Second South were then in mass o
flames.
l. 1t seemed that fully ten minutes
lapsed before the fire department gOt
in its work, but really il was not hall
that time in getting two lines of hose
playing at the rear and three lines al
the front. besides one line from tbs
roof of the one-story shacks on the
east. After about five minutes the fire
was under control, and in twenty min
utes more there was not a sign OF blaze
anywhere.
When the firemen arrived on the
! scene the flames were shooting to a
! great height both at the front and from
/ the rear of the doomed buildings. Just
as the water was turned on the heat
from the flames was felt clear across
the street. What made the situation ap-
pear all the more serious was the
tongues of flame licking the corners of
the Kenyon hotel annex, both front
and rear, but the element of destruc-
ton was not permitted to form an al
lance with the big building on the
west Fortunately a thick brick wall in
tervened. and the hotel suffered not
cents worth of damage.
In the early stages of the fire the
Kenyon hotel guests received a scare
that completely unnerved them. One of
ridors and the main stairway into the
rotunda yelling fire with all his
might One of the women guests took
up the cry, and thus added to the ter
ror of the situation. Neither knew just
where the fire was, and as far as their
knowledge went it might have been
in the other block
But the scare was started, and the
guests came pouring out Of their rooms
without any other formality than to
gather up their hand baggage and
make for the main exits. The clerk had
in the meantime learned the cause of
the alarm and promptly set to work
to calm the frightened guests by assur-
ing them that there was not the slight
est danger. The men were Gained at
once on learning that the hotel was not
on fire, and soon the fair sex breathed
easier. When the humorous side of the
dilemma dawned on the women guests.
some of them attired in wrappers, and
children made ready for a nights
slumber, they returned to their rooms
for repose.
Just how the fire started is mys-
terry. 1t is known that the blaze was
discovered at the rear Of the cigar store
by the attaches of the cafe, who de-
clare that either an incendiary, posi- |
bly, some hanger-on of the circus, who
had plumber in view, set off the blaze !
or that the careless dropping of a |
smokers stump or a match into the !
rubbish did the business.

Alexander II. Tarbet returned yester-
day from a ten days trip to eastern
cities on a combination of business and
pleasure. In the latter category may
be classed his stay in Indianapolis as
member of the committee which no
titled Mr.. Bryan of his nomination to
The presidency by the Kansas CITY
convention. Mr.. Tarbet said that from
the general appearance of Indianapo-
us one might have thought Mr.. BRYAN
was the only presidential candidate
Flags and bunting were everywhere
displayed and the people used all pos
slDle efforts to entertain their guests
ihere was only one thing that marred
the beauty of the whole This was the
placing of portraits of Mckinley in the
windows of the court house by the Re
publican element in control. The form
of decoration adopted by this outfit
was condemned by thinking men of all
parties. 1t really had the effect. Mr.
Tarbet thinks. of increasing -Bryan's
popularity People who were luke
warm before became so incensed over
II that they are now out with their
coats off for the Democratic nominee.
Yes, l heard a good deal Of politics
talked on the trains and elsewhere
huiILS my Trip, SAID Mr.. Iarbet. In
New York I found Tammany at work
for Bryan tooth and nail. AT the
Democratic club. which was founded bv
Mr.. Croker, l was led to believe that
the party was united in New York
this year
They all seemed to think BRYAN viii
be elected. While ii is still too early
10 make an accurate estimate on New
York l think il can at least be classed
as doubtful state. Personally [ feel
confident from what l have heard that
Mr. Bryan viii be elected 1t is my
candid judgment that he will carry
Indiana and Illinois as well as Mary
land, Kentucky West Virginia, Della
ware and other states that were car
ried by Mckinley in 1885,
Aside from the heat which he de-
scribed as being intense in New York

his ten days trip immensely.

The Feast of the Assumption occurred
on Wednesday. August Is. and was OBJ
served as usual by the Catholic church
in Salt Lake as elsewhere. The Blessed
Virgin is supposed to have lived twenty
five years after the death of her Divine
Son. During that time she visited the
spots made sacred by His life At
Marys death the apostles were gath
cred about her with lights burning.
They watcheduntil the third day And
toward. nightfall on the third day Jesus
came down with hosts Of saints and
angels and they ranged themselves be-
fore Mary's couch" saws a writer in
Ave Maria. Sweet hymns were heard
at intervals till the middle of the night.
And then Jesus called her softly twice
that she should come to Him. and she
answered that she was ready ioyfully
10 yield the spirit And thus her spirit
quilted the body and flew into the arms
Of herASon. And she neither suffered
pain nor her body corruption.

was connected robbed the Central Pa

through the latter road the people of

Huntington, who, now that he is dead,
will have few poets and writer's to i'm

WE AND TURKEY.

( WASHINGTON, May 13-Amer-
lean interests in Turkey may
be turned over to the care of
the German Government if the
not improbable break in the
relations of this country and
the Porte occurs. Still it can
not be said that the State De-
partment has made a decision
,, on this subject, and it would
not admit the fact officially if
it had. It was learned to-day
that consideration has been
given to the question of the
probable effect on American
missionary interests in the
Sultan's possessions in case of
withdrawal of our diplomat
ic representation at CONSTANT
nople. The Government is
making every preparation to
meet this contingency, which
may be the next step of the
United States in the current
negotiations, and to that end
it has consulted men of promi-
hence who are familiar with
conditions in European and
Asiatic waters.
The fullest consideration has
been given by the Government
to the contention that a sever
ance of diplomatic relations
would leave the American mis-
sionaries in a position of help
lessness that might result in a
massacre. This view has been
urged on the State Department
by clergymen in the United
States who have resided in
Turkey. Consultation with
other men equally familiar
with the matter has developed
a decided difference of opinion
from the assertions of those
first mentioned. These others
have assured the State De-
partment that with the care of
American interests intrusted
in some strong European pow
er, the missionaries from the
United States, and their prop
erty would be safer than they
now are with an American
mission at Constantinople.
This view apparently meets
with the approval of the De-
partment, whose attitude re-
moves the chance that the in
tention to sever diplomatic re-
iations would not be carried in
to effect in the event Of failure
to secure a satisfactory adjust
ment of the Armenian indem-
nifty claim, on account of the
fear that the missionaries from
the United States would suf-
fer.
It is recognized that Ger
many would guard our inter
ests more jealousy than her
own, and the slightest infring-
ment on American rights
would incur the displeasure of
the Emperor and would be ia
tai to Turkey.

Gran Shooters Flee to the Woods.

One Of the mounted officers Of the Ana
costa police station, while on some bust
ness at st. Elizabeths Asylum yesterday
morning about 10 o'clock, concluded to see
what was occurring in the vicinity of the
camp where the colored laborers working
on the steam railroad switch are located, on
the lower grounds near the river. The Of
ficer rode along to a convenient point from
which he could obtain view of the scene,
and, it is alleged, large number Of
the colored laborers deeply interested in a
game Of crap. Fearing no interruption, the
men were engrossed in the throwing of the
bones. One of them suddenly spied the
policeman, and though all of the laborers
are strangers here, it is said, having come
from other cities, they were well aware that
he was an officer of the law.
A stampede followed the discovery. The
implements of the game were forgotten in
the effort to escape and in body the crap
shooters headed for the river shore. On ar
irving there water did not deter them in
their flight for they waded out into the
deep water and to the large stone wall run
ming by the asylum wharf, gained the top
and then ran by this route to the thick por-
ton of Pencote woods, where they scattered
and sought refuge from pursuit.
1t Is asserted that some of the laborers
make the game of crap their popular di-
version on the grounds, and it is believed
steps will be taken to break up the prac-
tice
