Big BUILDINGS BURNED
Another Destructive Fire on the
Worlds Fair Grounds.
PROBABLY OF INoENDIARY ORIGIN.

The Terminal Station, Electricity, tho
Mines and Mining. Manufactures, Ag-
rIouIturaI and Other Buildings Laid
Low by the Devouring Element.
CHICAGO July e.-All the main build
ings of the Worlds fair, except the Hor-
ticultural Woman's building, the Art
palace. the Machinery and the United
States government buildings were almost
entirely burned last night. They were
the property of the Columbian Exposition
Salvage company. and had been pur-
chased from the exposition company for
about $4,000.
The fire was discovered by several boys
in the southwestern corner Of the first
floor of the Terminal station. When first
seen 1t was but an inclpient blaze, and the
boys vainly endeavored to stamp 1t out
for several minutes. Before an alarm
could be turned In the fire had reached
the second story Of the building.
Owing to the distance which separated
most of the engine companies from the
scene of the fire there was considerable
delay in getting stream of water upon
the blazing structure. The first alarm
was Immediately followed by three
eleven call and by special call for ten
OF engines were fully at work the Termt-
nal station was mass Of flames, and the
fire had leaped across to the Administra-
tion building In twenty minutes the
dome of this beautiful structure fell, and
blazing brands were carried by the wind
north and northeast to the Mines. Elec-
tricity and Agricultural buildings, and
the others followed in few minutes.
The fire communicated almost stimuli
taneously to the Transportation, the Man
ufactures and the Agricultural build
ings. By hard work, however, the fire.
men succeeded in saving the greater part
of the Transportation building but the
other two buildings were soon enveloped
in flames, and by Oils O'Clock the last of
the framework Of each had fallen In.
Machinery hall was ignited also. The d.
rection of the wind, however. being away
from the building enabled the iremen to
save part of tho structure
The fire Is believed to have been of in
cendiary origin, and the police are investi-
eating.

The Man With Hayseed in His Hair
Is Red Hot After the Scalp of
the Texas Democracy.
AUSTIN, Tex, Jan. q, 1891

AUSTIN, Tex, Jan. y, 1894.
TO the Daily LIGHT:
The political cauldron in Texas
is sizzling now, and ere many
months will be boiling so vigorous
ly that it will be extremely dan
gerous for any son Of Erin to stick
his finger anywhere near it. The
old strife of who is a Democrat and
who is not, is still the main issue.
The split that occurred at Houston
two years ago, when Geo. Clark and
his men went one way, and James
Stephen HOgg and his followers
split. There is truth to tell as
little indication of that split being
closed now as at any time in the
past. For months one side and
then the other have advocated re-
union. The Clark men, though de-
feated at the election two years ago
still argue that they are the true
blue Democrats and are repeated
ly calling to the HOgg men to
come back into the fold and
their sins will be forgiven. On the
other hand the Hogg men claim to
be the only bearers of the "the
true blue" and say that if the Clark
men will come and apologize they
will be forgiven and taken back in
to the family circles as the prOdigal
FNhnG fhn OF 10
Neither side will make concession
and indications point undeni-
ably to the fact that there
are going to be two
Democratic parties in Texas fol

to meet in convention assembled
They beg leave to question tn,
