TOWNS THIRD DEvAsTATIoN

For the third time within twelve years,
Berlin, Md, was visited by a disastrous
fire last Saturday which originated in a
large veneering mill opposite the Phila.
delphia, Baltimore & Washington station.
The flames spread to the lumber mill Of
Thomas Whaley, and before it was gotten
under control the fire had destroyed the
sawmill of Louis Dill, the Presbyterian,
and Episcopal Churches, the Methodist
Episcopal parsonage and sixteen resi-
dences.
The principal losers are John W. Der
rickson, Mrs. Elizabeth Derrickson,
Horace Davis, Washington Bennett,
George Taylor, John Gibbs, Roger
Adams, Thomas Tingle, Riley Ennis, A.
7. Cbantz, Noah Bradford. Frank john
son, George Rayne. The residence of
Dr. Derrickson was saved, but all OF his
barns, outbuildings aud fences were de-
stroyed. The Park Hotel caught fire
several times, but was saved. The total
loss is $4,000.
Though Berlin has 5000 population it
is without fire projections, excepting a
bucket brigade. In the fire ten year ago
the residence section OF town was de.
rtroyed and two years ago the busines
section was destoyed.

ADDICKs LOSES PLANT

WILMINGTON, DEL, Oct. 9th. h.--Fai!ui,
Of j. Edward Addicks to meet a $250O
judgment against his Oxy-Hydrogen Gas
Company, of Wilmington, into which ii
is understood about $4,000 has gone in
the dozen years since it was organized,
has ended in loss of the property. Some
two months ago the company was forced
to Sheriff's sale under the judgement
which covered arrears of city taxes.
Lawyer Hills, acting for the Will.
mington Gas and Electric Company,
which is controlled by John and Jan J
Dobson, of Philadelphia, bought the
Addicks property. Upon representations
of counsel for the gasman that cash was
forthcoming to settle the judgement, con-
firmation of the sale was postponed by
the court.
The money failed to materialize, and
on Wednesday the Sheriff made out a
deed of sale to Hills. That has been
confirmed by the court. and the prop
critics and franchises were turned over to
the Wilmington Gas and Electric Com
pany.
knowledge of these facts, indicating
the boss lack of cash, has caused con-
sternation among the Addicksites, and
proposals have been made by them to go
in and support the entire ticket OF the
regular" Republicans. Such support is
pledged upon condition that the Addicks
party shall be permitted to name the
Secretary of State. So far the REGULARS"
have refused to make any deal.-Phila

DR.. BROWN Is MODERATOR

The fall meeting Of the New Castle
Presbstery which has been in session
in Rock Presbyterian Church near Fair
Hill, Md, closed Wednesday night. A
popular meeting was held when addresses
were made by the Rev. Joel S. Gillfillan,
of Newark, and the Rev. F. w. Williams,
OF Lewes.
During the session Rev. DR.. w. ].
Rowan, pastor of the Newark Presbyter-
ian Church, was elected moderator to
fill out the unexpired term of the Rev.
J. NJ. Bull, of Georgetown, Nd, who was
recently transferred to church at Stew
artstown, Pa.
Quite discussion arose when the Rev.
Robert A. Elwood, pastor Of Olivet Pres
byterian Church, Wilmington, brought
forth the fact that the Rev. T. A. Nc
Curdy, of Central Presbyterian Church,
and the Rev. j. L. McElmoyle, Of Elk
ton, had appointed themselves members
of the board of trustees of the New Castle
Presbytery and also chairman of all the
important committees.
In making his charges Mr.. Elwood
referred to Drs. McCurdy and McElmoyle
as "modern Alphonse and CASTOR" and
said their action in appointing themselves
on all the important committees was an
insult to the capable members who have
been placed on insignificant committees.

CHARGED WITH CONSTABLE MURDER

ELKToN, MD. Oct. 6th.-Upon infor-
nation furnished by States Attorney j.
Wilson Sqnier, warrants were sworn out
yesterday by Henry II. Gilpin, iuStire Of
the peace, charging John Holland AMI
William Koppa, negroes. with the mur-
der of Albert Constable, the lawyer,
who was waylaid, robbed and fatally shot
OH the evening of August 18th last.
While both Holland and Hops were
held on suspicion OF having knowledge
OF the crime, they were not held on
warrants, but only as witnesses. The
move made to-day by the authorities in
swearing out warrants charging them
with the crime is taken as an indication
that case is being made out. Senator
Henry NJ. Mccullough, it is understood,
has been retained by the negroes to look
after their interests.
