The fire originated in the hardware store of Hardman & Co., and spread rapidly in spite of the bucket brigade's effort to subdue it. Crawfordsville was called on for assistance, but could not respond before the fire had burned itself out. Four men at work on a roof were blown fifteen feet into the air. One alighted on the ground and was dangerously injured. Four tramps suspected of lighting the fire were arrested, but were later released for lack of evidence. While one portion of the town was burning the other was being sacked by thieves.

The loss on the building is $25,000: on the horses about $50,000, and the contents of the barns, cars, feed, etc., will bring the total loss to about $110,000. GamMer Must Co. Mayor Denny of Indianapolis, has Issued his first order. He sent for Superintendent Colbert, of the police force, and directed him to enforce all the laws against gambling and illegal liquor-selling. "I want the saloons closed on Sunday and after 11 o'clock," he said to the Superintendent, "and gambling in the city suppressed. I am in earnest in this matter and wish the order to go into effect at once and permanently." BoltLmore GeU It.

KO IMFKOVKMENT SEEN. Oun's Weekly Trade Review Finds No BUt tn the Clouds Yet & & Sun & Ca's Weekly Review of Trade sums up the situation as fallows: It Is difficult to detect any stent of improvement. While there have been some addition to the number ot manufacturing establishments and the number ot hands at work during the last week, it is becoming painfully clear that the orders obtained do not suffice to keep employed at full time even the limited force at iresent engaged. There Is on the whole less confidence regarding the future than there was a week ago. There Is not such encouragement as might bodeslrod In the industrial reports for the week. Fulluros continue to decrease In numbor and importance, though not as much as has been hoped. The movement of wheat has been fairly large .and tho price has declined about 2 cents, while corn has also yielded about 1 cent Coiton is a quarter higher without distinct reasons in crop prospects, and pork products are also somewhat higher, pork being 75 routs per barrel. It is possible that the surplus currency In circulation has its natural effect In stimulating speculative activity. Happily the chances thus far have not diminished the export of products, which continue fairly large. COST OF CHINESE DEPORTATION. Secretary Carlisle Things More than S10,OOO.OOO Will Be Needed. The Secretary of the Treasury has sent to the Senate a revised estimate of the cost of the deportation of the Chinese now lu the United States, in accordance with the provisions of the Geary law. 1 he statement is supplementary to that of 8ept 13, and increases the estimate of the total appropriation necessary from (6.000,000 to 810,333.000. A portion of this increase, $1,300,000, is duo to the fact that the steamship companies have Increased their rates tor the transportation of Chinese from San Francisco to Hong Kong from $33 to $31. Tho remaining portion of the increase Is due to the fact that the first estimate did not include the expenditure in the courts which the enforcement of the act renders necessary. The First Auditor of the Treasury gives the opinion that f 35 per capita will prove to be a low estimate of the cost under this head in California, while tho amount will be greatly increase! in other States.
BTJIXET FOR FAXXAS. The Spanish Anarchist Assassin Is Executed at Barcelona. Pallas, the anarchist who attempted to assassinate General Martinez de Campos, and who was condemned by a court-martial to be shot with his back to the firing party, was executed at 0 o'clock Friday morning In Barcelona.

Philadelphia 217, fee Paris. &j7,tS0 Chicago , ?1J,(!46 Never has tho World s Fair grounds presented such tin appearance as they did on Chicugo day. Vast crowds surged before tho g-atos long before li o'clock in tho morning. Every line of conveyance to the Fair was crowded to exceBS, every platform on the Illinois Central and on the elevated road, every streot crossing downtown was. black with people anxious to got to the Exposition. The Illinois Central trains were paoked, and poured people into the Fair by thousands. There never waa such a crash. By noon there were fully 400,000 people in tho grounds and they still poured in in huge streams through nearly seventy entrances. These made their way in great black columns, interspersed with color, to the court of honor, where the gilded goddess of liberty shone doubly bright in the sun's rays." The mammoth plazas east and west of the Administration Building were soon living masses ofjimanity, which cheered and laughed and shouted when the camion of Battery D began to thunder forth, from SINGING THE NATIONAL AIES points north, south, east and west of the Fair, its salute to the nations. This salute, at stated Intervals, occupied tho whole forenoon. A silence fell on the multitude when the "heralds of peace," attired in their gaudy costumes, began their fanfare of peace. These were stationed on tho peristylo, administration building, manufactures building, agricultural building, all turned toward the Goddess of Liberty, and played on their brazen instruments the motto, "Peace on Earth, Good Will Towards Men." When they ceased a prolonged cheer evidenced the enthusiasm of the multitude. Stream of Mighty Bielody. When on tho platform on the west plaza 2,000 voices sang "The StarSpangled Banner" the multitude, carried, away by their feelings, took up tho refrain, and a dull roar of harmony mounted to the heavens. It was beyond all description magnificent and AMj signs fail in faih weatiieh. grand. Following tho great burst of fcong tho united bands of the Exposition joined in playing "Dixie I .und, " "Maryland, My Maryland," and similar melodies awakened responsive chords In the hearts of the peoploThe chorus, orchestra, and band joined in "Columbia." A notable featuro of the occasion where everything was notable was the ringing of the new liberty bell. This look place at noon. Mayor Harrison, Standing by the bell when the hour of high noon struck, reached forth and swung the huge clapper amid the plaudits of the multitude which surrounded him and the blare of the trumpets and crash of the drums of the united bands. During this forenoon celebration tho chorus under Director Tomlins und Professor Katzcnborger sung from tho platform erected on the wnst side of the Administration Building "Die Wacht am Rhein." "Marseillaise," Austrian Hymn," "Russian Hymn," "Star Spangled Banner," and other national and patriotic hymns. Itvunlon of the (States. If the morning festivities were grand those in the afternoon fur outdid them. Tho plaza east of Administration building, facing the Court of Honor, was black with spectators. The "Reunion of States" was the grand spectacle which they had assembled to witness. As the Statos passed in review around th Court of Honor, represented by 3,000 school children from all parts of the city, cheer after cheer attested the interest and gratification of the vast audience. The review was divided into fivo sections. The first was led by a chorus Of 00 boys from the Diou&an choir,
followed by thirty-four youthsi ono selected from each ward in tho city, bearing a shield with the word "Welcome inscribed upon it, representing the great metropolis of Illinois. Then came thirteen young ladies prepresenting the thirteen original States, each bearing the shoild of tho particular State represented and wearing a crown with a star to indicate the sovereignty
"WHERE IS MOilMEll'" of each State. A company of twenty-four boys drossod in the Continental uniform and selected from the First Regiment of Illinois cadets contrasted pleasantly with the young girls who preceded" them. Then followed the States of tho Union, the six principal citios of each State represented by maidens bearing pennants. The States were in the order of their admission to the Union, and as State after State passed in review the cheering was loud IN TI1E TERMINAL PLAZA. and long. The whole affair lasted until late in the afternoon. I'u (-earn at Night. At night the most gorgeous pageant ever produced took place at the Fair, followed by tho mo t wonderful display of firework: it is possible to imagine. Twenty-live great iloats illustrated the arts, sciences, peace, war, Chicago, und the nations. It was like nothing. It had no dimensions to describe it, no heights to measure it, no tapes to circle it: it was simply ind-mprehensible. It was rretiter than Paris, greater than London, greater than Vienna, greater than all the talcs of numberless hordes of marauding barbarians: greater than ull the legends of ancient phalanxes, quudions and cohorts; greater than all the romances of pious pilgrimages, invasions and expeditions: greater than all the stories of embattled ret inues of sacking princes: greater than the dim yarns of the wild mobs of pillaging armies. Seven hundred and thirteen thousand six hundred and forty-six was the exact number of paid admissions. Half a million souls at a holiday in a town yet an infant, in a town without history, in a town but a score of years out from tho blackest, cruelest scourge that misfortune ever dealt. It was a glorious day glorious as to tbo weather, glorious as to tho occasion, glorious in its program, glorious in the mighty result which attracts tho attention of thinking mankind the 'world over. It was a day of great days. It was Chicago Day. Dark Side of the Day. Four killed and nearly a score injured. This is the record that Chicago day made at tho Fair. Tho explosion of a mortar during the fireworks display blew out the life of John Dryden, cable trains crushed Charles A. Clark and Thos. Robinson to death, while James Malcolm fell from the stops of tho intramural railway, breaking his neck. Tho management of such ,111 enormous gathering was a inattor of concern not only to tho city police but to the Columbian guards. The congested condition of the downtown streets, from an early hour in the morning until late at night, made the task a most difficult one, and the greatest precaution was used in trying to prevent panic and accidents. One hundred and fifty men and women fainted in the crush at tho alley "L" station. Forty women were taken away in the ambulance and patrol wagons, but not one was fatally hurt. VIGILANT A VICTOR. America Draws First Illoou in the international Yacht Kureg. Tho first of the series of great international yacht races was won easily by the famous Yankee craft, the Vigilant.

-AND
StomaehLiver CiiFe The Most Astonishing Medical Discovery of the Last One Hundred Years. It is Pleasant to the Taste as the Sweetest Nectar. It is Safe and Harmless as the Purest Milk. This wonderful Nervine Tonic has only recently been introduced into this country by tho proprietors and manufacturers of the Great South American Nervine Tonic, and yet its great value as a curative agent has long been known by a few of the most learned physicians, who have not brought its merits and value to the knowledge of the general public. This medicine has completely solved the problem of the enre of indigestion, dyspepsia, and diseases of the general nervous system. It is also of tho greatest value in the cure of all forms of failing health from whatever cause. It perforins this by the great nervine tonic qualities which it possesses, and by its g:'nt curative powers upon the digestive organs, tile stomach, the liver and the bowels. No remedy compares with this wonderfully valuable Nervine Tonic as a builder and strengthcner of the life forces of the human body, and as a great renewer of a broken-down constitution. It is also of more real permanent value in the treatment and cure of diseases of the lungs than any consumption remedy ever used on this continent. It is a marvelous cure for nervousness of females of all ages. Ladies who are approaching the critical period known as change in life, should not fail to use this great Nervine Tonic, almost constantly, for the space of two or three years. It will carry them safely over the danger. This great strengthencr and curative is of inestimable value to the aged and infirm, because its great energizing properties will give them a new hold on life. It will add ten or fifteen years to the lives of many of those who will use a half dozen bottles of the remedy each year. IT IS A GREAT REMEDY FOR THE CURE OF
Nervousness, Nervous Prostration, Nervous Headache, Sick Headache, Female Weakness, Nervous Chills, Paralysis, Nervous Paroxysms and Nervous Choking, Hot Flashes, Palpitation of the Heart, Mental Despondency, Sleeplessness, St. Vitus' Dance, Nervousness of Females, Nervousness of Old Age, Neuralgia, Pains in the Heart, Pains in the Back, Failing Health,
Summer Complaint of Infants. All these and many other complaints cured by this wonderful Nervine Tonic. NERVOUS DISEASES. As a cure for every class of Nervous Diseases, no remedy has been able to compare with the Nervine Tonic, which is very pleasant and harmless in all its effects upon the youngest child or the oldest and most delicate individual. Nine-tenths of all the ailments to which the human family is heir are dependent on nervous exhaustion and impaired digestion. When there is an insufficient supply of nerve food in the blood, a general state of debility of the brain, spinal marrow, and nerves is the result. Starved nerves, like starved muscles, become strong when the right kind of food is supplied; and a thousand weaknesses and ailments disappear as the nerves recover. As the nervous system must supply all
