This organization of the firemen lias suggested to tho frionds of Cap. tain Eason that tho polico should organize for him, and some ono would probably suggest that tho brewers and erocera should organize for Schliemann wero it not said that thoy wero al ready banded in his behalf. Following out this idea, wo would have tho auctioneers or ganizing for Kerrigan; the fruit peddlers and sealers of weights and measures gattin together for Grad.v: tho Flatlanda farmer: and Varuna oarsmen joining forces to about fo Byrne, the bucolic aud armatic expert; the super visors entering into a covenant for Dan Ryan an the men on tha bic pipes pooling their issues on Wator Purveyor Hawkes.

Very Battle Oiiuinare rane (he Oarjro of tile Vcsncl. The steamship Iroquois, of the Clydo line which camo into port Friday night with a cargo of cotton and southern merchandise and smouldering tiro in one of her compartments, is still lying on tho Jersey flats.

The cargo has noarly all been taken olf, and it now appears that tho fire was very insignificant after all. Iho Clydo steamship company say that not more than $2.0 worth of merchandise has been de stroyed. When Captain Pennington was seen yesterday he said the reports of tho tire had been exaggerated. "There was not Iho slightest eauo for alarm at any time," ho said. "The only dan ger that could have arisen when tho lire was dis covered off Capo would havo been a panic among the twenty passengers.

I kept the knowl edge of the tiro from them. All wo had to do was to closo down the compartment in which the fire was and keep it filled with steam. It is impossible for lire to spread when this is done. I could have run the vessel 5,000 miles, if I had coal enough, without any apprehension that tho lire would spread." The captain added that the reason the Iroquois was taken over to the Jersey fiats to have tho tire drowned was because the water was shallow there and she could not sink, "You Hee," ho ex plained, "when tho hold or compartment of a vessel is filled with water she is likely to sink too far, and taking her tu a shallow place was a pre caution against this." It took four hours to till tho compartment with water. The company deny that tho longshoremen hesitatad about un loading the cargo when they found out that there was a liro on the vessel.

They were not satisfied with tho bill boards, but selected the fronts of some of the handsomest residences and Htores in the fashionable quarter of tho oily. They did their work so quietly as to escapo detection. To day tho citizens are trying to clean off the bills, but tho paste used contained so much glue that they e.m not bo removed without disfiguring the house fronts.

The United States consul at Colon, In a roport to tho department of state, dated September 23, in regard to tho recent tiro, gays that it commenced about 13 o'clock on the ulght of tho 23d and kept on until the bnsinesB part of tho town was totally destroyed. It is estimated that more than two hundred business honscB wore de atroyed with all their contents and goods, probably worth The houses wero all frame buildings of a cheap standard. Owing to the very large quantity of aloohol aud coal oil in atook tho liro waa at once beyond control. Thero was littlo or no InBuranco on the stock. Outside of this lass the Panama railroad lost 50,000, a numbor of cara loaded and unloaded being destroyed on the track as well aa the ofllcea of the company.

The senate chamber to day presented an ap pearanco of dignified quietude. Not a senator or employe was prosant to break tho monotony of tho rowa of desks, nowly oloaned and in par foot order. Far different was it in tho house where, in order to onablo electrio wiroa to ba pub in, connecting the hall with tho various committee rooms, tho carpets had boon taken up, desks had been piled upon deak3, chairs upon chaira, until tho chamber bore a reaomblanoe to an installment furniture house.

The roport of the trial board, of which Commodoro John Irwin was tho president, gave the ahip on her trial trip an average apeed of 10.003 knota par hour. Thia spood waa based upon a run of 4 hours, an allowance of 1 minute 42.873 aeoonda being made on account of tha necessity for atonping the forced draught to the tn lower furnaoo air ducts to tho boilers In tho second flro room from forward during tho latter part of tho run and to all of tho furnaces in tho forward fire room for 15 minutes.

This was necessary becauso water was discovered coming into tno lorwaru uro room, where it had beon used for circulating fhrough the guides, sprays on bearing and orank pins, and extra water Bnpply on all of the eccon tries. It had drained iuto tho bilge wolla and rison to a point higher than tho drain valve in tho forward boiler compartment which opens into the main drain that connects with tho bilga well, and aa thia valvo was accidentally open, the water from tho bilge pump well backoa up through tho drain pipa and valve on to the fire room floor and partially filled tho two lower furnaco air ducta of the boilere in the tbO ond liro room forward. Without this allowance of 1 minuto 42.873 seconds, tho speed of the vessel waa 10.518 knots.

The delegation from tho different churches in this ward, who recpntly wont down to aeo Commissioner of Police Huydon about tho viola tion of the excise laws and law breaking generally, although they did not got much satisfaction, do not propose to let tho mat ter rest. Thoy believo that about every saloon in tho ward ejlla liquor on Sunday.

He, in company with another minister, mado a canvass last week of that part of the Twenty sixth ward lying between Eastern parkway, Jamaica ayonne, Vesta street and Pennsylvania avenue. In those blocks, thoy found iifty fiva saloons in active operation. This and several other faots which Mr. Barnhart has in his possession go to prove, in his estimation, despite assertions to tho contrary, that this ward is much worse than it was several years ago. On Wednesday, October 1, the firm of Edward V.

Linton A Co. took possession of their new bank building, 3,787 Atlantic avenue. On tha entrance into their new quarter the cashier of the bank, William J. Wiuberg, was taken into partnership by Mr. Linton.

The new building', whioh adjoiua tho old stand an the corner, is a handsome structure, with imitation stone front. It is attractively fitted up inside, and, in addition to other facilities, has a private room for the use of women, with a separate windoy to the cashier. The corner building will now ba used exclusively for his real estate business by Mr. Linton. Twenty sixth wardors are getting impatient for the inauguaration of that system of surtaee drainago which Commissioner Adams has been promising.

They Will "Work Actively in the Third District. Trying to Take Advantage of Rspnbllcan Bickerings A Bnckwnrd Glance at Cansrres slonnl Complications The IIoss and Arlon Hall Germans. Tho bitterness engendered among the Republican of the Third congressional district by the contest between William C. Wallace and Robert P. Benedict has inspired many Democrats with the belief that there is a possibility of tho Democracy carrying tha district.

No doubt much of the ill feeling caused by the defeat of Mr.Bene dict at tho primaries will die out, but Democrats think that enough of it will romain to give them at least a flgh tine chance if the right sort of a man shall be nominated by their party. Tho Young men'a Deraooratie club evidently believo that tho winning of tho district is not, an impossibility, and thoy are concentrating their energies upon it. While tho olub may not take part in the canvass for local oliicos, they do intend to take acti'vo measures in behalf of tho Democratic candidate for congress, particularly in tho Third district. They have appointed a campaign committee, of which Benjamin R. Western is chairman, and also a oommittee to solicit contributions to a campaign fund, of which Algernon T.

Bristnw is chairman. The club rooms, at 44 Court street, are open every evening, and twice a week practical illustrations of the workings of the new ballot law aro given there. Tho question as to whether or not the club will actively support tho Democrat io local ticket has not yet been passed noon. There is an elen( nt in the organization which is not in iccord with the methods of the Democratio machine in this town, and those members who are in hearty sympathy with the machino do not teem diapossd to run tho chances of causing a division by proposing to accept the whole ol tho party ticket. This has been tho casj about every year, although the club did indorse and work for Mr.

Chapln, a former member, on both occasions of his candidacy for tho mayoralty. Alfred has grown very much since then, and may bo able to coax them nto lino if the machino should renlly earo for them. As a matter of fact, tho Democratic leaders have not heretofore appeared to care much for tho club. Upon congressional matters, however, the Young Democrats are united. They will make their big fight In the Third district.

They 'have not as au organization suggested any candidate for nomination. They will take the regular nominee. Of course, there may be individual preferences. Some of the members think that William J. Coombs, who ran against Sir.

Wallace two years ago, would bo tho strongest man for the present situation, although none of them are authorized to say that Mr. Coombs will aooept the nomination. The lines on which the light will be made are opposition to tho Republican tariff legislation as exemplified in the MeKiuley bill: opposition to tho proposed federal interference with elections as provided by the force bill, and opposition to tho general injustiuo of the actioiiB of the majority, including tho revolutionary rulings of Speaker Reed and the ousting of elected Democrats to make room for uu elected Republicans. Tho club contains some of the brightest Democrats in this oity, who will jnake a thorough canvass of the district, and from platform and by print show tho voters why the Republican caudidato should not bo returned. Ordinarily the Third district is hoavily Republican.

The lato Thomas H. Dakin was the last Democrat who carried tho district. Tho late Rev. J. Hyatt Smith, a Republican, was indorsed by the Democrats and was elected; but tho Democrats gained nothing by Smith's election, and it is not considered probable that thev go into any such deal again.

No man who will not vote fur tho Democratic caudidato far speaker and eupport the Democratio meitsuroa will bo tho Democratic candidate for congress in the Third district at any rate, not this year. Indeed, there is a widespread feeling among party men that it would bo far better to loao the district with a Btraightout nominee that win it with a kicking Republican, who would forget his obligations to the party which made it pessiblo for him to hold down Mr. Wallace's chair at Washington. At the same time there is, as yot, no rush to secure tho Domocratic nomination. The names of several gentlemen are heard in the gossip ot political circles.

For instance, ex Police Commissioner Hell and Colonel Lewis R. Stegmau have been mentioned. Mr. Bell made a pheuomeunl run against S. V.White four years ago, nud some of his friends think that he could be eleeted this year.

But there aro several rea Bons why Mr. Bell may not have tlfis opportunity to try conclusions with Mr. Wallace. One is that he is not seeking the nomination: ho isn't a candidate for it. "Since I left the police department in February last," said he, last evening, "I havo thought of pothing but my law practice.

Am I a Well, you know I always make it a point to accept nothing until it's offered to me. Seriously, however, I am not a candidate." Another thing which operates against tho Bell business 13 the fact that his relations with the machine managers hive not improved slnco they bad Mayor Chapin expel him from the police and excise commissioncr.diip, and it is extremely doubtful if he could seeuro even tho nomination for congress in tho Third district. The party bosses in tho Nineteeutli ward, where he resides, had no use for him, but some seem to think that ho may have use for them. In due time tho man who i3 to contest with Mr. Wallace will be ec lecled.

The matter is now under consideration by the leaders and they will choose tho one who in their estimation will bo likely to command the Ir.rgestRepublican eupport and also have tho solid vote of tho Democracy of the district. Tho shrievalty nomination continues to bo tho al! absorbing question among tho politicians. A little llurry was caused last iTeek by a report that Hugh McLaughlin, having became rattled by tho Arion hall Had decided that a German must be nominated for sheriff, and had sent out a lip on Excise Commissioner Schlieraann. There is uo room for doubt that tho fuss mado by the Arion hail people (in tho newspapers) has made tho big fellow a little uneasy, and some I people, posnibly friends of Commissioner Schlie mau, have suggested to him the advisability of nominating a German: but that Mr. McLaughlin has demded that Mr.

Schlioniaun is tho man is quite another thing. The friends of Justice Keu iria do not believo that ho i3 beaten yet, but thoy do say if ho does not get the noml aiation it will bj becauso of the row raised by Arion hall. They now admit that rit would havo been much hotter if he lhad kept out of tbo Arion halls affair altogether, in Tiow of the fact that ho had boon looked oipon aB tho probable nominee for sheriff. His. connection with tho German business, his uttor auces and his dealings generally, have been more or less misrepresented, and after all this came tho celebrated meeting between Mr.

McLaughlin and Messrs. Suhr and Lauten, the committeemen from Arion hall who went down to Willough by street to inako a bargain and were repulsed. Among thinking Democrats on the outside the impression is that this whole German business has been exaggerated: that the lnlltionco of Arion hall has grossly overcstitnat ad, and that for the organization now to nominato a German forsheriff would bo evidence of weakness. Yesterday afternoon a report was in circulation that the Boss hod been conferring with a representative of Arion hall, who is also a sympathizer with the machino, with tho view of patching up a settlement of somo kind. Tho meeting a hold in tho Willoughby street auction room.

A Demo arat, who prof essod to know, subsequently de Blared that the object of the mooting was not the one which rumor indicated, but that the visitor to Mr. McLaughlin, was a prominent German citizen, aijwealthy business man, who had called to urgo him to support Justice Kenna. It is known other representative Germans have warmly commended Ivonna. In tho meantime, tho supporters of Kenna aro working up sentiment for him and preparing for the convention. His own ward association (tho Twenty third) has nominated a primary ticket with a Kenna delegation to the county convention, composed of'John A.

Quintard, Richard Qibney aud Joseph Magill. An effort was mado to run Then Burgmeycr into ono of tho places, but it failed. Mr. Rutan, who has been announcing himself as a candidate for Bheriff, was repeatedly told that when the primary ticket should bo made up he wouldn't bo in it, uo far as the county delegation was concerned; but Mr. Rutan didn't soern to believo it.

If Kenna should not be nominated for Rutan may ba renominated for auditor; but it would be contrary to usago to take tho candidates for two such offices from ono ward. Justice Couvtuoy is making as bis a fight for the nomination aa lie knows how. The veteran WTOMINIJ'B REPORT. Ilcr Status Upon tlio IWa of Achieving Nlfiiolioori. Wasuinqton, D.

The governor of the territory, Francis E.

Wsrren, was elected governor of the state. In his annual report tho governor estimates tho population at something in excess of 03,000. These figures were furnished by tha census auporvisor, but the governor is of opinion that they do not represent the entire population, owing to tho difficulty iu taking theceusus in such a limited time, Tho population, he says, is largely American. Tho assessed valuation of taxable property in the state is $30,005,490, which, tho report states, is not moro than one third tho actual value. Thoro is a cash balanco in tho treasury of $04,014.

aud tho bonded indebtedness is $320,000. Tho governor aaya that tho number of cattle in tho state is about the same as last year, but thero aro fewer largo horda and many more small ortes. Tho grades, too, are higher. The coal mines and oil wells, of whioh thore are many, aro being worked to advantage. Tho governor recommends that thu appropriation for surveys of public lands bo increased: that eongrosa tako measurea to utilize tho waste waters ot tho mountain streams in providing storage reaorvoirs; that tho state bo donated its arid lands and that authority bo granted to tax persons occupying Indian reservations, and that tho oourta bo authorized to try and punish white men for offenses against staio lawa when committed on Indian reservations.
