Rakemann and Droop Have Worked to Assemble the Musicians. Mr. E. H. Droop, wko is associated with Mr. Herman Rakemann as the financial manager of the new symphony orchestra, in speaking to a Star repcrter today on the subject, said: “The plan of the organization was broach- ed to me about six weeks ago, and immedi- ately I recognized in it a possibility of es- tablishing a permanent orchestra, which will act not alone as an educator in mat- ters musical to the general public of Wash- ington, but it will also be a pride to the eity, as, on account of the rapid strides it has been making in recent years in the musical line, it is already regarded as a musical metropolis. “Mr. Herman Rakemann, the proposed leader of the new organization, and at the same time the originator of the idea, is a young man well known to the public of Washington, who through his steady at- tention and conscientious work in all mu- sical labors which he has undertaken has won for himself not alone the respect, but an eriviable position in the hearts of our truly musical citizens. The Work in Drilling an Orchestra. “If you for a moment consider the enor- mous work entailed in drilling a company of amateurs, and then the glorious results, which the Georgetown Orchestra achieved last year under Mr. Rakemahn’s able di- rection, how vastly greater will be the re- sults with a band of professional and train- AFFAIRS IN ALEXANDRIA ‘The Most Disastrous Conflagration in That _ ity in Many Years... Seve ral Houses Burned and a Lons of $25,000—Firemen Injured—Other = Interesting News, This city was visited yesterday afternoon by one cf the most disastrous conflagra- tions that has been its fate for many years past, ard damages to the amount of about $25,000 are the result. Shortly after 5 o'clock fire was discovered in the wood yard of Mr. Gecrge W. Jones, on Princess street between Payne and West, and it is supposed to have staried in the engine room. An alarm was turned in as prompt- ly as possible, but before the engines had arrived on the scene the fire had gained considerable headway and caught to Mr. Jones’ residence, adjoining, which was in a Icng frame row. It was evident that the firemen would have a hard fight, and they went bravely to work. The fire spread repidly: and ignited a pile of wood adjoin- ing the house of Mr. F. A. Scrivener, on the right, and soon that building was in flames. After fighting the fire for some time it was found that the burning build- ings could not be saved, so the streams Were turned on the surrounding buildings, in order that the fire might be confined as much as possible. About this time some- thing got wrong with the Hydraulion en- gine, and it only was able to throw a very peor stream. In addition to this, the heat from the burning buildings became so in- tense that it scorched Engineer Bontz, and the engine had to be moved to a distant plug. It was seen that nothing could save the row on Princess street, as eight houses were in a blaze, and Fire Warden Brill directed that the water of both engines be thrown on the houses on Payne street and the stables in the rear. The reserve engine, ‘Wm. A. Smoot,” which belongs to private Parties, was sent for and scon added two Streams to the battle against the flames, and by its aid the fire was kept within the limits, though the entire row of build- ings was burned to the ground, and nothing was left but a cl mass, with a totter- ing chimney here and there. Extent of the Loan, The losses are heavy and only partially covered by insurance. Mr. H. K. Scrivener Jest a good many household goods. ‘The houses were ‘owned mainly by Aitche- son & Bro., and were valued at $10,000. The dwelling, store and wood yard were owned by Mr. George Jones, and were val- ued at $3,000. In the rear were several stables, which are also a total loss. Some contained horses, but they were taken out before the bulldings caught fire. ‘These stables cdl at $500, and were partially iny su Mr. Barney Simpson's house, 328 North Payne street, was partially burned, but his loss is covered by insurance. There was only about $4,000 insurance on Mr. Aitche- fon’s houses, and their value was about $10,000. It is estimated that the total loss, tated, will reach $25,000, while the in- rove.” | *ald to be not more than about ° During the fire Mr. Edward S. Lead- beater, who is an old fireman, and was at one time chief of the fire while removing some telephone wires from the roof, caught hold of a live wire and re- ceived a severe shock. His left hand was badly burned, and he had to be carried to his home. He is said to be all right today with the exception of a badly burned hand. William Simpson, a member of the Colum- bia Fire Company, was struck on the head by a-beam falling on him. His head was slightly cut. ‘ Considering the fact that the fire depart- ment is 2 purely volunteer one, and the city has no reliable fire alarm system, ed musicians under the leadership of a man | O'clock until long after 8 last sient bees who has demonstrated what he can do. This is not a question, but it is a bare fact which stares us boldly in the face. “With the exception of the Boston Sym- phony Orchestra, I may safely say that all of the professional organizations heard here in concert last winter were heard at a disadvantage on account of not having had proper rehearsals. “The new symphony orchestra to be formed will have this great advantage. that the majority of the men being local musicians, will be required to sign an agree- ment, when finally entering into a contract for their services, whereby they wil be re- quired to attend such rehearsals as Mr. Rakemann may call. Shall Be No Cause for Jenlousy. “Having for years identified myself with nearly all the movements pertaining to the advancement of musical art in this city, my fordest wish is to see this orchestra a success. There is no pecuniary advantage for me to be derived from the financial management, and the only reason I can assign for being asked to the position is that I have had experience in this line be- fore. Because I happen to.be in the piano business, that shall not influence my action in any respect in regard to the orchestra. In no instance shall an artist who may be engaged to assist the orchestra at any of its concerts be required to play any par- ticular make of piano. He may play what he chooses, be it a Steinway, Chickering, Krabe, Decker, Kimball or any other make. So there ought not and cannot justly be any ground for feelirg on that score. Both Mr. Rakemann and myself have had suffi- cient experience to know that any handi- cap as to a particular instrument would be decidedly injurious to the welfare and suc- cess of any musical organization. “Our chief object in organizing this or- chestra is as follows: First, the advance- ment of musical culture in Washington. By that we mean to present at each con- cert such a grade of high-class music as will be both pleasing and instructive, and which will interest everybody. Secondly, that when the organization is once put on a firm footing we intend charging such prices as will enable those who cannot af- ford to pay the high prices demanded by the largest organizations of the country May at least have a chance to hear the glorious works of the old and modern mas- ters performed in a manner-which we hope will leave sligat room for criticism. + Thanks for Encouragement. “This may sound ambitious, but it is the goal for which we are working, and which we hope to obtain through the kind en- couragement and assistance of those who are in sympathy with our movement.

The Proposition Made to the Haw- ailan Government. A cable proposition of a definite character has been made to the Hawaiian govern- ment by Col. Z. 8S. Spaulding, a wealthy sugar planter, who recently returned from Europe. The offer seems to be made in good faith and has been received with favor by President Dole and his cabinet. The matter will come up in the Hawalian sen- ate on the 28th, and it is thought that the upper house will ratify a contract for the construction cf the cable. The proposition is to build from San Francisco, or in the near vicinity, to Hono- lulu, a branch line being bullt to connect the other islands of the group. Spaulding wants $50,000 a year for twenty years, the government to have the right to use both systems for the transmission of official messages free of charge up to the sum mentioned per annum, reckoning at the regular rates charged. One clause provides for the exclusive privilege cf landing cables on this terri- tory for the term of twenty years, such privilege not to be constructed, however, as conflicting with any right the govern- ment of the United States may possess by virtue of any existing treaty. The promoter agrees to have the cable in working order by October 1898, if he is successful In obtaining subsidies from both the United States and Hawaii. The United States Congress will be asked to appropriate $100,000 for twenty years. Large crowds of people visited the scene last night, and all day today the inhab- itants of the burned buildings could be seen searching about for their property which had been saved, though damaged.

At an early hour this morning OfMicer James Griffin learned that a colored woman named Georgianna Franks had been fight- ing with her friend, Henry Graham, on Saturday night, so he procured a warrant for their arrest. When he went after the woman she saw him coming and struck out on a dead run. She got a good start on the officer, but he followed her across fields and over fences, until they reached Four Mile run, when the woman started to wade cr swim across. When she found she could not do so she returned and gave herself up to the officer, and he brought her to Alex- andria on a local train. When Officer Griffin arrived at the station house he had hardly regained his breath and looked as if he had been inrough a threshing machine; his clothes were badly torn by the barbed wire and other fences through which he had crawled in the wild chase, and he was covered with mud. “I am a little dis- figured, but I caught my bird,” was his smiling remark to the captain when asked about his condition.
