A Mill of the National linseed Oil Company
 Burns al Chicago

Chicago, July 21.-Mill No. of the Ma tional Lineseed Oil company, at the crossing of Canal street and the Burling- ton railway tracks, was totally destroyed by fire early this morning, entailing loss of nearly $S00000 The fire was fierce one, and before the flremen could reach the scene on the first alarm it was beyond their control. The building was saturated with oil, the buildings being stored with thousands of barrels of oil in each, and it needed but the touch of a match to start the large bonfire ablaze. The moment the fire had fairly broken out the flames leaped in great jumps from one spot to another, and fl was only due to the isolated position of the mill and the hard work of the fire depart ment that the blaze was confined to the buildings in which it started.
 As it was, lumber yard and small factory near by were ofttimes in great danger. The origin of the fire is un- known

FARMER CROSS FLEECED.
A Confidence Man Ho5doos lin Out of Con- siderable Sum of Money and Then
 Shakes Him.

Anniston, July 20-(Special Cor respundence) "A swindler, giving his name as Jacantus Lawrence Fulton, and claiming connection with the United States geological survey and membership in several weil-known societies and acad- emies of mining engineers, who has been travelling over Calhoun county for sew eral weeks, ostensIDly investigating her mineral resources, finally succeeded in relieving Mir. William C. Cross wealthy farmer of the Middleton community, or S29O of his hard-earned money. Fulton made his headquarters for some time at the home of MT. Cross, and finally re- ported that he had found valuable miner als on tract of land belonging to MT. Cross. He told MT. Cross that he thought he could dispose of 1t for him for a good sum, to which MT Cross read fly agreed, and Fulton borrowed $130 from him to meet the necessary expenses incurred in working up the sale. It was not long before Fulton reported that he had made a sale, and delivered to MT. Cross a check for $12,000, which, however, was not to be used Tor a couple of weeks. few days afterward Fulton informed Cross that he had about completed ar engagements for the sale to syndicate of another tract of land belonging to Cross but that it was necessary for them to go to Gadsden to meet the representa- tive of the syndicate, who was then in Guntersville. When they reached Gads- den, however the man hadn't come, so Cross was sent to Guntersville after him, and Fulton came back to Cross home after deed which had been left in safe there, but instead of getting the deed alone from the safe, he took therefrom the S12,000 check and $160 in cash. Full ton then returned to Gadsden and met Cross, who had of course failed to find the man in Guntersville. The two then visited several cities, among them Chat tanooga, where Fulton stopped over for a few days, as he said. Cross came on home, and for the first time discovered that he had been robbed. Fulton tried to work several other people in the coun- ty, but failed.
 Mrs. Charles Woford, wife of the pas tor of St. Paul's. Methodist Episcopal church. died yesterday morning, after a long and painful illness, and was buried this morning.
