THE TIMES-PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY MORNING, AUGUST 30, 1893. 5 TWO HOTELS BURNED Beach Again Visited by a Big Fire. ROCKAWAY BEACH, L. August Seaside Station of the Rockaway Beach Railroad was burned early this morning. The flames originated in the top story.

nSergeant Wolfert. wife and two children; Section Foreman Anthony Roop, with his family, and five railroad gatemen, were asleep at the time on the second floor. They were aroused with difficulty. Wolfert saved his two children, but was badly burned. Mrs.

Wolfert jumped from the second story window, and was followed by the five gatemen. All sustained serious injuries. A hurricane prevailed at the time and the flames spread with amazing rapidity. Datz's Hotel caught fire. The building was filled with summer guests, none of whom had time to dress themselves, and they fled from the structure in their night clothes.

The fire department is not an eflicient one and Datz's Hotel was soon in ruins. Louis Reynolds' hotel, in the rear of the railroad station, was then attacked by the flames and also damaged. At this time the wind changed, blowing in the direction of the new Seaside House. It was the largest hotel on the beach and had forty-five guests within its doors. These people and the fire department devoted all its enerwere bundled out with little ceremony, gies to an endeavor to save the hotel, but without avail.

The loss will be about $25,000. REVEALED BY A SPECTRE How a Widow Recovered $3,000 of Her Husband's Estate. The Dead Man Appeared to Her Sister and Told Her Who Had the Money. Epecial Telegram to THE TIMES. MADISON, N.

August 29. There recently 1 took place in this town an occurrence over which the disciples of Spiritualism are rejoicing and the skeptical are puzzling. Some eighteen months ago a wellto-do farmer of this county died, leaving a widow and several children. few months before his death he mortgaged his farm to raise the money with which to purchase a piece of land adjoining his own. He had saved the whole of the amount, with which he expected to pay off the debt, and was known to have the sum, something over $3,000, in his possession a day or two before stricken down with his last illness, but when the widow came to look into the deceased found.

man's 3 effects the money could nowhere be The day when the mortgage was to fall due was near at hand and it would be necessary to sell the newly-acquired property to pay it if the money was not discovered. A thorough search was made, and every possible friend to whom the dead man might have given it for safe keeping was examined as to his knowledge of the money, but no one had any inkling of what had become of it. It was then remembered that Mr. Lithye nad made an unexpected journey somewhere to the South shortly before his death, but he had been reticent as to where he had been. Indeed, it was on getting back home that he was struck down with the paralytic stroke that affected his organs of speech and brain so that he was not capable of answering intelligibly the simplest question addressed to him.

The widow, after every possible means had been taken to discover the whereabouts of the money, at last became in a measure resigned to its loss, and had placed the new lands in the hands of an agent for sale, when her sister, a young girl from Boston, came to visit her. One day this girl was talking with her sister over some sewing on which they were engaged, when she seemed to look over her relative's shoulder, and asked abruptly: 66 Why, sister Jane, who is that man?" Mrs. Lithye turned her head quickly, but could see no one, and said so, when Mary, the girl, persisted, If I did not know differently, I would certainly think that there was Brother Austin." She had not seen Mr. Lithye for some years before his decease. She watched the figure lean over her sister's shoulder, and caress her hair for a moment, then it was gone, leaving the girl staringly blankly.

Again she claimed to have encountered the same figure in the hall, and that it paused as if to allow her to overtake it, but that she ran past it in terror. CAME TO HER BEBSIDE. One morning she came down to breakfast and declared, "Sister Jane, I know where that missing money is." It was thought that she was jesting, but she insisted, and told that the night before she had been awakened to find standing beside her the mysterious visitor she had seen twice before. She claimed that the phantom had informed her that he bad placed the money with a merchant in Portland, and gave the man's name and address. She had fallen asleep again after this vision, and had it repeated twice over.

She then rose and set down the name and business of the merchant and produced the slip of paper on which she had jotted them down. Mrs. Lithye had never heard of such a person and at first declined to credit the story, but urged by her sister she Anally wrote to the merchant inquiring if Mr. Lithye had about a certain date left any money with him for sate-keeping. The man replied promptly that no such sum had been given to him and Mrs.

Lithye censured Mary for causing her to make so great a mistake. The next morning after the receipt of this reply Mary Dunn came down to say that she had again seen her brother-inlaw, who had told her that the merchant lied and that if she would write once more telling him that the money was contained in an old red morocco pocket-book, marked with his grandfather's initials in German type, that the thief would probably disgorge his booty, which he had appropriated thinking there was no proof of his possession of it. This Mary did with the result that the money was forwarded by the next train, with the explanation that the writer had overlooked the circumstance. The girl had no means of knowing of this transaction, as no written evidence of it existed. She is a good, Christian girl of a matter-offact disposition, and looks on her singular experience as only a most wonderful dream.

But the question remains, what did she see, or was it only one of those inexplicable coincidences that have amazed the world for all ages? Skeptics claim that the girl might have found some memorandum of the money and its whereabouts, but its presence in the old pocket-book, of which she knew nothing, is a proof of her honesty in the matter. She so much disliked the notoriety the affair has given her that she makes her sister now tell the story for her to the inquisitive crowds who flock to hear it. CASE OF ALLEGED CHOLERA. A Woman Said to Have the Disease in Jersey City. JERSEY CITY, August woman said to be suffering from Asiatic cholera was taken to the City Hospital this morning.

The County Health Board absolutely refused to give out any information until the county physician is satisfied as to the nature of the disease. It is known, however, that the house from which the woman was taken was hurriedly but thoroughly fumigated. The woman came from No. 8 State street, and the place is now in charge of the authorities.

DISPERSED WITH A Mob That Promised to be Unruly Soon Senttered. CHICAGO, August thousand unemployed men who had gathered on the lake front late yesterday afternoon to discuss Mayor Harrison's order to stop parades surged out into State street. They were a disorganized mob and made no attempt to parade, but their members impeded traffic in the already crowded street. The mob cheered as it advanced and brought out hundreds of spectators until the streets were packed with people.

A hundred men stopped in front of Siegel, Cooper store clamoring that they wanted bread. For a moment it looked as if they were going to dash into the store. While they hesitated the police were upon them. They grabbed the men by the coat collars and administered a series of vigorous kicks. The demonstration ended in inglorious defeat, the mob scattering before the charge of the police and disappearing down the side streets.

A FOREIGN PROFESSOR'S FALL Through an Elevator Boy's Carelessness He is Badly Injured. James A. O. Zaley, a professor of chemistry at the University of Valencia, Venezuela, met with a painful accident yesterday by falling down the elevator shaft in the store of Queen 1010 Chestnut street. Professor Zaley was staying at Dooner's Hotel and had only been in the city since last Sunday.

His object in coming to this country was to purchase chemical instruments, as he was about to open a large chemical manufactory in Valencia. It was for this purpose that he entered Queen's store. The elevator boy when he ran the car up left the door on the first floor open. The professor did not notice that the elevator was not there, but stepped through the door and fell to the basement. He was taken to the Jefferson Hospital with a broken collar bone and a compound fracture of the leg.

He will recover, but will be greatly delayed in reaching Valencia. President Patterson Ousted. Special Telegram to THE TIMES.
