done a damage of s., go 600. The COM

seen the flames quickly ran through the
building which extends from the corner

the $50 foot block until it makes the SOUTH

From this building the flames got into the
structure adjoining on the south, while to
the north they shot across the narrow
Blocker street, caught the enormous
building of the Manhattan Savings insti-
tuition, the upper stories of which soon
crushed and fell with great crash while
firemcn were working on the lower floors.

the enormous heat the firemen crowded

nearby structures. An especial effort
was made on the Bleecker street side to
see that the flames did not cross the street
to the eight-stOry Manhattan bank struc-

o'clock where all had been light for blocks
around from the glare of the flames, there
came darkness.
Smoke, Crash and Explosion.
From the rent walls there came a great
black cloud of smoke that blotted out all

the Democratic leaders may, it is never
theless fact, which they can easily
learn to be fact, that a very large pro-
portion OF the Democrats OF this State

crack the party whip and these dlssatis-

SENATOR SHERMAN has atirred up the
Republican politicians OF the country
by the criticisms in his book, but the
WAS that he wanted to hold all his
friends down to the strict letter OF a
contract in which he was the chief
beneficiary while making no concessions
to them. Such sellshuess is certain to
meet with appointment, no. only in
political affairs but In any of the con-
Germs of life. Honest John was too con,
ceited to suspect danger until il had
done it's work.
