lived with his wife and mother in the real

MoCord struok the fatal blow in defonst
of an attaok on his mother.
According to the commonwealth's wit

During tho dispute Adams, thedead man,

AlTOONA, Pa., Jan. 87. The reports of

promptly sent to the scene a rollef trnln

party was returned to Tyrone, and all

Tito car loads of people went down to

that which patronizes the criminal courts,
and much less in number. Still the crowd
that went down to Potteville this morning
was sufficiently large to attract considerable
attention. Among the passengers were Chief
Burgess Burns, E. F. Uallaglier, Councilman
Jolm Uoehm, Health Officer Coury, T. II.

more, or less, prominence. About two score
of the peoplo were called to the county seat

An Excellent Candidate.
Ed. Herald : The largo number of can
didates seeking nomination for Chief Bur
gess on the Citizens ticket, there is little
likelihood of a mistake being made. Among
those mentioned, ho ever, the name of C.
II. Hagenbuoh appears to meet with popular
approval. He is well qualified, having the
necessary executive ability; he wosld be a
toner of strength to the ticket, and there is
no question as to his electic- if nominated.
Iam convinced be is the popular choice.

LOSS NEARLY TWO MILLIONS I
One Man Drops Dead Front fcrsttement and
Two Firemen Injured-tile Big Olty
Hall Blistered by Heat and Plate
(Jilts Windows Orteked.
Philadelphia, Jan. (7.A tiuy spiral
of smoke ourled ont of the teller window
of a big building ou Market street at 8:50
o'clock iu the morning. A few hours later
one of the most valuable blocks of real ee
tate in the city had been consumed in a
raging flame. It was the block bounded
by Market, Thirteenth, Filbirtand Juniper
streets, In the very heart of the city. A
few stops to the right toomn the massive
olty hall, around the oorlter stands the
great Pennsylvania rallroftl terminal, aud
dtreotly across tho way John Wana
maker's great store stretched from street
to street. So fierce was the flame aud so
strong the wind whloh atdetl its destruc
tive work that even this building, distant
the width of Market street, was saved al
most by a mlraolo from totit destruction,
and Mr. Wanamaker plows his loss at
1100,000.
The total los if variously estimated at
from $1,000,000 to $8,000,001, but in the
ohaos and oonfuslon uow existing it is all
but impossible to secure accurate figures.
The losses are very generally covered by
insurance.
The Are originated in the basement of
the six story building extending from 1800
to 1817 Market street, oooupied in the
lower floors by Hansoom Brothers, gro
cers, and above by tha umbrella factory
of Hlrsh Si Bro. The smoke was discov
ered by a policeman, who promptly turned
in nn alarm, but the Are made suoh head
way that before the engines oodld be put
to work tho building was a mass of
flames.
With uncontrollable rapidity It then
spread in all directions, destroying about
thirty buildings before it had been finally
controlled. The Are reached the big tower
of Wnnnmaker's store about an hour after
it started, andie energies of the depart
ment wore then almost concentrated upon
saving that building. The tower was,
however, entirely destroyed, together with
the valuable clock ohlmes; the roof all
along tho Market street front was badly
damaged, and a great deal of the stock in
the front of the store suffered from smoke
and water.
The buildings wholly or partially de
stroyed were: Market street 1303-08,
Potter & Co., photographers; John TTH.
lam, druggist; 1305, O. K. Sterrer, cigars;
1307, H. I Roberts & Co., photographers;
11109-17, Hlrsh & Bro., umbrellas; Hans
oom Brothers, grocers; A. W. Dennett,
restaurant; 1819, Blum Bros., cloaks and
suits; 1821, A. Marshall, restaurant; 1338,
G. B. Wells, hats; 1W6, John. DJskwn,
heaters; 18B7, Showell & Jfryer, grocers;
a number of small three-story structures
on Thirteenth street up to Filbert, and
four buildings on Filbert street, lnoludlng
the six-story printing house of Dunlnp &
Clarke,
At about 8:30, whllo tho sparks were
flying In all directions, the awning of tho
Hotel Youdlg, at Twelfth and Market
streets, was seen to be smouldering, and
before any attempt to put it could have
been made a flame started up and the awn
ing soon disappeared lu smoke. About the
same time hundreds of sparks were settling
on the roof, but because of the building be
ing a whole block away from the oonfbv,
gratlon no one thought there was any
danger of the building being set on fire.
Men and women rushing here and there
with little olothes on added to the paulo,
and in a few seconds the commotion had
reached an alarming extent, the root
caught on fire, but a oheinloal engine
quickly extinguished the flames.
The Intense heat from the burning
building oocupied by Hlrech Brothers
cracked nearly all the heavy plate glass
In the window frames along the sixth
floor of the oast front of tho publlo build
ings, north from Markot street, and the
woodon frames are saorohed, while, in
many plaoes tho marblo in the front of
tho hall Is oraoked. This is particularly
truo of the marble figures directly over
tho entrance ou the oast side. This Is
upwards of 900 feet away from the de
stroyed building.
When tho flro assumed alarming pro
portions and .threatened the destruction
of tho ontlro block bounded by Thir
teenth, Market, Juniper and Filbert
streets orders were given to remove the
records of the olty, belonging to the bu
reaus of Are and water, whioh are quar
tered In the building at the northeast cor
ner of Juniper and Filbort streets. These
records were carried across, the street to
(he publlo buildings, where they were de
posited in one of the rooms on the seventh
floor. After the flames were gotten under
control these records were returned to the
respective bureaus.
One man dropped dead of excitement
He was John A. Felt, bookkeeper in the
employ of a carpet Arm at 1990 Market
6treet. Felt, who was an old man, beeame
excited while helping to get goods out of
the store, and succumbed to heart disease.
He was a native of Boston.
Two firemen were injured by the falling
walls while engaged in fighting the Are
from Silver street. Thoy were William
J. Qoriuan, aged 89 years, who is assistant
foreman of engine company No. 1. Ha
was severely Injured about the head, and
burned on the neck by the burning em
bers. His companion was Frank Piper,
86 years of age, a hoseman connected with
engine No. 80, who was struok on the
back by falling bricks and bad his left
shoulder contused.' Several of the fire
men were overcome by the smoke, while
others were affected by the Intense cold,
and had to be taken to the Hahnemann
and Medloo-Cldrurgloal hospitals for
treatment.
Following are some of the losses: George
II. Wells, $6,000; Blum Brothers, $360,000;
Uirsh Brothers, $800,000; Showell & Fryer,
damaged by smoke and water only, $8,000, ;
Andrew Marshall, restaurant, $16,000; A.
W. Dennett, restaurant, $20,000.

To-morrow night the Qtisens primarie
will be held, so that it will soon be known
who will be on the ticket to compete with the
Democratic ticket for votes at the borongh
election to be held next month. While the
primaries will be of a very spirited ehaiaeter
in many respects, they will in no instance be
marked by the same bitterness that character
ised the Democratic primaries. In the first
place, there is o contest for the tax collector
ship and the only ward in which earnestness
is displayed iu efforts to gain the nomination
for Council or School Board, is the Third,
and as that ward is as strongly Republican as
the First ward is Democratic, the contests
there need not be looked upon as mora than
little fa.uily jars.
The main contest hinges upon the nomina
tion for Chief Burgees. There are eight can
didates and each is making a contest as hot as
hard work can make it. bat all have openly
declared that they will accept the result
gracefully and tu.n in for the man who wins
the nomination. This excellent spirit has
given the arrangements fcr the primaries a
color that is pleasing to all concerned aod a
sentiment of fair play stems to prevail in all
quarters.
The primaries will be open from 4. to 8 p.
m. and each will be manned by intelligent
and trustworthy officers. The first ward
primary will be held in the Kendrlck house
with John Bamage, William Beeves and
Kdward Doherty in charge. Second ward.
