Fire In New Yerk CITY.
NEW YORK, Nov. GA fire which
at midnight had consumed In SIX houEs
property estimated by Chief Croker TO-
have been worth $75O,o0O started at 8
O'Clock last night In the lumber yard
Of William Uptsgrove 4 Bros. at 466
East Tenth street and laid block and
half In ruins after making one Of the
most brilliant river front spectacles
seen In this city in recent years. 1t de-
stroyed entirely the lumber yards Of
the George Hagemeyer Il SONS Lum-
Der company and James M. Saul
paugh's Sons, at the foot of East Elev-
enth street.
In the early part Of the fire the fall
ing walls of the ITptegrove yards big
building crashed into the Standard OIL
company's Office on Eleventh street and
released a tide of naphtha, which, when
touched by spark, started ina fiery
stream down the street and was instru-
mental in causing most Of the damage.
This drove the tiremen to distance for
a time. causing them to cut away the
fire boats and engines in hurry, leav-
ing behind thousands of feet of hose.
The big plant of the Consolidated
Gas company, which runs along the
river front from Eleventh street to Six
teenth street, was in the dangerous
zone all through the fire. ExtraOrdina-
ry precautions were taken to prevent
the flames from reaching it.

LONDON. Nov. 29.-Three hundred
guests assembled last evening for the
Thanksgiving dinner under the au.
spices of the American society in Lon
don. John Morgan Richards was In
the chair.
Paul Cambon, the French embassa-
dor to Great Britain, proposed the
health Of President Roosevelt. Henry
White, the United States charge d'af-
faires, responded to the toast 1.-THE
Charge d'Atfnires," proposed Dy JUS
nice Walton. M. Cambon paid feel
qng tribute to the late President Nc
Kinley, whose death, he said, had
shocked France and knit the sister re-
publics in closer bonds Of sympathy
and sorrow. While President Roose-
welt was an unknown quantity in the
world, said NJ. Cambon, his was a
cultured, energetic and charming per-
sonality, and his elevation to the presl-
dency had been received in France
with the happiest anticipations of car
rying on those cordial relations which
had existed between the two countries
for over century past.
Justice Walton paid high tribute
to Mr.. Whites efforts to promote good
feeling between Great Britain and the
United States.
Conan Doyle, the novelist, produced
perhaps the greatest effect Of the even
ing by declaring the pendulum of the
British world had now shifted TO some.
where between New York and Chicago.
There Is no use in Disgusting this
important fact continued DR.. Doyle.

spoke, he said the only thing which re.

would like to control the appropria.
ton Of the Board OF Education.
At present the law provides that
the Board shall receive $40,
year tor new buildings and an in
crease of > per cent over the ap-
preparation received during the
previous year. Next year the 5
per cent Increase will amount to
$4,000. and each year goes higher.
The members of Council, that is
the Democratic members. think the
increase in appropriation TO that
body is much greater than the IN.
ere ase in educational expense.
The money spent BY the Board Of
Education, as we understand it, is
derived from the taxes on property.
Every dollar received should be put

doubtedly i'll somebody's hands,

There is only one solution to the

see what reason any OF the three
Commissions can urge that they
should not comply strictly with the
law governing their bonding with
the city for the faithful performance

their duties according to the oath
they take on assuming Office, there
can be no harm in them giving halt

obey the law as soon as possible,
which would stop the mouths Of
some people who appear 10 think
there IS something crooked because
the missing bonds have not turned
