Great Loss By Fire.

CHARLoTTEsvTLLE, Va. Oct. 27.-The
University of Virginia suffered . great
loss by . fire that occurred this morning.
The local IRE department was unable to
cope with the flames, and assistance was
obtained from Staunton and Lynchburg,
which, however, arrived too Late to
save the public hall and the rotunda.
The fire started in the former building,
and large quantity Of dynamite used
on the p0rtico between the public hall.
but, beyond displacing the large pillars.
nothing was accomplished.
Attention was then given to the build
ing known a. "Old Chapel" and
Reading Room" These were watched
and the hre was confined to the hall and
rotunda. The library, containing about
e15, 900 worth Of books, statues, paint
ings, etc., was In tho rotunda. An
effort to save these resulted in the res
cue Of Jefferson . statue and three.
fourths Of the books. Everything else
was burned. At 9 o. clock the fire was
under control. The lecture room WA
destroyed and everything In the room.
including . geological library Of great
value, . painting entitled "T'he School
at Athens, copy Of the celebrated
production by Raphael. was consumed.
The total loss Is estimated at mot Len
than $500, 600, with an insurance Of
e25, 900 ON the buildings and contents.
The origin Of the fire IL not known.
The faculty has determined to 90 on
with the lectures tomorrow a. usual,
and will use other buildings belonging
to the university. Debris from the fire
was carried six or seven miles into the
surrounding country.

The Zig Fight Oh.

From the Little Rock Gazette Of Thursday.
Little Rock presented > decidedly
martial appearance yesterday. The
local military companies were out and
in readiness to obey expected orders to
move to Hot Spring. During the morn
ing Brigadier General Geo. P. Taylor,
commanding the Arkansas State Guard,
issued an order directing Col. F. B. T.
Hollenberg, Of the First Regiment. to
assemble battalion consisting Of the
following companies: C, D, G., X and
I, and to hold them In readiness for field
service on and after l 80 p. n. yesterday.
At s o clock in the afternoon Gov.
Clarke received telegram from Deputy
Sheriff Jesse Heard stating that Sheriff
billiard had arrested both Fitxsimmons
and Julian at Fulton. The message
said further that 1t was uncertain
whether the two prisoners would be
brought to Little Rock by way Of the
Iron Mountain or taken around on the
Cotton Belt via Pine Bluff. A report
WAS received later that there was some
doubt as to whether 1t was really Fitz
who was arrested or some one else.
This report was disproved by Col.
M. L. Davis. the governors private
secretary, who was on the train between
Texarkana and Fulton when the arrests
were made and who says there is no
doubt it is Fitx who is under arrest.
The party left the train at Fulton and
returned to Texarkana and will proba-
bly, reach Little Rock to- day by way Of
the Cotton Belt road and Pine Bluff.

An earthquake Of unusual violence
occurred At Charleston, Mo-. Thursday
tnorning about o'clock. After the
lirst shock the earth o surface continued
70 vfbrate fully twenty minutes.
Hundreds of chimneys tuinbled down.
and the plate glass In several store
fronts were broken to bits. The Metho-
dist church was badly shifted and
plaster knocked down from hundreds or
more Of interiors. In the country, four
miles south, the crust Of the earth was
broken in fifty places and from the
lirsures water and sand are gushing in
considerable volumes. The same phe-

The Election Of Senators.

Western Democrats who have been
insisting that United States Senators be
elected by a direct vote Of the people
will be gratified to learn that Senator
Hill has announced himself ~ q
champion of this idea. If there Is a
man In Official life quick to catch the
drift Of public sentiment 1t is Hill.
Recent converts to the idea are both
numerous and able. The East has been
q trifle slow In taking up the agitation
but the declaration Of Senator Hill in
his speech before the students Of
Michigan University that this reform
was one Of those most badly needed In
our public policy IL sufficient evidence
that the movement Is not lacking In
advocates in that section.
It Is practically assured that this ques.
tion Is one which both Democrats and
Republicans will be called upon to
discuss In the approaching national con.
venti0ns. It will be forced to the front
no less by the scandels which have
attended the election Of Senators than
by the demand for new blood in that
body and q desire on the part Of the
people to meet the men who represent
them. ST. Louis Republic.
We fully agree with Senator Hill and
the Republic ON this PROPOSITION and the
next best thing to do is to make the
nomination for U. 8. Senator direct by
the people. at the primaries, the same
a. governor and other officers are made.
And In this connection we would cal
the attention Of the State Executive
Committee, when they meet to make .
call for the State Convention, that they,
ct the same time, make call for the
expression Of . preference for U. 8.
Senator, to be voted for At the same
time other officers are put in nomin
alton. This would give more fully the
general wishes of the masses Of the
Democracy Of the State.

Murder Plot Foilea.

PHOENIX, Arix., Oct. 26.-J. p.
Hoxie confessed to Sheriff Orme that he
had been approached by. one P. f.
Yenna, who offered him 800 cash down
to assist In killing family Of three in
Mesa. Hoxie had assented and accepted
the money. The proposed victims were
DR.. A. Williams, his wife and daughter.
Yenna represented that he was married
to Williams daughter. but they were
separated. Williams possessed valuable
property in Kansas and the removal OF
the three would leave Yenna the sole
heir.
The sheriff and . deputy warned the
Williams family and placing dummies
In bed the officers secreted themselves.
About midnight Yenna and Hoxie
appeared and forced an entrance. The
officers called upon them to surrender,
and upon Yenna showing fight he was
shot down and instantly Killed.
It was then discovered that the dead
man was none other than DR.. John
Rose, at one time prominent Arkansas
physician. He undoubtedly contem-
plated the cold blooded murder Of his
wife, father. in law and mother In Jaw
An accomplice named Cooley was also
captured. The three would be muir

SPRIN0FIELB, Mo-. Oct. 39.-A new
system Of discipline is to be inaugurated
on the Frisco which will do away with
the old way Of laying men of for errors,
and It Is hoped will increase the efficiency
In all departments.
A record Is to be kept Of the work Of
all the employees. They will be charged
with any mistakes they shall make and
credited for meritorious acts. In max
ing promotions the time that men have
been with the company and their records
will be considered. II . man Is repeat

after he has been given fair trial. The
officers at headquarters viii use their
Judgment as to when an employ should
Be dismissed, and It will require NO
definite number Of reports to cause q
dismissal. One serious report may
cause . man to be discharged. while
dozens of smaller ones will only be
charged against his character.
Reports Of wrecks, accidents, etc. ,
will be bulletined ut tho prominent
points along the road and the men con-
cerned will be given chance to explain

The Forty.eight Master Propositions
Of Col. ". L. Terry.

The "46 Propositions of Col. W.
L. Terry, n. c., originally printed in
the Little Rock Tribune, are proving
the most memorable utterances Of this
momentous campaign. They are as
familiar in the North, East and West
~ they are In Arkansas and the South.
As an illustration Of the fact that they
are still moving, The Tribune quotes
the following from the Bonneville lMo. J
Advertiser Of Oct. f6:
The Advertiser has received . copy Of the
Little Rock Tribune. containing 1 recent
mastery speech on the currency question By
Hon VI L. Terry. congressman from the Little
Rock district. In the same issue appears a letter
from frcm NJ Terry advancing 4s propositions, in
which II seems that every conceivable objection
to the free, unlimited and independent coinage
o. both gold and silver Is met and answered.
We will be glad 70 use some Of these proposl-
tons from time to time. II Arkansas has but :
few more statesmen and fnanciers Of Mr. Terry 8
stamp and ability, II Ia . waste Of money time
and labor for the Eastern sound money! clubs
10 send their literature into that state.
