Saved.

flames were discovered issuing from
the roof Of Neuman & Buckman's
livery and sale stable ON the corner
OF SECOND street and First avenue
northeast. Mike Jansen, the barn
foreman, who sleeps there, was
awakened and while he and some
other men devoted their time to
turning the horses loose and getting
the carriages out another man
turned in the alarm. The depart
ment turned out promptly but by
that time the flames were bursting
through the roof in a number OF
places. There were about fOrty-five
tons of hay in the loft and it burned
rapidly. A stream was turned
on by the chemical and the
hose com panies turned ON four
streams. 1t was impossible to put
out the fire in the hay, but it was
kept down and finally most of the
hay was covered with coat OF ice
The fire burned through the hay in
places and set fire to the floor and
after few of the jOist had burned
through and wit" the weight If hay
it saon gave way and crashed down
onto the other one. The depart
ment kept pouring water on it, but
the fire continued to burn until .
O'Clock when it was Thought to be
well under control and the depart
ment went in. They were soon
called out again as the other floor
had given away and in falling to the
basement it had stirred the flames
up again.
The fire must have originated in
the second story at the rear end on
the barn. How it caught is a nys-
terry and will probably nlN avs re-
main So.
The stable is Il brick structure ex-
cepting the back end, which was
veneered with brick. There were
two stories and Il basement. On
the first floor was the office of Buck
man & Buchanan, Il sleeping room
for the men, and large space for
the sleighs and carriages. The
second story was filled with hay. In
the basement there was room for
about forty horses, besides Il large
harness room. The barn was built
about two years ago and valued at
$4,000. There were thirty-one horses
in tine stable and they were turned
loose. All the carriages, sleighs,
harnesses, etc., were saved. The
insurance was carried in companies

CHICAGO, June II BY decision rem
dered In the Illinois supreme court at
Springfield the charter of the Distilling
and Cattle Feeding company-known as
the whisky trusts annulled, and the le-
gal existence of the corporation is ended.
The decision sustains the Judgment OF the
circuit court of Cook county. and amounts
TO a substantial victory for Attorney Gen
eral Moloney, who instituted the proceed
ings two years ago last month. The opin-
ION was written by Justice Bailey. and
has the unanimous approval OF his asso-
ciates The decision contains sweeping
and emphatic condemnation OF trusts,
monopolies, and combines. In effect IL is

Two Factions Battling for Control.

drance to its plans, and the receiver is
rallying his forces and preparing to re-
sist any attempt that may be made by
original owners TO regain possession OF
the properties. A corporation having a

their hands ready and anxious to get a
chance at their old properties. The FORM
or owners of the distilleries are the people
who are expected To make trouble. For
weeks past they have been expecting the
decision. The supreme court having de.
clared the charter of the whisky trust
void, the original owners claim that the
distilleries revert to them, and to that
end are warning. Marshal Arnold had
a conference with Receiver Men ulta and
took precautions to meet any possible
move on the part of the distillers. Mar
