Appreciated EverywherG

The following is from The Greensboro
Telegram OF February 18th:
Captain John H. Devereux. superin-
tendent Of construction of public build
ingS. is in the city. He came here from
Wilmington last Friday on a Geographic
order from Washington to look into the
condition of the public building here with
a view to its preservation and also in re-
gard to certain work that has just been
completed by Contractor Woodroffe, to
see whether it had been done according
to contract. Mr.. Devereux also stated
that he was directed to examine the land
and surroundings with a view to the en-
largement of the building. He said that
he had made exact measurements of the
grounds owned by the United States and
that the government would not need any
additional ground, and that if it was de-
sired to enlarge the building it could be
done without the delay consequent upon
conforming and buying land.
The visiting inspector is in close con-
sultation with the federal officers locates
here and it is hoped and believed that
Greensboro will soon have a public build
ing in keeping with its prosperity and i'm
portance. 1t Will be recalled that some
time since a bill was introduced in con-
gress carrying an appropriation for the
enlargement of the public building here.
The government is fortunate in hav-
ing in its service a man who is at once
so courteous and efficient as Superin-
tendent Devereux. He knows mis- bust
ness thoroughly and is as careful of the
interests of the government az though
they were his own. Mr.. DevereuX re-
turns to Wilmington tomorrow
Captain Devereux is from Charleston.
but We also claim him in Wilmington. as
he is so often with us. He is now at The
Orton. The Messenger heartily concurs
in what The Telegram a of Captain
Devereux. There is 10 officer in Uncle
SANS service who is more jealous and
efficient in the discharge of his duties
and who has gained more golden opinions
than this same Captain Dever4ux.

A NARROW ESCAPE.
ing Candle in the Second Story of Messrs.
Holmes & Waters Grocery Store-What
Might Have Been

Mig Have Been
A disastrous fire in the business por-
ton Of the city was narrowly averted
last night. y difference in time of
about sixty minutes would have been
sufficient, under the circumstances, for
the grocery establishment Of Messrs.
Holmes & Waters, on Front street,
between Princess and Market, to burst
forth in flames, had not fate decreed
otherwise.
LAS night Mr.. Robert G.. Rankin, Jr.,
shipping clerk at the establishment of
Messrs. Holmes & Waters, had occa-
sion to return to the store to obtain
several letters. After entering he
noticed the dim glare of a light in the
second story, M thinking that bur-
glars Were at work he quietly left the
store and made known his suspicious
to Policeman w D. George, who was
at the time patrolIng his beat. Togeth
er, Policeman George and Mr.. Rankin
returnde tothe store, and after locking
the front door, quietly proceeded to the
second floor. When they arrived there
they discovered a lighted piece Of
candle on a pine box on the floor
The candle was only abou. an inch
long and was fast being consumed by
the flame, which would have been the
means of a most disastrous fire had
it not been discovered in time. The
candle was evidently left burning by
some employe who visited the second
floor late in the afternoon, just prev
ious to closing time.
Policeman George, after blowing he
light out, made a thorough search and
inspection of the entire store, but dis
covered no trace of burglars or Of any
thing wrong.
In the vicinity where the candle was
found burning were straw baskets,
pine boxes. barrels, and other articles,
of an ~inflammable nature.

New York, February 16.-The course
OF today's cCtltOn market favored the
bear element, although trading was
scattered and fer the most part cor
Quoted on a small scale. Opening
steady, with the neal months unchang-
ed to 1 point lower and the more re-
mote positions 2 to 4 points lower, the
market ruled irregular, with the ten
dency steadily downward. The close
was steady at a net loss of 4 to 6
points. Although Liverpool made a
favorable response to our Improvement
late yesterday at the start, subsequent
cables told of less stability abroad,
which was attributed by private ad-
vices to manipulation at that point.
The early selling movement was led
by a prominent bear trader, with Liv-
erpool a good second. News from the
south was rather scarce, owing to an
almost complete Gripping of the wire
service. The dispatches received were
too conflicting to rave decided bearing
on either side. The fact that port re-
ceipts continued fully up to the recent
high average, despite predictions for a
marked falling off made last week,
had comparatively little influence as
export ~clearances show a tendency to
even exceed the movement from the
interior.

New York, February 16.-Business on

hampertd 10y the fact that Geographic
communication with the south was
almost entirely suspended. The mar
ket was dull and prices We're lower.
Liverpool advanced 1k-64d to 2-64d,
but this report was not regarded as
satisfactory and our market opened
from l to 4 pOiIts lower. After the OPP
ening, prices generally sought the level
Of the lowest opening figures and
practically remained there all day.
Receipts Of course were very heavy

concerning the appalling disaster at
Havana greatly unsettled the stock
market and did cotton no good. We
