GR|zABA ON FIRE At SEA.
The Ward Liner Forced to Put
Back to Havana
Spontaneous Combustion In the Cargo
the Given Cause.

The Ward line steamer Orizaba, which
arrived here yesterday from Havana
and Mexican ports, had a narrow escape
from being burned at sea, like her COM
panion ship. the City of Alexandria.
The Orizaba was some nine hours out
from Havana, when smoke was seen
coming from the after hold. There was
a large cargo OF hemp and sisal on
board, and the blaze promised to be a
serious one.
Capt Hoyt ordered all hands to work
to hght the flames, and the steamer
was headed back to Havana. Just as
she re-entered the port the fire was ex-
tinguished.
A careful examination was made or
her hold by the ships officers in the
presence of the Company's agent. The
fire had broken out among the hemp,
but the cause of 1t was mystery. The
theory or spontaneous combustion was
advanced and accepted, and after the
examination had been completed the
vessel left port again.
The Ward line has been peculiarly

burned at sea on her voyage from Ma
tanzas to Havana, Nov. / of last year.

snip had Just arrived in port, II was
held that the explosive had been placed
there before leaving Havana
Then the ship Seneca was discovered
on hre just as she was about to sail
from Havana, and had to be scuttled
In port to save her.
This series of mishaps led to the belief
that there existed a conspiracy to de-
stroy the ships of the Company. and the
directors decided to employ the best
cure and investigate the matter.
There was nothing whatever in the
conspiracy theory" Commodore Hughes

Detectives worked long and earnestly
on the matter. and finally came to the
conclusion that no conspiracy existed. "

That was a shrewd move OF ours in
getting him to send that communicati ton
to the Council. 1t was only bluff. you
see. He had to do something, because he
expects reelection, and most of the
temperance cranks are In his party.
1T had just the effect we intended 1t
should. 1t made the cranks think Mayor
DAILY was with them. when It's Just the
contrary. He'll be with them on paper
only, see."
Another saloon-keeper offered this in
formation:
THE whole thing will end In a farce.
as usual You see, the temperance folks
began on poor Mike Whelan because his
saloon Is opposite the Mayors home II
you watch the case you'll see Whelan
turned down on the Mayors account
That will be the way the first case will
end, and the temperance movers expect
why Whelan Is jumped on first"
