me GnrlV1ng little town of Cotton Plant, forty six miles south of New port on the White & Black River Val- ley branch of the Choctaw, suffered a terrible visitation by fire early Friday morning, which demolished the frame business houses on both sides of the main street for the entire length of q long block. The fire demolished nineteen business houses, the total loss aggregating $23,1OO with only $l65O Insurance to reimburse the losers.
 The fire was discovered about a. m. by the ightwatchman at Terrv,s saw mill, who immediately gave the alarm throughout the town. It is supposed by the people of Cotton Plant that two drunken men, who had room on the second floor of the Mayberry building, where the fire originated, were probably careless with matches. One of them is miss ing and the bones and charred re- mains of the other were found in the ruins, and an inquest had been ordered for o'clock Friday afternoon.
 The water works plant was not in good working order and nothing could be done to stop the progress of the flames until they reached the brick edifices in the next block.
 Following are the losses reported by telephone to the INDEPENDENT:
