging to Attorney W. J. Nelms, and
In a short time three Of them were re-
duced to ashes Meanwhile the firemen
had succeeded In stretching line of hose,
and by hard work saved the four remain
ing houses OF the row. They were con-
siderably damaged, however.
LOSS-INSURANCE.
Fleming's house which was valued at
$500. was insured for 500
Meyers. which was held at $1,000. was
insured for $50.
Iipshitz's loss on groceries was $780,
with insurance OF 500.
Mr. Nelm's loss Is not known. but will
probably amount to 5000 He was fully
insured No one knows how the fire
started II was doubtless the result Of
carelessness. however.

LAST NIGHTS transform
The Downpour Ooe ofthe Heaviest Known
in Recent Years.

III
Richmond was visited last night by one
of the heaviest rain-storms of the present
rainy season. The downpour commenced
about half.past o'clock and continued
for over an hour. Many of the cutters
were turned into small streams. and at
points on level stretches of Main street the
water was two or three inches deep.
The rain was accompanied by lncessant
lightning, mostly sheet. but there were in
the distance brilliant forked discharges.
There were only one or two sharp peals of
thunder, but the muttering was almost
continuous.
The storm interrupted street-car traffic
somewhat. An armature on one OF the
cars on the Franklin-stTeet line burned
out. and another car broke down, causing
a delay of about half an hour. On account
of the lightning the current was shut off
the Seven Pines road wires, and the cars
on that line were tired up for awhile,
Lightning struck car No. 20 on the Main
Street line, knocked a piece out of the
bottom of the cluster of lights, and put
the latter out. The MaIn-Street cars were
stopped about forty-fye minutes tor want
of current.
Although Shockoe creek is pretty full,
owing to the back water from the river,
the rain of last night caused no percepti-
bic rise in the stream. At Main and Madi-
sou streets, one of the weak sewer points
in the city, the water was somewhat
banked up but no damage was done to
prOperty.
