A BLOOMING DEMOCRATIC
FLOWER.
New York Aug. 9. Tho Loudon
correspondent of the World cables
as ioiiow : koscwcu r. lower wno
for tho last week has been going in
and out of Paris was interviewed
yesterday. Ho said that ho would re
turn to New Yorlr rcry shortly be-
causo lie desired to study tho coming
campaign. He thinks that CI vo-
land's prospects aro very slim for u-
clcction. Tho recent desertion - .
tho mugwump republicans hi- ( i! i ci
tho pegs from undor jmu. Mo
doca not' lean r:on itiir -
Illnino or Sherman as tlio ohoico of
republican party but considers that
Chauncey M. Dcpcw is tho coming
man. Ho acknowledges however
thattho Dr. McGlyun combination is
tjoworlul and that tho favor of this
now party must now becomo a promin-
ent factor iu tho question.
Ho thinks that President Clovoland
has minscd his chance and that his un-
fortunate roinarks in which ho said
hit was a purely exccutlvo ofllco Las
provented his boiug popular oilher
with tho Democrats in tho house or
tho Republicans in tho senate.
GREAT MYSTERIOUS FIRE.
New York Aug. 9. Tlio World's
Loudon correspondent says regard
tho mysterious destruction of Wbito-
loy's great establishment. Tho fire is
romarkablo mainly on account of tho
mystery couucctcd with it. In the first
pluco Whitoly is a pioneer tradesman
who lias revolutionized cutiroly tho
methods of dolus; business iii Loudon.
From a small shop keeper iu 1802 ho
lius advanced to tho position tho head
of tlio cntiro retail merchants of Etiropo
Ho has established ia Loudon a mon-
ster building and sells everything
known to any trade. His great stores
tako iu tho wares of tlio butcher bak-
er druggist jewelry hardwaro and
iu fact everything sold in auy shop in
Loudon. His custom amounts to
millions of pounds annually of courso
ho has thereby injured greatly tho
trado of every small dealer in Loudon.
By buying in such enormous quanti-
ties ho is practically ablo to control
tho prices of every Btaplo. His loss at
this liro is jC500000. It is his tilth
disastrous liro within as many years.
Watchmen aro on guard yet
at regular intervals and iu spito of
every precaution fues break out.
That they aro tho work of an incon-
dary is certain. Tho lire of Saturday
broke out iu tweuty different places.
Mr. Wiiitely has boon shuunod by tlio
insurance) companies for many years
ho cannot obtain insuranco at auy
prico. Ho has to bear tho gignntio
loss alone. Ho lias olfcrod thousands
of pounds to discover hisenomle? but
as yot without avail. It is bolicved
that from tho trades men of Loudon
who liavo been injured by his great
success havo coiiio the means for
inflicting upon him such terrible loss-
os. This tiro has also demonstrated
tho utter inadequacy of tho London
tiro brigade It called out tho cntiro
liro iorce aud occupied it for twelve
hours.
It' any liro had broken out in any
other direction at tho sumo timo tho
iiro brlgado could not havo attended
to it. Loudon to-day is in a condition
nearly as dangerous as when tho great
liro of tho sevoutcoth century broko
out. Thero has been a long drought
tho water is vory low and tho engines
aro not up to tho standard.
