An Evident Attempt to Burn the

Another Midnight Blaze.

AsBURY PARK, N. j.. Sept. 8.-The

midnight fires. For the sixth time
within few days fire was discovered
in Asbury Park, which resulted in the
total destruction of houses. barns.
horses and personal property. Almost
at the hour of midnight an alarm was
sounded.
The fire was discovered in the big
barn Of G. Burdette POLAND. The big
barn was filled with infammable ma
terisl, and it was not long before the
tiomes made big hsadway and totally
destroyed it with its contents, The
flames spread to an adjoining barn,
which was also totally destroyed. The
sparks ignited still another barn, and
within half an hour the three barns,
with their contents, dozen or more
valuable horses, wagons, hacks. and
some fine turnouts, were totally de-.
stroyed.
The fire extended to the home of Pol

Evidently the fiend who set the fire
intended to burn down both Asbury
Park and Ocean Grove. 1t is said on
good authority that the Coleman

parts with kerosene and ready to be ig-

Ocean Grove was found in the same
condition. Under the Lake View
House there is reported to have
been found bundle Of straw
saturated with kerosene. The Town
fire and water commissioners, along
with Chief of Police Smith and his
force, are investigating the report of
these findings. Certainly the fire bugs
had every intention of burning down
the town, as they, it is said, started the
fire on the outskirts Of the town this
morning, thinking the department
would respond. The chief withheld
the department of this place on the
lookout for other fires.

considerably, but extinguished only
the smaller ones. A party of campers,

confined to crops and lumber.

Of allowing certain lodges to use a

before the Pythias supreme lodge this
morning. Both the majority and
minority reports were both read and a
lively discussion followed.
The majority report was finally
adopted, years 70, nays SO. And thus
the German question was settled ad-
versely to the use of the German lang
uage.
The special order for tomorrow at
10 o'clock will be the report of the
council of administration recommend
ing the non-reeognition Of the Pythian
sisters. A time has not been fixed for
the final disposition of the temperance
question although it is expected that
the action taken will only bo a ratifica-
