Flames at Albany Total
Loss $45O,OOO.

New York, April 27-A fire that
started on the top floor of the John
Stanley Soap works, in West Thir-
tieth street, this city, was followed
by three explosions in the basement of
the building and the whole structure
was soon in a blaze. The property takes
in half the block between Eleventh
and Twelfth avenues. Twenty horses
were nthe Thirtieth street side of the
building and it was impossible to res
cue them. At 2 a. m. the big lumber
yards adjoining We're in imminent dam
ger, but they were saved with consid-
elable loss.
Explosions Blow Out the Walls.
Explosion after explosion occurred
while the fremen were working at the
building. Three-quarters of an hour
after the fire was discovered one of
the heaviest explosions occurred, blow
ing out the side walls Of the main
building. A little later an explosion
blew out the back wall Of the build
ing and spread the fire to the lumber
piles, fifty feet high, in the lumber
yard of Dunbar Bros. Many of the
horses on the property were burned
to death.
Will Cost Somebody 100000.
At 3 a. N. the fire was practically
under control. The soap works were
totally destroyed, together with a five
story building. The loss to Dunbar
Bros will be quite heavy, a laxge
quantity of lumber in their yards hav-
ing been burned. The total loss will
amount to about 100000.

coaches and several dining and one
private car were destroyed in a fire
which burned the coach shop of the

Ell the JOY or the guardians was bound
less. From one trust company's safes
alone papers to the amount of more
than $200000,000 were recovered. The
news cheered the whole city and en-
couraged immediate and thorough in
vestigation. Merchants and assist
ants smoke-soiled and begrimed and
hollow-eyed from anxiety and loss of
sleep, worked like laborers in the
smoking ruins to uncover their safes,
and in nearly every instance they were
rewarded by intact contents.
Many weeks will elapse before all
the streets within the fire territory

depth of four feet, large marble and
broken, and networks of telegraph tel
ephone and electric light wires cover

oughfares in many places are towering
walls that will have to come down be-
fore any attempt can be made to clear
the streets at those points.
At special meeting of the mem
bers of the Baltimore stock exchange
all the members expressed themselves
as confident that the financial commu-
nifty will soon recover from the effects
of the fire and that out of the ruins
would arise greater Baltimore" A
resolution was passed offering the
mayor and finance commissioners all
the money the city may need.

Continued violation of international
law, destruction of American property
and disregard of foreign interests has
convinced officials that affairs there
can be best improved by force. It's

MAcHEN TESTIFiES
Evidence Given by Chief Figure in
Postal Trials.

Washington, Feb. 10.-The central
figure in the postal trial, August w.
Machen, former superintendent of the
rural free delivery division, when
placed on the stand said he assumed
responsibility for the acts of Miss
Liebhardt, his chief clerk, who had
initiated and signed letters from his
division. He rehearsed the oil trans
action which has figured SO conspic-
uously in the trial and said that the
$4,000 received from Lorenz in Pay
ment of the Machen interest in the
oil property was a bonafide sale. The
Croft fastener, he said, had been called
to the attention of the department
before he received his appointment.
He denied emphatically that up to the
time Mr.. Lorenz in August 1895 spoke
of having an interest in the device he
had any suspicion of the fact and
was equally emphatic in saying that
neither Mr.. Lorenz nor the Groffs ever
influenced his action either in placing
the first order for the fasteners or in
any subsequent orders.

TERRY M,GOYERN.

' Terry McGovern, one of the great est and gamest and most popular lit tie fellows who has ever donned the mitts and fought his way from the bottom of the heap to the champion ship in two classes, is just as popular to-day as he was when he was the un- disputed featherweight champion, if one can judge properly from the re-
 ception which he received at Polls theater last night. Terry and his wife play leading roles in the melodrama, ''The Bowery After Dark" which was presented at Polls last night before a large audience and will again be pro- duced tonight. The play is a strong one of its kind and affords Terry, the Bowery tough, plenty of opportunity to use his fists as i'll the good old days Every time Terry used his fist, some ruffian dropped and that was the signal for prolonged applause from the gallery gods. The former champion must have been delighted with the reception which he received when he made his first appearance last night. For several minutes there was deafening applause and Terry had to respond by doffing his cap four or five times. A few min utes later when he replied to a ques- ion from a man, whose shoes he was shining, that he hoped to be champion of the world again the house fairly shook with applause. At the end of the final act there is three-round bout between Terry and Danny Dougherty. It is reproduction of the McGoyern- -Erne battle, fought be fore the Lenox Athletic club of New York in the good old days of the Hor- ton law. It is rather fast and lively and some good work is done. It ia rather realistic. There is a ring pitched on the stage and it is sur rounded by about 100 boys, who grow rather excited as the fight progresses

THE THEATERS

Der that caught on finely yesterday was that presented by Miss Kate Min n1han and her company in the form of a singdng novelty. Miss Minnihan is regarded in some respects as one of our own Waterbury girls because of the fact that her mother was for a long time resident of Waterbury and for some years the organist at the I'm maculate Conception church. The young woman has number of rela- lives here, former Town Clerk Frank F. Brett being her first cousin, and the presence of many friends in the audiences yesterday was attested by the cordial reception extended on her entry. Miss Minnihan sang in splen- did voice and recorded a distinct sue cess, and her future in vaudeville promises to be bright A musical act of rare excellence is that presented by Smith and Fuller, and we do not recall seeing its equal on this stage.

VIEW OF COAL MINES AT. NEW
 CHWANG.

and the great importance of the coal supply to both the railway and ship ping at Port Arthur, would be the first places to fortify and defend against the ravages of the Russians sworn enemy, the Hunghusa, or bandit. These mines, however, were left to the foreigners and mine employees to defend, which they did for a few days, but had even- tually to retire, leaving all this work and expensive machinery to be de- stroyed-houses pulled down, engines pulled to bits, and machinery thrown down the shaft-when detachment of Cossacks might have saved all. There could be only two reasons for such ac- tion. Either the Russians had not troops enough in the country to defend the mines, CT they had no faith tn the produc- of coal. Both considerations probably were carefully weighed be- fore the mines were abandoned Tn 1901 the mine at Mo-chi-San was again set in working order, places rebuilt and the shaft reopened; but as of late we have not heard of any considerable production of coal on the line, the Rus sian anticipations could not have been fulfilled. There is, however, every in dication of good coal in Manchuria; but the Russians cannot work coal mines themselves-this fact they own by their employment of foreigners. On the other hand, the foreigners em- p1oyed are so hampered that they could never do justice to the coal There Is not the slightest possible doubt that warv rich veins of c0a1 oyist in Man. churia and north China. The Kaiping coal mines, worked by Englishmen, on the Chinese Imperial railway, of which MT. Kinder. c. M. G., is the engineer in-chief, afford an undoubted instance of what can be done under proper man. agement.

MANCHUR|AN MINES
RUSSIA OWNS AND CONTROLS VALUABLE COAL DEPOSITS.
Natives Have Never Mined Deep, But the Russians Are Developing the Mines and Getting
 Better Coal.

There are extensive traces of coal along the line of the Siberian railway, but it has only been worked on the surface by the Manchus, who have no machinery, and as soon as they strike water, or find the incline getting too steep, they start again in a fresh place. Surface coal is well known not to be so good as deepseated coal, and this the Russians found out, for they were unable to use the Chi lnese coal, owing to the very great amount of clinker in it. Consequently MT. Giershman, the head of the rail- way department, engaged foreigners, and brought from Europe extensive machinery, which was in the first in stance, after much deliberation, erect ed at Wha-fang- -tien, halfway between YinkoW and Port Arthur. There three shafts were sunk and an incline made to draw the coal to the surface; ex- tensive workshops, forges,, were set. up, also half dozen houses for the ac-. commodation of the foreigners. Mine hands were obtained and Chinese fore men were brought up from Canton, or near the Kaiping mines in China prop CT Wha-fang-tien, where the southern mine was situated, is two miles from the station, but connected by line of rails with the main line.
 This mine could produce from 50 to 100 tons of coal per diem. Apparently. however, the authorities in Port, Ar thur did not consider this sufficient, or the coal was not of the best quality, for in the early part of 1900 the ma- chinery at Wha-fang- tien was removed gradually to 8 place considerably fur .ther north on the line near the village of Yeulai, called Mo-chi-San, about ten miles from Mukden Here a much deeper shaft was excavated, and more permanent and extensive houses and workshops were built, Chinese houses were fitted up for the use of Euro peans, powder magazines erected for explosives, etc.
 About June, 1900, just as the build ings were finished, boiler houses built over the engines. and very consider able shaft sunk, and coal in small quantities obtained, the Boxer trouble broke out. One would have thought that these coal mines, after the consid- erable sums of money spent on them.
