Probably Caused by Lighted Cigar
cite Stump.
Shortly before 10 O'Clock last night
an alarm from box 1872, located on
Grand avenue, west of Jefferson street
called the fire department to the tene-
ment house at 2 Lyon street. A small
blaze in the lower apartments, occu-
pied by Jacob Giickstein, was extin-
guished with chemicals, and the dam
age was about $25.
The family had been sitting in the
front room, but were at supper when
the blaze was discovered. Mr.. Click
stein had occasion to visit the room at
the time, and as he pushed open the
door he saw the room in flames. He
threw open the windows, and some one
Immediately rang the alarm from the
keyless box. The origin of the fire Is
thought to have been from lighted
cigarette or cigar stump.
The prompt action of the department
undoubtedly prevented a serious con-
fiagration as the house Is three-story
double tenement and lily provided with
exits In case of fire.

ILLINOIS FASTEST OF BATTLEsHIPS.
Sig Sea Fighter Makes Record of 1871
Knots on Her Trial.

Gig Sea Fighter Makes o Record of 1871
Knots on Her Trial.
Boston, Mass.-When the battleship
Illinois Is turned over to the United
States there will be added to the list
of heavy fighting ships in the Navy the
fastest craft Of her class In the world.
The big warship, over the Cape Ann
course, had her official trial and her
average speed for the four hours Of
steady steaming under forced draught
was 1871 knots per hour. This breaks
the record of 17.01 established by her
sister ship, the Alabama, and again
it eclipses the most recent record of
17.12 made by the Wisconsin. on the
Pacific, a vessel of the same type, de-
sign and dimensions.
Not only did the Illinois demonstrate
that she was faster than any warship
of her class. but she proved her ability
to turn upon an enemy with extraord-
mary quickness by describing a COM
plete circle within 800 yards, or little
more than twice her length, in three
minutes and ten seconds while plough
ing through the sea at full speed.
Admiral Sampson, who was
aboard unofficially, and Rear-Admiral
Evans, who acted as President of the
Trial Board, as we'll as the other naval
officers who participated in the trial,
spoke of the ship in the highest terms.

DYNAMITE SKATERS TWO TRAINS
Explosive Discharged by Collision, and
Shock Felt Thirty Miles Away.

Binghamton. N. Y.-The explosion
Of car of d, Mantle at Vestal, ten
miles west of here, resulted in the
death of seven men. The dead are:
J. NJ. Kelly. Theodore Polhamus, FL
mer' Polhamus, Henry Polhamus,
Fred Wetherbee, Of Elmira; William
Meddick and Sullivan. all members Of
the crew Of the wild cat" train that
struck the dynamite car.
The accident was the result Of run
ming "wild cat" freight ahead Of
regular freight. The "wild cat" had
stopped in Vestal for water and was
standing on the west bound track
without the precaution Of a fagman
at the rear Of the train.
The regular freight, a double head
er, came up at fast rate and crashed
into the caboose of the first train. The
second car from the caboose Of the
first train was loaded with dynamite,
and The force Of the collision explod-
ed 1t. .
Both engines Of the rear freight
were blown to atoms, and pieces Of
iron were thrown across the Susque-
hama River. Windows were broken
thirty miles away. The explosion
caused a fire at once, and soon both
trains were in flames. The little town
of Vestal, where the wreck occurred.
is a scene of ruin. There is scarcely
a whole pane Of glass in the place, and
houses were Jared badly.

McCune and nine others went down
shaft No. 2. Just before they were
lowered the bell was rung from the
foot of the shaft. The cage was al
ready down, and it was brought up
with Settler in it.
The rescuing party then went down.
Nothing was heard of them, and in an
hour another rescuing force, led by
James Bailey and William Williams,
fire bosses, were let down the shaft.
They had groped their way about 200
feet when two explosions were heard
in rapid succession. The shaft lamps
in the hands Of Bailey and Williams
were blown fifty feet away, and they
themselves were thrown violently to
the ground. They arose to their feet
and called for their comrades, but
there was no answer. Both men hur-
ried back to the shaft and were drawn
up in the cage.
The party that went in later was
composed of Mine Inspector Bernard
Callahan, the general superintendent,
John Reese, and William McFee, Dan
iel Mccullough and Peter McLindon,
tire bosses, and Robert Mckinney, pit
boss.
The rescue party had been in the
mine about an hour when the muf1ed
report of another explosion was heard
Issuing from the depths Of the shaft,
and rush for the cage was made by
the men above, who thought that
these rescuers had met the fate Of
those who had gone before. A dozen
men volunteered to 60 down and try
to rescue the party, but their services
were not needed, as the signal to hoist
the cage was given from the bottom,
and when it reached the top three un-
conscious forms were found lying on
it. This last explosion in the minds of
many seemed to settle the fate Of the
entombed men, and all hope Of get
ting any of them out alive has been
abandoned.
Seven years ago there was another
disastrous explosion at Port Royal
and the mine caught fire.. 1t was
necessary to fill 1t with water to finally
quench the flames. To do this q hole
was drilled from the bed Of the river.
This Is now closed only with plug,
which was arranged for such an emer.
gency as the present, and to drown
out the fire all that was necessary
was to take out the plug and the
water Of the Youghiogheny rushed in.

GRAFTON of the suggestion Of it, will
say now, once for all, expressing q
long settled conviction, that not only
am not and will not be a candidate for
a third term, but would not accept O

my only ambition is to serve

There was no idea among those who
waited Upon members Of the Cabinet,
after they had gathered at the White
House on the previous evening, and
who questioned the group of officials,
that they protected 80 interesting a
secret. Each member Of the Cabinet
calmly answered when the business
of the meeting was inquired about
that the visit was strictly social"

clans attending Mrs. Mckinley, that

The President had hoped to be able
to let the talk pass unnoticed, as the

announcement made By Senator De-
pew Of the probability that President
Mckinley would be again elected
President vas rude Listurber Of the
train of thought in which tho Presi-

to disavow the assertion then. Eut
when General Grosvenor, an intimate
friend of tie President, and some
times referred to as his "moutnpiece,
not only declared that the President
would be again nominated. but argued
that the ulwritten law cgainst third
term had no force or support in the
public mind, the President decided
tlat he could not, with care f-r his
party or himself, longer maintain
silence.
Aside from the aversion with which
the President regards occupation of
the Office for q third term or political
grounds, he has strong inclination
to devote his time after his present
tern Of Office to personal affairs that
have secured only his divided atten-
ton while he has been Preslder::, and

Paris, France.-The death in prison
of Mime. Monnier. q wealthy but mis-
erly landowner in the neighborhood of
Poitiers, forms the climax in a drama
the pathos and horror Of which has
been the sensation of the week in
Paris.
The story has it's beginning in the
romantic attachment of her daughter
Blanche for a lawyer without means
twenty-five years ago. At that time
Mile. Blanche was a beautiful tall
brunette, with a wealth Of hair and
big, brilliant eyes. She was belle
in the neighborhood of Poitiers, and
was sought by more than one. But
her heart was true to the man Of her
choice.
The mother, however. had more am.
bilious plans for her beautiful child.
At first she argued with her. then
pleaded, and found both of no avail.
Finally she determined that the girl
should not marry the pennlless law.
yer under any circumstances. She
talked the matter over with her son.
who was at one time Sub-Prefect Of
the Department Of Vienna, and to.
gether they determined upon a plan
which they felt would prevent the
marriage. One night the girl was
locked in room in the house. The
mother believed that in time the girl
would relent and agree to do as she
was bidden. But despite threats and
Imprisonment the young woman clung
to her love.
Time passed and Mile Blanche was
no longer young. The lawyer died in
1885. During all that time the girl
was confined In the lonely room, fed
with scraps from the mothers table
when she received food at all. Her
only companions were the rats that
gathered to eat the hard crusts that
she threw upon the floor. Not ray
Of light penetrated her dungeon, and
what she suffered can only be sur
missed. When she was found her rea-
son was partially gone, and little hope
was expressed for her recovery.
The police were anonymously noti-
fed that Mile. Blanche Monnier was
being detained in a room in the moth.
er's house. They acted promptly on
the information, and entering Nine.
Monniers house found the daughter
lying on bare mattress in total dark
ness. She was naked and emaciated.
and was taken to O hospital. It was
thought that she would die, but she is
now improving and has a chance for
recovery.
The mother and son were: arrested.
The son claimed that he acted in a
spirit of filial piety, and threw the re-
sponsibllity on his mother.
Two days later Nine. Monnier
died in prison of heart disease. At
the Judges examination the gravity Of
her crime was brought home to her.
She became i'll, and her sudden death
followed in theinfrmary Of the prison.
