SCENES IN THE STUDY.
NJ. Faure Says Farewell TO His Wife,
Daughters and Friends.

PARIS, Feb. 16.-Nothing could have
given the idea of approaching death in the
Elysee tonight. Up till the very last NJ.
Faure indulged in his customary habits Of
work and even in his equestrian rides. He
ate we'll and slept regularly. Nevertheless,
several times recently he had been heard to
exclaim. How weak my legs are and Il
can scarcely stand' or to make some such
remark. He left his study about the usual
hour, at o'clock last evening wednesday,,
telling NJ. Montjarret, chief of his stables,
that he would ride on horseback from Z to
1870 of the following morning Thursday
He then retired to his private apartments
dned with his family, went to bed at 10
o'clock, got up this morning at 6, and in
formed his valet that he would not ride NJ
lie Gall, his secretary, on learning of this
hurried TO the President, whom he found in
his dressing room about 6:z5 a. m. NJ
Faure said; II do not feel i'll, but 1 prefer
to abstain from fatiguing exercises to-day"
Otherwise the President worked as usual
and read the official documents and dis
patches, with the newspapers, as was his
cutsom, in order to prepare himself to pre-
side at the council, which assembled at 8
a. m. NJ. Faure presided with his usual

VIEWS OF NJ. DE BLOwITZ.
Trouble May BE Averted if n New
President Is Promptly Chosen.

President Is Promptly Chosen.
LONDON, Feb 16.-M De Blowitz, the
Paris correspondent of the Times says: 1T
may be affirmed that M. Faure has been
overwhelmed by work and conceptions be-
yond his mental powers. He ascended so
unexpectedly to the highest position that
he had daily to fight against the made
quacy of his early incomplete education. 1t
may be said far as public behavior is
concerned, that he committed no conspicu-
Gus failures, but, unfortunately, he was
chiefly actuated by the lmperious preoccu-
patton of mSiptaining himself in power,
thus neglecting the highest interests Of
state in his anxiety to displease nobody.
Hence the dangerous state into which the
country is plunged deprived of the supreme
will so necessary in land Nnere Caesarism
is the peoples political creed. Hence, also,
the probability that if Congress can be or
ganized as quickly as possible and the dis
turbing action Of the Patrie Francaise pre-
vented in time, NJ. Faure's disappearance
will not produce so dangerous trouble.
The great question is whether General Eur
linden will try to change the situation in
order to avenge the army. General Mercier
and M. Meliner are both mentioned as pos
sible candidates for the presidency"
The Paris correspondent of the Daily
Chronicle says: The question is asked
whether certain events that have been
whispered in hostile circles may not have
FASTENED his death. know personally that,
apart from the well-known attacks arising
from his family antecedents, other unjust
scandals were preparing to overwhelm him.
At this solemn moment l need not pursue
this inquiry, and I hopefully dismiss all ru-
mors of foul play"
The Paris correspondent of the Daily
News expresses the opinion that the Drey-
fus affair hastened NJ Faure's end. Gen.
AIercier had refused to play the role Of
scapegoat by leaving the country" says the
correspondent, ''and had determined to re-
main in France and to bring down all his
colleagues with him if the crash came. NJ
Faure saw the abyss yawning before him
and the signs of the coming presidential
campaign against him. He had long been
menaced by revelations of family secrets
and by the anti-Dreyfusites and he was ap-
prehensive of the effect of these things on
the courts of Europe

NEARLY 100000 LOSS
FIRE DESTROYS THREE SIX-STORY
STRUCTURES AT PHILADELPHIA.
John WanamaISer, Warner G. Co. and
the Emerson Shoe Company
the Greatest Sufferers.

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 16.-Fire tonight
destroyed three six-story business buildings
on Market street, below Thirteenth and
number Of smaller structures in the rear,
entailing an aggregate loss little short Of
100000. The locality Of the fire was only
few yards from Wanamal1er's big depart
ment store, but fortunately the only damage
it suffered was a trifling one from water.
The fire started in the Market-street Laun-
dry, operated by Jcl.n Wanamaker at No.
1926 Market street, and spread rapidly to
the buildings adjoining--No. 1924 occupied
on the first and second floors by the Emer-
son Shoe Company and Dr. Wilson's dental
parlors, the other floors being vacant, and
No. 1928 occupied by William r. Warner e
Co.. wholesale druggists. A general alarm
was sounded, but the flames spread with
ungovernablc rapidity. A stiff wind from
the north carried the blaze back to Ludlow
street, small thoroughfare below Market
street, and several small buildings occupied
as shops were consumed. Then the flames
leaped across to the rectory of st. Johns
Catholic Church, directly opposite Wana-
makers, on Thirteenth street This, too,
was destroyed, and only the most strenuous
efforts of the department saved the church
itself
The fire had been burning more than an
hour when the towering west wall of
Warmers building fell, carrying with it the
rear ends of Nos. 1890, 1892, 1884 and 1896
Market street, occupied, respectively, by
Fernberger Bros wholesale whisky dealers;
Charles Mullin, shoes; Sternberg & Co.,
furnishers; LOCUS. hat store, and o. K Hall,
clothing store. These ruins soon burst into
flames, but the fire here was soon extin-
guished. After a hard struggle, lasting un-
til midnight, the fire was got under control.
The heaviest losers are John Wanamaker,
Warner & Co. and the Emerson Shoe Com
pany, estimated at about 100000 each and
covered by insurance The fire is said to
have originated from a live electric wire,
which came in contact with Woodwork

porter for the Associated Press carried to
NJ. Thiebaut. the French charge in the alb
senee of NJ. Cambon, the news Of President
Faure's death, which was the first informa-
ton he had received Of It. NJ Thiebaut was
greatly surprised and grieved at the news.
NJ. Faure he said, was a self-made man,
who had risen from the common people to
the high position he occupied at the time
of his death. After being well educated he
started into business in a subordinate posi-
ton and gradually worked his way until he
amassed considerable money. He spoke En-
glish fiuently. The Constitution of France
provides that upon the death Of the chief
executive a successor shall be chosen i'm
mediately, and within few days a joint
meeting of both branches Of the French
Legislature will be held at Versailles for
that purpose
