GsExN q EENrlEv Dsus Ca.

ABmaIl blaze occurred in the George
Jones Barber shop about $3.50 Friduy
evening, caused by an electric light
wire burning in two and setting fre
TO the paper ceiling decorations. The
flames were readily extinguished by
the employees Of the place, but the
department responded promptly to
the alarm. Occurring asst did in the
basement under the Downing house,
the fire created considerable excite
ment for few minutes. The cause
OF the trouble was peculiar. The shop
had recently been piped for gas, and
the plumbers in their work had left
out the insulation from an electric
wire. A pipe was run near the exposed
place, and when the current was
turned on 1t jumped from the wire
to the pipe causing the fire.

 >TASK BEFORE T Must Choose Place of Meet
 ing and a Chief BOTH RACES GROW WARM Generals Torrance, Stewart and Sick. les Are the Candidates for Com rnander-ln-Chief, and Stubborn
 Deadlock Is Expected.
BOTH RACES GROW WARM

Cleveland, O., September 11.-There are two important questions before the Ma tional Grand Army of the Republic en- campment which seem to be very much matters of uncertainty-lthe choice for commander-in-chief and the location of the next national encampment. Denver wants the latter.
 The fight for commander-in- -chief is very interesting sand uncertain. The friends of General Torrance are hopeful that deadlock may ensue between Gen erals Stewart and Sicleles, and thus en- able him to be the successful candidate. Twenty-Five or 30 per cent of the entire vote Is claimed for General Torrance, coming from the West and New England. Missouri is for Siokles, with General Tor rance second choice. Pennsylvania Is united on General Stewart. The New York caucus tonight gave Stewart 2s votes and Siokles 19. Illinois Is said to bo divided. Maryland, California and Yer mont are non-committal. Ohio's informal ballot is said to have been 1s for Sickes and F for Stewart. Kansas voted for Sickles tonight.
 Considerable interest is manifested in the work of the committee on pensions, but little can be learned as to the nature of their action In the convention. A long secret session was held last evening, which did not adjourn until o'clock this morning. Two other sessions were held today, and 1t Is said that the conserva- tive element predominated in the meet ings.
 The National Union Ex-Prisoners = War today elected James D. Walker of Allegheny, Pa., national commander.
 Hanna In Uniform.
 Senator Hanna, wearing Grand Army of the Republic uniform. left the re- viewing stand shortly before noon and joined his post-the Memorial-in its march.
 A number of women and children were overcome in the crush incident to the parade, and the Red Cross and city ann balances were kept busy responding to calls, but no serious casualty was re- ported. It Is expected that the patriotic outburst of today will be duplicated Thursday afternoon, when mass meet ing will be held In praise and thanks giving for the prospective recovery of President MoKiHley Senator Hanna, Governor Nash of Ohio, Mayor Johnson of Cleveland, General Rassieur of the Grand Army, Judge William R. Day ot Canton, Senator Fairbanks of Indiana, Hon. Charles Grosvenor and Rev. Dr. Manchester, the Presidents pastor, will addres the meeting.

DIG COAL DEAL.
J. p. Morgan Said To Be After the
 Virginia Mines.

Roanoke, va., September 11.-West Vir- ginia is on the eve of big coal deal. Some time ago the initial move was made by the purchase of all the coal opera tions o nthe Kanawah river. It is said J. P Morgan was behind 1t and that the drafts for the purchase money bore his signature.
 Hardly had that deal been consum- mated before 1t was announced that the Flat Top field had been purchased by the same or allied interests for $13, ,O0O,O 900. To- day all the New River territory is asog. Messrs. Chiffon. McCorkle and Chiffon. representing New York capitalists, for the past week have been quietly at work, and it Is now said there is not a coal op- eration on New river on which there Is not a twenty day option of purchase.
 Whether or not the purchase will be made probably will be definitely settled tomorrow, as at that time present op- tons win expire, and 1t will require a deposit of $200o0 to renew.

The Presidents clothes, which were removed at tho exposition hospital, have been sent to the Milburh residence, where the pockets were emp tied In his right hand trousers pocket was s1.s0 in currency. With these coins was a small silver nugget well worn, as if the President had carried 1t as a pock- ct piece for a long time. Three small penknlves, pearl-handled, were in the pockets of his trousers. Evidently they were gifts that he prized and was in the habit of carrying all of them Another battered coin, presumably a pocket piece, was in the left hand pocket.

They were not the black perfectos which the President likes, but were short ones that had been given to him at Niagara Falls that day. On two of them he had chewed, much as General Grant used to bite a cigar. The Presidents watch was an op- en-faced gold case American-made time> keeper. Attached to it was the gold chain which the President always wore No letters telegrans or papers were found. There was not on the Presidents person a single clew to his identity, unless It was to be found in the cards in his wal let which were not examined

Albert J. Dabney, Lieutenant U..S.v. writes from Washington, D. O., as fol. lows:
 "Affer fhe use Of two bottles of Pc. runa am fully convinced that # is { good remedy and can conscienfiousIy recommend your medicine 10 anyone who Is in need of q substantial ionic. # Is also a very effective cure for ca. tarrh. ."---ALBERT J. DABNEY.
 It Is rare indeed that two bottles of Peruna is sufficient to convince anyone that Perrna is good remedy. Once in the household Peruna generally stays. More than one-half our ills are due to catarrh. By catarrh is not meant sim ply catarrh of the nose or head, but ca- tarrh of the lungs, stomach, in fact, every organ of the body.
 Almost every disease begins at first with a catarrhal condition of some mucous membrane. A few doses of Pe- runa in the beginning is sure to prevent much sickness.
 Peruna acts as tonic because 1t pro- duces healthy mucous membranes in the stomach and digestive organs. It immediately begins to brace a person up because it enables the digestive or gans to do their duty properly. This is why so many people have found it a substantial tonic.
 Lieutenant Dabney's experience with Peruna exactly coincides with the ex-
