TO BLOCKADE CHARLEsTOS.
A Part or the Mnn9uvres or Admir-
Hunce's Powerful Fleet.

WAsHISGToS. Jan. s. Admiral Bunce's
squadron OF evolution Is to blockade Charleston
early IN February. The Admiral had a long
conference with Secretary Norbert and other
naval officials to-day, and as a result his plans
for drills and mannuvres. OF which the rigid
blockade OF Charleston. :, o., ia the chief fea-
ture. were thoroughly approved. The scheme
involves the maintenance Of a strong blockad-
ing fleet OF Charleston harbor. and the assign
ment OF ono or more fast vessels, including tho
Vesuvius. TO duty as blockade runners.
Stores and coal will be massed at Port Royal
as n base for the smaller blockading cruisers,
but the battle ships and perhaps tho big cruisers
will have co take turns going to Hampton Roads
for supplies, unless It proves feasible to serve
them on the high seas. II Is expected that the
new cruiser Brooklyn, which will be ready to
leave Philadelphia tomorrow TO get q silver
service from the city for which sho was chris
tened, and Is then under orders to take aboard
her torpedo outfit at Newport, will be attached
to the squadron In time for the manRnvres.
The fleet will be the most powerful gathered
in recent years, including the battle ships
Massachusetts,. Indiana, Maine, and Texas. tho
cruisers New York, Brooklyn. Columbia, New
ark. Raleigh, Montgomery, Marblehead, and
Castine. the ram Katahdin, the monitors Puri-
tan and Anphitrite, the torpedo boats Gushing
and Ericsson. the despatch vessels Dolphin and
Vesuvius, and the transport Fern.

TIM M,CARTnr,s nan LICK.
His building Is Burncd While lie Goes 70
GIHr the Alnrm.

WuiTEsTONR, l.. l.. Jan. While William
Kinney. between ? and 3 o'clock this morning,
was sleeping In tho saloon building belonging to
Timothy Mccarthy the building was destroyed
by fire. Tho inmates narrowly escaped being
burned to death. The building. which was used
until a year ago Ms q liquor saloon. with living
apartments OH the second floor. was occupied
only by the owner. Timothy Mccarthy. and
Kinney. The latter has been In the habit Of
keeping house while Mccarthy WAS at work.
After n severe Illness. several months ago. Mo-
Carthy's wife became insane and was committed
to sn asylum. Her two small children were
later placed In an institution.
Mccarthy and Kinney retired M usual last
night, the former occupying n room on the
lower floor. while the latter slept up stairs. The
fire was discovered by Mccarthy. who was
awakened by the smoke. He shouted TO Kinney
TO get out Of the house. and thinking that Kim
ney had answered him aud was obeyine, Nc
Carthy hasteled to give the alarm. lie ran
i've blocks In his bare feet and without hat or
coat. but before no reached the nre-bell tower
the blaze from the building had lighted up the
whole village. After ringing the fire bell Nc
Carthy returned to the burning build
Ing and was soon followed by the fire
company. When Mccarthy arrived At
his house. which was now almost entirely en-
veloped In flames, he found kinney sitting on
the ground In the yard with his back resting
against a tree. The old man was nearly ex-
bansted and could scarcely speak. He was clad
only In his nlehtclothes. His hands and head
were ~blistercd by the fire. He told Mccarthy
that he did not awaken until he felt the sting
OF the flames, which leaped from his bedclothcs
about his head, smuggling on his hair. When he
jumped out OF bed. he said. his chances for es-
cape seemed hopeless. II. thought at first that
escape by way Of the stairs was cut
OF by the flames. The hallway on both
sides was ablazc. In "a frantic effort no
managed to reach the stairs and make "A hasty
descent through the sailing smoke. lie fell
from weakness whcn he reached the door, but
the cold air revived him for n moment and
he crawled to the spot where Mccarthy found
him sitting by the tree. Some Of tho firemen
took the old man to n hotel near by. where he
soon recuperated. The fire gained head way so
rapidly that the fire companies were unable to
save any part of the building.
The nearest building to the fire was the large
dancing pavilion In Knabs Park. and II was with
difficulty that this building was kept from
taking fire from the sparks which showered
down upon the roof. The loss in McCarthy'S
building is about $4,000. The insurance
amounts to 81 800. The fire II believed to hAys
started from II defective chimney hue.

ELEDdTION OF ERIE TRACKS.
The Plans OF the Company's Engineers Net
Acceptable to Jersey City.


The plans prepared By the Erie Railroad en-
gineers for the elevation OF the tracks In Jersey
City were submitted TO Mayor wanser yester-
day. John J. Nevin. the Mayors private sec
rotary. took the plans to the office OF the Board
OF Street and Water Commissioners and the
Commissioners held a secret session and ex-
amincd them. They were not satisfactory. and
Secretary Ncvin took them back to the Mayor.
One OF the Commissioners remarked that the
railroad company demanded too much.
Mayor Wanser will invite the railroad officials
to u conference. Under the original arrange
ment the city authorities agreed to close Divi-
sion, Provost. Barnum. and Brunswick streets.
Now II IL said that the company's plans provide
for the closing OF other streets. They want to
close Fleet street Mt the west end OF tho tunnel
and want changes made In some adjacent
streets.
\ suggestion was made that the company's
plans had boon prepared desianedly to prevent
the city from accepting them. The Legislature
meets next week, and IL is said than an effort
will be made to repeal the law requiring the
elevation Of the tracks. Mayor Wanser does
not believe this. lilo thinks the company ia
acting in good faith, and that matters will 10
satisfactorily arranged at the conference.
