EARLY MORNING FIRES.
Two i'm Ellsworth Within the Past
Week.

Two i'm Ellsworth Within the Past
Week.
Ellsworth has had two fires within the
past week, both resulting in considerable
damage.
The farm buildings OF Alexander j.
Weaver on the eastern road, beyond the
old fair grounds, were burned about 8
O'Clock last Saturday morning. The fire
apparently started in or near the hennery,
and spread rapidly through the two large
barns, and to the main house. The build
ings were outside the FIRE limits, but the
firemen succeeded in getting water on
them by laying 2,400 feet Of hose. A bull,
two cows, hog and flock of hens and
geese were burned. The horses were
saved. Farming tools, twenty-five tons
of hay and large part of the household
goods were destroyed.
The loss is estimated at 1000. There
was an insurance of less than 5000.
The origin of the fire is unknown, but
the fact that it started near the hennery
gives rise to the theory of hen thieves.
The second fire occurred about 1890
O'Clock this morning at H. E. Davis car
riage factory on Franklin street. The fire
was in the building occupied by the
blacksmith shop on the ground floor,
wood working shop above and storage
room in the attic.
The fire, it is believed, started in the
attic from chimney, and had been
5mouldering several hours, not breaking
out until after midnight, by which time it
had spread through the attic and burned
fiercely as soon as it obtained vent. The
firemen did excellent work, stopping the
fire practically where they found it. The
fire swept the attic and the rear part of
the second floor, but did not reach down
to the blacksmith shop, which was thor
oughly wet down.
The attic was filled with sleighs and
other stock, which are a complete loss,
and there was much stock and jobs in pro-
cess ou the second floor. The loss is esti-
mated at above $1,000, covered by insur-
ance.

Credentials Committee

Roosevelt leaders to substitute a new
list of delegates for those seated in
some of the contest cases, is to be
taken up as the unfinished business.
No Committees were named and
none will be until this motion to
purge" the convention Of "fraudu
lent delegates" is disposed of.
California, under the leadership
of Gov, Hiram Johnson, assumed a
belligerant attitude almost with the
start Of the roll call When the two
Roosevelt delegates from the Fourth
district, unseated by the National
Committee, remained on the floor,
but were not allowed to vote, they
confined their protests to eloquence.
Two votes for Root was the en-
croachment in that state in the vote
for McGoyern. There is prospect of
a bitter struggle tomorrow when the
convention takes up as unfinished
business a motion by Gov. Hadley
of Missouri to substitute ~ ROose-
welt men for Taft delegates.
1t was in precisely this effort to
seat the Roosevelt men that the
whole day was spent in today {
