CLOSE TO A CATASTROPHE. Fire Burned Briskly About ft Barrel of Gasoline. A dlsaRtroui Are anil In all proba bility u serious explosion were rucrted last nlfjht by the prompt action of the firemen. Tiniior'n band was Rlvlne a concert at the Cone house nnd nt 8 o'clock Leader llauer sent n small boy to set some Knsollne for one of thu lamp? at William V Connell Sc. Son's stoto at US I'enn navenue. The store was closed, but the boy found Mr. Con nell and obtained fiom nlm the key. He went through the store and down underneath the sidewalk when the R.isollne H kept. In lighting iv match he accidentally set Are to some wood near the gasoline barrel, which had been soaked with the liquid It blazed up quickly and the boy In coming alarmed, made no effott to put It out, but dashed upstairs. When he got to the front door he did one of those peculiar things' that people laboring under great excite ment sometimes do. lie had locked the door, leaving th Kev In the lock, when he went down stairs, but Instead of turning the key and opening the door, he picked up n piece of hardware and broke the glass front, through which he climbed He ran Into I'attolman Korlus nnl told him what had happened, nnd th ofllcct piotnptly turned In an alatm of tire from bo in, at the lorner of I'enn and Lnckaw annua nrnues. The Phoenix Chemlral company vas the tlrst on the scene and when they ar rived things looksd risky. The cellar doot was btoktn open nnd the (lames could be sem licking the sides nnd tops of the big gasoline barrel. The firemen were undaunted, however, nnd setal of them ran down the stahs with a line of ho, rlrl.lng the danger of a big- explosion, for had the barrel falily caught fire It would undoubtedly have exploded with filghtftil force. The tinmes did catch n little of th- stuff esenplng fiom the bunghole, nnd It blazed up thtentenlngly, but the stream from the rliemKit hoe soon had It extinguished. The damage ifine was very Might. Had there been an explosion there vould hae undoubtedly been many Injured by flying d"brls, as the stieet was so Jammed with people out to hear the band that the police were unable to establish proper lire lines.

Miss Balrd, of Port Jervls, Is the Original of the Photo That Graebner Raved Over. George II. Graebner, of Prospect ave nue, who made an unsuccessful at tempt Monday noon to commit suicide bv shooting himself thiough the head, Is now practically out ot dingei. Dr. J. W. Uusch, senior housti sur geon nt the Lackawanna hospital, ves terday said" "I think I can now safe'j nay that Mr. Giaebner will recover. The wound Inflicted Is pot a seilmis one, and unless something totally un expected should happen, he vv ill b- able to leave the hospital In about ten days." Graebner was In a contrite state e teiday, and when seen bv his patents and slsteis spoke to them In u t test fallen, shamefaced wnv, which spoki more than his wotds did of the humili ation he felt. He told his mother that the previous daj was almost as a blank to him, nnd thnt he could not even lecall his motive for attempting so despetate a deed. Theie seems little doubt as to th motive, however. The mysterious. sweet "Alice," whose photograph he guanled so Jealously Mondav, tians piies to be Miss Alice Halrd, of Port Jeivls, whom Graebner met at bet nonie, ii itvv vveeKs ago, vviuie imhuk In that town While In a delirious state, Monday, at the hospital, he laved contlnuouslj of "Alice," and recounted his court ing nnd wooing of the mystetlous fair one, to the edification of the cordon of whlte-canped nurses who were solic itously guarding the unfoi lunate swain's cot. rrom what Graebner slid his love was reclpiocated, und It Is now thought thnt It was mad Jealous which caused Monda's tragic scene, and not unrequited love. Giaebner s family entertain a dif ferent opinion to the one given above, and believe that the oung man's mind wns slightly affected by the heat; that he had suffeied fiom .i sunstioke, nnd, In fact, was generally piostrated. While in tills condition, they think that in a fit of melancholy ho pm chased the revolvei, and then pro ceeded to use it The entile famllv Is veiy much affected by the occurrence. HOLDING UP A BILL. Taxpayers Induce Controller Howell to Withhold His Signature from Alleged Exorbitant Bill. Controller Howell Is holding up i school boaid bill of veiy large pro poitlons In his office until he makes an in.' itigation fr tun purpose of discovering whetlie" It Is all tight or not At the meeting of tho school boaid, held on August H it was decldi d, not unanimously, be It sild, o purchase a lot on Fouith avenue, in the SKth ward fiom P.

Several Interested tnxpavers waited upon the controller yesterday morning and requested him to hold up the bill for a few days, assuring him that the whole thing was a deal of the veiy woist kind and that the pi Ice to be paid v. as exorbitant. These taxpayers had a set of figuies with them which they claimed showed that the boaid wns actually paving $9 SCO for the lot, which they allege is wa nbovo whut should be paid. The school boaid has $3,500 insurance on the old building, and tills Is a very low estimate, they contend, to place Its actual worth at Thev valued the lot nt $1,000 and the old buildings which Mr. McNnlly U given the light to remove at $1,000, so that these amounts added to the cash patnent of $4,300 total up $9,800. The controller Immediately decided to Investigate and refused to coun tersign the warrant for J1.0C0, which Is the Hist cash piyment Mr. Mc Nally waited upon him yesterday af ternoon and stated that the lot, which Is 101 by 1D0 feet In si7p, is worth all and more than the board has allowed him for It, The controller Informed him that he would visit tho property himself, In sompanv with a real estate man, and would then decide whether or not tho price was too high.
