Chicago, July 27.-Fire today de-
stroyed the lard refinery of Swift &
Co., in the stock yards. Rumors CT
incendiarism we're rife. Examina-
tion, however, apparently showed the
cause Of the blaze to have been an ov-
erheated dynamo. The building was
filled with tierces of lard, many OF
which exploded, spreading the burn
ing grease in every direction.
The fire threatened a number OF
buildings near by, but the flremen
managed to keep the flames from
spreading.
Thousands of strikers attempted to
get near the burning building, but
ropes were spread by the police,
blocking the streets for three squares
away. The loss will be 100000.

been seen as that witnessed at taei
local half mile track Tuesday after
noon. There were splendid fields or
starters in the classes on the pro-
gram and racing was such as ono
sees at grand circuit meetings. The
crowd in attendance was very small,
considering the excellence of the pro-
gram. Less than five hundred people
with paid admissions, guests and at
tendants were on the grounds and
there should have been three tnous-
and to witness the events. There
were nine starters in the pace and ten
in the trot
The weather conditions were per-
feet and all that could be desired to
make the meeting a great success.
This track was bit dusty but was
in excellent shape and some surpris-
iRgly fast time was made. The exhi.
billions seen were such that would
have enthused a crowd of wooden
men.

NEW YORK METHODS

In New York the city is divided in
to Districts and the word of the Dis
trict Boss is the law and the gospel.
Some Characteristic anecdotes are
told Of Tim Sullivan, one of these
bosses, who also acts as sort of pol
litical District Judge. His genius
for the equitable WAS evidenced in
the primary fight between Mr.. Diver
and Mr.. Foley for the leadership of
their assembly district. Mr.. Sullivan
came across from his own district to
manage the hopes and fears of Mr..
Foley. On the day Of the primary a
Foley adherent approached the file of
electors that was housekeeping to-
ward the ballot box. They lock-step-
ped perfectly, those electors, and as
ones to whom such difficult pedest.
ianism was not new-and to low
browed, sullen citizen. one of the
housekeeping file, spake the following
words:
who be you fer?'
For d Judge, Sect meaning Mr.
Diver
Come out O. d. line, you mutt
quoth the Foley missionary, yanking
Mr.. DIVERS adherent from his place.
Now screw out, or you be all to d
worse in holly secont!"

follower, when later he bewailed to
Sullivan the measures which obtain

clock-a yellow one with two doors
by which latter words of description
Mr.. DIVERS friend was supposed to
speak of a gold, hunting-case watch
Mr. Sullivan listened, collected hi:
brows into a meditative knot, pause!
a moment, and then decided honestly
as follows:
THAT last amt right, Jimmy
Mikes got to give the watch back.
1t is this capacity to know the rule
and abide by them, even though a:
enemy be favored and a cherishe,
follower driven to disgorge. that ha
raised up Mr.. Sullivan to be the por
ular idol that he is.
