a loss of fully half a, million dollars.

elevator of F. N. Quale & Co.. on the

pied as a museum and theatre This

the chief retail street of the city, in
juring the Hartford block but the fire
here was checked without great dam
age. In the rear of this building was
the office of the Postal Telegraph COM
pany The manager removed all the
apparatus possible, thus cutting off all
the telegraph communication for a time
as the Western Union offices and in
strumentS were destroyed. The two

of Water and Madison streets, diago-
nally across from the Quale elevator,

Peixoto Arranging His Fleet.

New York, Jan. S.-The Herald Mon
tevideo special: Peixoto is believed to
be arranging to get all his ships to-
gether before attacking Mello's navy.
He has sent dispatch to Toulon ord
ering the Riachulao and Benjamin Con-
slant, building there, to proceed to Per-
nambuco with all speed. 1t is under
stood these two ships are far from

The Herald special from Lima says
the government has seized boys twelve
years old in the streets and forced
them to enter the ranks as soldiers.
1t is impossible to bury the corpses at
the cemetery. because the grave diggers
have been pressed into the army.

ceived at. the treasury department
says the shipment of bonded goods
from Jackson park during the past
week showed little, if any, improve
ment over the previous week. The
approximate estimate is that 23,654
cases are packed ready for shipment,
and the shipping papers are ready
The cases shipped previous to Decenl-
Der rs amounted to 1880. This esti-
mate was handed in on the 18th, and
shows that about 1000 more packages

going on much more rapidly than the
shipments The excess of receipts

Breezy Budget From the Four
Quarters of the World.

Pernambuco, Jan. -[copyrighted by
the Associated Press. There now
seems to. be little likelihood of meet
ing between the government cruisers
Nictheroy and America, and the insur-
gent vessels under command of Adj
miral Mello 1t is understood he has
started north from Rio to engage the
Nictheroy, but learning that she had
been reinforced by the America, he
turned about
1t was first reported from Rio that
the commanders of the United States
and German warships had notified the
rebel admiral at Rio that the fire of
his ships must be so directed as not to
interfere with the German and A1neri-
can vessels at anchorage used for
loading and discharging. According to
stories enanating from the govern
ment and from rebel sources, each de-
clares the other at the end of its rope
and on the point of giving up the
struggle.

THEY MAY FIGHT.
Chances Are Better for the Thugs
to Come Together.

Jacksonville, Jan. Sunless some
thing of an unexpected nature turns
up, the Corbett- Mitchell battle will
surely take place. 1t is probable the
original plan will be fully carried out,
but, if it is found impossible to pull the
fight off in this city, a secret battle
ground will be selected within the linn
its of Duval or st. Johns county, and
the contest will go on as if nothing had
happened. This is the gist of the ar
arrangements that have been made within
the last few days. Corbett yesterday
signed the new articles agreeing to
fight at any place in Florida named
by the club.
Mitchell at first refused, but today
signed under the new articles. Each
man will furnish lis own gloves.
Within a short time legal proceedings
will be instituted by the DuvaI club,
testing the legality of the contest Elk
actly what these will be is not stated
by the club people, but it is a notorious
fact that as no jury can be found in Du-
val county to decide against the battle, it
is pretty certain the outcome will be
favorable to the club. If Governor
Mitchell then sees fit to step in and
lintefere, all the plans for a fight in
Jacksonville will be dropped and a new
battle ground selected. The location
will, of course, be kept secret until
| January 25. 1t will puzzle the governor
to know what course to pursue to pre-
vent the meeting. Tomorrow it is ex-
pected a license viii be applied for
which, under the new city ordinance
passed yesterday, over the mayors veto
must be granted
Corbett was in town tonight, togeth-
er with Brady and others of the party
All attended the performance at the
opera house, after which they returned
to the hotel. They will return to May
port tomorrow and Corbett will re-
sumo training at once
Mitchell is trained down to about the
! condition in which he VIII enter the
ring He said today-he was o little
sore from hard work, but would be
ready to fight within a week if neces
sary. He expresses confidence in his
ability to whip Corbett, and says he is
longing for the day when they will
meet. 80
For the first time the Corbett party
really believes the fight will take place

nor will interfere. The lawyers. how.
ever. think he will but say that il
will amount to nothing, as he has
no ground upon which to act The
story about troops being called GU
has died down, and those most fearful
are the loudest in saying nothing of the
kind will happen.
Altogether, it seems as though the
champions Of England and America
would at last come together and the
question of supremacy be settled.

Marines for Cameroons.

Berlin, Jan. 3.-One hundred and
forty marines left Kiel today for
Cameroons. 1t is reported that other
marines are held in readiness to start

had earned their ransom money.
When the German cruiser Hyaena left
these Dahomeyans demanded they be
paid wages the same as the other
police. When their demand was re-
fused they revolted. There is much
speculation as to what transpired. at
the meeting of the Prussian cabinet
yesterday. 1t was unusually protract-

Ten Anarchists in the Tolls.

Madrid Jan. S.-Telegrams from Bar
celona say ten arrested anarchist
leaders were handed over by the civil
authorities to the military authorities
owing to the fact that the latter have
declared the prisoners were accomplices
of Pallas in the attempt upon the life
of General Campos, and must conse-
quently be tried by martial law.
The anarchists were terror-stricken
when handed over to the officers, as it
was expected they were being led out
for immediate execution. 1t is believed
ten of the leaders of the anarchists
will soon be tried yscourt martial and
will be executed by being shot in the
back, after the manner followed out in
the case of. Palfas in front Of Mount
Zurich castle.

Greater Loon Than Prendergast.

large revolver appeared at the county
Jail today and asked to see Prender-
CAST, Mayor Harrison's condemned ass

him q minute, as he was commissioned
by the Lord to make Prendergast walk
out free man. The crank was ar
rested. He gave the name of Fred
Names.
Names said the killing of Harrison
was done because it was necessary,
and was in answer to a prayer to God
twenty-four hours before the killing;
Prendergast, therefore, was innocent.

Another Free Puff.

Jacksonville. Jan. Sit was learned
late tonight that the managers of the
Duval club propose to pull off the con-
test just as the Sullivan Kilrain fight
was at Richburg, Miss, in 1889. They
will select a suitable place and charter
special trains to transport the crowds.
No one is to know the site except the
club managers In this way the club
hopes to out-wit the governor, believ-
ing if the site is kept a, secret he can
not get sufficient force in time to pre-
vent the fight.
