Washington, July l1.-Shortly after
midnight the war department gave out
the following dispatch from Gen.
Shafter: Enemy opened FIRE few
minutes past four with light guns,
which were soon silenced by ours.
Very, little musketry firing and the
enemy kept entirely in their entrench-

Word has been received from Gen.
Shafter that owing to his belief, which
is equivalent to moral certainty, that
all the Spanish soldiers have left the
city and are in the.iptrenchments, he
is bombardipgyth the intrenchments with
a view Of saving the buildings in. the

When questioned as to whether he
believed that there had been bonn

piled: "You know as much about it Us

should say, however, that the firing
Sunday was but the preliminary to the
more serious business of to-day" This
being the case, the attempt to take the
city will probably be made to-day.
The belief is held by the best in
formed officials that Gen. Toral, the
Spanish commander, will surrender
when he finds it will be impossible for
him to evacuate the city. Upon what
grounds this belief is based could not
be ascertained, but that information
to that effect is in the hands of the
war officials there is no doubt. Gen.
Skaters dispatch shows that he is en-
gagged now in strengthening his posi-
ton and to-day will follow up his oper-
ations with final assault upon the
city.

Fire at Morris Plains.

Local firemen took a general outing to
Morris Plains last Saturday afternoon,
called by telephone messages announc-
ing that fire had broken out at thestables
of Robert A. McCurdy. The chemical
engine of Independent Hose Company
was first to respond and arrived early
at the fire, followed soon after by the fire
department of the State hospital. They
set to work at once, but were unable to
make Roadway on account of the intense
heat from the tons of burning hay.
Later came the supply wagon of the
Resolute Truck. Then Washington En-
CINE came to the rescue, pumping water
from the Watnong stream nearby, and
after the fiercest heat was over they
joined with the Independents in saving
the carriage house and a portion of the
main building. The origin of the fire is
yet a mystery. Most Of the contents of
the building. including eight horses,
eight carriages and carts and two sleighs,
with large amount of harness, were re-
moved, and beyond the building a guam
tity of hay and personal property of the
stablemen, there was little loss.

ELECTRICITY TO SEVER STEEL
Attempt to Burn n Big Safety Vault Into
Sections To BE Made in Cincinnati.

An experiment of scientific interest
Is to be tried in Cincinnati i'm getting
rid of the safety vault of the old Gin
cinnati Safe Deposit & Trust company
in the Lafayette Bank building. The
was built about 40 years ago by the
old Miles Greenwood company. 1t was
purchased by the Lafayette bank with
view to enlarging their banking
room. Then the question rose as To
how to get rid of IL. The walls are con-
structed of layers of hard spring steel
one and one-quarter inches in thick
ness.
James Stacey OF the Stacey Manufac-
turing company has a theory which he
will put to the test. About two years
ago he was in Washington when the
government made a test Of burning
through steel vaults with electricity.
The result was that in IL minutes a
hole large enough to admit man was
made in one of the big government
vaults. Mr.. Stacey has planned to cut
with electricity the old trust company's $
vault into sections that can be con-
veniently handled.
Two operators will be placed In the
vault and a wire for each run In
through a vent hole. The wire will be
attached to a carbon. which will be
manipulated with a heavy handle. The
operators will wear rubber gloves and
goggles of the new glass for the pro-
lection of their eyes against the in
tense light. They will pass the carbon
over the steel walls, burning them in
intersecting lines.

DANGER FROM OERELICrS.
Many Ships Drift for Months After The,
Are Deserted.

Sable island and Cape Sable are
known as the graveyard of the sea, and
an appalingly large number of ships
is lost there annually. But for mere
number Of wrecks there is no ground
that can compare with the American
coast from Cape Hatteras to Cape Cod.
OF course, the wrecks off Cape Sable
are generally bad. both on account of
loss of life and loss of property. OF the
wrecks around this part of the coast
many are small and comparatively few
involve the loss of crews or passengers.
But i'm the number of ships lost there
is no comparison. So many are the
wrecks along the part of the ccdst
mentioned that they cannot be locat-
ed on a map of ordinary scale without
putting the marks two and three deep.
The business of msrking wrecks and
warning marines of the danger on
their routes is on the shoulders of the
navigation department of the United
States navy. The photographic Office
i'm that department has direct charge
Of the matter and sends out frequent
warnings. In cases of a dangerous de-
relict or sunken wreck in the path of
ships a naval vessel is sent out to de-
stroy il and TO clear the channel. The
dynamite cruiser Nesuvius has done
much of this work.
Almost all shipmasters send their re-
ports to the photographic office, and
the reports of dangerous wrecks and
obstructions average about $50 a month.
According TO the last table that has
been made up the number of derelicts
from 1887 to 1898 was 1.62s. The months
during which the greatest number of
derelicts is reported for September.
October and November. and the aver
age time for a derelict to remain afioat

a rather incorrect idea. however. of the
staving qualities of the 'simon pure

"You shall be taken away from Butte
at once" assured the sympathetic hus-
band. Accordingly, at about O'Clock,
Mrs. Levy was placed in a hack and
taken to the American house in Walk
erville. where the smoke does not hover
over the inhabitants. Just as the hack
was passing the Northern Pacific ex-
press office. on Park street, Mrs. Levy
was overcome and was carried into the
office Of DR.. Moore. whose office is in the
Lizzie block. He gave her a restora-
tive, and ordered her taken without de-
lay to walkerville or some other place
out of the sitting smoke. She reached
walkerville at 10 o'clock and. surround

throat and chest. She found temporary
relief only by reclining on the bed, her
head propped up by pillows. She could
not breathe while lying down. Mrs.
Purcell. the landlady, made her some
soup broth. but she could swallow but
a few spoonfuls of IL, complaining that
il was too salty. Some beef tea was
made, and this. too, she said was not
palatable. Gradually she sank. and
her daughters were sent for. At the

Mrs. Levy was the wife of the well

she leaves two daughters Misses Ray

eyelets, and gives the touch which makes
1t look like a new garment.
All the time the shirt has been going
through its various charges the collars and
cuffs have been keeping pace. They too,
are starched and spread out perfectly
smooth, dried and rfnsed In much the same
way, and ironed between rollers. At either
side of the collar and cuff machine sits
woman. One puts them in from one side and
they. are passed back again from tie other,
until they gifsten like satin. The finishing
OF the collars and cuffs is job that requires
singular skill and dexterity. The points and
corners OF the collars have to be turned, and
for this there is a series of small machines.
Near by is a blade of steam, and when the
corners have to be turned or rolled. they
are held over this for half-second until
they are flexible and the required shape can
be given them The shirts are laid I'm great
snowy piles ard the collars and cuffs look
like shavings ir huge basket.
Now comes the most particular part of
the whole work and that Is the asserting
any tying up into the proper bundles All
the articles that belong in one package must
be put together. 1t is a game of solitaire,
over and over again. Few pieces are lost.
The great trouble is that when pieces are
sent to the wrong house they are not re-
turned to the laundry that they may be
sent to the owner.
The capacity of the laundry is from six
hundred to eight hundred shirts day, to
say nothing of collars and cuffs. The work
ers come together at o'clock in the morn
ing, work till noon. have an hour for din
ner and work again from till o'clock.
Each one has two hours off each week for
a holiday. One who wants an afternoon
may take some other woman's two hours
one week and give up her own two the next
week so that during the year holidays are
not limited solely to Sundays. Besides the
shirts, collars and cuffs, the laundry is
quite family like. Delicate colored clothes
are washed by hand and the fannels are not
only done by hand. but in soft distilled
water. Shirt waists, underwear and wom-
ems clothes require more hand work than
shirts collars and cuffs, but one great point
in the washing, which might be used to adj
vantage in family washing, Is the manner
of arranging the garments before they are
put to dry. They are put in shape and this
saves pulling, wear and tear as well as
time in the matter of ironing. The women
get for this work from Sc to 50 week, and
there are always crowds of them anxious to
work in laundry because 1T pays more
money than to work in private families, but
out of this amount the woman has to find
her board and keep
