Sunday morning, about a quarter of five o'clock, Stewart's cooper shop, bet ter known as the old pork house, south the Vandalia railroad on Water street, was discovered to be on fire, and an alarm was turned in. The fireboys responded promptly. By the time they reached the scene the fire had spread and" a general alarm was turned in, calling out the entire department.

building was very combusti

ble, and burned rapidly. The fire boys fought the devouring elements hard, but were unable to check them. The men of No. 1 went to the south end of the building near the walls of the old smoke house (bumed down some time ago). The smoke was blinding,and the flames hot. A large crowd had collected, and while the No. l's were there the crowd cried out, "The walls are falling." The firemen, thinking it was the brick wall, dropped their hose and run, but instead of running away from danger ran right into its very jaws. Instead of the walls of the old smoke house it was the flooring from the burning structure that was tumbling. The frame fell, burying under the debris Fireman

Marti if Laffey, and partially burying. Firemen James Coughlin and George Anderson. Abeam struck Laffey-on the head, crusliingthe skull and breaking the jaw-bone. Coughlin's injuries are about the back, and last evening he was sufferingconsideraUy. Anderson escaped almost without injuries, The rubbish was moved off of Laffey. and the bruised body removed. He lived about half an hour. The remains were conveyed to Mrs. Dr. Laughead's, on the corner of Second and Chestnut streets*

The coroner held an inquest, Sunday afternoon, and rendered a verdict of accidental death'. The story of the affair, as told by Chief Kennedy, at the inquest, is as follows rp|

I am chief of the Terre Hante fire department. I was called out this (Sunday) morning about 4:30 o'clock to afire at the smoke house of the old Beiman pork house, on north Water street. I knew the deceased, Martin Laffey. He was about twenty-six years old. He was a member of reel com pany No. 1, of this city. The first saw of him after reaching the fire was in front of the building on Water street. I was afraid the south brick wall would fall, and I took the men away from there. His crew went around the south end of the building. He was about six or eight feet from the building and moving, saw the' frame commence to fall, was standing close to him and gave the alarm, ranjaouciiweut about, twenty or thirty feet. When I turned around the frame had fallen and he was under it. Goodpaster and myself went back, raised the sill, and I took the deceased out. He was unconscious. We carried him up the bank about fifty feet, He lived about thirty minutes and died without saying anything. We put the body in the patrol wagon and took it to Mrs. Dr. Laughead's, on the northeast corner of Second and Chestnut streets.

Firemen George Grinup, George and John Crawford testified.in substance as above.

The dead fireman's father, William J^effay, of Jeffersonville, lnd., airived Sunday night, accompanied by Thomas Shanghnessey and Hugh Garrison, of Louisville, brothers-in-law, of the deceased.

The remains were sent to Jeffersonville yesterday afternoon. About two o'clock the procession formed at the headquarters of the fire department, and marched down Ninth street to Ohio, down Ohio to Second and up Second to the residence of Mrs. Laugh head, and from thence to the depot, The order of the procession was: ,.j.v Ringgold Band. f'-

The loss on the building is about $1,500. On tools, about $500.

The Terra Hautes of Time—The Sad Story.

The Terre Hautes were again defeated yesterday at Covington, by the Kentons. Yesterday's defeat was worse than that of the previous day, the score standing 13 to 3. It was reported last night that Andrus, Horn and Halbriter did not play. A rumor was also afloat to the effect that Andrus and Buckenberger had had some trouble and that the former had refused to play any more until the matter was straightened out The Express' correspondent was probatfly] too much disgusted to send a full report, as none had been received up to the hour of going to press.

Sunday's Game Here.

The Reds and Emeralds played a game Sunday afternoon at the park, the result of which was a'victory for the former club by a score of 14 to 6. The crowd in attendance was not large. Some excellent music was furnished by the Ringgold band, under whose auspices the game was gotten up. Derolf pitched for the Reds and Anderson went behind the bat for the first four innings, when he *vas relieved by Cook. The battery for the Emeralds was Be^sley and'Felver. The following is the score by innings:.

The Sunday Game.

The Terre Hautes were defeated for the fifth time since their organisation in a game with the Kentons, at Cov-

i-.- .yr.

lngtoa, Sunday. The defeat ii. owing to several causes, the tnoet prominent one being the crippled condition of the club. The grounds were in miserable condition and the boys were unable to field with any great ease. Andrns had a sore knee and was unable to plav. Krehmeyer caught, but could not play his usual game as bis arm was quite sore. Nelson occupied the box. Packard played short stop without an error, and Barnes went to third base.
