Cincinnati,

April J.—At

o'clock

Wednesday evening a fire broke out on tlie steamer (Jolilvn Utile, lyin at the foot Main street. lietween the (Iolden Utile and the shore was the steamer Fleetwood with steam up and ready to pull out for tip the river. The tiold11 Utile was booked to leave at o'clock for New Orleans, and had fifty or more passengers on board. panic ensued. A dozen or more jumped into the river, while all the other passengers eseaped by jumping from the Golden Utile to the Fleetwood, thence getting safely on shore.

Five Uves 1.11st.

Thus far five lives are known to have been lost. These are: Miss Nellie Maloney: Frank Ueill.v. second mate Jim Madison, mate Nat llomer, white (leek hand, and an unknown woman. Mrs. Kaston, of Add.vston, suburb of this city, is also missing, and it is feared she is lost.. Three or four others who were known to have been on the boat, but whose names were not obtained, are missing, and the death list may be inreasi to ten or more. None of the bodies have been recovered, although searchers are dilligently at work. Miss Maloney jumped into the river between the steamers Golden Uu4e and Fleetwood and her body is supposed to be near the, scene of the disaster. Site lost her presence of mind completely when the lire, broke out and could have saved herself, having had ample time to escape to shore by way of the Fleetwood. All of the victims so fatas known are Cincinnati :rnd (.ovington people.

Origin ot tlie lire.

The fire originated on the lower deck of the Golden Utile by one en me deck hands setting a lamp 011 a barrel of varnish. In a llash the Humes communicated to the rubbish and thence to the lighter freight. In twenty minutes the whole .structure was enveloped in a mass of lire. The boat was not immediately released from the wharf. Hy reason of this the llig Sandy wharf boat was soon ablaze and before tlie fire department, which was duly summoned as hastily as possible, could do anything was also doomed. The burning boat soon broke loose fi 0111 its moorings and started to drift down the. stream. By the time it had proceeded 50 feet it was burned to the water's edge. As soon as the fire was discovered all the other bouts at the landing were cut loose and steered out into the cuiv rent. "v..' •:?.•••' 1^

Tlie I.osk.

The Golden Utile, Capt. O. P. Sluukle, was worth Silo.000. It had a fine cargo estimated at £i0,000. Everything was burned in less than ntt hour. The wharfboat was filled with merchandise, the value of which could only be guessed at. All the books of the oflice were lost. The wharfboat was insured for SIS,500 in the Httreka Fire & Marine Company. The steamer Golden Utile was insured for $15,000. •,

Conflagration Visits Mandalay, •ho Capital of liurumh—Thousands of Families Ilnuicloss—Hundred* of Lives Lost.

C.u.CfTTA, April 1. Dispatches from Mandalay, the capital of Utirmah, sav that three-fourths of the city is now in ashes and the fire has not been checked. Among the buildings already

rone

depots

are the. old palace, the new government telegraph oflice and two eonrents. The whole business portion of the city lias been swept rway. The toss of life has been between 100 and U0U already, so far us known, and scores of persons have not been accounted for. No search has been made for the bodies, as the people have been fleeing to the •jpen country all day trying to save their household goods and escape the intense heat which envelopes tiic ruins. Vhey are camping at a distance from the city without food or shelter, and :alls for help for them have been sent mt by the authorities.

Homeless Thousand*.

The fire is said to have been caused by the coals from a fire in a native's nut in the lower quarter of the city. There is no provision against fire in the :ity and the people did not wait to tight it,but fled panic-stricken before it. l'he road to Amarapura is crowded with fugitives, ivlio will seek help in '.hut city. The suffering will be. in tense, as the rest of the city will be destroyed and about '25,000 families will be homeless.

Two llunilreil Dead.

Chief Secretary Sytnes has appealed :o tho English in Uangooti for aid. lie telegraphs that thousands will die inlcss food and medicines for the injured are sent at once. Several physicians have left for that city and food ivill be sent at once. The residence jf .Sir Alexander Mackenzie, chief :ummissioner for llritish Kurmalt, .vas burned Wednesday morning and wo of his servants were mortally injured. The total number of those severely burned is thought to be about !,500. The latest reports say that the loss of lifo is underestimated. It may reach 200 and perhaps more, although many now thought to be dead may have Been only missed in the confusion or jiay be on their way to near-by villages in search of food and shelter.

ii.

Ki,ito\. Wis.. April 1. A bold ro'bbery was committed between the hours of 1'J and 1 o'clock Wednesday ni^ht in this city. Tin'bunk of Kdiiiiuid Hurt was robbed and wrecked. The t•:•tal ainouut of money stolen will amount, it is thought, to St.500 or more. Pa mages amount to several thousand dollars und many valuable papers and securities are missing. Many docuiuents were blown to small fragments and beyond all rncognition. Most of the money, about Si,000, was in gold, the balance in paper money and some silver. The robbery was an apparently well-planned one. The bank is only a block frotn the depot, and the blowing open of the safe, which was in a strong vault, must have been done when several freight and passenger trains were moving about in the yard, but no noise was heard by itnyone. The first tiling known of the robbery was when G. .1. Clark, cashier of the bank, was tillable to open the front door. When lie had forced all entrance he discovered a full set of tools on the floor, and upon examination found the vault door partly open, and on looking inside a perfect wreck was visible. The burglar proof safe was totally destroyed, the strong steel bars broken and bent out of all shape.

The loss is a heavy one. but none of the depositors are itt danger. Mr. Hart considers himself lucky in not losing more, as the bank usually has upward of sio.unn in its vaults.

Another robber knocked on the door of the mail ear, demanding entrance, which was refused, lie then broke open the door, firing at the postal clerk, who was slightly wounded. Every registered letter, suppose to contain alogether SO,000, was taken. The express ear was not molested. The robbery was done in a few minutes, in which time several of the gang kept up the tiring and Flagman Qiiticy Adams was wounded.
