MILTON HAS BAD FIRE.
Four Large Buildings Destroyed, Caus-
ing $1,000 Loss.

ing $1,000 Loss.
Milton, Oct 1S.-The worst hre IN
the history Of Milton occurred here
when the Touring mill, grain house, ice
house and creamery buildings were
entirely destroyed. The fire originated
in the mill building, which was ablaze
on the inside before 1t was discovered.
It rapidly spread to the adjacent
buildings. The fire company quickly
responded with the engine, but were
unable to check the flames.
The mill building was owned by Q.
Carder and T. H. Dye. and the ma
chinery was owned by G. s. Craven
and P. G. Carder. In this building
were stored about $1,000 worth OF
handles, belonging to the handle fac
tory.
There was little insurance carried,
and the total loss will be about ST.
900, which is the greatest loss Milton
has ever suffered from fire. Had the
wind been blowing hard, the loss would
have been greater.

Situation Under Control,

New York, Oct. 1s.-A special meet
ing Of the clearing house committee
was held this morning to consider the
general banking situation. The sol-
vency Of the Mercantile National Bank
as reported last night, was reaffirmed.
1t is understood the condition of eer-
tain other banks in the city was dis-
cussed at the meeting, but as far AZ
could be learned, no definite action
with regard to these institutions was
taken up. To quote a representative
clearing house, '"The situation is now
under control and no untoward devel-
opments are looked for" In conversa-
tive circles the feeling prevails that
certain other interest will have to be
eliminated before complete confidence
in the local banking situation can be
restored. It is believed the retirement
of F. Augustus Heinze from the pres
idency Of the Mercantile National wiz
be followed by the retirement OF 9th r
persons from other banks.
