THE ABDUCTION CASE. DAMAGE CAUSED BY FIRE. Loss of Half a Million in Brooklyn This Morning—Destruction Elsewhere. New York, Nov. 12.—An outbreak of fire oc- curred about 5 o'clock this morning in Har- beck’s stores in Furman street, near Montague street, Brooklyn, one of the largest store houses on the East river front. The building is four stories high and was leased to Holton, Bliss & Dallett of 135 Front street, this city. They are the agents of the Red D line of steamers that run to South American ports. The store house is filled with cotton, and the fire is supposed to have been smoldering there for many days before the flames broke out. ‘The damage is placed at £500,000. Fire early this morning destroyed the large three-story factory building, 321 to 325 East 64th street. ‘The ‘building was occupied by a number of cabinet makers and a refrigerator and stair builder. The entiro loss is $85,000. Only a few of the firms had their property’ in- sured. The fire started in the boiler room. Mortreat, Nov. 12.—Half an hour before midnight last night « fire occurred in a row of tenement houses on Amherst street. When the firemen arrived on the scene three houses were in flames and the tenants were panic stricken. Many of the inmates of the burning houses jumpéd from the windows and received injuries. Two men had their legs broken and a child was iy a —t being ae out, A Mra. Poapard jumped from a third-story win- dow and was killed. if Cuatraxooaa, Texx., Nov. 12.—The rumored destruction by fire of Gurley, Ala., Thursday night proves to be greatly exaggerated. ‘The Gurley Hotel, which was recently completed, two dry goods houses and a saloon were de- stroyed. "Loss, £60,000. Provipence, R. L, Nov. 12.—The iron foundry of A. Carpenter & Sons, in this city, was almost totally destroyed by fire last night. Loss $250,000; insurance $140,000. A heated casting is supposed to have started the fire. Norroik, Nov. 12.—Last night's fire to- tally destroyed. with all their contents, the buildings of the Norfolk Storage Company, the Merchants’ and Farmers’ Peanut Company and the Etna iron works. Loss about $250,000, mostly covered by insurance. —— EIGHT BOXES OF DYNAMITE EXPLODE, Loss of Life and Destruction Caused at lagara Falls Burraro, N.¥., Nov. 12.—A special from Niagara Falls says: This morning about 9:45 o'clock the city was shaken by a terrible explo- sion. It came from the tunnel district, and thereascene of wreckage exists. The shock was caused by the explosion of a powder house belonging to Contractor A. C. Douglass, who is bnilding the canal and sinking the big wheel pit. In this power house a supply sufficient for the day was kept, the main supply being kept nearer the outskirts of the city. So far as known eight boxes of dynamite ex- ploded and the effect was terrible. A machinist named Jack Hogan was picked up dead 400 fect away, He was with a man named Dill Riel. They saw smoke arising from the house. Hogan started to run and as he was running it is supposed a stone struck him. ‘There was a cut across his throat. Hogan was twenty-six years old and single. His parents live in Welland, Ontario. Riel received several sealp wounds; none se- rious of his legs injured by atone, A negro and an Italian were also slightly injured. About the neighborhood signs of the great force of the explosion are visible. On the east side of the firein the new paper mill of the Mor- gan Falls Paper Company most all of the win- dows are broken. The fronts of the saloons belonging to Antoine Firellio, J. McDonough, Pasquali Gialleilla and M. Dorgan are broken in. Windows and doors in many near-by resi- dences are broken. ‘The commissary, the office of Messrs. Douglass and Johnson, machine shops, boiler houses, cement house, blacksmith shops and other buildings are wrecked. buildings are completely demolished. Where the powder honse stocd there ia a hole five feet deep, and there ix nothing but splinters mated at this writing. No one seems to know how the explosion oc- cured. It is known that astove was kept in the house in which wasa fire to warm. the dy- manite, and it is probable that in some manner the boxes of explosive and building got on fire. Contractor Douglass is out of the city. Engineers C. H. Baxter and Walter Burden had a narrow escape. ‘They passed the house a moment before the explosion occurredand were lowered down into the wheel pit. People on the streets were thrown from their feet and women in near-by houses fearfully frightened. It is remarkable that the death list is not greater. —___. WILL DO AWAY WITH DAVENPORT. Representative Fitch Says the Federal Elec- tions Law Will Be Repealed. New Yorx, November 12.—Congressman Ashbel P. Fitch, the chairman of the congros- sional investigation committee which has been scrutinizing Mr. Davenport's financial accounta and his methods, said today in conversation with a reporter: “There is a general impression that the in- vestigation of the committee is complete, and that the final report will be handed in on! December 6, when Congress meets next month in Washington. This is not so. A report will be given concerning Mr. Davenport's methods and his refusal to | obey the subpwna to appear before the com- mittee. On the latter ground he can be pun- ished either by imprisoument or by a fine for contempt. He can also be peremptorily | dismissed from his ofice, which — he got from the United States circuit court only | on the condition of good conduct. That, how- | ever, will scarcely happen. The work of the | investigation committee is riot done, and with | the ‘ission of Congress it will be continued during the congressional recess. “As soon as Congress convenes again, with a fair democratic majority, I myself will’ make a motion to have Mr. Davenport dismissed and the whole iniquitous 4; of federal super- vision of state elections wiped out forever. That will be the end of Davenport and of his methods, Thope.” SSR ESE GALES ON THE GREAT LAKES. No Such Storms Experienced There Since 1867.

Detnort,Mica.,Nov.12.—There is now no doubt that a part of the democratic state ticket has been elected. Chairman Campan of the dem- ccratic state central committee has claimed from the first the election of William Newton for justice of the supreme court, Adolphus A. Ellis Yor attorney goneral and George T. Shaffer for ‘commissioner of the state land office. *y were on both the democratic and people's tickets. There is still quite a difference of opinion between the two state central commit- | tees as to the extent of the republican plurali on it in Michigan. The democratic | committee concedes something over 5,000, the | republican committee claims something under 12,000. Reports received by tel yh at the’ democratic headquarters this m from the chairmen of the democratic committees of forty-two of the eighty-four counties of the stato show a total vote for Ewing, populist candidate for governor, of 17,472. vote would wipe out the republican plurality, even if it was what the republican state cen committee claim. and leave a safe majority for the candidates tho were on both tickets, If the democratic committee's claim is correct then Eltis, Newton and Shaffer are elected by more than 6,000 plural The joint vote of both parties on governor is an excellent _ in- dication of what the vote will be on those offices for which they have joint nominationg The election of Attorney General Ellis and Jndge Newton is regarded by the democratic state central committee as of the highest importance for the future.

Baker himself, with characteristic spirit, | throws his gauntlet into the ring and announces himself ready to meet those who propose to contest his reat, He says: “Iam perfectly willing that the dem- ocrats shall contest. my seat in Congress, to which Ihave been honestly and fairly elected by a plurality which is over 350. If an investi- gation is to be made I want it done thoroughly, and I ask no favors from any quarter. If the question of my election, however, is raised I do not propose to have the investigation coufined to the votes cast for me, but I) shall take the aggressive and shall make an equally thorough investigation into the manner in which and into the means that were used, not only by the democratic state committee, but by Mr. Parker himself, in the lemo- cratic prosecution of the canvass the second district. If an investigation is con- ducted on that basis, as certain); will be if one is instituted, I 6 not have the slightest anxiety as to the out- come. It should certainly show bribery and corruption on the part of the democrats that would most effectively prove that Mr. Parker bas no legal or constitutional right to repre- sent the recond New Hampshire district in the Congress of the United States.” OUTLINE OF THE CAMPAIGN AGAINST GEN. BAK! Secrotary Jackson of the democratic state committee outlines the campaign against Gen. Baker's seat as follows: ‘First, we shall ask for & recount, and should the result fail to wipe out his plurality we shall carry our case to the national House of Representatives and shall make allegations of specific cases of bribery in | sufficient numbers to prove our position. We shall 9 'y bribery im Warren, Campton, Whitfield, Lancaster and ward 1 in Concord and all through Cows and Cheshire counties. We | shall produce individual cases sufiicient in num- ber to unseat Gen. Baker.” A leading democrat from Cheshire county i e shall be prepared to farnish numer- ous specific cases of bribery by Gen. Baker in our count; DON'T BELIEVE THE CHARGES, Chairman Jewett of the republican state com- mittee is unterrified. He says: “I believe Gen. Baker was nominated by a republican conven- tion, legally called and held, to have been legally elected and to be entitled to his seat in the next Congress. He has an undoubted plu- Tality of votes, legally cast, as appears by re- turns already in of 300 or more. The canvass | in his district has been fairly conducted on the part of the republican party, and there is no reason to my mind why any atiack on his | election with a view of contesting his seat | should be made by the democratic candidate, | | Mr. Parker, or the democratic party. I fully | dixbetieve the charges of fraud and bribery | made against Mr. Baker or any bédy connected | with his canvass.” | SIMPLY A BLUFF. Aleading republican says: “It is notorious | | that the democrats spent a large amount of | | money in the second district, notably in Ber- | lin, Whitefield and Lancaster, and in parts of, | Hillsboro’ county. This threat to conte | selves down easy. The democrats are so dis- gusted at their utter rout in this state that they re ready to undertake almost anything.” — SOLIDLY DEMOCRATIC. The Virginia Delegation in Congress—The Populists Organize for Next Year's Contest. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. Riceaoxp, V&., Nov. 12.—The official returns show that Representative Epes has been re- elected in the fourth (Petersburg) district by a majority of 735 over Goode, populist, making a | solid democratic delegation. | This is quite a triumph for democracy, since | this district is a reput stronghold and the | latter contrived with the populists to defeat Mr. Epes. The populists in the state organized last night for next year's state contest. State | Chairman Pierson says they are by no means crushed by their recent defert. He says it was on account of the poor organization of the party, which will bo remedied Before’ next year. ee SENATOR PERKINS TALKS. What Lost the Election to the Republicans In His Opinion. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. Torexa, Kax., Nov. 12.—The result in this | | stato is still in doubt and the official count will | be required to settle thecontention. Two years jority, so that the republicans have made ® magnificent campaign. Rainbow chas- ing by the republican national committee instead of attention* to republican states | is greatly the occasion of our defeat. Stay-at-home republicans in Ohio and New York lost us these states and not Cleveland's strength. In the northwest it was free coinage, and in Wisconsin and Illinois the school ques- tion, with the socialistic vote, defeated us and but little of the republican loss can be ascribed | to tbe McKinley law. The excellent adminis- tration of Mr. Harrison with intelligent and aggressive work by the national committee contest. B. W. Perxixs —__ KANSAS.

Srectal Dispatch to The Evening Star, Torexa, Kax., Nov. 12—It now seems cer- ? i f 7 "| Be, z E j New York, Nov. 12—Mr. Russell B. Harri- ‘son, son of the President, was at the Plaza Hotel report that his father intended to live in Bos- ton after he retired from the White House. He stated that the President would return to Indianapolis and the remainder of his days among his associates and friends. He spoke of the great family affliction, and inti mated that his father was not disheartened by the result of the election, because he vould re- tire to quiet life now. He did not care to at length upon the result of the election, but added: “I think my father is proud of the good showing made in Indiana. “Two years ago the state gave the democrats « majority of 19,000 and now they only carry it by 8,000, showing a republican gain of 11,000. It was not even a doubtful state, for the democrats had carried it last fall. “Other states that were conclusively republi- can until the election proved the contrary are the ones that cause surprise. Look at . which gave McKinley a majority of 20,000 or moze when he was elected governor, si which has always been con- sidered a republican state in national years, und consider the great revolution wrought there. In view of the overwhelming change of votes in that state I certainly thivk the President ha cause to be proud of his own state and the great gains he made in two years. “Montana,” continued Mr. Harrison, “is an- other state that makes x «plendid showing. It had always gone democratic until 1889, and the victory there the other day is proof that the republican sentiment was uppermost.” leaps s STEALING IVY ROCHE. Developments in the Famous Abduction Case in New York. ‘ew York, Nov. 12.—The alleged purchase {gr $500 of fifteen-year-old Ivy Roche by Henry Lawrence was, according to the police court de- velopments, replete with sensational incidents. Lawrence, it is now declared, is Jacob Storms, a well known Yonkers business man. It is also discovered that Ivy Roche's personal charms were the innocent cause of a murder which oc- curred in Yonkers on the night of October 28. On that date it is said that Lawrence, as he was then known to the girl, made an appoint- ment to meet her and Mrs. White at William Jones’ Maple Hotel in Yonkers. The two women entered the hotel shortly before midnight and awaited Lawrence in the hallway. Jobr. McElveil and James Smith saw the women and remarked Ivy's pretty face. ‘They entered the hotel and paid so much attention to the women that Jones became angry and ordered them away. In the quarrel that ensued Wm. Duge struck McElveil on the neck with his fist, killing bim almost instantly. After Duge’s arrest search was instituted for the two mysterious women, but they were not found until after Ivy's arrest by Central Office Detectives Sheridan and Murphy at the road house in Yonkers. Her connection with the murder was revealed thr: hb newspaper clippings which she carried in her pocket. The two men will now be held as witnesses in | Duge’s trial. The disclorure of Lawrence's identity as Jacob Storms has increased the sensation which the case has caused in Yonkers. Storms lives vith his pretty young wife aud two children in Ashbarton avenite, Yonkers, CE He a responsible position wi Yonkers Beef Company. His wife comes from a prominent New York family. Until a few months ago Storms lived an apparently happy and thoroughly domestic life. About that time he inheritedgp small fortune and then beganit is mid, acareer of recklessness and deception. He began coming to New York frequently, and on one of these visits he met Mrs. White, whoxe husband had obtained divorce. Through them, it is said, he was introduced to Mra, Leck and then to 'y Roche. Mra. White introduced him as Harry Lawrence,” an old friend, and neither Some | Gen. Baker's seat is simply a bluff to let then | Ivy nor Mrs. Leck, it is said, were aware of the deception. Storms father, Caleb W. Storms of White Plains, qualified before Justice Ryan this morning and his son was released. peor erscy TODAY'S GREAT FOOT BALL GAME.
