FInEs.-The roof of small frame
house on the west side of Henry street,
between Queen and Princess, was dis.
covered to be on fire about quarter
past eleven o'clock this morning. An
alarm soon brought the department to
the scene. When the engines arrived
the entire roof was burning tiercely,
the flames being famed by a fierce
northwest wind. In an incredibly
short time the fire was entirely out, not,
however. until the roof had been nearly
burned oil. The adjoining frame houses
were in no wise damaged. The house
was occupied and owned by Joseph

by detective flew.

think the fire originated from spark;
from the glass works, while others
think that the stable was set on fire.

ALL QUIET.-An attempt was made
last night to keep up the excitement
incident to the late lynching by the
circulation OF absurd reports of intend
ed incursions of negroes into the city.
But little attention was paid to them
when they came to the ears OF the May
or's, who went home after the relief was
sent out The reports were 10 the effect
that negro servants had requested per-
mission to remain in the houses of white
people who employed them, as general
uprising among the blacks was to take
place. Lieutenant Smith, who had
charge OF the night squad, kept a sharp
lookout until six O'Clock this morning,
and nothing whatever occurred to war
rant the rumors which had been circu-
lated. In fact the night was more than
usually quiet, no arrests having been
made, nor was any disorder reported.
1t is still believed, however, that Sat-
urday nights precautions were by no
means unnecessary, and that hordes Of
vicious negroes in the county, who were
fired by whisky. contemplated giving
trouble. The prompt action on the
part of the authorities, it is believed,
deferred the invaders. It's also we'll
established fact that negroes left Arm
ory Hall in advance Of the Light Infan-
try and were seen Fastening up the

that they apprised the blacks of the
preparations for their reception. Ger

in the power house at Four-mile run
saw the negroes pass there about the
time the movement was reported here.

THE SITUATION IN THE EAST

THE SITUATION IN THE EAST.
The Greeks have gathered at Phar-
salia from $4,000 to 10000 troops, the
larger part of the army recently at La
rissa. Some anxiety is felt for the
safety of Volo, the port from which La
rissa was provisioned, and a base OF
supplies also. it is believed, for Phar
sala. A telegram received from
Athens states that the Turks are within
an honr's march of Volo and that the
Greek troops have been withdrawn
from the town. The political situation
in Athens seems to be critical. Disap-
pointed by the result of the war so far
the populace are indignant, and want
t. punish somebody. A cabinet crisis
is reported to be imminent.

THE SPICER FAMILY MURDER.
Two Indian boys, Paul Holytrack
aud Philip ireland, have confessed to
the Bismarck, n. D., authorities that
they were at the Spicer place on the
day of the murder of the Spicer family.
The boys implicate themselves as well
as the two half-breeds, Black Hawk
and Caddotte, who have been under ar
rest. The Iudian boys are closely con-
fined in the guard house at Fort Yates,
and will be taken to Williamsport to
testify at the preliminary proceedings
OF the other two men. The boys state
that the murder was planned some
weeks before it was committed, and
hat Black Hawk was the leader. The
four went to the Spicer home on the
day of the murder, Black Hawk and
Caddotte going to the barn and the
two boys TO the house. AT the barn
the two men bound Spicer and Black
Hawk shot him and then split his head
open with an axe. Caddotte then
ran to the house and told Mrs
Spicer that her husband was extremely
i'll at the barn. AS soon as
Mrs. Spicer appeared at the barn door
Caddotte stabbed her through the heart
with a pitchfork. Caddotte then went
to the house and found Holytrack en-
gagged in terrible struggle with Mrs
Rouse. He said to Holytrack "Wby
don't you brain her with the axe. !"
Holytrack replied 81 cannot as the
children are bothering me-" Caddotte
then picked up the axe and dealt each
of the twin babies death blow. The
two fiends then had no trouble in kill
ing Mrs. Rouse. After she was killed
she was outraged by Holytrack. While
this was going on at the house, Black
Hawk had outraged Mrs. Spicer at the
barn. About sixty-two dollars in
money was found and divided by the
four wretches after the completion of
their bloody work. Excitement is at
fever heat, and it is more than likely
all four will be lynched.

COLONEL MosBY's CONDITION.

| COLONEL MOSBY'S CONDITION
Col. John s. Mosby was not con-
tinuously conscious during yesterday
There appeared to be an unfavorable
change in his condition and DR.. Hunter
Mcclure, of Richmond, was summoned.
He arrived in the afternoon and con-
suited with DR.. Nelson. Ether was
used and an examination of the wound
effected. A fracture was found, but an
operation was deemed unnecessary.
The chances were regarded as about
even, probably slightly in favor of re-
covery. DR.. Mcclure returned to
Richmond in the afternoon. The Colonel
is resting comfortably just now and
there was more hopeful feeling last
night than there was in the morning.
The situation is still grave and causes
much anxiety. Mr.. Beverly Mosby, of
Salt Lake City, and John S. Mosoy,
jr., sons Of the injured man, have been
summoned and are on their way to
Charlottesville.
DR.. Mcclure says that while Colonel
Mostly is very desperately wounded,
and is extremely i'll, he has a good
chance for recovery, and all of his ply
sicians and friends are hopeful. When
asked to describe Colonel Mosby's
wounds, DR.. MCGUIRE said they consist
OF fracture OF the skull, the loss of an
eye, and confusion of the brain. The
skull is fractured on the bony edge of
the eyes orbit, and the bone leading to
the nose and joining the cavity of that
organ to the cavity of the eye is also
shattered. The ball of the eye, which
was removed several days ago: was
burst by the force of the blow, which
caused the injury The confusion of
the brain naturally causes unconscious
ness, but the sufferer recognized DR..
Mcclure when he entered his room yes
terday mcrning, and that leads the
physician to hope that the brain will
recover from its injury. Colonel Mosby
is about sixty. eight years of age, though,
and this will make against him and
cause his recovery, if he he does re
cover, to be slow.
A telegram was received in this city at -
o'clock to-day from Charlottesville saying
that Colonel Mosby was resting more CON-
fortably and that his condition was consider
ed better,
