It to said at the State Department
; that the rartoa pabUcatioas which

the treaty are all erruaaoeous aad coo
fetural. tbasih. la view of the rsthrr

of the psrpoM of the aecotiatlons, it
has heea maihli by the aae of the text
of the first treaty to cuaatract one
similar la geaeral Krat to the hi
convention.
The priactpal poiat of difference be
tween the n?w sal the failed treaty
is the withdrawal of Great Britain
from the Joint gwaraatee of the neb
treaty of the canal, thus leaving the
Tailed Stat-* the sole guaraator. The
cXcistoa of the old provision respect
ing the right to iottify the eaaal leaves
that right by iafereace optloaal with

to const rwet a canal.
Nothing naore rtmalua to be dona
as far aa thto treaty to concerned be
fore the Seaate ntrla. or Indeed un
til the treaty shall have heea ratified,
rejected or auaeaded. If it should be
ratified, the State Department will

be replaced by more modern pro
visions.
There was ao particular ceremony

A dispatch from Chariotts Tuesday
morning says:
Fire which broke out at I:4* o'clock
In the dry goods store of Oglesby
Brothers on Baat Trade street to still
radag at thto hour—a o'cloch—aad
threatens to destroy the major part of.
If not all. of the block betweea Col
lege street aad the railroad.
The cause of the fire Is a mystery. A
policeman and several other persons
who happened to be ap lata aaw a
dense volume of amoke comlag out of
the rear of Oglesby Brother's store,
aad the alarm waa given. The fire de
partments responded with unusual
quickness, but before they had arrived
at the scene of the fire the flames had
broken through the top of the building
and were gutting the Inaer part of the
store.
The location of the fire rendered a
fight against it a matter of great dif
ficulty. Oglesby Brothers' store to In a
brick building two doom from the
corner on College street, aad the alley
I nthe rear waa too small to allow the
firemen to go la and fight the Same*
directly and la the most effective ray.
Strong streams played' incessantly
from College street, and from n««i
Trade, but the fire gained. After
the first half aa hour It seemed for a
short while as if the firemen would win
victory, but the flnmes. which for a few
Minutes appeared to be hidden under
black smoke, burst forth with wonder
ful vigor, climbed to the top of the
building again and broke out nt the
front of the store.
The fire*, spread with a furious
strength. Within the first half hour a
large crowd of people had gathered,
and these included owners of stores
adjoining the building, as well as
owners of other property la the toa
mediate vicinity. Despite the great
number of people, no effort, or but lit
tle, was made to save the goods tnsido
the stores. The flames were 100 fir roe
for that.
From top to bottom' Oglesbjr Broth
ers' store was a complete lon. and then
ithe large grorety store of H. G. Link,
"which Is one door above and In the
satne building, fell victim to the
flames. It fared the same fate as the
first store, and out ot the wreck noth
ing was saved.
All this time the firemen were only
able to make a dlapirited fight; thrown
ing water straight up to let It fall use
less almost on th,* furnace or else play
ing the hose, through doors and win
dows. on a heat that bad gone toj far
to be quenched by the supply of wat:-r.
grocery store of R. H. Field's: and Jlr
Pic-Ids. who was present, and hid the
key to his store in his po ket. aaw tht
futility of trying to save any ot hit
stock, being forced to stand still au«!
watch his goods go with the other
burning property.
The building was so heated now that
the adjoining store of Ben J K Bryan
* * uiel to catch fire from all aides at
once, and on three floors the flame*
destroyed everything. Simultaneously,
the dormant fire. In the lower wrerkagt
of Oglesby Brothers' sprang to lift
again and communicated fire once
more to the cotton office of J. H. Sloan
which Is In the corner building, and
which up to thla time bad suffered
comparatively little. In a quarter of
an hour this cotton office aad the iW
mont cotton office, is the rear of the
building, was ruined.
The fire ruined store buildings be
longing to Mrs Kachel Holloa and het
children, of this city, or to the estate
of Mr. Ed llolton. The lateness of the
hour and the great confusion resultant
from tbe fire allowed no opportunity to
gain exact particulars as to the fire
losses. It is estimated, however, thst
tbe loss pn the buildings alone will be
$30,000 or $35,000. The first store rooms,
which were occupied l>jr J. B. Sloan
and H. G. l.ink. were two-story build
ings, but the other three stores were
In a tall, three-story building. It if
said that the property Is well Insured.
It was also estimated that I.tnk e
loss will be about $30,000: Fields' lose
$15,000; Oglesby Brothers' about 2.J00,
and Bryant's between $5,000 and sl'J.-
000. Sloan will not lose more than
SI,OOO, It Is thought. AH of the de
stroyed property, it is said, ia well in

about SIOO,OOO.
