THE LOSS A MILLION
Fire at Milwaukee Destroys a
Number OF, Big Busi-
ness Houses.
Y. NJ. c. A. BUILDING GONE.
Public Library Badly Dam
aged but the Contents
Are Saved.

MILWAUKEE, March ~. Lower
Grand avenue, where the heart Of the
wholesale and retail Of the
West Side throbs, was the scene early
this morning Of one of the most serious
CONGREGATIONS in the history of the city.
Some Of the leading mercantile institu-
tiOns of Milwaukee are in ruins; the
splendid Y. M. G. A. building, one of
the finest and best equipped in the
country, is gone; the public library,
with its 8 $1,000 volumes, some of which
could never be replaced, has had a mar
row escape, the two top floors being
badly burned and much damage was
done by water.
The fire is the most disastrous since
the Third ward conf1agration of Oct, %,
1892, and the pecuniary loss will ex-
coed 81, 1000, 900.
List of Losses.
Following are the latest estimates of
losses:
Plankinton estates, on buildings,
1886. COO; Landauer & Co., wholesale
dry goods, $500, 900; Benedict & Co.,
clothing, $40, 900; Y. M. C. A. building,
$25, 900; Roebel & Reinhardt, art store.
100000; F. Hopkinson Smith, paintings,
$l5,O0O;Au Bon Marche. $40, 900; Co.
lumbia Clothing company, S., 900; Tan
ner & Co., furniture, 500, 900; Darling
& Wambold company, clothing, $50, 900;
Schlitz Brewing company, building,
$4,000; William Hallmann, building,
$1,000; occupants Of Mailman &
Schlitz buildings, Mathews Bros,
building, $4,000; James Morgan & Co.,
dry goods, $4,000; other losses about
5000. Total about $3.50, 900. The in
surance will aggregate 80 per cent of the
loss. The Milwaukee public library had a
narrow escape, but was saved by a ia
vorable shift of wind. No casualties
occurred during the progress of the fire.
The burned district takes in both sides
of Grand avenue from Third to Fourth
streets, with the exception of the
Matthews block on the south side and
the buildings east of the alley on the
north side. West of Fourth street the
corner store of the public library build
ing is gone on the north and the Foster
block and Y. M. G. A. building on the
south. F. Hopkinson Smiths pictures
represent over a years hard work in
Europe. 1t is not known whether he
carried any insurance.

Probable Composition of the Five CizIlized
Tribes Commission.
WASHINGTON, March 2S.-The organ
ization of the commission appointed to
negotiate with the five civilized tribes
will be completed within a short period.
The number of members was increased
to five at the last session of congress-,
but the two additional commissioners
have notyet buen named by the presi-

commission Is finally organized will be
as follows. Ex-senator Henry L.

Archibald S. McKennon, Arkansas,
disbursing agent; Major. Meredith H.
Kidd, Indiana; Conceal Frank G. Arm

ex-Representative A. B. Montgomery
Of Kentucky or ex-Senatos Matthew G.
Bntler, South Carolina. General Arm
strong was President Cleveland's first
appointee as commissioner of Indian
affairs, but resigned recently to accept
a private office. He has since remained
in Washington, and it is current
gossip among officials that he
will fill n of the vacancies.
There are a number of applica-
cants for the offices and both ex-Repre-
sentative Montgomery, of Kentucky,
and ex-senator Butler, of South Caro-
lima, are in the field. The first three

with considerable opposition among
many Of the Indians. The offices pay

mission will not be resumed until the
full organization is effected.

Official Circles at Ottawa Surprised at
ManitOba's Declaration,

Official Circles at Ottawa Surprised at
ManitOba's Declaration.
OTTAWA, March 2S.-The news from
Winnipeg that Premier Greenway has
declared that ''the governor generals
order will be rejected i'll it's entirety
(meaning the order to grant remedial
legislation to the Catholics in the mat
ter Of separate schools), while not unex-
pected, has created great excitement in
official circles. It is admitted that the
situation is pregnent with critical pos
sibilties and that much depends upon
the action of the Dominion government.
1t is, of course, possible that the Mani
toba legislature may shelve the question
for a year, as the federal parliament
Has No Jurisdiction
till the government of the province acts
Or refuses to act on the remedial order.
But this seems hardly likely to happen,
Judging from the reports of the feeling
among the majority of the people of
Manitoba. Assuming, then, that the
order in council of the Dominion gov
eminent is ignored, what will be the
steps taken by the government to en-
force it's demands? This question may
be determined by the outcome of two
by-elections, one in Quebec and the
other in Ontario, which are shortly to
be held.
May Cause Long Litigation.
The British North American act is in
many ways an elastic affair and it will
be a difficult matter for the Dominion
government to decide that it has or
that it has not the right to interfere in
the additional legislation Of the prov
inces. If it should decide to interfere,
it is possible that such interference
would make the political divisions of
Canada coincide with it's great religious
division, or would lead to a series of
appeals to the courts, the end Of which
can scarcely be ~foreseen. So far, the
action Of the government has resulted
in stirring up a feeling in Ontario
Very Hostile to Itself,
while in Quebec it has had a directly
contrary effect. None of the party or
gans in Ontario dare to commit them
selves to any definite statement as to
the course to be pursued towards Mani
toba. The Liberal papers, naturally,
their party being in opposition, are
delighted at the trouble and devote
many columns to telegraphic reports of
all news bearing OH the school ques-
ton, while the government organs, to
give one example, Monday gave only
the bare announcement in four u five
lines of the arrival Of the order-in-gen-
eral at Winnipeg.

MADRID, March 28.-Further resigna-

dent Of the Cuba tariff committee are
announced. The bill increasing the

fective from II, 900 to $4,000. The

that the condition Of the treasury is
very satisfactory. The government
