CONFEDERATION at Hot Springs, Ark,
Caused Loss Of $t,5oo,ooo.
Hot Springs, Ark, Feb. 27.-rhe
first estimates of the damage done by
the great conhagration we're not exag-
gerated. More than 40 city blocks
have been eaten away by the flames,
and the most conservative estimate
places the loss at 81, 500, 200, while sew
eral insurance men say the figures will
reach $2,OOO,0C0.
The three unknown bodies recovered
are the only known fatalities.
The citizens relief committee has
the situation well in hand. The amount
subscribed for relief work totals $12,-
600. and the sum is being steadily in
creased
The relief committee has systema-
tized its work to such an extent that
no deserving person rendered desti-
tute by the confagration has suffered
for the ordinary comforts of life.
Nearly every residence in the city has
been thrown open to such persons, and
the management of the Oaklawn race
track has rendered the use of its grand
stand and cottages.
The fire started in the Grand Cen
tral Hotel, and its origin is a mystery
A strong north wind was blowing, and
before the fire department could reach
the scene the flames spread rapidly to
adjoining buildings.

KILLED BY REJECTED LOVER
Chicago Policeman Shot Heiress and
Then Committed Suicide.

chicaao Policeman Shot Heiress and
Then Committed Suicide.
Chicago, Feb. 2S.-Miss Mary Cath
crime Mulvel, an heiress, was mur-
dered by Daniel Herman, policeman,
whose love she had refused. The
crime was committed in the most
fashionable part of Michigan Boule-
ward at a time when the avenue was
filed with pedestrians and carriages
Herman, after killing the young wom-
an. escaped and committed suicide in
a lodging house by shooting himself
through the brain with the same re-
volver with which he had killed Miss
Mulveil.
Herman became infatuated with the
girl through hearing her play at st.
James Roman Catholic Church, where
she was organist, and he had for a
long time annoyed her with his atten-
tions. constantly urging her to marry
him. Miss Mulveil had refused him re-
peatedly, and had told several Of her
friends a short time ago that he had
threatened to kill her unless she mar
ried him. She said she feared that she
might meet Herman, who followed her
wherever she went.
Herman had been a member OF the
Chicago police force for several years,
acting as a plain clothes" man. For
a year he had been on furlough.

$4,000, 900 FIRE IN
new ORLEANS
Flames Swept Twelve Squares Of
River Front
si,5oO,oOo FIRE AT bot SPRINGS

New Orleans. Feb. 27.-Fire involv-
ing millions of dollars loss in physical
property and that strikes a serious, II
temporary, blow at the immense ex-
port trade of New Orleans, swept the
river front and wiped out the vast
freight terminals of the Illinois Cen
tral, known as the Stuyvesant DOCKS
Nearly a dozen squares Of modern
wharves and freight sheds, two mag
niflcent grain elevators, hundreds OF
loaded cars and vast quantities OF
freight. including 10000 bales OF cot
ton. we're destroyed, together with a
large number of small residences.
The ocean-going shipping seems
to have escaped serious damage. A
number of firemen and employees of
the docks we're injured. Actual esti-
mates of the losses are impossible,
though they may exceed $5,0O0,OOO.
The Stuyvesant Docks extend from
Louisiana avenue almost to Napoleon
avenue. a distance Of 12 squares. The
wharves between these two points
were covered with miles of trackage,
and steel and iron sheds ran the en-
tire distance.
The two grain elevators were of the
most modern construction, the upper
one having a capacity of a million
bushels. Thousands of bales of cotton,
several hundred thousand packages Of
sugar. great quantities Of cotton seed
oil and oil cake, lumber and every con-
ceivable variety of freight filed the
warehouses and sheds. Practically all
the export business handled by the
Illinois Central was put aboard ships
at these docks.
The fire is said to have resulted from
a journal that had not been sufficiently
oiled. The whole plant was equipped
with gigantic water tanks and fire ex-
tinguishing apparatus, but the blaze
small at the beginning, almost In
stantly got beyond control, communi-
eating through the conveyors to the
lower elevator and some of the sheds.
The response of the fire department
was prompt, but owing to the fact
that the terminals were not readily &C
cessible, because of fences and tracks,
the engines found great difficulty in
reaching the flames. In half an hour
the fire covered two squares, the lower
elevator was practically consumed,
and the fire was sweeping with ire
sistible fury both up and down the
river.
Fortunately Louisiana avenue is a
very broad thoroughfne, and the
further spread of the fire beyond that
point into a residence section was
checked. Between the points named,
however, the flames swept to COM
plete destruction many cottages of
the poorer classes, the occupants in a
great many instances losing all they
possessed.
During the fire a heavy wind blew,
and the blaze was Of indescribable
fury, carrying brands to great dis
tances, driving back the crowds Of
sightseers.

Nelson. OF Chicago, made Young Cor
bett, Of Denver, appear the poorest
tyro at the fighting game, when ne
practically knocked him out in the
middle of the ninth round. In order
tn save their man a complete knock
out the seconds threw up the sponge.
In the early part Of the fight on sew
eral occasions Corbett Strengthened
Nelson up with rights and lefts on the
law but when it came to following up
his advantage his swings were wlld-
He seemed to be over anxious, Whlle
Nelson at all times was cool and con-
fident
In the seventh round, when it ap-
neared as If Corbett were practically
gone. he showed a fash Of his old
time speed and landed several severe
lunches on Nelson's ribs and jaw. It
was only a spurt, however, and Young
Corbett soon lapsed into his semi
groggy condition, which lasted until
the fights end. In the nintN round Mel
son swung his right over the jaw and
Corbett went down on his back. He
remained down and then stood up
against the ropes with his hands low
cred, unable to protect himself. Nell
son partly toppled him over with a
swing on the jaw, but before Corbett
was fairly on the mat his seconds
threw up the sponge.
After the fight was over Corbett had
but very little to say. He had no ex-
cuses to offer. Nelson, of course, was
very happy that his next effort would
be to obtain a fight with Britt, who
has once defeated him.

Allentown, Pa, Murderer Pays Death
Penalty For Killing a Woman.
Allentown, Pa, March 1.-Eugene
Bloch was hanged in the Lehigh coun'
tv Jail yard here for the murder Of
Mrs. Kate Fatzinger in her rooms on
August 6, 1903. Bloch marched to the
gallows unaided. He said nothing on
the scaffold. The body fell six feet
and the neck was broken. Berks coun-
tvs gallows was borrowed for the oc-
easion.
Bloch cut the woman's throat and
afterward attempted suicide. Bloch
dictated a statement to Rev. T. F. Her
man, his spiritual adviser. He stated
that Mrs. Fatzinger cut his throat.
He begged her, he said, to send for a
doctor and to spare his life. He then
said he became unconscious and re-
NAMED so until found. The story diff
fers from his first statement made to
the police, and it is also different from
that he made on the witness stand
during his trial His first story was
that a stranger cut the woman's throat
and assaulted him when he tried ia
defend her.

BRANCH ROAD
Planned For Carson Valley by
the V. & T.

The Virginia & Truekee Railroad Com
pany has corps of engineers In the field
looking for a suitable route up through
Carson Valley. for the branch line.
The surveying party is running lines
and accommodating the necessary data
preliminary to actual building. There
are some three apparently feasible routes
and rights of way and it will take some
time to definitely determine which is the
most favorable.
Upon the completion of their investiga-
tion the company will take the matter up
and consider the advisability of building
the road
territory. 1t would shorten the time re-
quired to get freight into Bode and re-
duce the expense considerably. 1t would
make Carson City the Distributing point
for a territory many hundred miles in
extent
1t would stimulate agriculture and min
ing in Antelope Valley and Alpine county
to a remarkable degree. The road will
touch timber and wood lands also.
1t hardly seems that there can be any
question as TO the profit to accrue TO the
company from the investment and there
certainly is none regarding the benefits
the country will derive from it.
