A Great Baptist Disaster
Burning of the Publication
Building in Philadelphia

PHILADELPHIA, February 2.-The
fercest, most stubborn and most de.
structive fire that has visited Phila-
delphia in years broke out at 3 20
this morning in the cellar Of the
Hazeltine buildings. Nos. l,416 and
Ais Chestnut street, and before it
had been subdued the Hazeltine build
ing and the American Baptist Publ
cation Society's building. at Nos.
l,420 and 1922 Chestnut street,
were destroyed, the dry goods store
of Homer Leboutillier & Co., Nos
,412 and l l,414 Chestnut street, was
badly damaged and the rear of the
Hotel Lafayette, which faces on
Broad street. was damaged to the
extent of $4,000 The approx
mate loss by the fire is s1,075 900,
the greater part of which is covered
by insurance
The origin Of the fire is not def
nitely known When the fremen
arrived the Hazeltine building was
already mass Of flames in the inte-
rior. The building was seven sto
ries in height, with an ornate front
of brick and terra Gotta 1t was
very substantially built, and at first
the fremen thought they could con-
fine the fire within it's walls. The
flames, however, spread through the
building with great fury and the fire
was soon beyond the control of the
department on the ground. Several
alarms brought nearly every fire COM
pany in the city to the scene. The
flames eaped up high into the air
and burst out in the rear of the build
ings and threatened the handsome
club house Of the Union League Club
with destruction.
The loss on the building is proba-
billy s250,000 and Mr.. Hazeltine
claims that his stock of pictures was
worth $3.50, 1000. The building was
fully covered by insurance and there
was partial insurance on the pic
lures j. B Woodford, manager of
the Steteson Company, could not
estimate his loss. but it is probably
about SO, 1000, fully covered by in.
surance The loss to the other ten.
ants of the building will probably
foot up $4,000 more The loss to
the American Baptist Publication
Society is $25O,OO0 on stock and
machinery, and $4,000 on the
building On the stock there is an
insurance of 100000 and on the
building Sll5,000.. In the cellar of
the Baptist Publication Society in
vaults is 100000 worth of plates
of publications, and it is not known
whether these have been destroyed.
The most serious loss to the pub!ica.
tion society is the destruction Of the
valuable library of the Baptist His
torical Society and several hundred
historical papers of the denomination
that cannot be replaced The ten
ants of the publication society's
building lose about $4,000 Homer

covered by insurance.

$4,000 BY fire and water This loss
is covered by insurance. The hotel

NO FEAR OF ARBITRATION.

According to Mr.. John Bolton: a
Fellow Of the Royal Geographical
Society, Great Britain need have no
fear of referring the dispute to arb'-
tration In letter which he has
written to the newspapers he says
that he has seen and examined the
Spanish and Dutch records, and they
prove the British claims fully. Mr..
Bolton holds that the Schomburgk
line is ill-defned and cannot clearly
be identified, but the records, he de-
clares, confirm the British title to
territory to the westward of that line,
The representative of the United
Press, in an interview with Sir Au
gustus Hemming, the newly ap-
pointed Governor of British Guiana,
asked whether the Government had
instructed him to make overtures to
Venezuela directly for settlement
of the boundary trouble. He replied
that he had received no instructions
concerning the boundary question.

to the increasing gravity of the rate
situation in the South. The opening
was fairly active and weak, at declines
extending to 15s per cent. A moderate
rally ensued shortly after the initial
sales. The report Of the result of the
conference of foreign bankers caused
a rally of point or thereabouts in the
more active shares about two o'clock.
In the late hour, realizing sales
caused a general reaction and the mar
ket closed heavy in tone with prices
fractionally lower than Saturday. Rail-
way bonds were sluggish and weak on
renewed offerings on foreign accounts
Governments were quiet and irregular
with an easier tendency. The sales
were $4,000.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.

New York, July 27-The story of to-
days stock speculation can be briefly
summed up. The volume of business
exceeded by only few thousand
shares the half holiday record of Sat
urday. The movement of prices was
irregular, and a heavy tone was evil
dent throughout. The dealings were
almost entirely professional. There
appeared to be a dearth of connis-
sion orders and the market made only
an Indifferent rally on the news that
the committee of foreign exchange
houses had submitted a plan for con-
trolling the exchange situation for the
next ninety days, which had been for
mally approved by all of the represen-
tative banking interests. The attitude
of London as seller was reported to be
partly due to the unfavorable reports

HUBBARD BROS. & CO.'S LETTER.
New York, July EFT peciaD-
Liverpool was reported to be adversely
affected by American selling supposed
to represent offerings from the South.
Our market has been Influenced by the
poor crop advices contained in the
mail this morning from the Missis-
sippi Valley and Arkansas and refused
to follow the decline abroad. The
situation in some portions of Arkansas
is serious which may tend to change
the current opinion regarding the
outcome Of the crop, in the meantime
the trade seems disposed TO regard the
situation changed and while admitting
a decided deterioration in many sec
tions they claim it is not more than in
the average season. The early receipts
are expected 10 prevent any upward
movement in the present depressed
condition Of business, but should the
crop reports become radically worse,
speculation may be attracted 10 cotton.
The reiteration of poor crop accounts
from the Mississippi Valley, accom-
panied by buying orders, caused an
advance at the close of business. 1t
is expected that large buying orders
win be sent to Liverpool this evening
for cotton which will cause sharp
advance in that market in the morn
ing.
