CAPERS* LATEST STUNT.
Appoints Negro on Pension Examination
Hoard anil Thereby
Hangs a Tale.
Special to tho State.
Greenville, July 4.?The recent
allusion in print to the appointment
of a pension examining
board for Greenvillo by the
United States authorities have
been vague and enigmatical for
fhn mnot ' **?
vuv.uiudi ^?ii, buu i?n persons i
realized there wrs probability 1
of such an appointment being
made, since Uncle Sam had few
pensioners as yet in this part of
his possessions.
The Spanish war and the Philippine
war have produced a ue w
crop of veterans, and they are not
slow to accept the liberality of the
government which has been energized
by that other claes of veter- 1
ana who saved the union from
the onslaughts of a raged, half j
starved army of "rebels" in the
sixties. Hence with the increasing
supply medical examining
board here and there, and as only
Gharleston, Columbia and Beau- 1
M i. ? * ' * "
i ore a re supplied with these
appendices of the war department
why should Greenville not secure
a board to examine present
and prospective pensioners? And
thereby hangs a tale not unmixed
with the progressive politics of
the day.
The genesis of the suggestion
for an examining board hero is
not necespary to a clear understanding
of what follows, but it
is well to remark that the new (
commissioner of pensions at
Washington. Mr. Eugene K. Ware!
of Wisconsin, has a close relative!
in this city, I)r. G. H. Hottum, a
most estimable man, who has been
living in the nouth for quite
awhile, but. who was reared in
the north, and is a mild type ofl
Republican in politics when it)
comes to voting in national elections,
buf a SturdV Ikmnrmt in I
local affairs.
The suggestion for an examining
board wi* duly referred to
Cap!. .John (J. Capers, formerly |
a citiren of (rreenville, who is I
umpiring the game of politics
just miw to suit the purposes of
the fwdoral administration in
South Carolina, and the umpire
discovered that it was necessary
to have two Republicans and one
Democrat in order to constitute
a legal, duly inaugurated board
of inquiry as to the ailments and
infirmities of pensioners.
It wus stipulated from Washington
that Dr. Bottum was to
become a member of the board,
and Mr. Capers very naturally
proposed Dr.G.Tupper Swandale,
one of the foremost physicans in
the city, should be another member,
who would be properly assigned
as a Democrat. So far
there was plain sailing, and neither
of the gentlemen had any
objection to serving on the
board or to serving with each
other, but in a few days it was
announced to them by Mr. Ca
pers that the third member
would be Dr. W. T. Smith of this
city, who would be asigned aa a
Republican.

and mostly white, as the
negroes have not taken kindly to
this patronymic but this instance
there is a notable exception, as
Dr. 8raith is a colored man. Ue is
respectable and doubtless capable
and is a former resident of Sumter,
but the color line on the
third member was not at all
satisfactory to his proposed colleagues,
who immediately declined
the honors that were awaiting
them. Thus the matter
stands at this writing and it
remains to be seen what Mr. Capers
will do with the proposition
now before him, with the colored
brother lingering as it was in the
lap of oflical luxury, "solitary
and olone," after the fashion of
the horseman in the ancient
novel.

GREAT FIRE IN CHICAGO.
Hwilt and Company's Big Packing
Plant. Million Dollar
> Loss.
Chicago, July 5.?By a fire
, which broke oat in their plant at
the stock yards tonight, Swift <fe
Co. suffered a loss which is estimated
by the olficials at $1,000,-j
000. The fire was confined to one
building standing at the intersection
of Packers avenue and
Broadway. This structure was
four stories high, built of brick,
and was 300 feet square.
The first fioor was occupied by
the wholesale meat market of the
company, the second by the shipping
department and the third
and fourth by the general ollices
of the company. The latter are
said to have been the largest
single offices in the United States
more than bOO employes working
on one of the lloors in a single
room.
The cause of the fire is not
known, but it was discovered
near the engine room. It spread
so rapidly through the building
that it was found impossible to
o rn onw$Li?%? ? 1
D?<v> hi iiie structure.
The burned building adjoins
portions of the plants of Armour
<fc Co., and Libby, McNeil A Libby,
and for a time the fire department
had a desperate fight to
keep these buildings from the
dames. W. J. McGomgle, the
superintendent of the plant, said
tonight that the loss will aggregate
fully one million.
The loss is fully covered by in- i
surauce.

Chicago, July 5.?The InterOcean
tomorrow will Ray : Combinations
of the companies controlling
tho packing industry of
the United States has finally been
consummated, with John D.
Rockefeller as the central figure
in the financial part of the negotiations.
Final arrangements
have been made for the consolidation
of the Swift and Armour
interests, which have recently
gained control of the ether (packing
concerns throughout the|
country.
The final steps, which were
taken today, require merely the
merging of the Swift and Armour
interests. There are, it is said,
Dne or two companies not yet
wholly under this control, but
negotiations are pending with a
favorable outlook. Swift A Co.,
who own the Sioux City stock
yards, aud the Libby, McNeill A
Lib by company business, recently
secured control of a majority of
the stock of the Anglo-American
Packing company.
Armour & Co., have secured
control of the G. II. Hammond
Packing company and part of the
Fowler interests and have been
negotiating for the Cudahy
Packing company and Nelson,
Morris A Co., while Sul/.berberi
