NAVY SIGN TO HODGES
Governor Given Casting Insignia q
Only Inland Harbor.

The navy yard sign which decor-
ated the entrance to the confederate
harbor at Charlotte. N. c.. during tho
Civil war. was today presented to Gov
ernor Hodges by II. v. Rice, q former
resident of Fort Scott. The large cast
ing. used as the Official insignia Of the
only inland harbor in the world, will
placed in his private Office in the state
house.
During the Civil war. following the
battle between the Merrimac and
Monitor. the Norfolk navy yards were
transferred to Charlotte, N. C., 1855
miles from the nearest seaport The
big casting sent to the governor orna-
mented the arch entrance to the
Charlotte navy yards.
Writing to w. E. Brooks, chairman
OF the state board of control, and
through whom Rice made the presen-
tation, the donor said:
This casting Is genuine curiosity
in the way of a relic OF the late war
between the states. After the battle
! between the Merrimac and the Monf-
tor, the south could not hold the navy
yards at Norfolk and the navy yards
strange as it may seem-were load
ed on the railroad aid moved to
Charlotte. where they were MAIN
tanned for eighteen months as actual
operating navy yards.
Thts Is the only navy yard in the
world OF Of stream and 1876 miles
from sea. Charlotte, as you know, is
|: not on any river or stream and there
is no river in ten miles Of the town.
Yet the navy yard was maintained In
Charlotte within three blocks Of our
ONCE from where I am writing this
letter. The casting which / am send
ing you is the navy yard sign made By
the confederate government and or
namented the large archway over the
, entrance to this navy yard"

FIRE LOSS 100000.
Combgstion Of Nitrate Of SODA Starts
Fire IN Chemical Works.

st. Louis. June 11.-Fire that started
in the ether house of the Mallinckroot
chemical works early this morning
caused damage to the plant estimated
at 100000. Combustion of nitrate Of
soda was the cause, according to Of
ficials. The hremen were greatly handi-
capped by nauseous fumes from the
burning chemicals and from the danger
of further explosions which at one time
threatened to destroy the entire plant
which covers more than an entire city
block and is valued at a million dol
lars. At 6 O'Clock the fire was under
control.
When Edward Mallinclrodt, president
OF the company. reached the scene he
demanded Chief Swingley withdraw all
firemen from the buildings. because of
the danger OF further explosions. A
few minutes after the men had left the
danger zone an explosion tore away the
walls of the ether house, hurtling burn
ing debris through the air for great dis
tances. No one was injured.
