The insurance firm of Baker. Marshman A Baker has 88.000 placed on the buildings and stock, including 30,000 on (be Currier building. This was distributed in amounts of $1000 to $6000 in 15 different companies. The Street at Midnight were still thronged with people, notwithstanding the fact that the fire was under subjection. Uuife a number of people managed to escape the vigilance of the police and crowded under the ropes, but in mot eases they were run down and forced outside the ropes.

A number, however, remained inside the line and when tlie walls of the Strout building fell outward into Union several people narrowly escaped being bufied in the ruins. A prayer of thanksgiving from the assembled multitude went up with the smoke and flames from the falling debris. Only one building -stood between the burning block and the National Security Bank. The officials of the bank were early on the scene and got all their valuables in readiness, but it was not nqcessary to move them. The fire recalled the scenes of November, 1889, when the business section ot the city was destroyed.

At that time 330 buildings were burned and the entire heart of the city was laid waste. It was the greatest blow that Lynn ever suffered and the city was just recovering from its effects. Tonight's fire originated within a stones throw of the place whore the fire of 89 started and burned over some of the territory then laid waste. No trains were run through Lynn over the Boston A Maine system until 11.15 oclock. Passengers were unable to reach Boston, and people who came from Boston came on the tram ss far as Market st, ami turn walked to the Central depot.

The hose of the fire department was stretched Across the Tracks in Central and all business on the road In Lynn was at a standstill for an hour and a half. The officials of the road here used every possible precaution to prevent damage to the companys The baggage and property was gotten in rikdiness to move to a place of safety, but the subjection of the fiames-reudered farther efforts unnecessary. The owners of wagons and express teams did a big lively business, and so far as can be learned their hire was not necessary. Even barges were brought into requisition to move valuables. Considerable damage was done to the Fabens block on Union opposite the buildings that were burned.

The intense heat broke the windows and scorched the sashes, and some damage was done to the stock of the occupants by water. Titus Buckleys block was also somewhat damaged. Titus Bnckleys stock was slightly damaged by water. John F. McCarty, who occunies a printing office in the same building, suffered a Joss by water.

N. IL, July 17. A shocking tragedy occurred here tonight. As Miss Christie Warden, accompanied by her mother, her sister, Fannie, and Louise Goodell, were returning on foot to their home, located one mile from the village, at a late hour, Frank Almy, about SO years of age, jumped into the road in front of them, and seizing Christie by the arm said, want you. The mother and sister attempted her defence, when he fired at them but missed.

They ran for assistance. Then Almv dragged his victim into the boshes from the road and shot her twice through the head, one shot tearing out her left eye. When help arrived the girl was dead and her bodv was stripped of nearly every article of clothing. Almy ha I fled- Mi.ss Warden was a beautiful and estima. ble young woman, about 25 years old, a graduate of the State normal school and a popular teacher.

Almy was a former employe of her fathers, whose attentions Miss Christy re pulsed. She was the daughter of Andrew A Warden. a wealthy farmer and leading citizen. The terrible affair occurred so late tonight that it was midnight before the news reached the village. Sheriff Foster is sending out searchfhg parties in all directions.

Almy is about 30, 5 feet 10 inches tall, had a dark mustache, and is of pleasing ad dress and well educated. The father of the murdered girl offers a reward of $500 for the capture of the murderer. The town will undoubtedly offer an additional reward. CLOSING UP THE COUNT. Your Census Card Punched and Ready for the Machine.

He settled in Lackawanna, and established himself in the grocery business. He wooed and won Mary Connolly, a buxom Irish lass, after being in the country only a year. There was a big time at the wedding. Fmnerty quarrelled with his wifes brother. William Connolly.

Arriving at the latterplace Finnerty took the first train for the West.

That was the last heard of him until Monday, when he called at his wifes old home. He had undergone suen a change that no one knew him. He inquired for his wife. "She is dead, was the answer. What! Dead! he said, then began to weep.

He was removed from the place a raving maniac. Beiore he went crazy Finnerty told the following story to John Lawlor, an old shoemaker, whom he knew before he went West: "On the night of the wedding when the doctor said mr brother-in-law would have to die. the gallows loomed up before me, and I resolved to escape. I wandered in the West for years, and finally located in Omaha. I entered the shoe business there, and made some money.

I was prompted to write to my wife every day, but I was afraid to do so. "Three months ago I met Michael Laf-ferty, who lived in Lackawanna county hen I did. He told me that my brother-m-law had not died, bat had recovered from his wounds. He did not know whether my wife was alive, having left for Chicago six months after I had wedded Miss Connolly. I at once resolved to come East in search of my wife.

Shoemaker Lawlor said the man was in th best of spirits when he left him to go to his wifes house. Mrs. Finnerty. the youni bride, became a lunatic after her husban-. of an hour had desested her.

Scenes Attending Fire of 89 Repeated. Engines Called from Other Cities. Excited Goods ens Remove from Buildings. Blake and Strout Both in Reins. All Honr's Hard Battle Saves tie Carrier Baildinc.

Lynn, July 17. A. serious fire broke out at 9.50 oclock tonight in the building owned by the Blake heirs, corner of Union and Mulberry sts. An alarm was rung in from box 16, and this was followed by a general alarm. The flames were so fierce that there were grave fears that the fire wonld exceed that of 1889, and assistance was summoned from Boston and Salem.

The fire spread to the adjoining building owned by E. E. Strout, and that was soon a mass of flames. A few minutes later the blaze was communicated to the Currier building. The Blake building and the Strout build ing were soon destroyed.

The flames were stopped at the Carrier building, and an hour after the time the fire started it was practically under con-troL Intense excitement prevailed throughout the city, and the people rushed from their houses in such numbers that in a few minutes after the fire started. Central sq. and all the streets in that vicinity were thronged with excited citizens. There were as many women as men, and it was almost impossible to get within quarter of a mile of the burning buildings. Articles of ail kinds were loaded and conveyed to a place of safety.

Owners of property in the vicinity of the horning buildings adopted precautions to prevent a repetition of the 89 fire. They did not wait for the flames to reach them, but commenced to move their goods. Teams were hacked up to doors, and the streets in the vicinity of the fire were crowded with vehicles of all kinds, conveying to places of safety the effects in the buildings. The fire originated in the drying room of the laundry, on the third floor of the Blake block, and before it was discovered it had spread throughout the entire building. It followed the shafting into the Strout building adjoining, and within 15 minutes from the discovery of the fire the latter was a mass of flames from cellar to root This structure was of brick, five stories high, and, being built for offices and light mechanical purposes, the windows were numerous.

The flames blazed through every window aDd through the roof, lighting up the heav ens for miles around. The fire was in the locality swept by the Great Fire of 8 and the territory in the rear of the Strout building had not been rebuilt upon. As a result, the fire department was able to get in the rear of the burning buildings, and it was doubtless owing to thiB fact that a more extensive conflagration was averted. The firemen were able to almost surround the burning buildings, and streams of water were poured in from every direction. The firemen and the police worked nobly.

Every portion of the Lynn fire apparatus was brought into use, and the police lent valuable assistance by roping off the api proaches to the scene of the fire, and keeping back the crowd, so that the firemen could have room to work. So thorough was this work that when the walls fell no one was injured. As soon as it was found that the fire would prove stubborn assistance was summoned from ont of town, and engines from Swamp-scott, Marblehead, Boston and Malden responded. Steamer 27 came from Boston over the highway, reaching Lynn at 11.05, drawn by four horses, and the Boston firemen were greeted with prolonged cheers by the peo-pie. The steamers from Swampscott.

Malden and Marblehead were also greeted with cheers. The spread of the flames was very rapid, notwithstanding that the buildings were of brick and built upon the most improved methods to withstand fire. Had they been constructed of wood they could not have burned more freely, nor could the flames have spread more rapidly. The flames were principally confined to three buildings, although other buildings were damaged by water. The Blake building and the Strout building are in ruins, and the walls of the Currier building are much damaged, and the rear wall will doubtless have to be rebuilt.

Ldiaei and Imnraiice The Blake building, a four-story brick structure, was occupied as follows: Ground floor Samuel Gunn, gents furnishings. loss. $3500: E. V. Hyde, provision dealer, loss.

The Dangerous Street Railway Privilege the Rock of Dissension. Injunction Applied for to Prevent Carrying Out Their Programme. Toronto, July 17. Quite a sensation was caused here today by a charge of boodleism against Toronto aldermen in connection with an agreement with a certain company composed of Cleveland, Buffalo and Toronto canitalists for the operation of the Toronto street railway. A 30-year agreement with the old company expired a few months ago and the city purchased the street railway plant at a cost of 81.540,000, and called for tenders for the operation of the line.

There were only two tenders that were seriously considered; one was from a company composed of prominent Toronto capitalists ana the other was from George W. Ktely of Toronto, one of two partners who operated the road up to within a few months ago, and Mr. Everett, a well-known capitalist and street railway owner of Cleveland. Baroch Mahler of Buffalo has been acting as agent for Mr. Everett in the matter, The Toronto company were working hard to secure the line, and it was thought at one time they would succeed, but the City Council this week decided that the proposed Everett-Kieiy company was the most favorable one, and entered Into an agreement to hand over the road to them, Mr.

Kerr, a prominent city lawyer and member of the Toronto rompany referred to, at a meeting of city council at which the decision to accept the proposal of the Everett Ktely Company as arrived at, and just before the vote was taken oir the matter, did all he could to persuade the aldermen that the proposal of his company was most favorable for the city, and then finally threw out rather more than vague hints that aldermen had been over susceptible to money from Cleveland used to influence their decision in the matter. The aldermen decided to accept the proposal of the Everett-Iviely Company, but the fat was in the fire and a well-known citizen, ex-Alderman E. A.

MacDonaldde-termiued that the matter should notest here. He applied to the courts today for an injunction to restra-n the aldermen from entering into the agreement with the Everett-Kieiy Company. McDonald made mi affidavit charging That money was paid to the aldermen to influence their votes in behalf of the successful tenderers, and has obtained permission to examine certain aldermen, when, if evidence in any way justifies the charge, injunction will doubtless be granted. Everett says Mahler acted as agent for him in the matter and in event of his being accepted Mahler was to be paid $10,000. That was all the interest he had in the matter personally, and Mr Everett says the idea of Mahler doing anything crooked or attempting to bnoe aldermen is false.

Mahler was once president of the Cleveland board of education. LEPER WASHING SHIRTS. Pleasant News for Patrons of a New York Chinese Laundry. New York, July 17. A Chinese leper has been discovered by the health department at 403 5th st.
