Not a sign of tthera "was found,' there, being, even no melted glass and this further stren gthens the theory that the fire was noc oi acciaeniai origin. The - agent had - placed about two hundred dollars in paper money, 'about forty dollars in gold and his books in the safe on, Saturday and it was sup posed that these had not been injured by the fire, but when the safe was open ed this mottling nothing remained of the'; paper money and the. books . but charred paper and the gold had been melted.
