in the preparation Of these new brands, il
became necessary to condemn a large
quantity of infiamable material which
together with the spruce gum strainings
which have been accommodating for years
will furnish unequalled material for 6

will comprise the bonfire, which will bt

INSURGENTS MIsREPREsENTED.
Gen. Wheeler Says They Will Cause No
Trouble,

| Washington, August 17.-Gen. Wheeler
had three quarters of hour conference
with the President today. The President
wanted to talk over the conditions in
Cuba with him and this was what
brought the general here. The President
nut numerous questions to the hero of the
Santiago campaign and received not only
an account of his general experience in
that campaign, but also his views on vari-
GUS issues incident to the adjustment OF
affairs on tie island. One point that
was uppermost was the possibility o. q
rupture with the Cuban insurgents.
Gen. Wheeler's statements wero very reas-
surfing. IAN the friction" he said, be
tween the Americans and Cubans Will
soon pass away, and there will be har-
mony and the best of feeling between
them
He said there was class OF men IN
Cuba who had never been 1rienuiy 10
the Cubans, but on the contrary hau peeh
favorable to Spain, who likely would 40
all they could to keep up this nlisunder-
standing though he did not apprehend
any dangerous results. Gen. Wheeler sug-
gested the charges against the lnsur.
gents of taking articles in the field had
extenuating circumstances, and especially
in view of the starving condition of many
of them. Gen. Wheeler believed the
Cubans in time, when freed from oppres-
sion, and given stable and humane
government would become law-abiding
and useful people.
The President is very solicitious about
the health of the Montauk Point camp
and gave explicit instructions verably
to Gen. Wheeler as to the conduct of the
camp. He wanted every thing possible
and reasonable done for the interests of
the men at the camp.

FIRE ON FREE ST.
One of the Inmates of Boarding House
Was Badly Burned.

An alarm of fire at 1867 yesterday called
the department to q boarding house on
Free street, in the brick block, few
doors above CENTRE street. The mouse is
kept by Mrs. Jennie Legrow and at the
time of the fire, the rooms were filled
with boarders.
The fire caught in the tank room in the
third story and was discovered by LADY
who has a room on that floor. When the
fremen arrived the flames had gained
considerable Roadway and the place was
very hot. The souttles in the roof were
soon opened and this gave the flremen
little fresh air. Very little water, COM
paratively was used, but still enough TO
soak several of the rooms and spoil the
furniture. The fire was very quickly got
under control, but not until the roof mad
been burned nearly off In the rear and
several apartments on the upper floor
had been ruined. 1t was not until 6.2s
that the all out signal was sounded.
Mr.. O'Neil, who had room near the
source of the fire, was reused and came
out In time to escape all harm, but ne
went back into his room after some
things and was then badly burned in
the face and hands, His wounds. were
attended to on the spot and yesterday
forenoon he was about as usual, although
his face gave him considerable pain.
Mrs. Legrow states that she has no idea
how the fire caught. 1t started near
large tank which is used to supply the
house when the regular water pressure
is light. So far as she knows there was
no infiammable substance there, hence
the cause of the fire is mystery. Mrs
Legrow says she had no insurance on her
furniture and she thinks her loss Will
amount to $500 or more.
The house is owned by Mr.. WEIGH OF
Worcester, and the loss is covered by
insurance. 1t will take $500 or $1,000 to
put on new roof and repair the rest
of the damage.

RIVERTON PARK.

The veteran firemen who are visiting
Dur city are delighted with 1t, as strang-
Prs always are. The number and excel
tence of our summer pleasures make a
deep impression upon them. Last night
many of those who were in the city took
advantage of the opportunity and went
put to Riverton Park. 1t was a reyela-
ton to them. The music ty the Fadettes
was charming and received their special
applause. Tonight the programme is
arranged with special reference to the
visitors and those who remain in the city
It is safe to say that a large majority
will be present at the concert this eve
ming. Towards Comique Novelty COM
pany was also the subject of much praise
from the visitors. Some of them came
from cities where the company has been
engaged this season, and had seen them
before, but they like to compare their
present surroundings with those under
which they had been seen earlier in the
season. The unanimous verdict is that
the park at Riverton is superior to any
other in New England, in point of beauty
and attractiveness
