hoqr so fraught with danger
and so full Of distress elsewhere is
most convincing proof of the solid
lounuatlon upon which rests the pros

MORE FACILITIES AT QUARANTINE.
Mr.. Chr. G. Dahl, chairman of the
river and harbOr committee, reported that
the Wharves at quarantine are totally in
adequate Tor commerce, and suggests the
enIarglng or building of new wharves,
IN order to facilitate the rapid discharg-
ing OF ballast. At present there is room
Tor only two vessels, while there should
be room for at least six. A complaint
was made that sailing yes sells are COM
pelle9 to discharge their entire ballast.
While they intend TO keep a part on board
Tor stlfening under cotton or naval
stores, and are not allowed to retain il
even If they wash each particular stone
with earbolic acid. They are also re-
quIred TO pay duty on stone which was
required to purchase more stone for
ballast to replace that discharged.
A resolution was passed protesting
against the condition of the Central rail-
road naval stores yards, which are liable
TO be oyerhOwed with any unusual rain
fall.
TIE RAILROAD SITUATION
The committee on transportation re-
ported that the only new development
has been the completion of the Florida
Central and Peninsular road into Savan-
nan, connecting with the South Bound
road, which completes about GOO miles
OF rail north and south entering this city
The Florida Central and Peninsular, with
its connection with the East Tennessee,
Virginia and Georgia at Everett, the com
mlttee said, will be a strong competitor
OF the Central and Savannah, Florida and
Western railways for western business
coming here, were the road properly
equipped with warehouses and storage
capacity. considerable quantity of
grain, hay, flour, etc, has been received
over that line. Notwithstanding the fact
that the Florida Central and Peninsular
is supposed to be competitor of the Sa-
vannah, Florida and Western and Plant
systems for Florida business, the com
mittee said the rates from Savannah to
various points in Florida by their lines
are almost prohibitory TO business. This
relates more particularly to the grain
trade, and the committee advised inYesti-
cation.
John r. Young, w. r. Leaken and
Fl. A. Crane were appointed a committee
to urge before congress the building of a
breakwater at Tybee in accordance with
President PURSES recommendation
w. B. F'arr was reelected weigher and
inspector of hay and grain.

nre was caused Dy a spark from one OF
the electric light wires behind the organ
in the tabernacle.
Last evening a meeting Of the direct
ors was held and it was decided to re-
build, and work will begin within a year.
A mortgage for $4,000 on the taber-
nacle is held by Russell Sage, who will
not press the society for payment.
The tabernacle occupied a plot of
ground 200x11S feet in dimensions.
The style of architecture was Roman
esque, the material corsehil stone and
rainwashed brick in red mortar. The
roof was covered with Spanish tiles.
The main tower, at Green and Clinton
avenues, stood 100 feet in height.
The front wall Of the tabernacle is all
that is standing to-day of that edifice
Workmen have been engaged all day

the church was seething, roaring mass
of flames inside Of thirty minutes
after the fire was discovered
and by l o'clock the roof and
the handsome steeple had fallen in.
Great jets of flame shot across the open
space between the tabernacle and the
Hotel Regent, which is next to the
church on Clinton Avenue, and in a
short space of time that portion of the
hotel nearest the church was burning
fiercely. The Regent is family hotel.
The guests fed in dismay. Some of
them stopped to throw their valuables
and clothing from the windows, while
others hurried to places of safety just
as they happened to be appareled when
the panic struck them.

COKE STRIKERS ARE UGLY.
Several Persons Roughly Handled
by the Foreigners-A Tunnel
Blown Tn.

UN1oNrowN, Pa, May 14.-The coke
strikers are showing more lawless
spirit in this end of the region to-day
than ever before. The strikers assembled
at Percy and drove the men from work.
At Fair Chance workman was taken
out by the strikers, tied to post
and given severe whipping with
horsewhip. The house of an
other was surrounded and all
the windows broken with stones.
The region is excited over the reported
attempt to blow up the Morgan tunuel
on the State Line Raill DAD with dyna-
mite. The destruction of this tunnel
would prevent the shipment of raw coal
from the Monongahela River mines.
The report has not been verified. The
strikers have leased 100 acres Of land
near Hill Farm and will camp out with

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 1.-THE ap-
neal of John Y. McKane to the United
States supreme court was decided
against McKane to-day, Justice Harlan
delivering the opinion. McKane in
his appeal contended that he
should have been allowed to 60 out
on bail pending the appeal, as the
constitution meant to confer that
right in all but capital cases. The
Justice held that the matter Of bail IN
such a case was entirely within the
Jurisdiction of the state court. Also
that the warden of Sing Sing prison had
no RIGHT to return McKane to the
sheriff of New York pending the ap-
peal, as the appeal had no effect upon
his IMPRISONMENT in Sing Sing prison.
