export or cash demand, and as there was
no foreign speculation, holders showed
increasing discouragement and there
were numerous Iiquidations, with the buv-
ing slow and cautious. December sold
early at 59Ac, went off gradually to 5000
$3.50, and closed at 5000.

FIRE IN THE HISTORY OF
AUGUSTA.
BLAZING EMBERs BLOWN MANY
BLOCKS BY THE RAGING
GALE.

AUGUSTA, GA, Oct. 25.-One of the
largest fires in the history of Augusta, in
respect to injury, visited this city this
evening. 1t started in the stables of the
lumber and planning mills of Jesse Thomp.
son e. Co. and consumed the plant in a
few minutes.
1t was situated on the outskirts of the
city, and one side was stretch of small
frame houses. A very high wind wa:
blowing in the direction of these houses
and great burning embers were carried
high in the air. setting fire to houses two
and three blocks away, while those much
nearer temporarily escaped destruction.
They were doomed. however, for the
wind was SO fierce and the lumber was Sc
infiammable that it was at no time under
control of the Fire Department, and the
lire was not extinguished until it had spent
itself.
The embers of forty-four houses are all
that remain in the burned district, which
stretches along several squares. Several
hundred people are homeless. The total
value OF the property destroyed is $4,000,
on which the insurance is only about
$25, 900 or 10000.

It's influence. He asks for the convention
TO come to California as recognition of
the loyal support of the Republicans of
that section. He laughs at the idea OF
San francisco being too far away, and in
his aggressive and determined manner
mas done much to weaken the argument
OF the opposition. | assure you the fight
VIII be kept up most vigorously until vic
tory Is ours. All the allegations about our
not having hotel facilities and that the
telegraph people could not serve the re-
ports have been dissipated.
1t Is now generally recognized that San
francisco is very proper place to hold
the convention, and no other argument
than the distance is given by those who
pretend to know anything of the situa-
ton. My advices from San Francisco are
that our whole State, and in fact all the
States west of the Rocky Mountains,
are interested in this contest, and that
great disappointment will be felt there
unless the victory is finally won.
Yes, We go directly through. We shall
stop at Chicago a few hours and then take
up our journey again. | am pleased, l

SENATOR HILL LECTURED
OLD LANDMARKS" HIS SUBJECT
BEFORE THE MICHIGAN
UNIVERSITY.
FOUR CHANGES IN THE CONsTITU.
TON RECOMMENDED BY THE
STATESMAN.

ANN ARBOR, MICH, Oct. Ex-senator
David B. Hill lectured before a large
audience in University Hall tonight, his
subject being "Old Landmarks" He
dwelt in length upon the Declaration of
Independence, the Revolutionary War
and the constitution as landmarks of
American history. Jefferson was extolled
as a great constructive statesman, who
would be remembered by millions when
Hamilton would be remembered by but a
few. An epitome of the landmark. of the
revolutionary struggle was given. The
constitution was described as the greatest
document ever given to the world by states
men.
But few changes in it could be suggested
to-day. -Four changes were advocated by
Senator Hill. First, that the Presidential
term be increased to six years, and the
President be ineligible for reelection. Sec
ond, that United States Senators be elected
by the people. Third, that the President
be allowed to veto individual items in
appropriation bills. Fourth, that paper
currency should not be issued.
The Senator explained that by this he
meant mere promises of the Government
to pay money should not circulate as legal
tender.
A history of the legislative action and
judicial decisions in this matter was given
to bring out the point that the old land
marks of hard money should be again
recognized as the foundation of our finan-
cial system. The present system of bond
Issues is the evil result of the system of
legal tender currency or greenbacks.
Senator Hill received great ovation.
He paid glowing tribute to the Univer-
sity Of Michigan and made good i'm
preston upon the audience. He leaves
here tonight for Lima, Ohio, where he
will make four speeches

ALLENTOWN, Pa. Oct. 25.-Fright-

Hannah Knappenberger, a widow, IS years
old, of this city, expired at her home
on Wednesday evening. The hayward
young man, who is "a years old, had caused

and Wednesday his conduct brought on
the fatal crisis. Edward did not come
home to dinner as usual, but turned up in
toxicated about P. NJ. His mother up
braided him, whereupon he drew vial of
poison from his pocket and drank it. A
doctor was hastily summoned and, while
he was trying to get the poison out of the
young mans stomach, the frightened
mother ran out of the house and fell in a
faint in the yard. She was carried inside
in an unconscious condition and died sew
eral hours later. Young Knappenberger
will recover.

FROM THE INTERIOR PRESS.
State in Regard to the Republican
4onVSnfion

With that activity which typifes the in
terror journals they have begun to take up
the matter.of the National Convention and
with their assistance San Francisco will
find that she has strong ally, and one
that will stay with her until the fight is
over.
The following extracts are among the
first to appear:
All signs point to the fact that the Republi-
can National Convention will be held in San
francisco next June, and 1t now behooves our
people to put their shoulders to the wheel and
make the fact doubly sure The National Com
mlttee has debt of something like 500, 900
which they must pay. Pittsburg, which is the
only dangerous competitor that San Fran
cisco has, will agree to wipe out that debt.
San Francisco will have to do the same
thing, and a fund has now been started for
that purpose by the Examiner which amounts
TO over $4,000 THE CALL has started fund,
heading the list with $4,000. 1t is highly prob
able that the Chronicle will follow suit, head
ing the list with large amount. With these
three great dailies working for the financial
part OF the matter there will be no chance of a
failure.
The holding of this convention in San Fran
CISCO would be a great thing for that City and
LOT the whole State, as it would bring to our
shores one of the largest gatherings of wealthy
| men that has ever been within the confines of
the state. These men would then see what a
grand state this Is and many of them would
make investments heYe and possibly come
mere TO live. Again, it would open their eyes
to the fact that away OF here in the extreme
west, there is an empire of its own that cannot
De overlooked by the people of the East, and
also 1t would show that the wants of the West
must be provided for by Congress.-Berkeley

@Il,ooo, or one-ninth of the required sum, to
the convention fund. With this sort of start
rom such source, it may be supposed that
the "ltlzens OF San Francisco will have no
olmeulty IN offering necessary financial
Inducements to the National Committee
men. Let the wealthy men of the City
do about one-fourth as well proportionatelv az
the morning papers have done, and the money

indicates that the friends of Mckinley, Allison

san francisco to the Republican National Con-
Ventlon. The proprietor OF that journal de-
clares through the columns of the New York
Mercury that majority of the National Com
mlttee have expressed preference for San
francisco as the convention city. 1t is well,
perhaps, not to be go sangulne of the result as
to quit work. The Convention Will not come
TO the City unless the demand for it takes
financial shape. The COMMITTEES is in debt and
1t expects the city to which it directs the next
National convention to pay its debt The en-

Ames' simplicity of life and his we'll
known tastes. The services were very
simple. There was no eulogy, and after
the benediction had been pronounced the
cortege proceeded to the cemetery, where
simple prayer was said and the inter
mcnt quietly made.

RALEIGH, N. c., Oct. 25. = Senator
Marion Butler in an interview here yester-
day said regarding the organization OF the
Senate that he favored the coming to-
gether of silver men Of all parties and
organizing the Senate on silver lines. He
said majority of the Senators were
elected as silver men, and that the adj
herehts to a gold standard can only con-
troll the Senate by the aid OF men who pro-
fess to favor silver,
Senator Butler says it is of the utmost
importance for silver men TO organize the
Senate and thus control committees, for,
unless this is done, no silver bill will be
reported The Senator is impelled to take
this view of organization, as he considers
that Senator Sherman has made a declara-
ton in favor of the organization of the
Senate by the advocates of a single gold
standard.
