HOLBROOK FIRE.
The EnterPrisins Town Out West Pretty
 Badly Scorched.

hOlDrOOk- A L. Apr1l lo--A about o'clock this Sunday morn ing pistol shots and cries of fire rang out upon the still night, an nOuncing to the citizens that theii little town was once more threat ened with destruction by that insa tiable demon that only a dozen year: previous had laid in ashes the pret- ty little town.
 In a few moments hastily dressed people began to arrive upon the scene of the confiagration, which was discovered to be in the west end of A. NJ. Boyer's livery and feed barn and in the apartment filled with loose hay and other infiam- mable material. The barn, being located almost in the center of the town and immediately surrounded by the warehouse and store oi Wetzler Bros. on the north, just across the alley, the Argus office on the east and closer than any of the others on the south, only a few yards away, was the two story dwelling house of MT. Boyer, and on the next lots adjoining the resi- dence of w. B. Woods, in which is located the United States military and Postal telegraph offices.
 It was seen at once that it was impossible to save the barn. Within a few minutes the fire had crossed the alley, consuming Wetzler Bros warehouse and contents, consisting mostly of a large stock of Navajo blankets to the amount of S1 800 totally destroyed. Wetzler Bros. estimate their loss at about S2,0O0, including the warehouse. Amount of insurance carried on warehouse, $500.
 The next building in the line of march was the frame house occu- pied by the Holbrook Argus. Mir Pease, however, succeeded in saw ing most of the office fixtures and furniture. with the exception of the press, which being very heavy, could not be moved in the short space of time allowed. MT. Pease's loss is about s4OO, but he states he will leave for Los Angeles in the morning to arrange for a new press and that the publication of the Argus will not miss a single num- Der.
 Mir Boyer's livery barn and its contents were totally destroyed, in cluding wagons, buggies, harness, hay, etc, representing a value of about 1900. It was only by a great effort that his dwelling and that of MT. Woods were saved. MT. Woods sustained a loss of about S1O0 in damage to windmill, out buildings and fences
 The cause of the fire is unknown. Albuquerque Citizen

WILL PAY WAR CLAIMS.
Iowa Likely to Get Money Advanced
for the Civil War.

Washington, d. c., Feb. 3.-The
committee IN appropriations Saturday
concluded the consideration of the ur-
gent deficiency appropriation bill. II
was amended in several important de-
tails. among the amendments being
one making provision for the enter
tainment of Prince Henry in his APP
preaching visit: another providing for
the expense of the American embassy
to London on the occasion of the
forthcoming coronation of King Ed
ward. In neither case was the sum
fixed at Saturdays meeting because OF
the uncertainty of the committee as to
the sum necessary. The figures, how
ever, will be supplied after communi-
eating with the state department. and
before the bill is reported on Monday
The committee also decided to rec
ommend the payment of the interest
claims of such states as advanced
money to the United States during the
civil war and were able to show the
action by the court of claims. In
many cases where money was adj
yanced by the states, the funds so ad-
vanced were borrowed n the states
compelled to pay interest upon the
amounts thus secured. The national
government refunded the principal in
all such cases, but in accordance with
the practice of the government refused
to reimburse the states for money PAID
on account of interest.

Catholic War on Socialism.

London, Feb. 3.-More than a year
ago was announced the formation IN
Rome of a Catholic association deliber-
ately designed to fight socialistic abor
organizations. The movement has since
attained enormous proportions, thanks
to the benevolent interest of the pope
and the active assistance of the clergy
turnout the country. There are now
1000 branches, averaging perhaps zoo
members each, whose energy and ag-
g~ressiveness have thoroughly alarmed
the socialists. The hour for battle will
sound when the pope removes the ban
which he imposed thirty years g and

BIG GIFT FOR HARVARD.
Rockefeller to Donate An Immense
Sum &c That Institution.

III " bIdA
Cambridge. Mass, Feb. 3.-The Har-
ward medical school is to have a fund
of $4,000, 900 to carry out it's new plans
for education and research If friends OF
the university will raise one-fifth of the
total.
This fact was made public in an
%nouncing a promise of $1,000, 900 made
by John ID. Rockefeller.
Following the announcement at com
mencement exercises last June that j.
P. Morgan had agreed to erect at the
cost Of over $1,000. 900 three of the
buildings required for the accommoda-
ton Of the Harvard medical school
President Eliot announced to the med
ical faculty that j. ID. Rockefeller pro-
poses to give 81, 900. 900 in furtherance
of this great project, provided that 9TH
err friends of the university will raise
a sum of money in the neighborhood of
$500, 900 to be used by the Harvard
medical school for land, buildings or
endowment.
1t was stated that there can be little
doubt this condition will be speedily
complied with and that this magnifi-
cent plan for the Advancement of medi-
cine and the allied sciences will soon
become ar accomplished fact.
Since the announcement was made
that Mr.. Morgan had agreed to erect
three of the buildings the plans of the
architects called for two additional
laboratory buildings and a considerable
fund was also needed to provide for the
increased running expenses for this
large educational plant. 1t was there
fore gratifying to the medical faculty
to learn that Mr.. Rockefeller proposes
to give 81, 900, 900 in furtherance of the
project.

STRIKE IN WOODEN MILL.
Six Thousand Operatives Quit tn
Looms at OlneYvilIe, r. L

80 ksN
Looms at OlneyviIIe, r. l..
Providence, R. L., Feb. 3.-An the
mills of the American Wooden com
Saturday for an indefinite period be-
cause of the policy the weavers of the
Weybosset and Riverside mills pur-
sued in antagonizing the double loom
system by ~endeavoring to precipitate
"a general strike. Over 5000 oper-
atives are thrown out of employment.
The double loom weavers in the
Weybosset mill struck several days
ago and have since been endeavoring
to induce the weavers in the other
mills to come out in a body.
A melting was held at noon Satur-
day in the Riverside mill. but the
leaders suddenly changed their plans,
and instead of transacting their bust
ness as anticipated and allowing the
operatives to return to work after the
noon hour, they decided hat all should
adjourn to Textile Hall. AS a result
1874 eavers left their looms, thereby
precipitating the strike.
The meeting was IN enthusiastic one
and 1t was decisively and unanimously
voted not to return to work unit the
double loom work on all grades except
clays and serges was abolished.
The plants closed are the National
and Providence worsted mills. the Riv-
erside, Weybosset and Manton mills.
NE officials of the American Wooler
company refused to give out any
statement.
The cause of the strike is the double
loom system instituted about 81
months ago, by which one nan was
required to manage two looms. This
not only reduced the number of EN-
ployes, but also cut wages. The men
complained, but all the satisfaction
they got was a promise by the treas
urer of the American Wooden COM
pany to arrange that the workers
