TO PROTECT AMERICANS,
Cruiser Des Moines and 0unboat EaoIs
Ordered to Port Al Prince.

Washington, March 1.-THE Haytien
situation is described by the state de-
partment officials today as decidedly
more grave than at any other time
since the revolution has been in pro-
gress. Reports received early in the
day are to the effect that the Haytian
government has reversed its decision
to allow the refugees in the foreign
legations to leave the county. They
will not be allowed to do so. s
AS a further protection to American
interests in the island, the cruiser Des
Moines was ordered to proceed at once
to Port Au Prince from Guantanamo.
The gunboat Eagle was dispatched
there yesterday. 1t Is estimated the
Des Moines can make the trip in APP
proximately Is hours. The only in
structions given are that American in
terests shall be protected.
The following is the substance Of the
dispatch from Minister Furniss as Civ
en- out at the state department:

Two Business Blocks at
Newcastle Are Burned.
Worst Fire In Town For Years
INSURANCE Is Small.
4 Good Water Pressure Saves the
Town From Flames.

Damariscotta, Me, March 1.-THE
fire at Newcastle early today was con-
fined to the two business blocks in
which it ragged for several hours 1t
was the worst for 60 years, the loss
being approximately $4,000, with a
comparatively small insurance.
The blocks We're the largest in the
town. One was a three story brick
building occupied by the Newcastle
National Bank, the local Grand Army
Post and the apartments of T. H. Gay,
cashier Of the bank. The other was
two-Story frame structure owned by
Austin Hall and occupied by the store
of Thomas f. Gay & Son and by Mas
sasoit Tribe of Red Men. The fire
started in the Grand Army hall, but
the cause is not known There had
been no one in the hall since Saturday
as far as known.
The bank officials believe the con-
tents of their vault have not been dam
aged. The fire was fought without
outside assistance except from this
town. Excellent water pressure from
the local water works is credited with
saving the town. When the fire broke
out the wind was from the westward
blowing the sparks across the river to
this town, but within an hour it shift
ed to the northward, carrying the
embers down river.
Revised estimates placed the aggre-
gate loss at $4,000 and the insurance
is given as $4,000. The prospect of re-
building is considered slim.
