$1,O0O,000 FIRE IN
 SOUTH BOSTON, VA.
ALL TOBACCO FACTORIES DE- STRoYED-LARGE PLANT OF R. J. REYNOLDS AMONG THE FIRST TO GO.

Danville, March 2S.-A disastrous fire broke out in South Boston, Va, thirty two miles northeast of here, late this aft tobacco factories and other buildings, threatened the destruction of the entire town, and entailed a loss estimated va riously up to $1,OOOOOO.
 The large plant of the R. J. Reynolds Tobacco company was among the first buildings destroyed. The flames spread to other tobacco factories and other build ines, including the telephone exchange, which was located at quite distance from the tobacco section, and they were destroyed. Apepals for assistance were telegraphed to this city and to Durham, N. c.
 The fire department of this city left promptly for South Boston on train over the Southern railway. Meantime the confagration was spreading, and a mes sage received here at 103O o'clock to- night stated that all of the tobacco dis trict and d large section of the business district had been destroyed.
 At 9:30 o'clock the fire was still burn ing but under control.
 South Boston is the Junction of the Southern and the Norfolk and Western railroads. and its population at the last census was 10,S51.
 The. fire broke out at 2:30 o'clock this afternoon in the steam tobacco factory of the Reynolds company, and was caused by a mishap to one of the drying ma chimes In a short time the building. a four-story structure, was in flames. The fire then extended to the storage ware house of the Reynolds company, three story building, in which was stored hun dreds of lhogsheads of tobacco, valued at about $l0O,0O0 or more. Extending from the Reynolds factory the fire burned the storage house of the H. A. Thomas Lum- Der company, the factory of George A. Lea & Co of Danville, and the storage warehouse of T. 5. Johnson.
 Many other buildings and most of their contents were destroyed.

Andrew Carnegie Says Specu-
 Iai0rs Are Parasites
FEW M|LuONAIRES LAUGH
Tells of His Life annd Says Business Men Should Refuse to Recognize Men Who Make Money
 Gambling

New York, March 2S.-Andrew Carnegie made a vigorous attack upon certain Wall street methods in a speech at a dinner given in his honor by the United States Military Telegraph corps at the Hotel tonight. MT. Carnegie declared that he had never made dollar gamb- ling in stocks, and added that it was time that business men declined to recog- nize men who make money in Wall street, and render no value for 1t.
 "A few gamblers in Wall street are in trouble,' said MT. Carnegie If a man has sold stocks short and they go down, he is delighted. But if they go the other way, and he has not the stocks to de- liver, he thinks the President has gone a trifie too far. It is a good thing for the country that the gamblers have come to grief. l wish could invent a system or plan whereby both sides of the stock gamblers would come to grief. As q bus mess man l can say I never made a dol lar gambling in stocks, and I would as soon sit down to gambling by cards. Let me speak as a plain business man. Wall street is not all of America, and there are some places in New York even that are not Wall street. The speculators are parasites feeding upon values and creat- ing none. It Is time that we business men should rise and decline to recognize men who make money in this way, and ren- der no value for 1t, and give nothng-or manufacture nothing-or exchange in no way value for what they get.
 We have had five years of wonderful prosperity. Today instead of charging S460, 1000 for the Carnegie Steel company would ask $640 0,000 for it. But never kite went up but it came down. Wall street Is really in a healthy condition. not going in, and let us dejoice and hope that tomorrow prices will go down.

SaIvador's Hostility.

San Salvador, March 28.-The official organ of the government in setting forth yesterday the reasons for Salvador mak- ing common cause with Honduras against Nicaragua said:
 'The opponents of the government of Salvador were encouraged by the condi- tional assistance offered to them by Pres ident Zelaya of Nicaragua Salvador saw in this move on the part of Nicaragua a serious menace to the tranquility of Sal- vador, and sympathized with Honduras the opponents of whose government were encouraged in the same manner during the difficulties with Honduras and Qua temala. Salvador, therefore, thought the moment opportune to take its place in the opposition to the policy of Nicaragua" '"

New York. March 2S.-Harry K.

NOT TIME FOR PEACE

Washington, March 2s.-The moment has not yet arrived when America and Mex leo can intervene to stop the spread of war in Central America. This was the decision arrived $ the result of a conference between Secretary Root and Ambassador Greet at the state department today. The Secretary also had the benefit of the advices received by the diplomatic representatives of the Central American states from their own governments.
 The absence of definite information from the seat of trouble is embarrassing to the officials who are desirous of bringing about peace. It is feared that the collapse of the Bonilla government in Honduras and the consequent installation of the provisional government in accord with that of Nicaragua will result in a combined at tack by them upon other Central American republics. This apprehension of such movement has greatly alarmed all of the other states. and 1t is said that Cen tral America, after an unusually long term of peace, is being rapidly turned into a armed camp in readiness to repel attack fro many quarter
 It is said there Is no disposition on the part of this government to act the part of policeman toward those sister re- publlcs, but 1t would welcome any proper opportunity to restore peace.
