 A fire occurred at the residence of Prof. Dimmick about 8 o'clock Tuesday night. Mrs. Dimmick had entered closet on the second floor in which clothing was kept with a lighted candle, and it is supposed some article came in contact with the blaze, as shortly afterward smoke and flames were discovered issuing from the closet. A garden hose was turned on the flames, and before the arrival of the hose com panes the fire was under control. The hose companies turned two streams of water into the upper floor, and about everything in the house was deluged. The loss by fire was confined to the clothing in the closet. The damage to the house and furniture by water is estimated at $600 The residence is owned by J. A. Lamport, and there was no insurance.

THE PROPOSED COAL COMBINE
An Effort Being Made to Unite All Pro-
ducing Coal Mines in the Pitts
burgh District.

PITTSBURGH, Pa, March 23.-An eff
fort which is supposed to be backed by
eastern capitalists is being made to
unite all the production coal mines in
the Pittsburgh district. Several at
tempts within the last two years have
been made to bring about combina-
tion of the operators, but those inter
ested have never been able to get all
the operators to agree to any one
plan.
The Morgan syndicate is supposed to
be back of the present scheme. Agents
have been in the district for some time
and it was stated Wednesday that
every operator had been approached
and asked to give an option on his
mines and property. 1t was proposed
to buy the mines outright, paying cash
on closing the deal or to give the oper-
ators stock in the new concern. The
new trust, should it be formed, will be
capitalized at about $25, 600, 900.

ton for a Last Chance.

MANILA, March 23.-While apparent
" inactive since Sunday, really the op-
posite has been the case with the
American forces.
A reorganization, entailing many
changes, has been in progress since
the abandonment of the flying column.
Gen. Wheaton's and Gen. Halls bri-
gades have not been assigned, but the
Oregon regiment, the Minnesota regi-
ment and the 22d regiment have been
meta, at the water front, in readiness
for immediate transportation when
the plans of the military leaders have
been formulated.
Our troops are entrenched and the
situation S practically unchanged.
The enemy has refrained from making
any attacks recently and it would cp-
pear that the rebels are saving their
ammunition for a decisive movement.
According to a prisoner captured by
our troops Aguinaldo has announced
that he will personally conduct the re-
serves at MalolOs and march into Ma
Mia within 20 days, unless the Ameri-
cans withdraw in the meantime. The
concentration of rebel forces in the
vicinity of MalabOn gives color to the
statement of the prisoner.
Advices from Cebu by a coasting
steamer say everything is quiet there.

from New York on February 3, has ar
