SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. g5.-The Bald

principal landmarks of San Francisco,

theatre, the fashionable amusement
place of this city, was totally destroyed
with the rest of the building and the
'Secret Service" company lost all its
paraphernalia and accoutrements. The
flames were confined to the Baldwin
structure, but much adjoining property
was seriously damaged by water and
smoke.
Rumors Of Large Loss of Life.
There were upward of 800 guests in
the hotel when the fire was discovered

was apprised Of the danger within 10
minutes after the fire broke out, but
rumors are rife that many of those in
the east wing, where the flames were
discovered, were cut off from escape
and lost. How true these rumors. are

The Democratic papers down in tie

We have taken occasion heretofore
to correct this statement so far as it
relates to Judge Jackson, but for some
reason or other the Republican papers
that delight in the filth of political
lying persist in repeating the charge.
AS soon as Judge Jackson was nom
mated for Congress he resigned from
the bench, as the files of the lnteilI-
gencer and Journal, the two papers
that created and circulated the false.
hood, will show. Judge Harvey, not
Hervey, did not resign, and he was the
subject of criticism by the Republican
press on that account, but the Demo-
cratic papers did not excuse what dp-
peared to them to be violation of the
proprieties on that account. Jadge
Jackson is entitled to fair treatment,
and it is all he expects.

The interesting and important ruinOr
is in circulation that the foreign syndi-
cate, whose American headquarters are
in Chicago, organized for the
purpose of purchasing control of all
the American manufacturers of liz
plate, has the four local mills, mali
ufacturing that class of goods, are
down on the list. These mills are:
The La Belle, the Aetna STANDARD, the
Laughlin and the Whitaker.
The matter was mentioned to a
stakeholder in one of these mills yes
terday, when he said that the proposed
deal was actually in contemplation aid
that propositions would soon be laid
before the stockholders and directors
of the four enterprises named. 1T car
of these plants, at least so far as the
tin manufacturing enterprise was con-
cerned, would be removed from Wheel
ing, and he respectfully doubted If it
would be a good thing for the COM
munity to have this occur, in the light
of our past experience with trusts of
this nature, the United States Glass
Company being a case in point.
An attempt was made to get definite
details about the matter, but it was no.
successful, as those having access &c
exact facts could not be found. There
was unearthed, however, general eN-
pectation that such an offer as is here
outlined will be made to local manu-
facturers at an early date, for sUbmIs-
sion to all parties in interest.

Two or three times within the last

ton has been created among the faith
full workers for the local end of the
g. O. p. by the report that "the Doodle"
had arrived
These reports were always denounc-
ed by the local bosses, and the crowd
was stood off, but yesterday the story
got out that the money had really ar
rived in town, and was in the hands
of the dispensers of good things ct the
Court House, and as result there
were good many callers at the public
building and quite number of confer
ences in dark corners, on stair-ways
and in offices. A representative for
the Register attempted to ascertain
the facts in the case, but the results
were not definite or satisfactory. It
was stated, however, by one gentle
man, that not only had the stuff
put in an appearance, but that good
proportion of it had been distributed
among trusty lieutenants in the various
districts, and that the small fry would
have the dough parcelled out to
them in assorted patches, according to
the merits of the individuals and the
necessities of the case. If this appar-
emily authentic report is all right, re-
suits will be apparent in day or two
in the shape of tanked patriots, new
pairs of trousers, and a general in
crease in the visible supply of small
bills and silver dollars, while the Sec
