, ITALY IN FINE ART EXHIBIT Sections Devoted to Decorative Arts of Hungary and Italy Were Destroyed Amounting to $300.000 Electricity Started Fire. Publish??- Press! Milan. Italy, Aug. 3. Fire which broke out in the International exposi tion did extensive damage. The sec- i tions devoted to the decorative arts ; of Italy and Hungary were totally de- j stroyed, as also was the pavilion in which were installed the exhibiTs of j Italian and Hungarian architecture, j The damage is estimated at $n00,OO0. Four firemen and five carbineers were injured. The fir1 was discovered in the Hungarian section and spread rapidly to the art sections in an adjoining park. For a time the British, Swiss, Japanese and Netherlands sections wore threatened, but by energetic work the firemen succeeded in saving them. The jewelry and fine arts sections were also threatened, but a large force of carbineers carried the pictures, many of them of almost priceless value, from the gallery of fine arts into the corridors of the upper sections beyond the fire zone. The city was thrown into a state of great excitement and vast crowds of people collected. The firemen succeeded in saving all except the Italian and Hungarian sections, though dangerous sparks fell on the German, Persian, Turkish and Chinese sections. Some of the estimates place the loss as high as $2,400,000, which probably is excessive. The origin of the fire is attributed to an electric short circuit. The authorities reject the theory that the conflagration was of incendiary origin. Sveaborg Mutiny Over. Helsingfors, Aug. 3. Sveaborg fortress is completely in the hands of the government.

Food to the Canal Diggers it to Be Bought Wherever It Is the Cheapest. SLAP AT COMBINATION CANAL COMMISSION DECIDES TC BUY IN LIMITED QUANTITIES IN ORDER TO KEEP WITHIN CONTRACT BOUNDS. Publishers' Press Washington, Aug. 3. Provision trusts and combinations in the isthmian canal zone succeeded in increasing the price of meats, vegetables and fruits more than 100 per cent, and forced the isthmian canal commission to adopt a resolution at a recent meeting enabling its agents to buy supplies in the open market and without advertising for bids. Members of the commission say they discovered that all the dealers in provisions who had sufficient capital to furnish the bond required of bidders on supplies pooled their interests and cornered the contracts for all vegetables, meats and fruits required for the commission hotels and mesRes. The combination was in a position to demand prohibitive prices, and the commission was forced to change its methods and enable small dealers and producers to compete for the business. As a safeguard the commission's resolution provides that not more than $500 worth of supplies is to be bought daily in the open market with-, out asking for bids. This limits the purchases in open market to perishable provisions. kinkadeYustained Cleveland Judge Decides Against Ice Men On All Points. Toledo, O., Aug. 3. Judge Babcock In common please court handed down his decision in the ice cases, sustaining Judge Kinkado in every particular and exonerating him of having made any promise or suggestion of leniency 33 claimed by the attorneys for the Ice trust. The judge declared the contentions of the attorneys for the trust to be ridiculous and should never have been brought Into court. Were it not for the fact that the Ice men's attorneys succeeded in getting into circuit court on error, the defendants would at once have to go to the workhouse. Technically their cases are yet pending in the upper court, although Judge Babcock's decision removes the case entirely from the circuit court. That court, however, is adjourned until the middle ot September and sentences are suspended until the court meets and decides It has nothing further to do with the cases. Should the attorneys for . the ico men appeal from Judge Babcock to the circuit court, which they are likely to do, that court will either send the cases back for rehearing In common pleas court, or by declaring there is no error cut off the last hope of tho ice men to escape inipristMiment. Troops to Protect Prisoners. Frankfort, Ky., Aug. 3 The Frankfort and Ilarbourvlllo companies of state guards were ordered by Governor Beckham to go on duty at Barboursville Tuesday to protect during their trial the negro man and woman charged with the murder of a Mrs. Broughton last week.
