Son in the force employed at the bureau
on the 30;h inst. The force was recently
reduced one-third by Chief Barrill, in cou-
•t aif rue of a discontinuance of the print-
irwofvl and $2 notes. It was expected
that the work on these notes would be re-
samed after a abort interval, but the indi
cations now are that there will be no tro.-e
orders for notes of these denominations
for some time to come. The formal trans
fer of the office of chief of the bureau from
Capt Burrill to Mr. Graves will take place
oo the 1st proximo. It is stated as a sin
gular fact tbat there were more Democrats
than Republicans employed in the bureau
under the last administration.
The President will probably visit New
York on the 30th instant, to participate in
the local observance of Decoration day.
The President to day issued an executive
order cl wing all the government depart

Peihap* Fatal Affray Naur Haddock'
Station Yesterday.
Milledoiville, Ga., May 27.—Quite
tragedy was enacted nenr Had iock'a 8ta
tion thti morning about half an hour by
inn, the principals being Mr. 8. H. Lane
and Mr. Wm. M. Whitten, both of whom
stand well in their settlement.
Your correspondent sought out Mr. Lane
and obtained from him the following ain’e-
meat: On Monday evening Mr. Line
went to Mr. Whitten's store and told Lira
Lewis golrg to Macon by Tuesday morn
ing’s train, and asked If he could do any
thing for him whils there. Whitten five
Mr. Lane $o and a*ked hint to pay it to a
party on hii account. To this Mr. Line
proposed to add I10.S5, which he owed
Whitten, fo which the latter assented.
Mr. Lane rose early Tuesday morning
and itarted to Haddock's, bit hal hardly
time to have proceeded n ore than a mile,
before Whitten knocked at Mra. Line’s
bed room d )or, anti oaked he r to lend him
a »aw. Mrs. Lane was tn bed and told him
she would hand it to him when she got up.
When sae ha l dreaied, she went out the
back door, leaving the front door locked.
Whitten weut through the psnage to the
back way. following Mrs. Line ir.tUhe
dining rojm. She handed him the saw.
which he refused to take, whereupon she
asked a .second time It be
wished the saw. He still refused
and made u-e of some ungentlemnnly re
mark*, repeating them the fourth time.
Mrs. Lane all the while ordering him out,
an t stating tbat she would inform Mr.
Lane of his conduct. At this juncture a
r.cjro boy who was hired on the plae* ap
peared, seeing whom Whitten left the
home, going in a cirectinn opposite from
home and toward Mr. SYesley Bonner’s,
but returned in a very short while and
called Mrs. Lane, telling her he did not
want the yaw and didn’t know what he
was thinking aiwst to in*.u.t her; made an
Gijrt i) apoiag ze, which she refused to
hear, and again ordered him to leave.
Whitten then went toward home
and return*-! again ihcrtly afterward. Hi
called Mrs. Line ***verttl times, but she re
faied to listen at him ami again ordered
him to leave.
When Mr. Lane returned from Ma?on
hii wife told him what ha-1 occurred, f hii

Herman’s Furrhu-e FHCtory Entirely Da-
strozed--The Loss Heavy.
New York, May 27.—The vail furniture
factory of Herman Bros., Rt Mangin and
Tompkins streets, was -vered to be on
e at 3:30 o'clock thi- im rning. It is a
hve-story brick building, and occupies a
whole b'osk, fronting 200 feet on Delaney
and 1000 feet on the ether streets. Itwui
the old bollding ociupied by the Kicger
Sewing Machine Factory. The whole
building is surrounded by miserable
tenement hou^e*. occupied by the
poorest c'aifei in the city. The fire
was intensely hot, and nearly a hundred
families were driven from their homes.
They rushed out in th« .r n gh: clothes and
were coiup* l*-d to camp ji tit-river side
where they shivered in the chiily winds of
morning. At four o’c’o:k the whole
building wan in flames, and there was no
hope of saving any of the property, and
firemen directed tneir efforts
making the miserable peo
ns comfortable as possible.
At 4:30 this morning alarms were sent|out
for extra engines, and it looked as though
the whole surrounding neighborhood
would be destroyed. At 6 o’clock alarms
w**re still being sent «< it for extra engines.
The reason the flames rpreid so r»j idly
on account of the oil in the lloors.
The factory was tilled w.tli furniture, and
is estimated that the loss will amount to
more than one mil ion dollars. This is the
hu\v season of the year, and tn*' loss
will be (till heavier for the company
by this reaic n. Over three hundred men
will be thrown out of work.
The streets at 5:30 a. ro. were crowded
with peoo'e and the greatest excitement
prevailed in the neighborhood, as every
body in the surrounding tenement house*
was moving furniture and teekieg to es
cape from th* tl mi's, which were fast
spree-ling in all directions. Surerinten-
deut Piunon, of the factory, said it wm
impos-ib e to say where the’tire originated
but it was believed that it had started in
the engine rooms. At .V.’in o’clock this
morning special calls for extra engines
were being sent ont, and it was estimated
that the loss would amount to $1.500/n0.
Though the e »tire available f jrce of the
lire department was summoned it was two
hours before the Himes were fatrly under
control. The li »mes «r** ! timing fiercely
In the ruins yet, but all danger of their
‘urlber spread lias pasted. Tue factory, a
five story brick building, is a total loss.
Mr. Herman cs'imatcs his I its at about
9250.UU0, which is covered by insurance
large number of companies
The loss on the building, that is owned by
•»stat«\ he estimates at near^3<o/o0.
This, too is cover* d to a large extern by
insurance. Five hundred ►killed workmen
were employed in trie factory, and lose all
their toon the aggregit** value of which
is about $20,000, and on thesi there are
onlv scattered Mims of iun'ance.
Later advices place thedsnisgc by the
fire at the following figures: Stock of H.
Herman, $250000: building. $'-OO.OCO;
damage to adjoining property, $22,000;
nrkmen's tools, $20J)00—total, $302,000.
