The Fleming Stoke and the Post- office liuKN with Heavy Loss. From Monday's Daily Beacon. A fine business building belonging to County Recorder 11. C. Searles, was destroyed by fire at West ltichiield yes terday morning.

This is the second time it lias been burned. The first fire was in 18 6. and a rebuilding took place tne iouowmg year at a cost ot over l.uuu. it was one or the finest aud most convenient buildings for a coun try store in the State. It contained two stories and basement.

The first floor was occupied by H. E. Fleming as a general store, and by Postmaster D. L. Carr as a post-office.

The second story was occupied by the Grand Army Hall and Miss Alertou dressmaking rooms. ltie Grand Army held a meeting Saturday evening, and the scent of smoke was remarked then, but under the supposition that it came from the stove in which there was a fire, no further attention was paid to the matter. The G. A. loss is about 150.

It was rather singular that when the llarae burst iortli they appeared to envelope the whole building at once. The following from The Beacon's ltichiield correspondent gives the details: "Thestoreof B.E.Fleming was totally destroyed by fire Sunday morning. The alarm was sounded about 8 o'clock and in an hour and a half the budding was in ruins. The neighboring buildings were only saved by the heroic labors of the bucket brigade composed of men, women and children. Part of the goods were removed from the burning ouilding.

The contents of the post-office were removed with very little damage. Opinions vary as to the origin of the fire. It first appeared in the A. R. hall.

B. E. Fleming is the heaviest loser. The stock worth S7.000 was almost a total loss. It Avas insured for 83,000.

The building, belonging to County Recorder H. C. Searles was valued at $3,000 and was insured for 2,500. "Miss Irene Meiton sustained some loss in the removal of the furniture and goods from her dress-making shop TheO. A.

R. lost the furniture of their hall. Mr. FlemiDsr will build a store room at once. Meanwhile business will be carried on In tho building lately occupied by Mrs, Pritchard." X.

Y. West Richfield, May 4. Remark-ble good order prevailed at the fire yesterday. The citizens labored hard and well to save property. One repre hensible feature must bespoken ot and that is the plundering of exposed goods.

Young men and boys who ought to know fetter broke open a barrel containing boxes ot baking powder, from which they extracted solid silver spoons. As many as 15 or 20 spoons were thus stolen. boys were seen carrying away plugs of tobacco and other articles. Witnesses of these thefts may be induced to testify to what they saw. The postoflice is again in running order in Mrs.

Some or the men and bovs worked so zeai onsly in extinguishing the lire that their faces were blistered and they could scarcely stand. Mr, Searles and wife arrived here to-dav from Akron. Their many friends here sympathize with tht-m in their loss. Although there are so man serious things with the fire there are some funny ones, too. While the fire was raging fierce and hot one man took a box of lamp chimneys and threw them out with ereat force break ing nearly all of them.

He then turned back and picked up a coil of fence wire and carried it out onto the green as carefully as though it had been sleeping bube. Heavy And Fatal Fikes. London. Mav 3. Fire has destroy? 89 houses in ykanoer, Sweden, render ing homeless 100 families.

Members of the family say that is cunntnsr but terribly bitter in his maliciousness toward them and that he put the phosphorous into the tea with a view to killing them all, which alleged attempt happily failed.

Witnesses say that the latter followed Kaiser arouu-J for some time, abusing him aud that Kim berg finally took hold of R.aiser and then fight insned. While they were yet clinched Kaiser drew his revolver and fired over Kimberg's back. Ivimberg then wrenched the revolver rrom Kais er's hands and threw him to the. ground and pounded him badlv.

rieuds sep arated the combatants and Kaiser returned to his boarding place in Clint Allen's saloon. Ivimberg turned into Hoy saloon and there became so dis orderly that Hoy put Kimberg out. To retaliate, the latter knocked in a plate glass in Hoy's door, causing a loss of Officer Brobst arrested Kaiser r-t o'clock this morning and a charge of shooting with intent to kill was made against mm.

May 4. Yesterday while Mr. Shook, our genial postmaster, an family were at church a robber en tered their house, going through it in a systematic manner. Every bureau drawer and box was opened and the contents scattered about.

Between S4 and $5 in money was taken, together with a new live-shooter "Chieftain re volver, 32 calibre; also two gold rings belonging to Mrs. Shook. One was an engraved band ring with her name, "Minnie, eneraved on the tablet. Th other was of older pitttern with a heart shaped top. The thief was still on the premises when the family came home trom church, as a neighbor sa him going across a field not 100 yards from the house, while Mr.

S. was putting up his horse. He was seen by several persons who describe him as being a fair sized, middle-aged man with dark clothes, somewhat worn dark or black hat with wide band; a white shirt. He was rather better dressed than the average tramp. The total loss is between $12 and $15, The entire community was cut searching for the fellow within an hour, a few having taken the track within fifteen minutes after he left the house.

He kept the road west from the Center, about one mile. when finding himself pursued he took to the fields. The last seen of him he was heading southward towards a lot that was cleared somelo or 20 years ago which lias since grown up with brush so thick that it would take a well or ganized body of men to make a thor ough search of the place.

Ftom Thursday's Dally Affairs on the farm of W.

E. Waters, who lives a mile or so west of the city at Ayers' Settlement or Fairview.were looking decidedly hazy yesterday, and it seemed as though a war cloud was about to burst upon the communi ty. Mr. waters, about a year ago, bought some school property. The public had accustomed itself to cut across this lot to a cross road.

After buying the property, Waters fenced it in. The public had come to regard the patn as a public highway and a case was brought against Waters, but tailed or conviction. This week the matter broke out afresh and C. W. Bauer and his four sons and others.it was claimed, tore the fence down.

This Mr. Waters rebuilt. Yes terday morning the fence was again attacked, as Mr. Waters claims, by the same parties, and partly demolished, but the owner and one or two friends held the assailants at bay for a while, during which a scrimage took place between the two parties, resulting in several sore heads and shins. The Bauer party then retired but last evening, Mr.

Waters got word that the enemy was about to advance upon him with reinforcements and he set off post haste for this city for help. He routed ustice Moersch out ot his bed at 1 o'clock this morning and got the proper papers, and Constable Vos- burg accompanied him back, and re mained until clock this morning, but the enemy laid low and did not show itself. Each side was armed with heavy clubs, and some it is said had revolvers, and a lively time would undoubtedly have followed had the two parties met again. Papers are out for the arrest of Bauer, in case In: should continue to attack the fence. A Dangerous Surqical Otera tion.

BLAINE, of Maine. For Vice President, JOHN A. LOGAN, of Illinoia. The Coal Oil Legislature has breath cd ita last gasp, and adjourned without day. Ohio is well rid of it at last Cleveland has got a little farther along with its Sunday night "sacred" concerts, and a "ball" is advertised in connection with them.

The party pressure upon Cleveland continues to increase, and the growling because he fails to give 30 or 40 hours a day to cutting off Republican heads, to make places for "hungry and very thlraty rto, grows stronger. Mayhap the mildness of the latest war news is only the calm that precedes the storm. It is safe to assert, at any rate, that Russia and England are still contracting for corvettes and torpedo boats and furniture of that sort. Judge Lawrence, of Uellefontaine, has written a letter, in which he says he is cordially for Foraker tor Governor. This is a flank movement against the Judge's townsman, Gen.

Kennedy, who never did have any great show for the nomination, at any rate. The members of the Ohio House celebrated their exit from official life by singing "Sweet Bye and Bye." It's well enough to be merry about it before the time comes, but the "bye and bye," as lit up by the lurid light of the Standard's best illuminator, will be far from sweet to the majority of the 66th Ohio General Assembly, if the law of retribution is still in operation when they come to meet their doom. The Republicans of the GCth Ohio General Assembly omitted the usual vote of thanks from the majority to the presiding officers. They saw nothing to be thankfm for in the abuse and foulness to which many of their members had been subjected, at the hands of the man Myers, whom the Democratic majority and its officers never dared to deal with as his outrageous conduct merited. For the first judicial vacancy that he has to fill, (Supreme Court of District of Columbia) President Cleveland has nominated Win.

R. Merrick, of Maryland, who was kicked out of that very court by Congress 20 years ago, for disloyalty to the Government that now honora him above any loyal man. Judge Wylie resigned because he had passed the 70-year limit, but Merrick is only five years younger. However.he is a rebel at heart and that is dearer than all things else to this Administration. "HhAt.rmr it ia in Foxaker's interest, as the Leader special claims, or in the interest of Beatty and Ivenneuj and the field combined against Foraker, as the Plain Dealer special asserts, that the Republican State Committee fixed upon Springfield as the place and Thursday, June 11, as the time for the State Convention, Republicans must remember above all that party success is of far greater account than all the personal schemes or ambitions in the entire State.

Victory is possible, but will not be easy or sure, and every division so far tends toward putting it out of reach. Saturday not only did Cleveland appoint to a judgeship a Maryland rebel whom Congress kicked off the bench for disloyalty, but he gave the import ant U. S. Consulship at Nagasaki, Japan, to one J. E.

Meiere, who has boasted within a month that he is a rebel still, and who had not the poor excuse of State allegiance as an apology for his breaking his solemn oath of allegiance to the United States government and entering the service of the conspirators for the destruction of all Federal authority. If Cleveland were not a Copperhead himself, how could so many such things happen? The comma that promised to play such havoc with Ford's anti-oloemarga- rine bill, has been circumvented. Th6 bill contained a proviso exempting from its prohibitions butter manufactured rrom "beef Buet, The prohibition against hog fat, or anything but the fat of beef remained, however. The pestiferous comma, coming in between the "beet" and the "suet," when the bill was engrossed, exempted all kinds of suet and left the widest kind of a loophole for the hog butter men. In view of the well or ganized lobbv at work to defeat the bill it was at once surmised that there had been tampering with the records in the interest of the pork-butter makers.

It was thought that the law had been made totally inoperative, but as the mistake appears to have been clerical it will be rectified by the clerks and the law will have full force. Another plum has fallen off the Fed eral tree in this part of the world. Yes terday Charles H. Lapp, long chief of the bookkeeping department of the "Western Union Telegraph Company at Cleveland, was appointed the special agent of the United States treasury rienarr.ment for the Tenth dis trict, to succeed Colonel A. M.

Burns, also of Cleveland, but formerly of Mansfield, and better known to Ohio municipalities by his Burns law that go often ties up the hands of a City Council and delays needed improvements. The Western Union is about as good as the Standard Oil Co. for Democratic office-seekers, President Cleveland having promoted "reform" last week by giving a fat U. S. Consulship to a son of Dr.

Green, the millionaire president of the overshadowing telegraph company. Democratic opposition to monopoly all ends in words, as such actions for the thousandth time illustrate. Louisville, April 30. On N. A.
