WORK OF AN lNCENDIARY.
Fire Hug That burned A1gfers Spir
tied Awax tn New Orleans

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 2l.-The fire in Al
giers yesterday destroyed 1S5 houses and
shanties occupied by about one thousand
people. Most of the occupants saved a por-
ton of their personal effects and furniture
The buildings on the ten squares burned and
the real estate on which they stood were as
sessed at $1s5, ,1Go. The prevailing opinion in
Algiers is that the fire was the work of an
incendiary and the man who is suspected of
being the cause of all the destitution which
now prevails In that once thriving little
town had narrow escape from being
lynched He was spirited away from the
temporary police station and brought TO the
city by Captain Day. who locked him UP in
the harbor precinct station. and then he
was taken to the central station, where he

arson pending against him. The fire started
in the structure known all over Algiers as
the ''Oli Rookery,' rattletrap of a build

me-ace TO the other structures around. II

Italian, who huddled together in the true
tenement style. Paul Bouffia was of
these, and he occupied the lower part of the
building next 10 the corner. He kept fruit
stand and had wife and about six chill
dren TO support. He was man who was
heartily disliked by the other Italians IN
the neighborhood, and all over the city in
fact. and enjoyed very bad reputation.

LARGE SALES OF COTTON.
Panic ON the New York Exchange and
Big Drop I'm Prices.

NEW YORK. Oct 2l.--The sales OF cotton
to-day reached the unheard total of SO 7co
bales. The largest sales ever before rec
orded were made last week when. on
Wednesday. the total reached $50 200 bales.
This is another way of saying that the
cotton market at this point has been In a
condition Of unparalleled excitement and
confusion. The pendulations in prices have
been most violent result of con-
fiict between certain operators to arrest
the decline on the one hand and the tre-
mendous- outside pressure of the large
class of widely scattered holders known as
the outside public" The latter have been
panic stricken and orders TO sell without
limit fell on a market which seemed TO
have no bottom. At the outset there was
decline OF 2s632 points: by noon the
decline was Increased TO Sass points. and
at the weakest intervals the decline was
a566o points; the close was easy at a net
decline OF 53u5S points. At the close the
market was nervous and unsettled with a
panicky feeling prevailing and much de-
pending on the Liverpool opening prices

the fourth round. although the fight was
to have been twenty rounds. The Chicago
lad. holder of the bantam weight cham

weakly the last time, and again Barry
shot his right to Madden's Jaw, lifting the
Brooklynite fairly off his feet and MAX

confident, and began rushing. Madden
clinched, but was Strengthened up with

ful right Madden wrestled, and in a
breakaway landed one good punch in the
