Lisbon Falls Disastrous Fire.

Lisbon Falls was visited by the worst
destructive fire in the history of the
town, early Saturday morning, wher
hundreds of persons were rendered
homeless and property from the value
of $l25,000 to 100000 was destroyed
Only two stores which furnished the
necessities of life were spared.
The fire originated in the Everett
block on Main street and was discovered
by party of Red Men returning from
a visit to their brothers in Freeport, who
were attracted by the volume of smoke
issuing from the building.
An alarm was given, but it became at
once apparent that the local department
would be entirely unable to cope with
the flames and telephone message
asking for assistance was sent to Bath
and another to Lewiston. la the mean
time the little hand engine, manned by
citizens, fought bravely against toe
great odds and the flames spread rapidly
A small, Anticipated hand engine, such
as was in general use many years ago
the only piece of fire fighting appsratu:
in the town, was hurried to the scene
and stream turned on the burning
structure.
The heavy rains which prevailed al
most constantly for the week past haC
soaked the roofs and 1t is to this fact
probably, that the entire village was moi
destroyed. Nearly two hours elapsed
before the first engine arrived from
Lewiston, and this was followed late
by another and an engine from Bath
With these reinforcements the fighter
succeeded in getting the flames unde
control shortly after four o'clock, bu
not until IS buildings, including all tn,
| finest business blocks on the main street
had been destroyed.
1t is hard blow for the town as wei
as individual losers. Much of the burn
district will be rebuilt.

Hasty Conclusions.

A sensational despatch from Manils
was published, last week, to the effect
that frauds In the commssary depart.
ment had been discovered, that large
quantities of government stores had
been found in the hands Of unauthorized
been traced back to 1900, and 1t was
believed that they were far-reachng
The statement gained wide circulation
and those opposed to the policy which
shaped itself into our occupancy of the
Philippines were unjust In their de-
nunciation.
A later statement from General Mac.
Arthur says that the frauds are being
investigated but are not OF sufficient
gravity to cause concern; they are ap-
parently due to irregularity sales savings.
The explanation of the sales savings is
this That the amount of rations issued
to the soldiers and not used may be re-
turned to the commissary department
and bought by the government at cost
price or may be sold elsewhere. Ii
would seem, however, that there could
not be large quantities Of such savings
unless there was wastefulness in issuing
rations. 1t also appears that there are
sales OF commissary stores to officers and
men, on certificate or declaration thar
they are for the personal use OF the
buyers. 1t would appear that here was
chance for speculation by buying of
the government at moderate price and
selling at high, were 1t not for the
statement that no great amount of such
purchases could be made by any person
or persons without detection, Perhaps
not, without collision, butgit is con.
ceivable that a number of eommissary
officers might conspire with others to
make such sales and divide the profits
and thus might conceal the transaction.
With a commissary department greatly
increased at the time of the Spanish war
to meet the existing condition-men
chosen for positions which they had had
no military training, it is not to be
wondered at that some of those selected
were unfit for the responsible posts they
held. 1t required millions of dollars
worth of merchandise to clothe, feed and
equip 10000 men, vast undertaking,
when one stops to consider it.
Some irregularities have been de-
tected in this department and thorough
investigation will be made and the guilty
ores will suffer. 1t is hoped, for the
credit of the army, that the first reports
have been exaggerated.
