FIRE AT BANGOR.
The Most Disastrous Blaze in the
Queen City for Many Years.


bangor, may ~ lHc Io9s oiS07siou0
fire for long time broke out in the city,
this afternoon, just before O'Clock, and
before It was under control had swept
away many thousands Of dollars worth Of
property. The fire broke out in shed In
the rear OF house on Main street, oc-
cupied by Mr.. Curran.
The shed adjoined the large shed be-
longing to the Bangor Gas Company
where was stored 500 barrels Of tar, 500
tons OF coal and 5000 bushels Of coke
All was soon ablaze.
The double tenement house occupied by
Daniel Wescott and Patrick Donnelly,
next the Curran house, caught fire, as
also the house on the other side OF the Cur
ran house occupied by Frank Jellison.
The stable in the rear OF the Curran house
was burned but the house was saved,
The great shed Of the Gas Co, contain
ing cornbustible materials, blazed up very
fIercely, huge clouds Of dense black smoke
going and great waves Of fleece flames
bursting out, making grand sight
Thousands gathered at the scene and
there was CONSERVATION when the report
circulated that an explosion of gas in the
round house was liable at any moment.
Next to the gas works, separated only by
q narrow alley, are the large buildings OF
the Wood 81 Bishop Foundry Go. They
caught fra several times but lively work
subdued the flames.
Several houses In the neighborhood took
fire from Tire great clouds of cinders flying
In the air but no great damage was done
that way Some Of the household effects
OF the families burned out were saved but
much was lost
Three families were driven from home,
the Wescotts, Donnelleys and Currans
They had no insurance and will suffer
quite heavy losses The houses occupied
by Wescott Donnelly and Curran were
owned by the Gas Company.
The heat OF the fire was intense and
the flremen could not get near enough at
first to do their best work. The city was
covered with black smoke and the odor of
tar and gas was all over the city. Cinders
were carried many miles
As everything is very dry there was
great danger Of many houses taking fire.

The Future Of Home Rule.

In q letter to the New York Tribune
Justin Mccarthy takes a philosophical
yet withal hopeful view Of the future
Of home rule. Even though there
should not soon be Liberal restora-
tiOn. the leader of the NatiOnallsts is
not prepared to predict that the Tories
may not themselves accept the newt
able with reference to Ireland Just as,
under Disraelis president leadership,
they accepted It in the matter of Glad
stones Reform bill Of 1886. But while
It is within bounds Of possibility that
fairly satisfactory adjustment of
the home rule question may yet be
made during Conservative adminis-
tration, Mr.. Mccarthy is too expert
enced politician and too firm q be-
lever in the Justice Of his country's
demands to trust blindly to Tory in
itative. He aptly says:
Let the Tories remain Tories as long az
they Will; they cannot prevent the pOlit-
ical world from moving. And even Tories
feel the movement But of course the

The Convention that assemblies at the
state capital on Wednesday Is also for
Hastings: It remains to be seen II It can
be manipulated as was the convention
five years ago. The same methods as
we'll as new ones will be applied by
Senator Quay and his lieutenants, but
the same success may not follow. The
Republican masses are not with Sena-
tor Quay any more now than they We're
when he forced Delamater upon them
through a subservient convention; and
We don't believe he can second time
succeed in slapping them in the face.

unnamed Democrat offering him 500

No Inst Cuusc for Troublc.

Philadelphia Press: '"There ought to be
no trouble over the organization OF the
state convention. II both sides mean to
be fair and reasonable there will be none.
Trouble can only come from an attempt to
do wrong. Out of $50 delegates $50 are un-
contested. There are only 0 whose cleo
ton .s In dispute. OF this number are
for Hastings and 4 for Quay. They hold
the regular credentials and are entitled to
be enrolled. This must be done under the
rules. Why should there be any question
or dispute over II? Why should there not
be common consent that the 6 Hastings
delegates and the Quay delegates who
are duly accredited should be placed on
the roll. and that then the merits OF the
contests should be decided by the conven-
tlon itself? The friends of Governor
Hastings are entirely willing to leave
the contests and all other questions to
the convention thus constituted. They do
not want u single name put upon the roll
which Is not rlghtfully there by all party
rules and precedcnts. And they Will be
content to accept and abide the judgment
of such body. This is plainly fair on its
face. 1t Is right under the rules and II is
right in reason. II there IL an unwilling

DOWN BY THE RUNNING SEINE.

From the Times Herald.
Where dark priests walk In trailing gowns
And nuns In white chapeaux
That waVcr like an angels wings
And CLINT like Alpine SHOWS:
A woman as q poor lost lamb
Goes crying from the fold.
Walked in the shades Of Notre Dame
And shivered in the cold.
She rested on the river there,
The night was at It's noon,
Her white face In storm of hair.
Lit by the mellow moon.
Shone ghastly. In her great dark eyes
There was look of pain
As. sighing, she gazed wistfully
Down i'm the running Seine.
The Seine, where wounded woman comes
In that last wild despair
To lave her soul. The soul set free
Drifts only God knows where:
But drifting to an unknown land
Where Is not grief nor pain
Leaves only footprints on the sand
Down by the running Seine.
Such are the midnight tragedies
The pont-lamp's fl!ckering CLEAN
Shows where the hurrying ripples run.
And close beside this stream
The dark priests walk in trailing gowns
And nuns in white chapeaux
That waver Ike an angels wings,
And CLINT like Alpine SHOWS.
