THE UNIVERSITY FIRE,

The dismsntled building at the Uni
versity of Virginia, which was burned
on Sunday, presented gloomy aspect
yesterday. The blackened walls of the
rotunda are intact, except for crack
in the top of the west wall, caused by
explosions of dynamite. The walls OF
the annex are not secure. a part of
the north wall and nearly all of the
south wall fell yesterday. A building
committee, consisting of Prof. w. a.
Echols, Noah K. Davis, J. w. Mallett,
F. II. Smith and W. D. Dabney, has
been appointed by the faculty, and has
determined to employ an architect at
once and have the walls of the rotunda
examined to see if it is necessary to re-
move them. The rebuilding of this
part of the destroyed building will be
begun at once. 1t is thought that the
annex, where the Ere originated, will
not be rebuilt. A prominent member
of the faculty characterized it as 8
"monstrosity." Late yesterday after
noon Prof. Thornton put the loss at
$4,000. Many friends of the famous
institution are hoping and expecting
endowments from wealthy alumni.
The debris is being rapidly cleared
away. The handsome marble capitals
which were shattered by the heat, were
stored away as relics.
Lectures were resumed yesterday,
with almost the usual attendance. The
Jefferson and Washington Halls, the
Temperance Hall, Museum and pro-
fessors' Offices are being used for the
purpose.
The rector, DR.. W. C. n. Randolph,
and the chairman of the faculty, Pro-
fessor Thornton, are in receipt of tele-
grams from all parts of the country ex-
pressing regret and rendering financial
aid. Thousands visited the scene yes
terdsy, where the work OF removing the
debris went briskly on.
The executive committee of the So
ciety of Alumni of the University, in
Washington, met last evening at the
Office of c. G. Lee, and after wiring re-
grets to the faculty and students of the
university, determined to issue call
for public meeting of the Washington
alumni and other friends of the mstitu-
ton, which will be hello at Willard Hall
on Saturday evening.
A mass meeting of the citizens of
Richmond was held at the Chamber of
Commerce at 1 o'clock to-day TO con-
slider what can BE- done to repair the
great loss occasioned by the FIRE at the
university
The valuable Austin collection, Lee
papers. and MANY other rare and
valuable looks that can never be re-
placed, were destroyed by the fire on
Sunday.

| JUDGE SCHENCK SERVES SAUCE.
, There was sauce for the dry bones
! of facts and law.
Besides Judge Schencil's strong
words at the beginning of the argu-
ment, he and Col Price had little
spat.
The gentleman from Salisbury had
| insinuated. indeed. alleged that no
| body in the State opposed the lease eX-
cept the Popuilsts, and they opposed
everything"
Judge Schenck: THE opposition of
the gentleman to the 'opulists depends
very much upon whether he needs
votes. In the late election. when flu
sion was abroad. he was understood
to be very fond Of the Populists. 1t
looks hard that he should denounce
them now"
Cot. Price had referred to DreXel
Morgan 9. Co.'S great service to the
country in ayerting a panic by floating
the United States bonds.
Judge Schenc} secuted the idea of
patriotism among he milliOnaires,a and
cited as an evidence OF that lofty pa
triotism,'' the New York Chamber of
Commences denunciation of Cicve-
lands great Venezuelan message. Mr..
Stetson. the general counsel for the
'Southern" had done the government
the great service" OF buying it's bonds
at 104 and selling them at 100.
Answering col Prices statement
that the \. G.. stock had already gone
to 1877, Judge Schenck said that. while
that was true. the stockholders were
getting only the same seven per CENT.
no matter how much more valuable
the road might become. In % years
might be ten times as valuable as when
the lease was made. But the stock
holders would get only seven per cent.
\ PASTEL THAT WAS DAUBED
Judge BurWell had remarked how
pleasant ii was to him to see the long
trains OF the Southern railroad. freitgh-
ed with the passengers and commerce

Judge Schencl, tool up this pretty
little pastel in words. and daubed it
with the brush Of fidicuie. He said
he felt Inundated that the name
North Carolina should be erased from
the cars, and a Virginia name supply
its place. Why not put the Virginia
