P OPRIET0R FRUIT STORES
SHOT BY A HIGHWAYMAN
Nick Mackers, Conducting
Store at Corner of Garden
and Spring, Shot by Young
White Man When He Fail
ed to Throw Up His Hands
When Commanded.

When Nick Mackers, a Greek, pro-
prietor of a store at the corner or
Spring and Garden streets, failed to
throw up his hands at the command OF
a highwayman last night, he received
a bullet in the back, but it is not
thought that his wound will prove
fatal. There were two other GreRs in
the store at the time, but they became
so excited when the shot was fired thai
they were una BILE to tell the police in
what direction the would-be robber
went after the shot was fired. The
Greeks say that the party who did the
shooting is a young white man, about
% years of age. ard that they believe
they would recognize him if they saw
him { ain. Officers went to the store
after Mackers was
wounded, but the man who fired the
shot has not yet been arrested.
According to the three Greeks state
ments. the young man stood on the
sidewalk in front OF the store and
with a drawn revolver demanded them
to throw up their hands, but all Of
them except one obcved. The three
Greeks were at different places in the
ton and the other two up toward the
front.
When the man outside told them to
hold up their hands. one of the Creeks
asked him what he meant, and he re-
piled that he meant business At this
toward the man, one Of the other
Greeks made an effort to raise his
hands. but the third one says he does
not remember what he was doing at
this time. according to the report
made by the police. AS Mackers
turned. the man on the sidewalk fired.
the bullet striking him in the back
entering a little above the kidneys He
was carried to the Pensacola sanitar-
iurn, where he was attended by City
Mobiles
The man who fired the shot did not
to enter the store after he
wounded Mackers, but immediately
left the scene. He called at the store
about 10 O'Clock.

MARIANNA HAS
FIRE DAMAGE
ABOUT $4,000
Stock of NJ. L. Dekle & Co.,
Ruined by Water, But the
Fine Building is Saved by
Hard Work of Firemen.
SPECIAL 70 THE JOURNAL.

Mariana, Dec. 10.-Fire, which orig
mated on the second floor of the NJ. L.
Del<le building, this morning about I
o'clock. did damage estimated at be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000. The FIRE
started on the second floor IN the offlce
OCCUPIED by the NJ & B. railroad and
DR.. T. S. King.
Night Marshal Hampton discovered
the fire and he at once gave the alarm,
the blowing of the wild cat" whistle
calling out the citizens as well as the
firemen.
BY hard work the fire was con-
about an hour and half hard work it
was thought everything was safe. but
about 5 o'clock the alarm was again
sounded as the fire had broken out
again. but this time it was soon exttn-
guished.
The offices of the NJ & B railroad
were gutted and what escaped fire was
ruined by water. Everything was a.
total loss and no insurance, but this
morning 1t was impossible to secure an
estimate OF finarciaI loss from Super
intendent Franklin.
The contents OF one room OF DIR.
Kings dental parlors were total loss,
but he is out OF the city and ro+h ng
can be learned as to amount of damage
or insurance.
IT, Nei-1e Co. carrvlro a S*net
of about $4,000 in ary goods, iad'es
furnishings. etc. occupied the fist
floor, but the ffremen by hard work
confined the FIRE to the UPPER part of
the building. but their stock is ruined
from water. and 1t is a conserved tive es-
innate that the entire loss will be at
least $50 600 or $25, ,000
The origin of the fire Is a mystery,
but prompt action Of the 1remen saved
the entire block from gong. as north

toward the other part of the block.

FAKE PERPETRATED.

Washington, Dec. 1o.-Suspicion that
fake wireless messages may have been
sent out by some amateur. reporting
disaster on the steamer Rio Crande has
led the bureau of navigation Of the de-
partment Of commerce to start an in
vestigation. The penalty is fine or i'm
prisonment or both. The messages
were received at New York and Nor
folk Sunday night telling of fire aboard
the Rio Grande and saying 1877 pas
sengers had been taken OF the vessel
and later returned.
The dispatches, read by many wire
less operators about Virginia Capes,
were transmitted to the revenue cut
ter service which Immediately rushed
two cutters to sea and later called
them back after communicating with
the Rio Grande herself and being as
sured she was in no need of aid. A
confusion of ships names also per-
pleyed would-be rescuers. The dis
patches said the Rio Grande's passen-
gers were taken off by the steamer
Swanmore. which was at that moment
at her wharf in Baltimore The res
cuers then raised the Merchant and

might be the rescuing ship, but her
