Sometime during Saturday night the
top of the north chimney on the west
side of the X. w. SouIe building was
either Knocked off or blown off by the
wind and fell to the platform of the
Maine Central station. AS the chimney
WIS topped with a slate cap which was
said to have weighed nearly 100 pounds.
it would hardly seem as if such wind as
was blowing Saturday night would
have blown it off, and a possible cause
fer the falling of the slate and bricks
may have been two telegraph or telc-
phone wires which pass close to the top
of the chimney.

MRS. YERKES WAS
 HAPPILY MARRIED
All Doubts About the Matter Set at Rest By the Filing of the
 Marriage Certificate.

New York, February 2.-Doubt as to the marriage of Mrs. Charles T. YerlSes to Wilson Mizner was set at rest today by the filing of the certificates of tine marriage with the bureau of vital statis- ties. In addition, one newspaper quotes Mrs. Yerlles in confirmation, According to this paper Mrs Yerkes said today;
 "All l can say is that l am happily married"
 Wilson Mizner left his hotel today and with his baggage drove to the Yerkes home on Fifth avenue.
 The Rev. Andrew Gillles. who perform cd the marriage ceremony said today. There is one phase of the marriage that l wish to enlighten the public about in view of the fact that 1t has been insin- uated from certain quarters that the ceremony was the result of d plot. In the first place I have been a minister for more than ten years and my reputation assures my friends that I would not take part in any religious or civil ceremony that was not entirely regular
 Tt is absurd 10 say that either of the contracting parties was in no condition to know what was transpring. Mrs Yerlkes was entirely herself. She was self possessed, entered with zest Into the spirit of the occasion and answered all questions without the slightest hesita- ton.

FIRE ON BIG LIGHTER
 LADEN WITH DYNAMITE
Dancers at Casino Ball Are Thrown Into a Panic By Two
 Small Explosions.

New York February 3.-Shortly before o'clock this morning the United States lighter Hudson having on board about 800 pounds of dynamite, and which was anchored on the Manhattan side of the Harlem river, almost under the central bridge, took fire. Soon after the fire started two explosions occurred on board.
 They were slight, however, and appar- ently did not affect the main cargo. An alarm was sent in and several fire en- zines and two fire boats responded The lighter was anchored directly in the rear of the Manhattan Casino, which was crowded this morning with men and wo- men attending ball. When the explo- sion occurred there was Il panic in the place. Police reserves were called and managed to restore order In the Casino, and drove the crowds from the water front and back from danger.
 As soon as the fire was discovered the engineer of the lighter, whose name could not be learned this morning. ran down into the hold where the dynamite was stored and began to throw the explosive overheard In all there was three hundred pounds on board. He had got all but about fifty pounds off the vessel when the fire drove him from the work. The engineer then rushed to the deck but by this time some one had cut the cables and the vessel was drifting out into the stream. It is supposed the engineer jump ed overboard Further trace of him could not be found early this morning
 Blazing fiercely the lighter drifted out
 into midstream when in about five min utes there was a terrific explosion and the vessel sank immediately.
