Three Burned to Death at Fort

 A fire which broke out Monday night at Fort Adams. near Newport, R. l., in the stables of Light Battery F. Fourth artillery, not only destroyed the stables, but communicated to a neighborinR gun shed containing some powder. and the explosion which followed killed Private Sullivan of Battery A, Seventh artillery, and two unknown soldiers. seriously in jured Private l..

Flanagan. Bat tery A, and H. Clay, Battery H, also of the Seventh artillery. received painful burns.
 The fire was caused by the explosion of lamp in the southwest wing of the stables. The flames. igniting some straw, spread with rapidity through the build ing. One of the sentries gave the alarm by firing his rifle, and in a few minutes the entire garrison was fighting the flames.
 There were 150 horses in the stables when the fire broke out. but all were taken out. While the soldiers were do- ing their utmost to get the horses out, gun shed blew up almost without warning. the force hurling a number of the soldiers into the flames. All were rescued save Sullivan and two others. whose bodies were horribly burned and mangled.
 A search of the ruins after the fire disclosed the bodies of two soldiers. neither of which could be identified. In addition to the damage done to the offi- cers' quarters from flying brands. small barn belonging to Battery II was also destroyed.

The Grave of DaYfd.

The Cologne Gazette relates that during his visit to Jerusalem the Ger. man emperor visited the so called grave of David by special permission of the sultan and that he is the first Christian who has ever approached this spot, a circumstance that the imam, who held conversation with the emperor, called to his attention.
 Thereupon the Rev. Johannes Win. kler writes in the Volksblatt of Linz, Austria, that he contests the honor with the emperor. He says that he was at the grave of David on April 23 of this year in company with Raphaele Lorenzo, we'll known in Jerusalem. A backsheesh of a franc made the Mohammedan at. tendant friendly in his disposition, and when Herr Winkler allowed him to ex- anime his white coat, which pleased him greatly, he opened the grave with. out even being asked to, wbereat Mir. Lorenzo was greatly astonished. The grave was marked at that time by oatafalque, covered with valuable old rug. Through an unglazed window Herr Winkler could see the vale of Cedron and the region about the Dead sea. When be visited the same place 3 years ago, he was not even allowed tc peep through the door into this cham. Der. He concludes thak he, and rot the German emperor, was the first Christian 10 visit the sSo..

LEATHER PLANT BURNED.
Four Hundred Employees Have q
 Narrow Escape From Death.


 Newark. N. J., Dec. 21.-The plant of the Chrome Patent Leather company, at Avenue A and Murray street, in this city, was destroyed by fire late yester- day afternoon. The flames broke out in the drying room and within a few minutes spread to every part of the big building. The building was three stories high and 250 feet square.
 One hundred girls and 300 men were at work in the works when the flames broke out. They had not even time to secure their street clothing. The girls screamed and jostled each other while getting out, and the escape became a panic. No one seems to have been se- verely hurt, but several were knocked down and badly bruised. Some of the employees lost their heads and wanted to jump from upper windows, but were restrained with difficulty. Some of the girls tainted and had to be carried out. Others, after getting out of the build ing, ran screaming hysterically to their homes, and this gave rise to the belief that several had been burned to death. The firemen could do little, owing to the rapidity with which the flames spread. The loss is estimated at s100.- 900. The insurance is between $60,000 and s70 OOO
