DESTRUCTION AT TROY.

Frremen Endure "A Night of Hardship and
Danger in that City.
Troy, n. Y, Dec, 1.-the fire which
broke out in the immense hardware estab-
lishment of j. M. Warren & Co., this after
noon at & o'clock is beyond the control of tho
iiremen. Chief Byron has asked aid from
the Albany department. Troy's fremen
have worked steadily since . o'clock last
night and are exhausted. All the available
hose is now in use and the supply is very
short. Cold weather has rendered much OF
IL unfit for use.
The fire started in the top story, where IL
large quantity of builders tar paper was
stored. 1t was great feed TO the flames and
the smoke WAS so dense that the work of the
tircmen was considerably impeded. The
fire gained the upper hand and at s o'clock
WAS burning fiercely and threatened TO
reach the main building Of the j. M. Warren
company and the wholesale grocery house
of Squires, Sherry < Gllkes, adjoining.
Another Fire Breaks Out.
Another alarm was rung IN for a fire
caused by an explosion of n lamp in Terry's
millinery store in King street. The MILL,
merry store was totally destroyed. Mrs.
Terry, in her endeavors TO rescue some Of
her stock, was overcome by smoke and res
cued with difficulty.
In the meantime the fire in the Warren
building broke out in great fury. IL had
reached the willow ware department aud

a blaze. The iiremen directed their efforts
TO save adjoining property and IN this way
the flames had IA chance 10 increase
until great tongues of fire leaped high
IN the air ana rushed out of every
window. The tiremen and the great
crowd OF spectators were informed by tho
direction OF the proprletors that there were
several hundred kegs of blasting powder
stored in the west end of the fourth story of
the burning structure, and there was "A mad
rush from that vicinity. No explosion has
occurred up TO this writing, 9 O'Clock.
The tremen believe they nave gained the
mastery, although the ire is still burning
tiercely.
&. w. Tilllnghast, president Of tho COM
pany, says the three buildings are worth
500, 900 and the stock s225, 900, There is in
surancc OF siG5, 600 on the stock and So, 0O1

Swine of Arkansas. 3
[St Louis Republic ]

Tho Arkansas hog, if he happens
to be OF the razor-back variety, is
cap,;bie Of developing great speed
AS q racer he has been utilized to
amuse the invalids and loungers at
Hot Springs. Moreover the razor
back hog Of Arkansas is practically y
q stranger 10 cholera and trichIn@,
and bis aosh, what there is OF it,
as II fne, wholesome, gamelike
flavor.
And yet, with all these virtues,
the razol-back is not the tavoritc
no. in Arkansas this year. With
pork at something like II cents a
pound, ii iS only ua ural that hog,
to be popular, should carry q great
er quantity Of potential lard and
bacon to the same or a less quantity
of bone and bfistle. So in Arkan-
SIS, as we'll as elsewhere in the
Southwest, the farmers are forego-
inc the luxury of razor-back game
hogs and sre cultivating the
swine that will take OH fat.
Returns from the back districts
Indicates that there is greater
number OF fatted hogs in Arkansas
this season than at any previous
time in 10 years. Their home
rnado lard and bacon will save lots
OF money to Arkansas farmers, 10
say nothing Of incidcntly abund-
aot backbones, spare ribs, pig-foot,
cbi,terlings, souce and cr.cl<lings.
And YET the talted swine that
pans out so liberally in lard at hog
killing time is not all clear gain
in Arkansas. He is clearly an
economic necessity, but in so far as
he suppIants the razor-back and
the mule-footed hog he is driving
out the best-meated hog that runs
Oh four legs in America.

The union between Sweden and Nor
way is in great danger of being broken.
The two states are loosely tied, but the
Norwegians are impatient of their
slight fetters, and, under cover Of re-
quest for separate foreign agents, seek
total separation. The king in vain
suggested compromise, and is stated
that the radicals have resolved, If he re-
fuses u establish two foreign minis
tries, to resign and refuse the supplies.
II is scarcely possible that the king
should yield. as his foreign policy would
become unworkable-the Norwegians
for example, desire close relations with
Russia-yet, ii he does not, he must oc-
cupy Norway with Swedish troops, to
the confusion of the finances and the
production of another great and def
mite grievance in Norway. The true
motives of the movement are the Nor
wegian dislike of the Swedes, whom
they regard as supcrcilious, and the adj
vance OF thcorctic democracy in Nor
way 10 point inconsistent with any
monarchy at all.

The committee on railroads of the city

beginning at 2 o'clock. on the petition OF
the Uiion Railroad company for permis-
sion to lay rails on Dorrance street. from
EXCHANGE place to DYER street.
Hon. Stephen Nj. Cooke appeared for
tie Interstate road aud called attention
TO the fact that D. tition OF that COM
pany for The sane privilege practically
and claimed that the hearing which had
been adjourned on that matter should
be cont nued.
MIR. Vuse. chairman, said that the con-
tested matter was the crossing "f Ex-
cnaEge D. ace He inquired II there were
other parties than lhe Interstate COM
pany who wished TO oppose the petitio !,
and no one appearing. Ju 'ge Cooke
spoke against the granting or the petf.
zion.
He said that were il not for the act of
OF exclusive franchise gveI 60 the Union
ftfifoad by the genera assembly In isJ@,
they opposed IL, as l. would bar out the
Interstate. Ii the Uni0 Railroad COM
pany would waive all ri-ht TO the
exclusive use OF the street or rails the
Interstate would not object. They did
not want exclusive rights. Dut only the
right t. go through the state. IL under
stood that the Union Railroad company
rails on any street between 1872 "a l9l<
is eXclusive AID ii this Is SO IL becomes a
public matter and applies not 10 the
Interstate alone. but TO the whole city.
The Union X lilroad company Is not the
same company To whom the exclusive
franchise was given. The control had
passed out OF the hands OF local stock
holders into the hands OF those who have
no interest in the city OF Providence
other than that it shall yield 4 dividend
To the hold RS OF stock.
IL, ho ever, the right is granted TO the
Interstate TO lay rails in Dorrance street
IL would not disturb the plans of the
Union Railroad company, but II
TIE other petition is granted all
other roads are for twenty years
shut out. He did not think the
city council wished 20 enact any such
favoring measure. Free competition is
not on,y the lne OF trade, buG the benefit

planned the franchis. as he understood
