The temple had become the house of

two things about this fact in the illus

outlook for victory is decidedly favorable and democrats everywhere are very much encouraged. The Fifty fourth congress will be democratic by at least fifteen ma jority, with chances favorable to an in crease over that number, though fifteen is a very close and conservative estimate.
 When asked as to the feeling over the result in Alabama he said: "Alabama IS placed solidy in the democratic ranks and no one figures otherwise.
 "Now, general, how is the estimate on New York and Hills chance for victory?'

SEVEN VESSELS ON FIRE, Was the Record Reported Last
 Night From Savannah. A CASE OF HOW ABOUT IT One After Another the Blazes Were DiScovered-An Air of
 Mystery Unexplained.
A CASE OF HOW ABOUT IT

SAVANNAH, Ga. Nov. 5.-At 6:30 o'clock this evening fire was discovered in the hold of the cotton steamer Skidby at the Central com press wharf. The fire was in hold No. 8, in which there were about 2500 bales of cotton. The Skidby had about 10, 900 bales aboard. She had about concluded loading and would have cleared tomorrow. The fire had gained considerable headway when discovered ,and at this writing is still burn ing.
 At 8:15 o'clock it was discovered that there was fire in the cotton of the steamer Baltimore City, at the Gordon press, about a mile from the scene of the fire on the Skidby. Alongside of the Baltimore City lay the steamer Castlegarth, and a few minutes after the discovery that the for mer's cotton was afire a fire was also dis covered in the forepeak of the Castle- garth, in which compartment there were about 100 bales Of cotton and the seamen's clothes. The fire on the Baltimore City was but s,na1l and was soon put out. On the Castlegarth it was more obstinate and was not extinguished until the sailors' clothes had been burned and all the cotton in the compartment more or less damaged.
 About an hour after the discovery of fire on the Baltimore City an alarm of fire was given from the steamer Stag, also loading at Gordon's wharf, along with the Balti- more City and the Castlegarth. This fire proved to be the most obstinate of the three at the Gordon wharf. and it is still burning as this is being written. The Stag had on a large proportion of her cargo. Almost AGO bales have been taken from her holds and the holds of the Baltimore City and Castlegarth and put on lighters. ; About the time of the fire at Gordon's wharf if re broke out in the hold of the Dell garth at the steamer's wharf, near the Skidby, where the first fire occurred in a few minutes the steamer Petupia( at the Central compress wharf, was( afire in her cotton.
 The three ships afire at~
 not over 800 yards apar
 ships afire were auf1
 Ere was exGing sashed when about 300 bales had been damaged.
 All of the fires are out now except those on the Stag and the Skidby. The loss as far as can be estimated at this time is about S50, ,OOO. The ships and the cargoes are covered by insurance.
 As to the origin of the fires there is no satisfactory explanation. In the case of the Stag a phosphorescent glow was seen in her hold a few minutes before the fire broke out, and it is surmised that the Stag's fire originated in this glow. There has recently been trouble among the longshoremen in this city, but there is none now. Last spring the union long, shoremen went out on strike, but recently a great many of the strikers have returned to work at the rates at which the non- union men were working.
 12:05 a. m.-Fire has just broken out in the steamship Armenia, at the Central railroad wharf, making seven vessels now on the list.
