WIPED OUT BY FIRE.
The Eatlre Business and Most Of the Resi-
dence Section of the Town Of vir.-
gInia, MIMI, Burned.


Duluth, Mimi, June S.-The entire
business and most Of the residence
section Of the town of Virginia, on
the Mesaba Iron Range, was wiped
out of existence yesterday about the
noon hour, and it only took 60 min
utes to do it. In that time fully 1875
buildings were reduced to ashes.
Telegraphic communications were
cut off very soon after the first news
of the fire came and was not re-
sumed until the evening. The news
last night indicated that it was a
yeritable cyclone of fire. The entire
country around is parched and ready
to burn. The flames broke out at
the Moon and Kerr mill, on the shore
of Silver lake, southwest of the
town. The plant consists of number
of large buildings beside the mill and
it was among these that the fire
started. The main business section of
the city is about five blocks from the
mill and over this intervening terri
tory the flames spread fiercely, car
ried directly to the business build
ings by a fierce southwest wind.
Within an hour it had carried every.
thing between the mill and the rail-
road station, eight blocks away, and
left not a business house, hotel or
store standing in the town. The
only remaining houses left are one
hospital, one schoolhouse, the Iron
Range depot and small sawmill.
Approximate loss, 100000.

steamship La Lorraine, which arrived
this morning, experienced a hard time

forced to stop owing to the disarrange-
ment of her machinery. M. Vallin, the
chief engineer, says that on Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday the vessel was
forced to stop at different times, each
of the two engines, in order to make
repairs to the condenser tubes. The
tubes began to leak and the engine
room officials were forced to slow down,
first one engine and then the other, to
stop the leakage. Everything was sat
isfactory from Wednesday until Friday
evening, when it was found necessary
to stop the port engine. 1t was found

BIG FIRE IN MYSTIC.
The Opera House Destroyed-ThS Los.
About 100000,

Mystic, Nov. 25.-Fire early this
morning destroyed the Mystic opera
mousse, ana for a time threatened to
wipe out all the buildings in the block.
ON account Of poor water pressure. the
local fire department was unable to get
stream above the second story. and
were obliged to send to Stonington for
help. When an engine and fifty men
from that place arrived, their efforts
had to be directed to saving the adta-
cent buildings the opera house being
then completely in the power of the
flames. The loss is about $4,000. The
opera house was rebuilt in 1893 ait d
cost of $17,000 and with it's furnishings
was valued at $4,000, most of which is
covered by insurance. The building
was owned by George e. Tripp.
Five stores occupied the first floor OF
the structure and their owners, George
w. Tingley, billiards and pool room),
Charles l.. Heine, (boots and shoes),
Horace M. Fitch, (wall papers), Cyrus
S. Mitchell, Gewelry), and Nathan B.
Hill, (paints and oils), are heavy losers.
The origin of the blaze is uncertain.
1t started apparently in the lamp room
of the opera house, but whether it was
Intentionally set or was due to spon-
taneous combustion is unknown. This
Is the third serious fire that has oc-
CURED in the building since it was
originally built, about ten years ago.
During the fire, Charles Fl. Foley, a
fireman of Mystic, got a finger jamrned
in hose reel, and it was found neceS-
eary to amputate the member.

.F,AVORABLE TO SETTLEMENT.
Information ON Received In Last Few Days
at Wash i'm e ton.

Washington, Nov. 25.-Such informa-
tion as has come to the state depart
ment in the last few days is said to
indicate a more favorab BILE condition Of
affairs respecting the chances foa sat
isfactory understanding among the
ministers of the powers than during
the early part of last week, when a.
deadlock seemed imminent. Just what
is the nature of this information is not
stated, but probably it came as the re-
suit of Secretary Hays latest note to
the powers setting out afresh the OBJ
ject of the United States government
as to China. This note contained the
instructions that have been sent to
Minister Conger and are believed to be
of such a nature as to constitute an
appeal from the extreme course sug-
gested by some of the powers as to the
treatment of the Chinese government
on some of the matters upon which the
ministers have been unable to agree.
Nothing has come from Mr.. Conger
during the past forty-eight hours.
