about $50 feet long, which was filled with
lutte. cotton, hemp, and saltpetre, was
DESTROYED. The Cairnchill, which was
burning. was towed to the fats near Lib

sink her there to prevent her total de-
struction by fire. The loss on the ware
house and it's contents Is estimated at
from s120, 600 TO $3.50, 900. The lighters
Captain G.. Bierdock, Walter klotz, and
a barge, all loaded with cotton were com
pleteiy destroyed. Two men Jumped from

ment of Sixty Cents.

TERRE HAUTE, Ind, August 1.-The
coal operators have advices that nowhere
i'm the State after last night will bitumi-
nious miners be paid go cents. This is to

miners in the State, and where the men
are working on a special sliding scale.

close to 3 ID. m. when Judge Sweetland
concluded his labors.
One case that took a number OF hours
to try and also involved many disputed
matters was that Of FRANK w. Peter
against Cyrs B. Waters for the recovery
OF 800 for the manufacture OF certain
articles. The plaintiff also alleged that
the defendant had made false representa-
tions as to his financial standing. The
latter disputed the price charged for the
work done, and also the charges OF fraud,
claiming he had the money TO pay on the
goods as promised on July s, and that the
defendant did not call for 1t, but sent a
sheriff TO arrest him on the 9th OF the
same month.
J. w. Hogan appeared for the plaintiff
and A. G. Cushing for the defendant.
Another case of special interest was that
OF William Sprague Sd, against Joseph
r. Healey, which was heard before
Associate Judge Reuckert. The plaintih
sued to recover two months rent for
tenement let to the defendant. The latter
alleged that the roof of the house In
which the tenement was leaked, and as
result a costly parlor suite and an ex-
pensive carpet were badly damaged by
not wholly destroyed and the tenement
rendered unfit to live in.
A. McKenny, who represented the lat
ter, claimed that his client was entitled
TO recoup himself out of the rent which
amounted to go for the tenement not
being in good shape and also as far as ne
was able for the value OF his furniture. A.
s. johnson disputed the value OF the
property injured as well as the extent The
house was rendered unpleasant by the
leak and claimed that under the de-
tense set up the damage to the furniture
could not be recovered. Judgment was

AN OLD HOUSE.
IL Is I've Hundred and Twenty Years
nf


A house that has history was sold by
auction at noon today on Abbott street.
Years have gone by TO the number OF ~
since this house was the only one stand
ing on what then was the corporate limits
OF Providence, the other houses built by
the settlers having been burnt by hre
started by some maliciously-disposeo
Indians.
The house is supposed TO have been
built about 1860, and its first owner was
probably Roger Mowry, well known
resident OF the days before the North End
had grown to be so well settled place as
IL is at present. The old house was the
first inn OF the town, II being created
such by act of the General Assembly,
which body seemed even in those strange
days TO have been interested in the moral
and bodily welfare Of it's constituency.
The house, though in good preserva-
tion. today, was not exactly fitted up so
as TO suit the ordinary nd-of-the-century
housekeeper. The structure, IL may be
noted, has some of the characteristics OF
the famous one-horse shay, for while
there is little possibility of its falling, the
marks CT age seem TO have spread equally
over all its parts.
For nearly half a century the house that
was today sold has belonged TO the Ma
comb family. Handsome elms surround
the structure and the virtues OF the place
were dwelt upon by the auctioneer. The
property, up to today's sale, stood In the
name OF Mrs. Ann Macomb. The owners
, OF the premises since Mowry's time, II is
pretty evident, have taken much care TO
preserve the property and it presented to-
day an appearance, that, 1t is safe to say,
few of ITS more modern neighbors VIII
when they are half as old.
1t was something after ~ o'clock when
Bernard MGuinness, the auctioneer, an
nounced that the time for the sale OF the
property had arrived.
The terms OF sale were read and the an
nouncement made that about $1,000 of the
purchase money might remain mortgage
| The first bid was for $1,000, and then bids
came by the 800 up TO $1,000. There wa
steady rise in offers until 1850 was
reached at which sum the property was
knocked down TO Andrew Anderson
! who resides on Powder Mill street.

THE WOOL TRADE.

The American Wool and Cotton Re-
porter will say tomorrow OF the wool
trade:
During the past week the wool markets
OF New York. Boston, Philadelphia ana
elsew here have witnessed period oil mac
tivity beyond that noted for some time.
Although there have been numerous
buyers In the market, the aggregate and
individual transactions have been OF
limited proportions. The reasons may
be attributed 10 the fact that many manu-
fscturers are now sufficiently wel sup
piled TO enable them TO operate their
machinery for some little time. Values
remain firm, and those who were In need
of more stock, readily acquired IL al the
prices that ruled a week earlier. There
are some, no doubt, who are holding on
with the expectation. that prices cannot
remain permanent, and STOCK can event
ually be procured at lower figures. Ihe
amount OF wool which has already been
taken by consumers is far in excess oil
what was sold up TO this time last year,
even allowing for large percentage OF
speculative buying in eastern markets
The sales in Boston, New York, Philadel.
phia and Chicago aggregate o,o12, 400
pounds, against 8, l15, $50 pounds year
ago.
The sales amount to 653, 900 pounds.
Prices are firm, although the aggregate
and individual sales are less than those OF
a few weeks previous.
BOSTON.
Sales amount to 3,94s,00 pounds.
Parties who are in need OF new stock are
acquiring il at prices that ruled week
earlier, but the activity has somewhat
declined.
PHILADELPHIA.
Sales aggregate /, All ,450 pounds. The
market presents the same firm front, with
no sign of weakness. Sales have been
fewer. doubtless due to the fact that man
ufacturors are loaded and to less move
ment of speculative nature.
CHICAGO.
Sales amount to about 600, 900. There
has been a general decline in receipts,
shipments and sales, but the outlook If
hopeful tor a permanence in values.
ST. LOUIS.
| Sales amount to 400, 900 pounds. De
mand is general and prices have beer
