dering pile by fire this morning. 1t was
that known as the "Platers Building,
which back in the early 70's was
known as tie bending mill.
About o'clock this morning fireman
William \. Perry, hearing an explosion
rushed out of the steam engineering
building nearby. and saw smoke rolling
from out the platers building. He i'm
mediatelv sounded an alarm. which was
followed 10 minutes later by second

In the meantime. however, the navy
yard contingent had by no means been
idle. The bugle sent the fire cali
echong through the great yard. and In
answer thereto She marine battalion
stationed at the barracks and sailors
from the Wabash and the Machias

The building is a two and one-nHff
story wooden structure. $50 feet long
and 20 feet wide, with an annex lOOX5O
and situated near the old shipbulld-
ings. The fire was stubborn one at
first. and then threatened to spread 10
adjoining structures In fact several
of them caught fire. but through ener-
getic work the flames were confined 10
the original building.
This. as has been stated, was totally
destroyed anu the valuable machinery
which il contained is practically
ruined. The ioss is estimated at be-
tween $4,000 and 100000. No insurance
was carried either on the burned
structure or on the machinery. so that
the loss will be a total loss.

During the progress OF the blaze an
immense cloud of black smoke settled

WANTS A RECEIVER.
C. H. SIocum Claims a Partnership
With George \. Daniels.

Daniels Refused 10 Sign.

Before Justice Stiness in the appellate
division of the supreme court was heard
today the petition of CHI Slocum for
the appointment of receiver of the CO.

Daniels denies the existence OF any CO.

The latter was formerly in the busl-
ness of manufacturing spring beds on
Peck street and the business Slocum
claims was worth $4,000. He went to
Daniels store one day in the first part
of the present year and jokingly re-
marked that the two businesses that of
spring Det making ana furniture would
go well together. To his surprise he
says Daniels accepted him at once as
a full partner in the concern. There
we're no articles OF copartnership drawn
up until about six weeks ago, when
Mr.. Slocum had papers prepared by
his attorney, which Daniels refused to
sign.
While in the store of Mr.. Daniels Slo-
cum said he had charge of the mattress
department, and on cross examination
he said he admitted Daniels told him
he had $4,000 worth of goods out on
leases and witness thought stock In
store was worth about $4,000 This was
at the time Slocum claims the copart-
nership was begun. lie did not think Il
strange he should be given half-in-
tereSt in busines that on his own
showing was worth 500 900 I'm return FOR
a business worth only $4,000 or So Mr..
Slocum said he had gone to Congdon &
