FIRE IN A CHURCH.
A PANIC AVERTED. Received June 10, 9.10 a.m. BERLIN, June 9. Incendiaries set fire to the Dominican Church of St. Paul in Berlin. The priests, on learning of the outbreak, closed the service, and walked down the aisles, whispering to the two thousand worshippers to leave quietly. A panic was thus averted. The roof and a portion of the belfry were destroyed.
