LONDON'S FURRY
ABOUT BERNATO.
The Suicide of the Famous Dia-
mOnd SpeculatOr
Confirmed.
BROKERS IN EXCITED FRENZY.
The News Affects the Stock Market = Wo-
man Claims the Dead Mans
Millions.

London, June 15.-The officials of
the Union Steamship company, to
which the steamer Scott belongs, con-
firm the announcement made last
night in dispatch from Funchal, ISL
aDd of Madeira, that Barney Barnato,
the South African "diamond king"
committed suicide by jumping over
board while that vessel was on the
way from Capetown, which port she
left June for Southampton.
The death of Barnato has caused a
sensation in financial circles. HIS
office here was besIeged this morning
by eager Inquirers, and even then his
firm had not received confir m alton of
the news. Thro1morton' street is
filled with excited crowds of brokers
discussing Barnato's death.
His self-destruction is generally
supposed to have been the outcome of
his recent illness, which, according to
rumOrs on the exchange, was in the
nature of brain trouble.
The African market, as the result of
the death of Barnato, was depressed
today. Barnato consolidated was 81
lower, Johannesburg investment went
down d, chartered company securi-
ties fell Z, Debeers mines went down
5.l6 and Rand mines were q lower.

The Big Immigrant Station on Ell
lis Island Destroyed by
Fire.
COST EIGHT HUNDRED THOUSAND.
Many Immigrants in the Burning Building
Barely Escape Death The Origin
a Mystery.

New York, June l5 Fire at an
early hour this morning destroyed the
Immigrant landing station that COW
cred almost all of Ellis leland, caus-
ing loss of about $500 900 to the
United States Government. All the
Government records and baggage were
rescued frOm the burning structures
and brought safely to this city. Not
one of them received a burn. There
were forty patients in a wooden hos.
pital building in the rear of the main
structure, who were carried out on
cots just before the hospital took fire.
The cause of the fire is mystery.
It started in the east end of the main
structure, which Is more than 1000
feet long and three stories high
When Chief Nightwatchman Burke
noticed the fire, it was licking around
one of the towers. 1t was seen at a
glance that the big main building was
doomed, and 1t required quick work to
carry out the helpless sick before the
heat prevented the approach to the
hospital. Meantime some of the i'm
migrants who had escaped from the
main building had become anxious
about their baggage, and despite the
fact tbs irtting was last being
encOmpasset IN flames, rushed back
TO save it. In all unknown tongues
they insisted that their all was con-
tanned in boxes and bundles which
they had brought over: Captain
Burke and his men had to fairly fight
them back on the boat. They wept
and wrung their hands when they
found it was impossible to save their
property. The fire by this time had
the main building in its embrace, and
the flames Illuminated the whole har-
b0r, lighting up the lower end of New
York almost as plainly as day.
The engine house was the only
bniIding of importance on the island
which escaped destruction.

CRUISER COMING
TO This HARBOR.
Lieutenants Aiken and Wright
Successful In Their
Request.
RESERVES RENDEZVOUSAT ST.SIMON
The Savannah Reserves May Unite With
Them Another Summer
Attraction.

THE TINES received the following
telegram yesterday morning:
Baltimore, June Is.
THE TINES Succeeded In having
Navy Department order cruiser to
Brunswick middle of July; every
thing else promised.
AIKEN AND WRIGHT.
Lieutenants Frank D. Aiken ard
James S. Wright, of the Brunswick
Naval Reserves, left last week for
Boston, to attend the convention of
the Naval Reserve Association of the
United States. They stopped at
Washington, to see Secretary
Long and Assistant Secretary Roose-
velt, of the Navy Department, in re-
gard to the matter mentioned in the
telegram above.
The Navy Department issued an an
nouncement some time ago that, in
lieu of sending a warship to the vari-
GUS ports to give the Naval Militia or
ganizatiOns tour of duty, as has been
the custom in the past, the plan would
be altered this year, and the divisions
of Georgia, North Carolina and South
Carolina assembled for a ten-day rem
devious ct Beaufort; S. G.
This plan did not suit the Bruns-
wick Reserves, as 1T required their alb
sence from home for too long time.
Lieutenants Aiken and Wright there
fore decided to request the Navy De-
partment to allow the Brunswick Re-
serves to have their encampment on
st. Simon, and to send a warship TO
give them the advantage of training
and target practice.
The response to their request, as
stated in the telegram above, insures
lively time at st. Simon during the
month of July. The lnfantry will be
in camp on the island at that time,
and the combination will make a big
attraction to visitors.
1t is probable that arrangements
will be made for joint encampment
of the Brunswick and Savannah Re-
serves, constituting the Georgia Bat
talion. This will give the rendezvous
new interest, as it will be the first
appearance of the entire Georgia
forces in this service.
Which one of the cruisers will be
available for the Brunswick assign
ment is not known yet, but it will
probably be the Atlanta or the
Raleigh.

Hopeful in Ohio.

Columbus, Ohio, June l5-A wave
of misery and depression makes the
democrats SO confident of success that
there are twenty eight candidates for
governor. William Jennings Bryan is
idoiized and the power and prestige of
his name grows as the story of indus
trial and agricultural misery spreads.

PASSAGES Improvements.

The improvement of the monitor
Passaic is very creditable to the Naval
Reserves, The monitor has been
newly painted throughout, and her
decks fitted with awnings, making an
ideal summer retreat for the members
of the two divisions. During the
time of the Naval Reserves rendez-
vOus at st. Simon, the Passaic Will
probably be anchored in the Sound.

senators are Republicans. Their votes

ment.

He Has a New Idea for Tariff Bill
Amendment.

Amendment.
Washington, D. o., Jnne l5.-Sena-
tor Tlllman today gave notice of an
amendment he will offer to the tariff
bill providing for head tax of ST on
all immigrants to the United States.
The amendment also makes it mis-
demeanor, punishable by fine and
imprisonment, for any person TO enter
the United States for the purpose of
engaging in trade or manual labor
without intending to become a citizen.
These provisions are modified by a
prOviso to the effect that they shall
only remain in effect until silver shall
be admitted TO our mints for coinage
at the ratio of 16 to on the same con-
ditions with gold.
