forded excellent possibilities of the en-
tire building being Quilted.
BY good fortune, not even spark
could be found in either place, and the
department is deserving of commenda-
ton for the manner in which the fire
was handled.
Three members of the department
were injured during the early part OF
excitement. Assistant Engineer c. o.
Lamb and Lieut.. e. C. Noyes of Engine
/, who was in charge of his company
in the absence of Capt. Buffum, We're
cut by glass.
The former was struck by a piece of
the heavy plate window in the front
of the market, which flew out when the
window broke, cutting bad cash over
his left eye, requiring four stitches to
close it.
Lieut.. Noyes was inside the market
when he was caught between the
streams of Engine l and Hose 2, caus-
ing him to lose his balance. He fell
and in trying to break his fall, cut his
left hand on the broken glass of a
show case.
The men were taken to DR.. Kenyon's
office, where the wounds were dressed.
/ Lieut.. Noyes cut the back of his
hand, and will be incapacitated for
duty for some time.
| Driver L. A. Gilbert of Ladder had
a narrow escape from losing the sight
of his left eye. While hitching his
team, the hook at the end of one of
the harness spiders struck him square
! ly in the eye, inflicting several small
but painful cuts.
| Aid to State Fire Marshal Robert E.
Mott was at the market yesterday fore
noon trying to locate the cause of the
| fire, which is as yet shrouded in mys-
terry. There were two small gas stoves
located in the upper and lower offices,
/ respectively, but whether the fire start
/ ed from them or not, cannot be stated.
| The manager of the store says they
are shut off every night, and he sup
posed last night was no exception TO
the rule. One of them may have been
! left burning by mistake, and commu-
ricated to the wood work of the
Office.
another theory is that a cigar stump
or match may have been thrown down
carelessly in the Office and commune
Gated to the saw dust which covered
the floor. An incandescent electric
lamp is left burning nights in the
lower office, but it is thought improb-
able that any defect with the wires
caused the trouble.
The fire patrol spread about 80 COW
ers. saving much of the stock from
water damage.

IN WALL STREET.
Stock Market Independent c
Foreign Influence.
Business in Stocks and Bonds Well Dis
tributed and Active.

New York, Oct 22-The stock mar
ket again showed itself independent of
the depressing influence of London and
Europe, except at the opening, when
few of the international stocks We're
allowed to fall below the London
parity.
The selling of stocks on foreign ac-
count made up a considerable proper
ton Of the days business and was well
absorbed at advancing prices. The
buoyancy of the wheat market made
the grain carrying roads prominent in
the movement, the buying of Atchison
securities, particularly the preferred
again occupying a conspicuous place.
But the stocks of all the western
roads were we'll bought and advanced
in price. Sugar ended its downward
course very early and closed near the
top, with a new gain of Ia, the under
lying strength manifest in the market
making the bears timid about leaving
short contracts uncovered over Sunday
Tobacco was marked up to 1898. with
every evidence Of violent manipulation
and shorts were driven to cover heavily
at every stage of the advance. Ever
the coalers showed the effects of the
uncertain temper developed by the
bears and recovered on short covering
The bank statement was about as eX-
pected and had little effect.
The gain in cash has been in import
ed gold and by outgo from the sub
treasury, and the heavy increase il
loans of over $10,0000O0 represents for
the most part the sterling, which is an
element in the process of lending
money. s5'
The increase in deposits from this
source expanded the reserve require
ments and the increased cash only
served to raise the surplus by $3,50Q,-
us.
Business both in stocks and bonds
was well distributed and active, and
the market showed decided tendency
to- broaden out. The amount of bust
ness done was large than for any half.

THE RECENT WAR.
Donald Mackay Writes to His Former
Countrymen About 1t.

Mr.. Donald Mackay, a well-known
Worcester man, published letter in
the Northern Ensign" Scotland, in
which he tells in few words the story
of the war with Spain, and the results
accruing from it. Part of the sub
stance of his letter is published be-
low ts
The attitude of European nations to-
ward the belligerents during the war
is perhaps the most interesting and
most important feature of the strug-
gle. France, Austria, Germany gave
moral support to their neighbor, SPAIN
England, feeling her Anglo-SaXon blood
to be the same as. that which coursed
in the veins of America, came over
heartily to our side. The union jack
and the stars and stripes waved side
by side, twin emblems of liberty of peo-
pie and freedom of thought, of civiliza-
ton and progress. The crosses of st.
George and St. Andrew were hailed
with as much enthusiasm in America
as was our star spangled banner in
England. America has undergone a
vast change in public sentiment toward
the mother country, and the titles Brit
scornfully. There is nothing in the
world so delightful, so full of hope for
humanity, than to see two great ma
lions allied in every common interest
when their governments represent
equality and progress. 1t is of special
interest to those who have ties of rela-
tionship in both countries.
While there may never be a defined
offensive and defensive Anglo alliance
recognized by the two governments, yet
there is this one thing certain, that the
people are united in sympathies, in d
common purpose, in a unity of hearts
governed by the highest aims There
is in Scotland one man with a good
heart and a good brain who has done
more in an impressive and practical
way than all the legislators and diplo-
mats, to promote an alliance of the
English-speaking people. Mr.. Andrew
Carnegie has devoted himself to this
work, and he may have the happiness
to see the fruits of his labors brought
home to him.
Their have been some unfortunate
features in the war, the most notable
among them being the prominence Civ
en- to ambitious politicians in the mill
tary appointments. Appointments were
given men out of civil life who had no
recommendation but politics, and no
knowledge of military usages. Incorl-
petent, in some cases worse than ig-
norant, they were not able to care for
the men under them. More men died
of starvation and neglect, brought
about by this ignorance, than were
killed in battle. The volunteers who
returned to Worcester were scarcely
able to walk, some of them unable to
march from the depot to the armory.
And all of them were mere shadows
of the former rudy men who marched
out some four months ago. A great
victory is indeed a great sorrow.

ashore Acres has given it's annual
benediction TO Worcester, and this city
is all the better for it. Amid so much
that is trivial or common or common
place on the stage, the sweetness, the
purity and the delicacy of Mr.. Herne's
drama stand forth surrounded by some
thing very like a halo of moral beauty.
One is distinctly better for having seen
it. The writer has seen it so many
times that she has lost the count. but it
has still the old charm for her. 1t is so
broadly human, with pathos and a
humor so clear and genuine that it
ought to wear until the social environ
ment that made it possible and intelll-
gible has given way to new conditions.

The reason why that the French con-
demned that Dreyfus, the Italians i'm
prisoned their editors and the Spanish
ill-treated the Cubans, is because the
French are French, and the Italians
are italian, and the Spaniards are
Spanish They did what they did be-
cause they are what they are, and they
are what they are because they have
all along been committing just such
crimes on the sly, only the crimes were
less conspicuous and they did not hap
pen to be caught at them.
Race inheritance, which tells so mag
niffcently in the case of England, proves
to be a cat of another color on the other
side of the channel Theologians long
ago used to discuss predestination, and
it's effe&s upon the future life of the in
dividual; but the predestination which
operates through race heredity over
destinies of nations, leading them into
the morasses and jungles Of injustice,
inhumanity DISQUALIFICATION and hui
initiation, or to the tablelands of in
tegrity, justice, honor, law and order,
although more recent of discovery is
not less terrible and relentless.

ALL WANT 4 SLICE.

Land-grabbing Europe is looking on
the American-Spanish war with
jealous eyes. The nations of the con-
tineIt are convinced that Spain must
lose large amount of territory as
result OF the controversy. They know
that Cuba, Porto Rico and Philippine
Islands in the future will not be known
as Spanish domain. This concerns
them but little, so for as their love for
Spain is concerned. and they would
rejoice that it is so if they could but be
considered in the division of the spoils.
Germany and France would be de-
lighted to divide up the Philippine
Islands between them, and would not
hesitate to make demand that the
American feet be withdra In from
Manila bay if they were not afraid
Great Britain would object; or if
America would agree to give them the
Philippines they would form an alli-
ance with this country to wipe Spain
off the map of the world. They want
some of the territory, but they will
not get it. The United States will
not, after wrestling the Philippines
from the grasp of one set of oppressors,
deliver them into the hands of an
other. If the islands are not held by
America they will be made free and
