Masea Throckmorton, Near Snickers- Ville, ix the Latest Sufferer—Barn and Valuable Stock Destroyed. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. ROUND HILL, Va., January 24.—For the third time within a few weeks a large incendiary fire has occurred in Loudoun county. About midnight Saturday the large stock barn on the farm of Mason Throck- morton, near Snickersville, was discovered to be in flames. The fire had wade such headway when Mr. Throckmorton and his men reached the barn that they were un- able to rescue any of the animals confined in it or save any property of material value. Eleven finely bred horses, thirty fat cat- tle, six milch cows and 130 sheep were de- stroyed. There was but $1,400 insurance on the barn and contents, and Mr. Throck- morton suffers a heavy loss. Of all the stock on the farm he has left but two colts, which happened to be running oui in an adjoining yard. The night was a stormy one and the men had put up every animal on the farm with the exception of these two. The fire was very evidently of incendiary origin, as ‘ne one had been in the barn since 6 o'clock the evening before. and the tracks of 2 horse were found leading up to the place and away. Mr. Throckmorton nas leen a magistrate for many years, and, it 1s said. has necessarily made many enemies in the line of his magisterial duties, but can- not think of any one who had @ gr against him of sufficient magnitu prompt such a revenge. The citizens of Loudoun are very much aroused by this series of incendiary and will petition the county authorities to employ a detective to work out what clues there are to the perpetrators. Frank Ashby, the colored boy who was suspected of setting fire to Joseph Lodge's barn three wecks ago, causing a loss of about $5,000, was last week released from cus- tody on the ground that there was no root against him. No clue has yet becn found to the incendiary that burned the large dairy barn of Mr. C. C. Mercier at Hamilton two weeks ago, in which forty milch cows perished. It is not believed here that :hose fires were set by the same person, but :9ther that wave of incendiarism is over the county, and th men who have grudges against well-te-do citizens seeing that property can be burned with impunity are imitating the successful revenge of their predecessors In crim. There was a large fire some distan: rectly south of this place early this mo It is not known yet whose p : : troyed, but from the illumination it was evidently a large barn full of hay or fodder. vents at Rockville.
