Co"rier-Journal. Berner was paroled
'iy the board of managers Of the re-

required by the new parole law until
the either day. when it was announced
that he would go to his mother at Cum
minsville, o., suburb of Cincinnati,
and there reside, having complied with
that important requirement.. '.s. .
During his long confinement Berner
became almost indispensable to the in

yalne became still more apparent. Su-
perinteudent Hert and the board of
managers determined to recall him and
place him in charge of the engine
rooms. This was done, and he has been
quietly at his duties since Monday,
when he returned from Cumminsvil'r T..
Berner's alleged offense was the muir

BIG FIRE IN LOUISVILLE,
Property Valued at Quarter of a Million
DESTROYED.

Louisville, KY, June s5.-The entire
strength Of the Louisville fire depart
ment was summoned to combat a fire in
the wholesale tobacco district, which
for a time threatened TO do enormous
damage. After a gallant struggle the
firemen succeeded in gaining the mas
terry. In twenty minutes the walls Of
Smead e Co.'S iron foundry were tot
tering and in an hour property to the
value OF $25O,000 had gone up in smoke.
Smead & Co. occupied the buildings
extending from Main 10 Market street.
between Eighth and Ninth streets. The
loss to their foundry will be total They
are said to have had large government
contracts in hand. Their loss can only
be estimated at present, which is be-
tween $250,000 and $500, 900. At 10 O'Clock
the Phoenix hotel, block east in Mar
ket street, caught from the sparks
emitted by the foundry fire and II will
likely be destroyed. The guests are re-
ported to be safely out OF the hotel.
