SOUTH BEACH FIRE.SW EPT
MANY BUILDINGS DESTROYED
ALONG THE SHORE.
Every Structure for "a Distance of 2 500
Feet Wiped Out-The Loss Estimated
Music Hall of the Casino Which Was
Being Repaired for tho Opening the
Season.

New York, April 27.-South Beach, the
bathing resort on the Staten Island
shore just outside the Narrows, was
fireswept tonight, every structure
along the beach for distance of $500
feet being destroyed, involving a loss
estimated at $150000. The resort is not
yet open for the season and most of the
places destroyed were untenanted.
The fire started under the music hall
of the casino of Albert Hergenham,
who had come down in the morning to
prepare the place for the opening of the
season AS the music hall had not been
opened it is suspected that the fire was
of incendiary origin. In few minutes
the whole structure was ablaze, and be-
fore the engines could be summoned
from Stapleton the flames had attacked
the frame structures on either side The
spread Of the fire was finally checked to
the westward and at Milers hotel,
which was badly damaged.
In the other direction the flames ran
to the extreme end of the beach. The
principal structures destroyed in add-
tion to the casino were Walsh's hotel
and Wightmans 'Aquarama."

initial Regarding the Prospect of "a
settlement.

New York, April 27.-President

since Saturday.
w. H. Truesdale, president Of the
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western
Railroad company, who is member OF
the sub committee appointed on Satur-
day to try and form basis of settle
ment, said: There is no reason why
the miners should not be satisfied with
present conditions. There is no reason
why we should make concessions to
them The rank and file of the miners
are perfectly satisfied with matters as
they are"
Mr.. Truesdale would not say whether
or not the chances seemed more favor
able to a settlement at the beginning
of the conference than when it was
ended All he would say was that the
miners were we'll paid and worked un-
der fair conditions.
e. B. Thomas, chairman of the board
of directors of the Erie Railroad com
pany, who is also on the sub-commit-
tee, declined to express an opinion as
to the chances of a settlement.
1T is the throwing of penny i'll
the air''he said. You cannot say
whether heads or tails will come upper
most
The committees of the operators and
miners forming the joint committee
which was charged with the work of
trying to find basis of settlement,
will confer separately tomorrow, sU
sto be ready for the joint conference

While this conference was only prelim-
mary to the important one to be neld in
Washington with all of the meat bar
ons' Mr. Sulzberger felt called upon to
make some definite promise to the ln-
sistent committeeman.
Il can say with assurance" when
pressed for some promise of relief,
that in month from now prices will
have sought their former level or close
to 1t, l can make that promise be-
cause there will be an influx by that
time of the new grass fed cattle from
Texas and with the thousands Of them
on the market a break in prices is
bound to follow"
1t was learned that the conference
to be held in Washington will be held

pointed by the Republican club to in
vestigate the meat question and assist
in prosecution if relief could not be OBJ
tanned in any other way. 1t is not be-
lieved that Attorney General Knox will
be present, as such proceeding while
he is preparing to prosecute the trust
men would hardly be likely.
