Those Turkish Outrages,

WASHINGTON, August 2f.-The
state department is in receipt Of
Information from our minister at
Constantinople concerning the re-
cent attack on the premises Of
Christi, at Tarsus, the brief in re-
gard to which had previously been

Beyreuth puts a different aspect
on the affair, which is more serious
than at first believed to be, Christi's
students and servants having been
seuerely beaten and his own life
threatened. TerrelPs prompt &C
ton, in obtaining from the Porte
instructions to the Vail of Beyreuth
to investigate and prosecute those
found guilty, will secure, it is ex.
pected, immediate and full justice,
as promised by the Mavironi. The
com says our consul at
Beyreuth is also ordered by the
minister to proceed to Tarsus and
investigate the matter himself.

INCENDIARY FIRE.
A Large Carriage Repository Burned
Early This Morning.

early Ibis morning.
Alling & Cumins, an old firm OF
this city, who have occupied their
fine new building, on East Com
merce street, but few months,
were rendered proprietors Of only
an insurance claim and large as
sortment of burned, warped and
damaged vehicle fittings by some
incendiary about to l:30 o'clock
this morning, who started brisk
fire In the wagon shed in the rear
of the building, which gained such
Roadway before being discovered
that the firemen found it impossi-
BILE to save the building.
The place was occupied as car.
riage and wagon repository, and
was filled with a large stock
of vehicles. No occasion for
lights or any sort Of fire was
necessary in the business and the
members of the firm say that no
fire, not even a burning match, was
allowed in the building. They are
pronounced in the belief that it was
Iut WOEh vi uuhuOWh hIOOuS
The firemen soon had three
streams of water playing on the
flames and protecting adjoining
residences on Blum street to the
north of the fire. The residences
OF Mrs. Stappenbeck and Mrs. Stor-
beck were very closely situated and
were somewhat scorched.
The building was Of metal and
brick and was built last fall, the
owner being Mr.. G. Stuart Simons
He valued the property at $1,000
and it is damaged to the sums OF
$4,000 to $4,000, but Is insured.
During the fire the hose of the
chemical engine bursted and rem
dered the engine useless. The fire.
men say the hose Of this engine is
rotten and has burst at every fire
except one, in the last two months
A double set Of hose is needed, in
order that the set not in use can Re
thoroughly cleansed of the acids
used in it and then dried. New
hose has been ordered.
The reserve held themselves in
readiness for general alarm, but
none was sent in.
The building is insured for So, o0O
with the Germania Insurance COM
pany and the London Assurance
company. The insurance on the
stock is $4,000, Of which amount
$1,000 is held by the Germania and
$1,000 with the Lion, Of London.
Mr.. E. B. Alling, senior member
of the firm, could not tell the
LIGHT reporter how much insur.
ance was carried by the firm, or In
what companies, or by what agents
in this city it is placed with. He
merely says: ave are we'll Gov
cred by insurance"
This firm is particularly unfortu
nate in their experience with the
fire fiend, as this is their third loss
in the last four or five years.

especially attractive and interesting, and
that she wants you all to come. Fur
