Houston, Tex, Oct. 21.-At $3.50 a.
m. Saturday fire broke out in the
rear portion of the Hutchins house,
one Of the leading hotels in Houston.
The flames spread rapidly to all
parts of the upper stories of the
building, which is a four-story struc-
ture covering more than block. The
guests, of whom the hotel was full,
were aroused by the night Office
force, and most of them escaped. In
fact, only one fatality is SO far
known to have resulted from the
fire. This was a person who was
heard to cry for help, and the fire.
men, looking in the direction from
which the sound came, saw man
believed to be a guest of the hotel,
but whose identity is not known,
sink back into the flames.
The building is the property of
Neuhans Bros. & Kessler, of Schu-
lenberg, Tex, and is valued at about
$125,0OO. The equipment also be-
longs to the above firm. and is
probably valued at $4,000. Other
losses it is believed will run the
loss to about $25O,O0O. Messrs. I. j.
and j. T. Boyle are the proprietors
of the hotel, and within the past few
months $4,000 has been expended in
remodeling and repairing the build
ing.
The fire was confined to the hotel
building, but all inside of that struc.
ture was burned.
The dead man has not yet been
| identified.

WHICH EXPLAIN THEMSELVES.
LETTER

Savannah. Ga. May 4. 19O1.-Dear Sir:
like those lots on Henry street you in
tend to sell at auction on the 21st and
want to buy one and build house there,
but my wife doesn't want me to get 1t
because she has been told of so many
objections to the place. Some people
have been telling her that you youldn t
want 10 sell the lots II you really thought
they would go up in price any time soon,
and that they are too far out of town
anyhow, and that Collinsvllle is low and
sickly, and that the streets are not paved
and the drainage is poor; that the street
car service is bad on account of having to
be bothered with transferring at Gwin-
nett street. and. that the Bilbo canal
makes diving out there disagreeable. !
want to please my wife In selecting a
place for a home, and yet, as I. myself,
am much pleased with your lots, l want
you to help me convince her they are
the best we can get for the price we are
able to pay. Yours truly,
(Signed.)

Georgia Team Not Disconnected by
Comments About Them.
The following from the New York Her
aid of May will both interest and amuse
the Savannah members of the Georgia
team that shot at Sea Girt in 1899:
The persistent and contemptuous re-
fusal of the Georgia military authorities
to enter another team for the Sea Grit
rife matches so long as the present Off
Gals of the New Jersey Rifle Association
are in charge is exciting considerable
hard feeling throughout this state. The
trouble originated two years ago, when
the Georgians charged that they were
cheated by false markings at the targets.
The matter was investigated at the time,
and the court, consisting of Governor
Voorhees, and General Meany, reached the
conclusion, after an exhaustive examina-
ton of the facts, that there was no
ground for the protest, a conclusion that
was practically admitted by the counsel
for the Georgians. Since, however, the
Georgians refuse to accept this decision
and persist in their insulting attitude, the
demand is made that the New Jersey Rifle
Association now make public all the facts
that were developed in the investigation.
1t is declared that these would show up
the Georgians in far from creditable
light, and that the Jerseymen have moth
ing 10 conceal or be ashamed Of"
Maj. W. w. Williamson, who was cap
tain of the Georgia team, was seen last
night and shown the clipping. He smiled
significantly, but said that the Georgia
team did not care to get into any contro-
versy through the newspapers, so that he
would not make a statement, further than
to say that the Georgians are quite sure
that they are right.

COL. LEWIS AS AFEE TAKER.

The Ex-ConEressman From Wash
ington Piling Up a Bank Account.
The Men Met in Hotel Lobbies' Col
umn of the Washington Post" has a lit
lie chat about Col. James Hamilton
Lewis, who began his legal career in sa-
vannah that will interest Savannah an.
and Georgians generally. Col. Lewis has
recently been South, and is back in Wash
ington.
Il see some doubt expressed by the pa
ners of ex-Representative James Hamilton
Lewis statement that he would take no
POLITICAL Office" said Mr.. Walter s. Full
ton, prosecuting attorney for the Seattle
district to the Post man, but 1 know
he is sincere. Col. Lewis, at our state
convention last year, declined both con-
gressional and a gubernatorial nominal ton,
and he could have been elected to either
office. We elected a Democratic Governor
in Washington.
But why should Col. Lewis want to
come back to Congress?' asked Mr.. Full
Ton. His law firm of Lewis, Hardin &
Albertson has had legal practice Of any
where between $4,000 and $4,000 a year.
since Col. Lewis retired from Congress
he has received many large fees. 1t is
known that in the Alaska boundary arbi-
ration. wherein Col. Lewis was sent to
London to represent the mine owners, he
rot a $4,000 fee; also that in a railroad
receivership fight he was awarded an
other $4,000. In the fight of the Hatch
heirs against the city, of Everett and the
Rockefellers, his firm and their associate
counsel were awarded. by the Federal
Judge a $4,000 fee in the estate. The col
onel occasionally takes hand in the
criminal law Just to demonstrate that he
has not dost the art, as Is shown by this
Nordstrom case, which l am here to ar
que against him. Only month ago ne
cleared of a charge of murder w. E.
Langdon, one of the founders of great
department store in Chicago, and it was
published fact that Col. Lewis would
not consent to defend the case until s. 900
were paid him in cash."
Mr. Fulton says Col. Lewis can probably
cash his check now for $4,000. I'VE think
great deal of him." he added, but we
who know him suspect that he is little
foxy and that he is waiting for Dem
ocratic Legislature and the United States
Senate, or the Pacific coast place in the
cabinet, and he may make it yet
Savannahians have watched the career
Of Col. Lewis with interest ever since he
left Savannah along in the sos with the
announced intention of growing up with
the West. That he has grown up with
the first men of the country is an evidence
of what energy and push, backed with
brains, will do.

QUESTIONS TO ASK
ABOUT AUCTIONS.

IS THE PROPERTY OWNED BY
SOME ONE WHO MUST SELL?
Those lots to be sold on May q are
obliged to be sold at anything above the
mortgage, namely $780, which is the up
set price.
WHAT is AN UPSET PRICE?
Every piece of real estate offered at
1t must bring, or else is bought in by the
owner, through some person bidding for
him
ARE THESE LOTS WORTH THE
AMOUNT THEY ARE MORTGAGED
FOR?
You will find that people who lend
money on real estate will not advance
more than one-half the value of vacant
lots, and the fact that ] have borrowed
over $500 each on these lots is good evil
dence that they are worth ar least twice
that sum.
WHERE ARE THE LOTS?
On Henry and Duffy streets and Park
avenue. between Atlantic and Paulsen
streets Ohe nearest lots to the old part
OF the city; in Collinsville.)
ARE THE LOTS REASONABLY SURE
TO INCREASE IN VALUE?
A quarter OF a mile the other side OF
these lots are some of the handsomest
homes in Savannah and the tide of i'm
provement which is now eastward. must
enhance the price Of these lots very much
in the next few months.
As the lots are mine. ! cannot expect
people to rely on my opinion OF their
value. can only say they cost me over
$500 and other people have valued them
at 500 and loaned me cne-half their
value, namely, $500 on them. Ask any
body familiar with property In this sec
ton about them and then come to the
sale and bid what you think proper
The terms are $50 cash. 6 per cent inter-
est and 10 per cent. discount for all cash
above the first $780, but II these terms
don't suit you. let me know what you
want and / will try TO fixt II.

PLENTY OF POTATOES.

Market Now,


Blackberries were in the City Market
yesterday, although they were of an in
ferior quality. The supply was not great
and there were few who appeared anxious
to pay Is cents a quart for those on sale.
The continued dry weather will mean a
short supply and the berries will be burn
ed on the vines II rain does not come. All
the vegetables in the local market are
suffering for want of rain.
The variety of strawberries on sale now
does not appear to be up to the standard
and are being retailed at Is cents a
basket New Irish potatoes are in the
market and 1t appears that the crop will
be very large one. The potatoes are SELL
ing for SIPS bushel Cabbages,. cucum-
beers and lettuce are also plentiful. Green
peas are up to the demand, but as a rule
are of the marrow fat variety. 1t is a
hard mater to secure sugar peas in the
City Market and it would appear that
most of that variety grown in this sec
ton is shipped to the North. Florida wax
beans were In the market yesterday.
