The great Leland hotel in Saratoga, Xew York, is in ashes, the flames lapping it up in the course of about fifteen minutes; in connection with the fire there were some horrible and most exciting scenes, some six or seven of the sleeping inmates losing their lives, and many making escapes Of a truly wonderful character; many lives were saved by the daring heroism of a fire man and a boy employed in the hotel; the property loss is over two hundred thousand dollars. William O'Brien and John Dillon, who landed at Cher bourg on Wednesday, reached Paris yesterday mornnii The funeral of the late ex-Secretary of War, William V. lielknap. took place yesterday at St. John's Episcopal Church in Wash ington: his remains were interred in Arlington National Cemetery, in ground tendered for the purpose by the War Department. - The South Carolina negroes were in convention yesterday at Columbia, to consider the political situation and determine as to what ticket now before the people should be supported by the colored race; there was a great diversity of sentiment, and the proceedings were of a very noisy character, but it was finally decided that trie Haskell ticket should be supported. Paymaster Geo. A. Deering, of the N ie.. was found dead in his bed yes leidav morning at his home in Wash ington city; his death was due to heart disease. The Hamburg-American i, ;e steamer Columbia has beat her nx: record, the fastest, in a voyage :n N'ew York to Southampton; the t: . : was made in six days fifteen hours : twenty minutes. The sugar pi inters of Cuba have decided to peti tiun tor reciprocity with the United States. A terrible northeast gale prevailed yesterday alony the coasts of Hnglaud and Wales, and it is feared there will be many wrecks. The luaerai services over the remains of late Justice Miller, of the Supreme Court, to place yesterday afternoon in the supreme Court chamber; the burial ser vices were rud by Rev.

Mr. Balfour is now hunting around for the man or men who helped Dil lon and O'Bnerrto skip into France. The silk operatives in Patterson, N. J., are threatening a strike, in consequence of a reduction of wages following the passage of the Mc Kinlev bill. One of the industries that the McKinley bill will probably start up with vigor is the smuggling indus try. With the present high duties there's lots of money in it. Gen. Draper, President of the New England Home Market Club, and a great cotton goods manufacturer, is such a believer in the home market that he imports all the machinery for his mills from England. The probabilities are that if Sup erintent Porter had sent his census takers out with instructions to be honest and diligent, they might have found about two millions more peo ple in this country than they did. T he St. Louis Gobe-Democrat, Republican, charges that Chauncey I- Filley, the St. Louis Republican boss, demanded and received $6,000 for the nomination of Dr. McLean, for Congress. This. is proof positive that Filley's orthodox Republicanism !s beyond question. Mr. McKinley brags about his tariff bill because he says it puts so raany things on the free list, and gives more free trade than any other tariff bill ever did. And here they have been abusing the Democrats as very naughty people, free traders, for trying to put "some things on the free list and reduce the tax on others. VOL. XLVH.-NO. 25. The most heartless Dair of hrntc that we have read of for some, time was a rich old scoundrel and his wife who went before a Brooklyn justice a few days ago and applied for a writ to eject their widowed daughter, who with her children occupied , an upper room in one of their tenement houses, and was unable to pay the rent when demanded. They got it, too, and refused to give her more then two days to get out. In the disposition of Providence how do people like that manage to keep but of the way of dead telegraph wires, falling buildings, or something of that sort, which some times kill hu man beings? A Western Republican contempo rary remarks that Gov. Campbell, of Ohio, "occupies the anomalous posi tion of appealing to the Republicans to help him in his fight against cor ruptionists in his own party." The Republican Governor who would ap peal to the Democrats to help him to fight the corruptionists in his own party would occupy a still more anomalous position. They don't do that kind of fighting. A contemporary remarks that when Democratic papers discourse on the fact that the Democrats in Maine made gains in every district but Reed's, they are unwittingly showing that he is very popular. Not neces sarily. It may only show that there was more boodle expended in Reed's district than In the others. President Harrison is said to be very much mortified at the scandals in the Pension office. The Pension office is a place where Raum's re frigerators can be turned to good use, to prevent mortification from spreading through the whole she bang. Chicago is about to erect what she claims will be the largest building in the world" devoted to one establish ment. It will be a retail store, cov ering half a block, sixteen stories high, to cost three million dollars, and built mainly of iron and steel. SenatorHoar speaks of the late census as a "wonderful record." Won derful indeed. In its gross frauds and inaccuracies it is one of the ven ders of the age. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
