Tho crowds of thy jrevious day were not on Land anA only occa9!onal loungers stopped for nin ament, grazed upon the blackened, grimy Willis aud parsed on. A Sextjxf.i. reporter entered t'ts main Lui diiif during the day with one of the colored attendants and was conducted to the kitchen which is being operated there. The food for th'j inuiates and attendants i9 beinj? prepared in the old ?i.ell and conveyed iu kettles, pota and fryinsr-pana to the ann-x across the ftrecst, where it is dished up in a haphazard manner in a room partia'ly tilled wüh wr.ter-poakcl bedding and clothing, euppoeedly the property of the inmates and employes. The arranernont? for feeding the tick are certainly not the best that could be imn.ined, reminding one of the appointments about a cheap boarding housu or a Etnte fair lunch tent. Oi the one hundred and twenty-five patient ar.d their attendants housed at the annex, eijjhty-feven, it is claimed by tho management, have signified their willing-xu-9 to remain and continue to take tratrntnt. ( :ily a limited number oi tlia patients ere able to tak9 their meals in the riicinL'-room, and that others are required to bo eerved with food in their rooits. The machinery in tho brace-room was in operation a!l day yesterday preparing new eurical apparatus and appliances to take the place oi those destroyed and in repalrine braces which were broken during the fire. The inmates appeared more cheerful yesterday than fct any time since the disaster, and apparently half the number were enpaged in getting together what little remained of their e:lects preparatory to a Eeneral exodus, which wiil occur today. 3Iost of them have had word from friends End relatives advi-ini them of what action they eha'l take, and employes and Attendants were bui!y curved in hu-tlimr from one place to another trunks and boxes.

Wilson Ptatinc that the doctor was busily enaped in his room with a f-tetotrrapher preparing a e'.atement for the newspapers, which would be given out later in the evening. Dr. Wilson volunteered the information that the departure of many of the patients and the extecsiye preparations that were going on for a general exodus in the morning were among tnose who were residents of towns in the vicinity of this city, and that they were only leaving for a temporary absence, until better accommodations for their wtlfaie and comfort could he made. A number of the patients who were preparing to leave were accosted, but ia every case tailed to verify the statement of L'r. "Wilson, most of them informing The SexTistL that they did not know whether they wou d return for treatment or not. They only knew they were going Lome and were very glad to get there. One lady eaid she wished to get as far away from the scene of Thursday nicht as it was josnibla for her to get, and then to forget the terrors of that awfui night, which now haunted her dreams and racked her mind mote than Lad ever her helpless and crippled condition. Several of the colored help fuel aggrieved that the acts performed by them in the way of rr scue on the night of the fire were not even mentioned in any of the papers. "Why," said one colored man, "we took out more of the inmates than all the policemen, firemen and volunteer help together." Well," suggested the reporter, "you were only performing your duty, were you not?" "1 don', know about that, boss; we Isn't paid for risking our lives in Dr. Allen's behalf, is we? If we is we had better join the regular army and be done with it." No work was prosecuted in the way of removing any more of the vast accumulation of debris in the burned buildings, aa it is claimed by the management that every inmate, attendent and employe about the building has been accounted for, and that there i3 no necessity for any baste in the matter of removing the retraining mass of burned and blackened timbers. Notwithstanding this assertion, there were many people who visited the ruins yesterday that were skeptical enough to believ9 that other bodies would be found if the search was further prosecuted, and commented in vigorous language on the stoppage ot the work, contending that the exarch shou.d go on until every vemgeof the fallen timbers and walls should be taken out and removed to the street, before the people would be satisfied that no more bodies were buried therein.

The Union station heid an unusually large number of persons about 3 o'clock, taken thither partly on account of the departure of Mr. Lazarus with the remains of his wife and child for the East. Tho horror has no more afiVctinar feature than that exemplified in the case of Mr. Lazarus. An incident of the fire that is causing a emile at the 10's engine house is related by a member of this company. Pete Delaney, a well known member of the Shields club, who was one of the first to the rescue, while groping about on the third floor in search of the terrified occupants, became iost in the labyrinth of rooms and little hallways and becoming almost eullocated with smoke, feil upon his knees in search of a tire hose which he knew to be laid in the building somewhere. He finally succeeded in finding the object of his search, and fodowed the line until be suddenly came upon Toney O'Hari, to who n he" addressed the following his tremulous voice clearly indicating that he was thoroughly frightened: "Who is this?" Toney O'Hari of the 10's," came back the reply. "Thank the Lord, I am saved," added Fete, in the most dramatic tones imaginable. It was P.

Pome years ago when the congregation of the Tabernacle presbyterian church was worshiping in the little one-story frame building on the lot where the present magnificent church stands, the pastor, the Pev. J. A. llondthah r, called his congregation's attention to the condition of the surgical institute. It was during one of his regular Sunday discourses thai the remarks were made. Dr. llondtha'er had been called to tho institution to attend ore of the patients, and in Ins sermon wa comparing tho trials pome of us have in body and mental aliiictions with the happiness of others' experiences. The cheerfulness and bravery oi this patient in his puf't ring was referred to and his sur-r-iundings. The room in which he lay end h". apparent dirt and filth were described by Dr. ivondthaler und comparisons mud 3 with the conditions there and at the city hospital. The revelations of this character in regard to the institution awakened the members d his church and the remarks of Dr. Kondthaler soon reached the ears cf Dr. Allen. An immediate retraction of what he had said was demanded by Dr. Allen from the minister under throats of a suit for libel. The retraction was never made, but matters were amicably arranged between the two gentlemen. 'lhe claim of Dr. Allen in his threatened &uit was that Dr. Dondthtolcr hail no right to criticise a private institution in a pnbiic meeting in such a manner as he had done, and this was to havo been made the cause for action. It is understood that four or five days after the threats of suit were made Dr. Hondthaier was invited to inspect the building. He did to and found it much cleaner than on his previous visits. Dr. Alien at the time remarked to Dr. Dondthaier, it is paid, that he had visited the institution at unfortunate periods and had seen probably tho wrt of the cleaning up. Dr. Kondthaler was sen Sunday night, but refused to go into the matter. He acknowledged ttiat :v iibel s-iit had been threatened, but said that the a:air had long been amicably adju.-tcd, and insisted that he and Dr. Alien were good friends. The uttfranceM of theTubernac'.eV minister at the time created u great amount of go?ejjt and were doubtless iniiiK-ntial in checking negligence in regard to tho sanitär' conditions ul tl;e institute. WILL NO! KtüUILD. Dr. Allen Mij Krm.iv the Inatitat to Another City. Mind ay evening Dr. Allen made the following statement: '"To our fri-.-iids wo wish to state that the rumors of our rebuilding on the present site for institute purposes is unfounded; such is not our intention. The projv-ert-has become too valuable for other business purposes and it has long been the iutention of the proprietors to build a sui'icient number of cottages on a largo piece of ground and quite adi.-tance from the business portion of the city. They have also been importuned by friends in Chicago to remove the business to that city, believing it to be a better place for its location. "Should the institute remain here building will begin very soon, and ample provision will bo made for not U: than five hundred patients at a time, with ample grounds and greater facilities than heretofore. Tho hundreds of letters and telegrams from old patrons and friends in the various oities and parts ot the United States and Canada, and irom those who know us better and have had more perJ eonal dealings with u than manv Indian apolis people are comforting indeed, ns they all urge the continuance of the efi'orts which restored them, and feeling conscious that upon a cool and fair consideration oi all facts in tho case unkind criticisms will discontinue it is the determination of the proprietors to prosecute the long cherished work which they know has brought happiness to many homes." Much Hatter. The Weddel! house property, in which the patients of the surgical institute are now housed, according to Building Inspector Fitchey, is by no means a safe lo cation. Speaking of the building on Saturday he said : "There are but two means of egress to that building, the front stairway going down on Idinois-st and the littie crooked stairwayin the rear running up from the Georgia-st. front. This latter stairway is but four feet wide and halfway up makes a right angle turn. The building is not high, bun;? but three stories, but should a fire occur it would bo most difficult for the occupants to get out. I am not saying this to cause any alarm or scare, but all I have told you are facts." A MICHIGAN VIEW OK IT. Was There Anything VVorae n the Days of HjirbnriimT IMroit Free Press. The frightful calamity at Indianapolis again calls attention to the subject of criminal carelessness in the construction of build ings intended for the caro or custody of the eick or infirm. Here was a buildin? in which were hundreds of helpless persons, the sick and the crippled, who were there for treatment. It was a buildin from which the accounts tend to show it would have been difGcult for persons ia the full vigor of health to make their escape in case of fire ; vet the maimed and helpless were lodged there without apparently any thought of the awful possibili

ties should a conflagration breakout. The consequences were just what ought to have been foreseen. A lire did break out. The building was not built with any reference to fire protection or easy exit. And in the confusion and panic a number of persons no one knows even yet how many lost their lives in the most horrible way that death can come. li there was anything worse than this in the days of what we are accustomed to call barbarism we do not know what it was. The barbarians were reckless of human life and deliberately permitted the helpless to die for want of care. But they did not boast oi their humanity and civilization and then disprove the boast by penning up their cripples in a liretrap from which it was morally and physically impossible they should escape if fire came. According to our standards they sinned previously, but they did not ein against light as the constructors and managers of such institutions as that destroyed in Indianapolis did. We have not the most abundant confidence in the power of law to remedy evils, but surely it is within the scope of legislation to reach this evil. We have penalties for the use of buildings for factories without suitable fire-escapes when the occupants are people m health. Is it not possible to provide that no building shall be used for the sick, infirm or crippled unless it is Cre-proof, cr unless there is the most ample provision for the removal of the inmates in case of fire? Legislation can surely go that far. It ought to go farther and make it a criminal ollenso to erect a building for such a purpose as the Indianapolis structure was put to or to use for euch a purpose any building which does not "fill the bill" suggested. A few years spent in tlie penitentiary by some of the men responsible for the Indianapolis horror or other similar horrors of which, to our national disgrace be it said, thero havo been a great many would impress verv strongly architects and builders and the. managers of institutions for the care of the helpless. A PAINFUL REFLECTION.

Vrhere the Awful Laml of Responsibility Ket. N. Y. Tribune.l It is scarcely possible to conceive of a catastrophe more dreadful in its circumstances and incidents than the burning of the Indiana surgical institute. A sudden summons to a strugjlo for lifo against i fiame and smoke is appalling when the general conditions are not specially unfavorable to escape. lut a fire in a hospital filled with patients who can do little or nothing to help .themselves, and who are penned in a llimsy and ill-planned structure, almost touches the last limits of the horrible. These were the conditions surrounding the tragedy at Indianapolis. Scarcely more than a quarter oi an hour was available for tho work of rescu'. Thjre is no reason to doubt that everything possible to be done in that time was done. There is not often a conspicuous lack of courage and skill and eneregy in such emergencies, and the dispatches say that these qualities were nobly displayed in this instance. Scores of persons who might have remained in safety chose to risk their lives for others. As usual the opportunity for heroism was not neglected. One of the most painful reflections suggested bv such miserable events is the contrast between the unselfish devotion which they inspire acd the criminal indiderente to obligation which makes them possible. An awful load of responsibility reets upon tho-e who maintained the instant in the state in which the tire found it. The same responsibility retted upon them before, but they carried it easily. They probably feel the burden now. TliTe is no deficiency of fortitude and generosity in the American peopie. What they lack is that keen moral j-ense, that conviction of personal accountability, which would forecast and avert the perils oi in'lammablo materials e.nd bad construction. A mnll4gration was not required to prove that this hospital, devoted to the care and cure of crippled and helpless beings, was a firetrap. Mo doubt many were surprised at the rapidity of its destruction. There is always unreasonable astonishment under etch circumstances. It is a part of the willful ignorance and indifference which produce a va.it sum of misery. Kvery catastrophe like this induces a sense ot a'.vn and duty. Hut the general eil'ect is momentary. Owners and agents relapse into complacent negiect of danger; sales are made and rents collected as cheerfully as bc:"ore and the old risks are defied without any con ft esiun of culpability. A SCORCHliK FRGM TiirNEsSSE. NotTkbt Su31aojtrrr liamtd, But That So Many ;cpol. M; n.;jhls Ai'poal-Avnlnnct.e.l The destruction of the National 6urgical inst.tute at Indianapolis by lire was to have been expected. It was a vast, poorly built structure, designed with the only thought of ad'ording cramped lodgingrooms for a multitude of crippled patients. Toe utmost economy hud been exercised in the arrangements. The patients were fairlv pigeon holed in a tinder box. Tho institute had been long in existence end its proprietors had grown wealthy. Every citizen ot Indianapolis anticipated a fearful conflagration some day with immense lot-s of life. But as the ycara passed, and no fire occurred, and as the fire inspectors were lenient, the people grew indhierent, although now and then some one would question the safety of the building. It was a glaring example of reckless cupidity on thepaitof the owners, aud of culpable neglect of duty on the part of public officials. The wonder is, not that so many were burned to death in Thursday night's fire, but that s many escaped. The law should now demand the full penalty. The owners should be prosecuted in both civil and criminal courts. They had made money enough to have provided safe quarters. They reiused to do this, but, challenging Providence, and oblivious to the dictates of humanity, they kept all the profits of their business in their pockets, and deliberately hazarded the lives of helpless men, women and children, who had came to them for treatment of dreadful physical afflictions. An example should be made, of them. The dispatches describe Jthe place as a death-trap, with narrow halls aud irregular stairways. It was without proper fire protection. It was a monument of human greed. Patients came from every quarter of the country, sent by fond friends who Lad learned cf the institute's cure. A visit to the place never failed to excite apprehension of terrible calamity in case a flame should ever seize the combustible pile. In some communities the horrors of the event would excite the angered populace to lynch the owners who had placed so many human beings in jeopardy. Combination of Gre-rt and Folly. I Philadelphia Timpa. That kind of wisdom which locks tho etabla door after the horse is stolen and builds fireproof buildings for hospitals, asylums, hotels, theaters and school houses after a series of conflagrations, accompanied by appalling loss ot life, may be better than no wisdom at all. But the combination of greed and folly that goes on crowding the helpless and sick of body or mind into tinder-box buildings after all j the many fatal fires of the past should be 1 tolerated by the authorities no longer, j The burning of the National surgical iustii tute at Indianapolis,witli the loss of a score j or more of lives, is a case in point, Pns- ! peroua as this institution had become its ' hundreds of helpless patients, comprising j every degree of defect, deformity and de- ' crepitude were housed in a building that

was known to be a tinder box, as is shown by the high rate of insurance charged upon it. High as the rate was the building and furniture were fully insured, the lives of its poorvictims alone being uninsured and unprotected. It seems ungracious to criticise those who give their lives to the service of eutlering humanity, but it is hardly worth while to 6traighten a crooked limb if the whole body must be rpasted to a cinder in tho process. The first requirement ot a building devoted to the treatment of the helpless should bo that it be fireproof, A SEVERE ASSERTION.

It Was n Crime to Tack Staff Uootnswlth Patients. Lafayette Courier. The persons who lost their lives in the surgical institute fire at Indianapolis last night were murdered. That is a severe assertion, but it is nevertheless the truth stated in plain English. The building has long been regarded as a veritable deathtrap, and it was a crime to pack its stutly rooms fuil of patients more or less helpless to do anything toward helping themselves in a disaster such as that which was so cruelly visited upon them last night. The institution was enormously profitable, and its proprietors have grown immensely wealthy from the revenue derived from the treatment of atllicted persons from ail points in the United States. But notwithstanding this almost unexampled financial success, the owners of the concern continued to use the ratty old hulk as a hosfutal for the unfortunate crippled and deortned long after it had been pronounced unsafe by competent authority. It was not a fit place to stow away able-bodied persons, much less those who were almost or quite helplessly al'licted, and in the interest of humanity and a3 a menace to other landlords and property owners who deliberately and knowingly maintain death-traps, an example ought to be made of the men wno are primarily responsible for this most shocking aud piteous disaster that will create a feeling in the public niind that will enforce more coneideration for human life. A NEW YORK VIEW. The Reanlt of a HecklcM and Wicked Deftature of All tlie Chances. tK. Y. Times The ca'amity that occurred in Indianapos night before last appears tobe the result of a reck ess and wicked defiance of all the chances. We do not know who are the responsible governors or directors of the Indianapolis inetiluu ot surgery. It appears to have had a wide reputation, for many of the patients were from distant places. Whoever they are they must have a dreadful load on their h arts and consciences. But they invited iL They had under their ctip.rgo nearly three hundred' persons, patients and attendants, most of the patients being more or le8 helpless cripples. These were housed in an old building erected for business purposes in the heart of tlie commercial quarter. Neither building nor location was lit for the purpose of such an institution. It must have been perfect y obvious beforehand that it was peculiarly liable to take fire or to have fire communicated to it, and that if it did get on fire it would burn rapidly and the iumates would either perish in it or sufler dreadful agonies in their hasty rescue. One would tbink that no one connected with the institution could have slept nights for fear and trembling on account of the peril to which so many diseased and incapacitated human beings were subject, llow long this condition of things has existed we do not know. But all will be known in due time and probably all soon iorgoiten. LOOKED LIKE A FIRE-TRAP. Tho Authorities Will Wake I'p SmeFort Wayne Gaz Ue.l That was a horrible a'Fair at Indianapolis last.Thursiiay night tlie burning of the surgical institute building in which so many unfortunate and heiplesschildren lost their lives or were severely injured. Persons who are acquainted with the surrundiogs of the building could not have been particularly surprised on reading of the disaster. The place looked like a lire trap, and it seemed but a matter of time tin til the horror must result. But the sullering and distress entailed by the fire are to bo deplored. Such accidents as these are "universally ascribed to the unavoidable. But they could bo avoided, and some ona is to blame that extra care and precaution are not used. It is to be hoped that some time the proper authorities will awaken to the fact that it is their duty to protect the lives of the innocent and help 'ess, and that such laws will be enacted, and enforced, as to thu construction of public buildings as will prevent such disasters as this recent one in the capital city of the state. The Firmn lil ob:y. South Bend Toiit.1 The awful fire which occurred at Indianapolis at an early hour yesterday morning calls forth tbe sympathetic interest and aid of all. The great surgical institute of that citv, a home for son e three hundred cripples, was an awful place for a fire at midnight and it is not surprising that there are many deaths. It is known that fully twenty persons met death in the flames and many were dreadfully injured. The scenes attending the awful catastrophe were heartrending. The firemen did nobly, and with a heroism reflecting all honor, did bravely their duty in the work of rescuing the unfortunate inmates. SliouH U n Warning. Toledo Be. That was a shocking catastrophe which visited Indianapolis last nicht in the burning of the surgical institute. Helpless cripples roasted to death, patients strapped to their couches, unable to extricate themselves, perishing in the fiames, are dreadful things to contemplate. It would eeem that buildings which house helpless inmates, public institutions, phould be rendered as nearly as possible fire-proof. We read that the fire originated iD an annex, separated from the main building by a narrow space. What is the duty of the fire inspector of a city? Will the Indianapolis horror be a warning to other institutions and other cities? Travesty of Humanltarlanltm. Philadelphia KecorJ. In a conflagration involving charitable institutions there ought to be some way oi escape for cripples and invalids aside from the usual appliances which strong men only may use successfully. No such channels appear to have beeu open to the inmates of the surgical institute at Indianapolis, which was burned yesterday. They took their chances with the rent, and a pcore cr more lost their lives in consequence. There is nothing consoling in such a result. It is a mere travesty of humanitarian ism. Ttkrn for a Crank.

Jan. 2- Wheat started itronsr and hu'tier this morning. There was considerable speculative buying on the Chilian situation unJ shorts were covering for the same reason.

Shipments are large with the fruit and vegetable dealers, the outside trade being exceptionally heavy. Cabbage is scarce and wanted, fcnioDS are in better demand and apples are more active. Grocers report a better trade, the week starting out with a cheerful outlook. Coff ees, sugars and canned goods remain fairly active but steady and unchanged. Grocers' lists are uuchnned, likewise those of the dry goods men. With the latter a cood trade prevailed today and r.o tills were empty. Merchants have opened a new line' of 1'eJford cords in wool aa well as cotton fabrics, also a new line of chevon cloths. Today a new importation of towels, nspkiDs, table damatk and crashes will please the - eye of the purchaser. Staple cottons are slightly stronger than they have been. It seems that the extreme low prices have caused raany jobbers to anticipate their wants consequently large orders have been placed lor future delivery. Hardware remains in good demand, everything considered, but prices are unchanged. With leather and hides the outlook for a good spring trade is quite flattering. Trade is very good at vrecenl lor this season of the year. No change ia noted in the turning situation. Fanners are still inclined to complain of their lot. Prices are firm with an upward tendenncy. Queeusware is only fairly active, but doing as well as dealers enn reasonably expect in the dull season. Drugs are unchanged in price, with tha exception ot alcohol, on which there is a four-cent decline on the lower grade. Trade is good. Poultry and produce are coming in freely, the demand beiug cood. Poultry ia easy in the Fast, but the local market is fair with a tendency to weaker. Butter is strong, to use a commercial phrase only, and in cood

demand. Egg kre firm and receipts ars large.
