In Mains The Xess Kstimated at 14,000,0OO Story of tin- n wife-Spreading; Flames. A Ppoknno Fulls (W. T.) dispatch of the Cth inst. say"ss The entire bur less portion of the city, with tho e ption of one mill, was destroyed ' 'ire Sunday night The :. ss will roach ' OOD.000 .The ldaxe started in a lodg- . jouae on Knilway aveuuo at o'clock i lie evening arid burned until W idajr .ning. A large number of Ci.nn ' ; Mings mid several (;raiii Jovators ro : r Uie lodging hou-o and soon after tlo i Vro'i0 out tuy wci ali!a?.e. strong wi'ld was blowing t-wni-d tho y lit tl time, nnd ' fi'itf .WttrO was soon yond tile oontrol of the firemen. Tf.' J.'.ro leaped from street to streit and nothing could be donn but Jet the iinmfts have their own way until they reached the river nnd then endeavov to prevent the iiro from reaching the buildings on the opposite side. -- The flames swept through the iity and ens business block after uuotlier was consumed, everything being burned to the water's edge. The Are druarlou-ut was stationed on the other side of the stream and prevented flying embers from fettin Ore to the buildings there. Only a (V indwellings were destroyed, as the residoni o portion ot the city was not visited by the nre. The water supply proved totally inadequate, and firemen a well as citizens became panic-stricken. Several people are known to have perished in the flames and several more were injured by leaping from windows. Charles Davis of Chicago, a guest at the At lington house, was awakened by flames bursting through the doors of his room in the third story. He jumpted trom the window, was shockingly mangled, nod died in a few minutes. BPOXANB FAIXS A woman whose name is unknown leaped front the second story of the Paeillc hotel and was killed. The fire spread with such astonishing rapidity that it Is believed many were shut iff from escape before they were aware of their danger. By order of the Mayor a dozen large buildings were blown up with giant powler, but even this failed to check the Barnes. The Northern Pacific is probably the heaviest loser, the passenger depot and magnificent now freight wan house being destroyed. Its loss, including freight burned, will reach about $1,000,000. All provisions and supplies were burned, and there will be much suffering for several days. . Appeals for help have been sent ut, and Portland, Seattle, Tscoms, and leveral neighboring towns hava already responded. The fire started at 7 o'clock p. m. in a bdglng house on Railroad avenue. The Ire department was on the scene quickly, mt owing to a lack of water the fire spread o an adjoining frame building, and was loon beyond control. The flames jumped lcrow the street to the Buss house and Pacific hotel. By this time a strong wlud iprung up, and it was evident tho city was loomed. The fire spread with fearful rapidity and the firemen were powerless. An attempt was made to check the fire by slowing up buildings in its path, but it was iseless. From the Pacific hotel the fire lumped across First street to the frame uildings in the next block. Boon it reached the heart of the city. A block of two-story brick buildings on Riverside avenue next went. From here the fire was mmmunicated to the magnificent Hyda olock, a four-story building, taking in the whole block between Mills aud Howard itreets on Riverside avenue. The fire saped across Howard street, and in a few statutes the block between Howard and Stevens streets was reduced to ashes. The lext to succumb was the large Tull block. From there the fire swept the solid block jf four-story brick buiidiugj, including the postofnee, between Stevenirand Washingn streets, and here burned out from lock if material. From the point of beginning tbe fire iook another direction, leaping across Sprague street to tbe Opera House block. Prom it the flames leaped Biveraido avenue io Brown's bank and both sides of tbe ivenue were in flames, Tbe block between Post and Hill streets was quickly licked ip, including tbe Grand botol. From here die flames were communicated to the' block in tbe right. Here was the Frankfort Mock, the largest building in tbe city, taring cost $250,000. It withstood tho Ire for soma time, but finally succumbed. The Arlington hotel was next to go. From the Arlington the fire traveled Perth and consumed tho block between Howard, Main, Front, and Stevens streets, Burning east as far as the latter street, where a vacant lot checked further progress in that direction. Everything in a northerly direction, including the Northern Pacific express, Union block, and Windsor hotel, was soon a mass of flames. The river prevented the fire doing further damage and was a means of saving big flouring and lumbar mills. By this time, in the short space of three sours, tbe fire had consumed everything in Its path, reducing to ashes the entire business portion of the once beautiful oily. Tho only business block left standing is the Crescent building, J which was saved by tearing down Intervening buildings. Owing to the rapidity wltbwhioh it spread scarcely anything was saved. Provisions Ire scarce and will last only a short time. The city council met this moruiug and appointed a oommittee on relief. Provisions will be sent for and tbe needy supplied. Individual losses as far aa known rre is follows: Houey, Mason, Marks & Co., wholesale oardware $135,000; the Great Eastern wholesale 0 and retail dry-goods house, r100, 000; the "Whit House," wholesale tnd retail, $80,000; Lowenburg Bros., 1100,900; Benham & Griffiths, wholesale grocers, $40,000; Mason, Smith & Co., grocers, $40,000: Padflo hotel, $40,000; Grand hotel, $10,000; Windsor, $25,000; Hyde block, $70,'l00; Washington block, 165,000; Crescent, $1)0,000; Cannon block, $20,000, Moore block, $30,000; First national bank block, $5,. 900; Wolverton block, $25,000: Frankfort block, $125,000; Tull blcok, $75,000. The disaster is undoubtedly far more serious than that which overtook Seattl", both on account of its great extent and tbe more substantial character of the burned buildings. No account of losses has yet been received. The Western Union office was burned out and all instrument soept on, which an operator It now working on a dry goods box just outaidt

the Bout and lumber mills were saved. Spokane was one or the most prominent of the many new cities in the infant State of Washington. Situated on the line of the Northern Pacific railroad close to the Ca'ur d'AIene mining region, the city has boon the site for many large Industrial establishments, such as smelters and kindred enterprise. Expensive public sdifloes bad also been recently erected, and the population was easily supporting two prosperous daily papers. The businesB district of Spokane was In a strip between the Northern Pacific railroad tracks and the Spokane river. This strip was Ova squares across, and extended about seven squares iu length. It was solidly built up with brick and stone structures, the cost ot which varied from 35,000 to gm.OOO.

Tiie rommi. os on a World's exposition bre in 1892 met Friday and it was determined to immediately open a general headquarters noar the hotel center of the city and to put to work as BEFORE Tits FfRB. speedily as possible such a force of clerks and employes as may be re lutroa to conduct the correspondence, receive visitors from neighboring States, encourage their co-operation in the movement, and perform the vast amount of labor incident to tbe location of the international show. A headquarters committee was. therefore appointed by tbe Mayor, consisting of C. H. Schwab, JF. I. Fearce and E. F. Cragin. This preliminary ovar the financial problem was considered. James W. Scott gave valuable Information concerning the contributions, for tbe centennial exposition at Philadelphia, and set forth the a 1 vantages of an early announcement that Chicago has perfected its organization for the contest for tbe great exposition of 1892. He advised the formation of a stock company with ample capital, to be organized under 'the law of the State of Illinois. This proj osition met with marked favor. Mr. C. L, Hutchinson had moved the ap. pointment of a committee of five to formulate a financial scheme for the committee, and to report how much money will probably be necessary and the most feasible way of procuring it These two suggestions were harmonized by directing this comittee to apply for articles of incorporation of the "World's Exposition of 1892," the capital stock to be $5,000,000, The Mayor named as the committee, Messrs. C. L. Hutchinson, James W. Scott, Jesse Spalding, J. I. Fearce and W. C. Seipp and Lyman J. Gags and Mr, J. B. Carson. This committee will promptly determine upon the first active steps to be taken to put tbe machinery In motion. The executive committee will meet again on Tuesday, by which time it is believed publio announcement of the plan to be adopted can be made. WHEAT "CORNERa" Their Effect oa Our Foreign Grata Trade. Washington, Aug. 4. -The State Department is in receipt of an exhaustive report upon Russian agriculture and cereal trade from Charlton H.Way, United States consul-general to St. Petersburg. He says the export of cereals from Russia in the last two years show an abnormal increase, due to three causes th enormous crops gathered from both the black lands and the arable prairies, the depreciation of the paper ruble, aud the foolish practice of "corners" in tha United States. "The arable lands of Russia in Europe," Mr. Way says, "exoluding Poland, cover an area of 450,000 square miles. The wheat grower of Kansas and Dakota will see at a glance tbe area of that fertile territory, which, with the cheap labor ot Russia, will always prove to I e a formidable rival; and the merchants of Chicago and New York who imagine that by cornering wheat they will control the markets of the world can always take into thou" calculations the product of this country as an effectual check to tbeir operations. Every 'corner engineered in the United States makes an opportunity for Russia. Not one dollar is added to the import of wealth in America, but exports from our country being stopped, Russia steps in and gets rid of her surplus at remunerative pri'.-es, but still far below the prohibitive values established iu Chicago and New York. As long as Itussian wheat exists any attempt to force the western nations ot Europe to pay artificial prices for Amerioan wheat can but resi'S in absolute failure." Bold Diamond Bobbery at Kansas City'. Kkssas Citv, Mo., Aug. 4. At 3 o'clock Friday afternoon a well-dressed roan riding a sorrel horse rode up to Altman's jewelry store at 718 Main street. He dismounted, letting the borca stand without hitching, and went into the store. He asked to look at some diamonds which had been shown ulm tho previous day.
