A HOT BLAZE.
One Of Bankers Warehouses De-
stroYed by Fire.
Over 1000 Bales of Hay and Straw,
Belonging t. Caldwell Bros,
Burned.

One of the Barker warehouses. located
between Garden and High streets hacl
of the main warehouse. was totally
destroyed by fire Monday evening.
The fire was discovered about 5 81
O'Clock, and the contents of the build
ing were of such an infiammable ma
ture that the flames spread with light
ning-like rapidity. and by the time
the fire company reached the scene the
house was roaring furnace. The
wind was blowing strongly at the
tine, but fortunately in such direc-
ton as not to endanger other property.
The fire laddies did good fighting. and
were kept awake until late in the
night pouring water ON the fire.
The building was owned by the /.
Barker estate, and was insured by J.
Rosenthal, executor, with A. o. p.
Nicholson for 1915. 1t had been rented
to Caldwell Bros, and was used by
them for the purpose of storing hay
and straw. They had over 1000 bales
of hay and straw in the house. having
put in 900 bales only Monday. The
contents were insured for 81. 900 in
the New York Underwriters, with
Gordon & fowler. agents. but this
will not cover the loss by several hun
dred dollars. 1t is not known how the
fire originated, but it is presumed
that while storing the hay Monday
some one must have accidentally
dropped match.

Unprecedented Proposition.
A special from Washington says:

A special from Washington says:
'Senator Morgan of Alabama has in
troduced bill which makes an almost
unprecedented proposition-t placing
of Gen. James Longstreet, a distin-
guished officer of the Confederacy, on
the retired list of the regular army,
with the rank and pay Of Major.
Gen. Joe Wheeler, former Confederate
officer, was commissioned Brigadier
of regulars and later retired as such,
and Congress, by special act, au-
thorized the placing Of Fitzhugh Lee
on the retired list as a Brigadier-
General, but each of these officers had
served in the volunteer army during
the Spanish American war. Gen.
Longstreet has not served in the army.
although he has held Federal office
since the civil war.
