day Afternoon from 2 to S.
Costly Presents Will Be Given
Away with Lavish Hand. r..
BATTERY B BAND TO PLAY
ALL AFTERNOONN.

Owing to the terrific rainstorm Mon
day and the continued wet of Tuesday,
people DESTROYS Of buying lots in Walton
Park naturally found it difficult to graf
ify themselves, with any degree Of com
fort. Terrific pressure has been
brought to bear upon Mr.. Walton to
continue the sale, and he has at last de-
eided to have another auction of lots
in Walton Park Saturday afternoon of
this week at 2 O'Clock. Last Saturday
crowd Of about 800 people were
present, and seventeen lots were sold in
all, on Aldrich and Bryant avenues,
Thirty seventh avenues. Saturday this
week the sale will take place at the cor
ner Of Emerson and Thirty-seventh
avenues. The streetcar company
have decided to extend the Cedar and
Emerson avenue line to Thirty-sixth
and Fremont, SO that the lots that will
be sold on Saturday afternoon will be
largely Immediately around the stop
ping place Of the streetcar. Beauti-
giant articles of jewelry, gold watches,
silver tea sets, and silver spoons will be
given away as heretofore at the Walton
auctions to those present on the
grounds. The Walton company bought
LAO silver souvenir spoons for this
auction, and have between GOO and 700
of them still left to give away. There
is one good thing always about Mr..
Walton 8 ideas, and that is if man
gets out Of work his payments are al
ways carried and every effort is made to
get him a job. IF he has sickness in
his family also the payments are al
lowed to run over for while. Battery
B band has been engaged to play stir
ring martial tunes all the afternoon, and
if the weather is fine everybody should
thoroly enjoy themselves, and those
people who wanted to buy last week
will have an opportunity to invest

MILLION GOES
UP IN SMOKE

Moncton, N, b., Feb. 24.-The Ca
madam government sustained loss of
one million dollars by fire which de-
stroyed practically the entire plant
here of the Intercolonial railway in
this city tonight The financial loss Is
the greatest caused by fire in this
province since the conflagration which
obliterated the business section Of St.
John i'm 1877.
The Intercoonial railway Is owned
by the government and the headquar-
ters Of the entire system are located
in this city. More than one thousand
persons are thrown out Of employment
and the officials of the road stated
that the system will be badly hamper
ed for many months as the result of
the fire.
More than 100 passenger coaches
and freight cars in the shops and on
sldings and large amount Of costly
machinery in the buildings were de-
stroyed. One of the coaches burned
was the private car of Earl Grey, gov
ernor general of Canada.
The station and the large general
offices of the railroad were saved.

Since the discovery of the crime and

and as all trace of him had been lost
in Helena, Mont, where his cousin,
Arthur Strong, who accompanied him
on his flight, deserted him on Thanks
giving day, the police Of this city had
practically abandoned the search and
expressed the belief that he left the
country. He walked into headquar-

car accidents in which forty people
We're seriously injured three of whom
will die, occurred this evening a few
miles above this city on the Millvale

One car left the tracks near Bennett,

bankment, injuring 80 passengers
while the second car was suddenly de-
rallied opposite the Rising Sun hotel
located a mile below Bonnet, Pa, go-
ing over a 10 foot embankment and
hurting ten of the IL occupants. That
many people were not killed outright
Is considered miraculous, as both cars
were demolished as a result Of the ter
rifle impact when they struck the
tracks of the Baltimore and Ohio rail-
road, which runs parallel below the
street car tracks.

smoIseless FueI for NAVY.

Washington, Feb. 24.-Smokeless
fuel is subject Of deep interest la
naval circles at this time. Import
ance attaches TO such an article on
account OF its contribution to the Sc
crecy Of naval operations by means OF
inviability. It has become an inn
portant requirement that there shall
be MS little attention as possible at
tracted TO naval ships In operation IN
time OF war. and II is for that reason
that the deadest kind OF paint Is used
on the hulls OF vessels. and that
smokeless powder has been adopted
for the ammunition. with the dense
smoke which pours from some Of the
tunnels II is easy enough to locate a
ship under way, in addition 10 which
smoke OF that kind, when ships are In
fleet formation, obscures signals dis
played and might lead to confusion II
not disaster. Naturally. under such
circumstances any prospect OF obtaln-
Ing a fuel which.do not emit smoke
will be OF importance. The tests
which have been conducted under the
naval bureau OF equipment have
promised important results. but they
have not gone far enough yet to lead
TO any final conclusions.

eral A. w. Greedy, recently promoted,
has been assigned to the command Of

at San Francisco, pending the return
to the United States of Major General

General Greely to the command Of
the southwestern division. with head
