The Union Sensation.

Union. S. c Feb. 11.-Tbe attempt
ed burning of the new bank building is
still shrouded iu mystery. The accused
party, gentleman of high standing
and merit, tells his version of the affair
through the columns Of to-day's local
paper. He denies the charges and says
that it is a scheme to defame him.
This is very serious affair as all par
ties connected Herewith are of the best
character. and as there is no doubt
about the attempt being made to burn
this building, which would have caused
untold loss to the town. the matter
assumes very dangerous phase. Fur
ther revelations ara expected and the
blame will be placed, DO doubt, where
it belongs. This affair has been almost
the sole topic Of conversation here
to day, as it beyond doubt one of the
most serious that has ever happened

Attempt 20 Burn the New
Bank Building.

UNION, Feb 10.-Tbe startling iu-
formation has just leaked out that an
unsuccessful attempt vas made to burn
the handsome new bank building stu
ated on Main street. It seems that the
attempt to burn this building was made
10 the cellar of the drug store on Mon
day night last and the mode of proceed
ure was as follows: A pile of
straw was saturated with kero.
sene and a lighted candle was placed
in the middle Of the straw, and
when the candle burned low it
would have lighted the straw. 1t
was fortunately discovered in time to
prevent what would have been one of
the most serious fires the town had ever
had.
This building is by far the hand
soonest in town and has only been com.
plete short time and is occupied by
the Merchants aud Planters National
bank and the Union Drug company.
10 it is also situated the opera house
and quite number Of handsome off.
ces
What makes the matter all the worse
is that parties Of the highest standing
and character are implicated. This
subject has been the all-absorbing topic
CT conversation here to-day and further
particulars are awaited with intense
interest. The building above refer
red to cost about $4,000.

the United States for the term begin.
ming March 4, 1897, and after the an.
nouncement of the result adjourned
until to morrow. The votes of the
several States were read in turn by
the tellers-Senators Lodge (Rep)
Of Massachusetts, and Blackburn
Oem. of Kentucky and Representa-.
tives Grosvenor (Rep of Ohio and
Richardson Dem Of Tennessee
and the result stated by Vice Presi-
dent Stevenson, who presided over
the joint convention. 1t was that
Mr.. Mckinley had received 27l votes
for President, and Mr.. Bryan 176 (;
that Mr. Hobart had received 271
votes for Vice President, Mr. Sewall
149, and Mr.. Watson q. 1t was
stated that this was a sufficient de-
claration in law for the election of
Messrs Mckinley and Hobart for the
term stated asPresident and Vice
President respectively.
The proceedings were witnessed
by an immense crowd of spectators
that filled all the galleries, but with
out the crush in the buildings that
has marked previous similar occa.
sions
The spectators of the count were
largely the members Of congress
mems families and their intimate
friends, the galleries by resolution
having been reserved for their use.
One section of about 200 seats was
thrown open to the public The
abandonment by Representative Mure
ray of South Carolina of his previously
announced intention to object to the
counting of the vote of that State
had the effect of decreasing general
interest in the proceedings 1t fell
to Mr.. Grosvenor's lot to announce
the 9 votes Of South Carolina for
Bryan and Sewall AS he did so an
expectant silence fell on the assem-.
bly,, but not a whisper of protest
was heard. Mr.. Grosvenor declared
that the certificate appeared to be in
proper form, and it was accepted.

Situation in Crete.
Turks and Christians Are
Killing and Burning.

Canea, Crete, Feb lit is stated
on good authority that the governor of
Crete, George Pasha Berovitcb, is de-
sirous of resigning his Office. but that
the porte wishes that he should remain
here. The entire Moslem population
about the city Of HerakliOu have enter
ed that place, where they attacked the
Christians and pillaged their shops.
The prefect of Sitia reports that 800
Mosems have been killed in that dis
trict by Christians. It is reported that
the Moslems at Retimo have blown up
with dynamite a number of houses.
owned or occupied by Christians. No
mention is made of loss of life being
caused by the explosions
1t is reported that the Christians are
massacreing Moslems in the villages
around Sitia and that l3 villages are
burning. The Moslems continued to
prevent the departure from the island
not only of native Christians, but also
of foreigners. It is probable that the
foreign worships here will intervene
and demand that those who wish to
leave the island shall be allowed to do
60 without hindrance
Confirmation has been received OF the
reports of atrocities com mitted on wo

SALISBURY WORRIED.


London, Feb. 1.-THE Pail Mall
Gazette, commenting upon the Cretan
situation, says there is abundant foun-
datiou for The belief that the sending of
the Greek hotilla to Crete is looked
upon by the British government as a
matter so serious as to threaten conse-
aueuces Of the greatest import. In
view of the fact that the action of
Greece was entirely independent and
taken without conveying the slightest
potion to the powers, the Gazette says,
Lerd Salisbury may be relied upon to
take prompts and decisive measures to
ueutrslize its effect.
