Kmployes Cot Out with DiMlcuIty. Tho fire was discovered iu the shipping room in the basement at the back of the store. An aiunn was promptly turned in, but by the time the engines arrived the Are had gained considerable headway, having- run up the elevator shaft, and the entire upper floor was a mass of flame ana smoke when the first stream was thrown. There "were sixty employes in the building and most of them had great difficulty in escaping. The building, an old live-story structure, was soon gutted and the stock ruined. At 0 o'clock the front wall of the building tumbled into Woodward avenue. It came in the shape of a collapse, and the mass of debris did not spread beyond the curb. The firemen working in front of the building were warned and retreated as rapidly as possible. Some got out from under, but a dozen or more were unable to do so on account of tho piles of brick, glass aud burnt timbers.

Stampeded by Klcetrlc Wires. A yell of horror went up from the throats of tho thousands who were in the street, and then there was a crash like an earthquake. The air was tilled with dust and sheets of iiame and smoke. Some of the falling wall broke the heavy electric wires and tho trolley wire. A flash of sputtering electric fluid lighted up the scene, and people crowded and surged to get into the stores and down the side streets to escape being shocked. A number of man, women and children were trampled under the feet of the frightened spectators, but none was seriously hurt.

Tuklng Out Victim*.

Rescuers were immediately at work. The first man taken out from under the debris was Lieut, Michael 11. Donogbue, of chemical No. 1. lie was dead. The next body found was that of Richard Dely, pipeman of engine No. 0. It was lying under two iron columns, and tho head and back were frightfully crushed. The next hotly to be taken out was Pipeman John I'agcl, of No. 9. lie was crushed by the crumbling walls. Frederick A. Bussey, a spectator, was taken to Grace hospital, where he died. Mike liray was also taken to Grace hospital. The last named WHS found to be so badly injured about the head that he may die. Mike Boyle. pipeman of No. 2, and Julius Ciuniuiugs, of company No. 2. ure still in the ruins and are certainly dead.

The aggregate loss ou building and stock is estimated at ISO,000 fully insured.

RELIEVE FIRE SUFFERERS.

Commissioner of tho Lai office Make* Recommendation. WASHINGTON, Oct. 6.—S. W. Lamoreaux, commissioner of the general land office, in his annual report shows there has not been as much activity in public laud matters this year aa previously, duo to the hard times in the west and the consequent decrease in immigration. The most important recommendations relate to the forest fires in Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin and what shall be done with the timber on public lauds. On this subject the report sa}**: ••A great part of the land burned over Is now held by settler# who are in process of perfecting tltlo to the premises occupied by thorn. Applications have been made by the sufferer* from these fires for permission to cut the timber from their laud and sell it at once before it becomes worm-eaten, decayed and worthless. This office has not felt warranted by law to grant tho permission a«ked for. inasmuch as standing timber, whether green and growing or burned and dead, is a part of tho realty, and cannot bo disposed of separate from the land in the absence of special provision of law. "Fr:m the facts stated it Is clear, however, that unless somo authority Is given by which the settlers may utilize the limber on their respective claims, much additional loss and suffering must ensue to them and millions of feet of now valuable timber must go to destruction. I therefore urgently recommend that promptly upon the reassembling of congress law be enacted by whhhthe settlers shall be allowed to perfect their claims by commutation thereof to cash purchase at the legal price per acre."

The disposal of land for the year ending June 30 was us follows: "Sold for cash. 013.W26 acres miscellaneous entries. 9,763.399 acres Indian lands. acres total decrease compared with last year, 1,486,043 acres, The total cash receipts of the offloe were 42.707.PM. a decrease of &].7]i.9tV, total agricultural patents Issued. S5.UA6, decrease of 8,420."

HE IS NOT DEAD.

Sensational Ileport or the Czar Death Dlacredltcd. LONDON, Oct. 0.—A report that was obviously intended to affect securities listed on the various continental bourses reached London from Amsterdam to the effect, that the czar of Russia was dead. Tho officials of the Russian embassy here say that they have heard nothing which would tend to confirm the report that the ezar haB suffered a relapse. The Russian officials discredit all such rumors. The stock market here was not influenced by the report, but at Amsterdam aud Berlin securities were dopressed until it was ascertained that the report was without foundation. The origin of the rumor could not be traced any further than that it was first circulated at Amsterdam. Advices from St. Petersburg received here during the last twenty-four hours report the oonditlon of the czar as being critical. At the Russian embassy it is said that he Is not so seriously ill as reports from Amsterdam have indicated, although it is not denied that he Is a very sick man.

VIK.NNA, Oct. 8.—It is learned from a trustworthy diplomatic source that the condition of the czar is hopeless. Temporary improvement Is only possible by a complete abandonment of state business. His majesty is consulous of his condition, and has been lately engaged in writing a sort of political testameu t.

SA" FRANCISCO, Oct. 0.—-Japanese advices bring news of a terrible cyclone on September 11 by which villages in the neighborhood of Ivobi were swept away and people killed. Many vessels are supposed to have been lost. The cyclone swept on to the northeast, afterward wreoking Logaisk. Its path seems to have been unusually wide, for at Marinopal it devastated the country to a point 11 miles inland and had its outer edgo far upon the sea. Marinopal was practically blotted out of existence. Not three houses out of 100 are left standing. It is estimated that over 800 people perished in this town alone.

White Klah Supply Doorenftini WASHINGTON, Oot. 6.—The fish commission reports a noticeable falling off iu the white fish in the great lakes, despite the fact that some 900,000,000 are hatched by the United States and state hatcheries annually. Were It not for tho artificial hatching, tho commissioners believe, white flsh in the lakes would disappear. This falling off is attributed to the increase in the effectiveness of the fish as a food fish. The fry loosed are pounced upon by the pike and pickerel, and it is probable that rearing plaoes will be established on the lakes to minimize this evil.
