Eighty men are reported to have been burned to death in a forest fire 1n Penn sylvania; they were going to fight the fire on a train which was wrecked in the burning woods. Five masked men robbed the express car on the Santa Fe Railroad. Gladstone is said to be seriously sick. The U. S. cruiser Charleston sailed Saturday in pursuit of the Chilian steamer Itata.

Within the past six months, not withstanding the high price of Gov ernment bonds, 104 new national banks were started in this country, of which thirty-three were in South ern States. This looks as if the national bank system had come to stav. Kaiser William rises to remark "I alone am master in this country." If reports be true the lady who pre sides over his domestic department wants it distinctly understood that be can't boss her, and if other re ports be true about the incoherent speeches he utters at dinner parties sometimes it would seem that the young man isn't master of himself. A few days ago William Shakes peare was arrested at a railroad station in New York charged with petty larceny, with appropriating io his own use without permission some little things that belonged to a fel low passenger on a train, this effect ually disposes of the contention of that Detroit cypher man who main tained that Bacon murdered Shakes peare.

KILEY- Died Yesterday, of Consumption, in New- York City. A telegram irom Capt. Fred. Pen nington, of the steamship Fanita, an nounced the death of Mr. Pharon E. Kiley, of this city, in New York yester day forenoon. After a brave struggle, he fell a victim to that insidious disease, consumption, from which he had been a great sufferer for many, months. Mr. Kiley had been a citizen 01 Wil mington several years, being first em ployed as manager of the Atlantic Coast Line dining rooms, next as assistant to Mr. T. E. Wallace at the Gem saloon and restaurant, and latterly becoming proprieter of that establishment. He ied young, being only 31 years of age. Early in 1890 he man ied a young lady of excellent family, of Portage, Wiscon sin, who, with one child, survives him, He was a member of the Wilmington Light Infantry and of Clarendon Lodge, Knights of Pythias, and was very popular in both organizations. "Pete" Kiley was a man who possessed many ex- excellent traits of character. He was honest, patient, generous, and always true to that large circle of friends who now sincerely mourn his loss. As a husband he was tender and affectionate, and his brief married life was character ized by all that can make domestic life joyous and happy. Efforts were made by the members of Clarendon Lodge K. of P. last night to communicate with members of the order in Few York by telegraph, but up to a late hour they had been unable to do so. The Foundling. The female infant left at the house of a colored woman on Second street, be tween Market and Princess, (as reported in the Star) was, on investigation yes terday, found to be the child of a young woman who left the City Hospital where the child was born last Friday. It was identified by the matron and nurses at the hospital. The young woman was acccompanied by a man whose name was given as Combie, from Stokes county. The man remained with the woman du ring her stay at the hospital, and they left together, taking the child with them. Mr. and Mrs. J. P. Flynn, living on Fourth street, over the railroad, made application yesterday for the child to the Clerk of the Superior Court, who has power, under the law, to dispose of it. - If the parties who have thus heart lessly abandoned their infant were ap prehended, there is no provision under the law for their punishment.' : i "1.11 WILMINGTON, N.

Patterson Decoration of Graves, Etc. May the 10th Memorial Day was celebrated in this city, under the auspices of the Ladies' Memorial Asso ciation, by services in every way in keeping with the Sabbath. There was a very large attendance, and a more orderly and decorous assemblage never gathered in the beautiful cemetery at Oakdale, where the ceremonies were held. The Wilmington Light Infantry, with colors draped; marched out to the Ceme tery to the tap of the drum, with twenty nine officers and men under command of Lieut. Duval French, and preceded by Col. Jones of the Second Regiment and members of his staff. A procession was formed at the Lodge in the Ceme tery, under direction of Col. Jno. L. Cantwell, Chief Marshal, and marched to the Confederate Monument where promptly at 5 o'clock, the hour appointed, the services began. On the the stand, which was tastily draped with gray moss and small Confederate flags, were Bishop Watson, Rev. George Patterson, D. D., Rev. Dr. Carmichael, Rev. Mr. Strange, Rev. Mr. Skinner, Mayor Ricaud and Mr. E. S. Martin. The choir occupied a stand on the north side of the enclosure frenting the stand occupied by the ministers, and was under thedirection of Mr. H. M. Bowden, withJMr. E. P. Boatwright organist, and Messrs. E. Craft and F. R. Hawes cornetists. The other members of the'choir were Messrs. R. H. Grant, Wm.'CarrTU. M. Robinson, W. W. Hodges and T. H. Thompson. The services were opened with a fer vent and touching prayer by the Chap lain, Rev. Jas. Carmichael, D. D., after which the choir rendered most beauti fully that exquisite hymn, "Lord, Make Me to Know Mine End." Rev. George Patterson, D. D., was then introduced by Mr.'E. S. Martin. Mr. Patterson, who, for many years was rector of St. John's Church, in this city and during the war was Chaplain of the Third N. C. Infantry, "expressed his gratitude to the ladies of the Memorial Association for bringing him to the city, and then, in a sermon of some thirty five minutes held the attention of his hearers with an admirable discourse, well suited to the day and the occasion. The Star would have been glad to give the sermon in full to its readers, but the reverend gentlemau declined to furnish it for publication. After the services, the choir sang "For a Season Called to Part, Till We Meet Again," and then Mr. E. S, Martin read the roll of honor. A hymn was then sung, after which the floral offer ings were laid upon the mound, the benediction was pronounced by Bishop Watson and the congregation dismissed. The mound was adorned with wreaths of laurel -and small Confederate flags, and the bronze figure of a Confederate soldier on the monument held aloft the battle-flag of the Third N. C. infantry. Another historic flag displayed time worn and battle-stained but carefully cherished and preserved, was the colors of the Rutledge Mounted Riflemen, of South Carolina. After the conclusion of the exercises the Light Infantry fired three volleys over the mound and the ceremonies were at an end. GOODIFOR WILMINGTON. A Steamship Crosses Cape Fear Bar Draw ing Twenty Feet and Ten Inches. The Star calls the attention of all its contemporaries that feel an interest in Wilmington to the fact that the steam ship El Monte, referred to elsewhere in this department of the Star, crossed Cape Fear bai, yesterday, drawing twenty feet'and ten inches. This is something of which Wilming ton has reason to feel proud. Like wise, Capt. W. H. Bixby, the accom plished engineer in charge of our river and harbor improvements. It shows what progress has been made in the work of making Wilmington one of the best of the South Atlantic ports, and augurs well for her future as a commercial metropolis. This important item, in connection with the facts concerning the cotton fire on the El Monte, was yesterday telegraphed by Mr. W. H. Bernard, the Wilmington agent of the New York Associated Press, to headquarters in Washington, from which point it will be distributed throughout the country. Memorial Celebration at Cronly. Col. E. D. Hall deliyered a fine me morial address at Cronly last Saturday. There was a large gathering of the peo ple from the surrounding country. The exercises were held in a grove near the church, and after these were concluded a procession was formed under the di rection of the Marshal, the "roll of hon or was called and flowers were placee on the mound in the church yard.

A dispatch from the Signal officer at Southport received at the Star office yesterday morning, reported that the steamer El Monte, of the Southern Development Co., Philadelphia, from New Orleans, with a cargo of cotton for New York, had put into Southport at 9 o'clock yesterday morning, on ac count of her cargo having been on fire. When the ship was about one hundred miles south of Southport fire was dis covered among the cotton, between the upper decks and bunkers. The cotton was flooded and the ship headed for Southport. The fire was apparently un der control. As soon as the steamer anchored opposite Southport, the work of taking out " the damaged cotton was began, and at the time the steamer Wilmington left for this city, about three hundred bales, badly charred, had been taken out and placed on a lighter alongside. Capt. R. B. Quick, master of the steamer, telegraphed.MessrsGeo. Harriss, Son & Co., of this city, that he needed no assistance. The El Monte has no passengers; she is a large foiy-masted steamer, registers"' 2562 tons, and j came over the bar drawing twenty feet and ten inches, on a moderate tide. The steam tug Marie which went down yesterday to render assistance, if needed returned last nhgt. , She brought reports that the cargo was still on fire, but Capt. Quick though the could man age it, and refused offers of aid. MEMORIAL CELEBRATION At Fayetteville Yesterday Address by Major T. D. Love, of Wilmington. A dispatch to the Star from Fayette ville says the Memorial celebration there yesterday was one of the most imposing ones ever held in Fayetteville, in spite of the heat and dust. Thousands were in the line of march. Capt. John H. Robinson was chief marshal. Major T. D. Love spoke to an immense crowd at the cemetery. He was introduced by Capt. E. J. Edwards, an old veteran. The opening prayer was made by Rev. W. H. Moore, of Hay Street Methodist Church. Major Love's speech was ad mirable; dignified, entirely Southern, but untinged with bitterness. Among the distinguished persons on the stand were Judge Armheld and Gen. LeDuc, Commissioner of Agriculture under President Hayes. The military was fine, music excellent and floral deco rations superb. The New York Produce Market. G. S. Palmer, commission merchant, New York, quotes prices for truck in that market May 9th as follows: The market on N. C. strawberries has been rather dull during the past few dsys, owing to cool weather and heavy receipts from Charleston and Norfolk, but with warmer weather we look for an active demand at improved prices; selling to-day, N.

Ground-pea planters say the crop is severely injured by the recent cold weather and frosts, and rice planters re port rice also damaged, and that the crop on the Cape Fear will be short of that of last year's; caused by the late season and cold weather.

H. Gannon. The Charleston News and Courier says Capt. Peter Taglio has beea nominated as successor of Capt. W. H. Gannon, for U. S. inspector of boilers for this dis trict. The News adds : Capt. Gannon has held the position of inspector for several years and has always discharged the duties of the office with the greatest satisfaction to all parties interested. His removal was peremptorily ordered by the Depart ment in Washington purely fbr political reasons, and was enforced, in spite of the earnest recommendations of higher omcials in the service, who had for a long time been connected with him in business and who knew his value. Capt. Gannon was too good a Demo crat to suit the present Administration, but he will in all probability be rein stated by President Cleveland year after next. COUNTY CONTRACTS Will the County Commissioners or the School Committee answer a few questions for the benefit of interested taxpayers? Have the officers of a county the right to award county contracts to any one without first advertising for bias in some public way? When notice for bids has been made, setting forth all conditions of the contract, &c, have said officers the right to ignore a bid made by a perfectly competent and re sponsible party, one who could give a good bond for the faithful performance of the work to be Jgiven out? Have said omcers the right toaward the work to a party at a much higher price, not allowing the taxpayers to know any of the bids, nor why the contract was awarded to the highest? No notice was given to the other bidders, although they were requested to make bids. Why was the public not informed or some ex planation given for awarding the con tract to the highest bidder? Why were not the other contractors notihed of their acts and the cause of their being right ed, and the work given to the highest bidder? Taxpayers cannotafford to lose $50o or $600 on one contract without an explanation of the cause. Will the Proper officers answer the above ques tions and oblige. A. B. Cooke. IN MEMOBIAM.
