two hundred houses. The financial
loss will be the heaviest in the history
of Mississippi since the war. The fire
was three blocks wide and twelve
blocks long. The city was putting in
new system of water works and the
Old system which had wooden mains,
was wholly inadequate to meet the de-
mand. Pipes burst all over the city
and it was impossible to get the water
even to the first floors of buildings.
The fire started in the residence of
Mr.. Wise, and though there is dispute
as to how it originated, the general
belief is that II had its origin in defec-
tive electric wiring.
Early in the day the authorities of
Jackson were called on to render as

minutes. The Jackson firemen work

In the afternoon the fire jumped a

sixty families are homeless.
This afternoon Governor Vardaman

company directing them to go to
Yazoo City to protect property. He

on the next train and are there to-
night doing what they can to relieve
the situation. The only communica-

Insurance adjusters will leave here
in the morning for the stricken city.
Among the buildings which were
not burned are the aZOO county
Court house and the Kicks Memorial
library. Both We're in the path of the
fire but for some reason escaped.
According to advices received to-
night, the banks succeeded in saving
their money and securities, the vaults
of the banks in which they were lock-
ed being fire-proof. The government
funds in the postoffice were saved in
like manner.
The latest reports from Yazoo City
place the loss at figures between So

mates are even as high as $3,000,0G0.
The total insurance is between $780,,

Durham, N c., May 2G.-Mr. S. M.
Holton, ex-chairman of the Republi-
can Executive committee in this coun-
tv and brother of Mr.. A. E. Holton,
eX-chairman of the State committee,
is heartily in sympathy with the posi-
ton taken by Judge Bynum at the
Greensboro convention. He believes
that the judge was right as far as he
went but that he did not go far
enough.
MY position is that Judge Bynum
should have gone before that conyen-
ton and refused to sit with thieves,
if they were there as alleged in the
public press, and drove the money
changers from the temple of justice.
This was the expression of Mr.. Holton
when asked by your correspondent
what he thought of the matter.
Mr.. Holton did not mince words
when speaking of the condition of the
Republican party as demonstrated in
that Greensboro convention. He be-
lieves although he did not say as
much that the Republicans are now
in the worst hole they have been in
this State in years.

Doctor Strange the Man
Chosen.

the Rev. DR.. Carmichael, a man of
great ability. His service in Rich
mond is what might have been ex-
pected from his previous success as a
pastor and preacher. Ever since the
question of electing a bishop cOadju-
tor has been before the minds of the
people of East Carolina, his name has
been constantly mentioned in connec-
ton with it and the whole body of
the lay people of the diocese seem to
have been united in favor of his cleo
ton"
Osition of the Clergy.
We understand the clergy of the
diocese was divided iii opinion among
several candidates at their convention
last fall SD that no election was made
at that time. We suppose that the
strong feeling on the part of the laity
has satisfied the clergy that they will
do we'll to choose a man who would
have to sustain him in his work for
the diocese such united and enthusiasts
tic support on the part of his peo-
pie.
In reference to the report which
had reached this city that Bishop
Cheshire had been quoted on the floor
of the convention as being in favor
of the election of Archdeacon Will
liamS, of Washington, ID. c., the bish-
op explained it would have been i'm
proper for him to have taken any ac-
ton towars furthering the election of
any man in the diocese of East Caro-
lima. BIut that he had said to friends
OF East Carolina who had spoken to
him on the subject that in case Dr.
Strange could not be elected he would
suggest for their consideration the
name of Archdeacon Williams Bish-
op Cheshire said that he had known
Mr.. Strange since he was an under
graduate at Chapel Hill, at which time
the bishop was rector of the church
in Chapel Hill, and that he had al
ways held him in the highest esteem,
both as man of integrity OF excep-
tiOnal ability and with a singular pure
and elevated Christian character. In
his opinion the diocese of East Caro-
lima has chosen wisely and the Rev.
DR.. Strange possesses many qualities
to enable him to do valuable and eff
fective work for the church and for
the people of East Carolina.
