I shall be pretty severe upon the Chicago civil service league, who made the charges, and then had nothing to sustain them, but not more severe than I think the facts warrant.

PITISBURG ABLAZE.

The Most Disastrous Conflagration Since the Riotsot 1877. The Entire Fire Department Combat the Flames Four Long Hours —Masonic Hall and Several Magnificent Buildings Destroyed—Loss 8500,000. Pittsburg was visited Friday night with the most disastrous conflagration known in that city since the riot fires of 1877. The alarm was turned in at !) o’clock and for four continuous hours the entire fire department contended against the flame before over comming it. The flames started in the rear of the*Masonic building. On three sides were solid brick buildings forming a quadrangle, encompassing a quarter of an acre of tinder boxes. Alarm after alarm followed each other, and within forty-five minutes the fire machinery of five districts was on the ground. But hose, and engines, and trucks, and axes, were powerlets to deal with the blazing furnace the glowed in seething defiance at two score noasdes, in the hands of a hundred firemen. On the east side was the loftiest building in he city , the Hamilton, which towered nine stories above the flames that licked its base. Seven stories from the ground it presented a solid wall of brick, which offer-

ed no opening for the firemen to work upon that side. The front, on Fifth avenue, also prevented an advantageous placing of the firemen, and with the roaring fire increasing in volume and extent at eve ry second, there were but two sides at which the firemen could work. The rear was a narrow alley, and with all the odds against them the firemen seemed to have been called to a hopeless contest with the flames.Butthey rallied on the second-story roofs at the west side, while a half a dozen streams guarded the front on fifth avenue. The pipemen could not get within one hundred feet of the firey crater. Though at work at a safe elevation from the hottest of the fire, it singed their hair and scorched their eyeballs; but the thundering engine%seemed to be but idle play for all the headway made against the fire. There was not much wind, and the sparks and burning fire-brands shot out from the pit of flames and soared lazily over the roofs of the business blocks on both sides of Fifth avenue. On every roof for two squares were men with buckets and extinguishers, putting out j the sparks and brands that dropped in a heavy shower over the buildings for a solid square. The lurid tongues of flame seemed to attack half the city. Fifth avenue, a narrow thoroughfare, was one solid, impassable jam. Through this crowd the firemen had to lay their lipes with the aid of squads of policemen, who alone could force respect by the free use of maceß. Section after section of hose was burst by the high pressure under which the engines were working, a difficulty that was increased by the tramping of thousands of, feet upon the lines. At 11 p. m. the surging flames rolled in ascending billows to the higfit of the roofs upon which the pipemen were stationed, and it then seemed that the destruction of the entire block , and $(>,000,000 worth of property was inevitable. It was at this hour that the Hamilton building; five stories higher than the structures which flanked it, caught from the crackling area of whitehot coals that glowed alongside. The longest ladders were far too short to reach the elevation at which the second conflagration began. The Hamilton structure extends entirely through the block to Virgin alley. A long ladder | was run up to the rear and a detail of firemen slowly dragged and toiled upward with a line of hose. —When the fifth story windows bad been almost

reached, the water was turned on at a frightful pressure. The shock almost hurled the men at the nozzle from the ladder. The wriggling, tortuous hose writhed in their grasp. To release it wouid have been to have stripped those lower down from the lofty ladder. With cool resolution,., hpwever, the men pointed the stream directly aloft, and clung to the swaying, elastic ladder that at every moment threatened to careen to the pavement below. In this perilous, agonizing position they clung for fully four minutes before the eyes of the horror-stricken crowd. The word reached jthe erfd of the line, and the wicked stream was cut off. By this tinffe the seventh, eighth and ninth floors of the Hamilton building were ablaze, and no stream of water could more than touch the fringe of the lame along the lower side. The Dispatch building was then only separated from the fire by an intervening structure, the Schmidt & Friday building. The printers in the fifth story, almost suffocated by the roasting sirocco that drove through the windows, abandoned their “cases” and stampeded down the stairways. The flames were got under control at 2:30 a. m., Saturday. The Hamilton building, Masonic Hall and a number of tenement houses were totally destroyed. The loss is estimated at $500,000.

A SYNDICATE SUNDERED.

Henry S- lyes & Co, Fail 820,000,000. W l . Inlated Investments Equal to the Ferd Ward Robbery—Two Indiana Railroads Involved—W bat Great Cheek Will Ac- ’ complisli. The firm of Henry S. Ives & Co., of New York, suspended last week, causing intense excitement in interested circles. The liabilities exceed $20,000,000. Henry S. Ives is a young man, twentynine years old, and looks more like a divinity student than a railroad financier. He appeared in Wall street about seven years ago, and was a clerk for G eorge Opdyke k Co., bankers. Then he was connected with the house of Denslow, Easton & Herts, and later with the firm of Meeker, Ives & Co. The h ouse of Henry S. Ives & Co. is only about two years old, and it was not Ives who furnished the capital. He became known to the country hut a few we eks since in the C. H. & D. railway purchase-and later by the purchase of the Vandalia railroad from W. R. McKeen, figuratively knocking the i breath out of the great Pennsylvania company. The announcement of this bold stroke created great excitement in business circles at the time. The— transactions 'were carried out in the name of the so-called IvesStaynor syndicate. The firm igured the same time with Robert -Garrett, of the Baltimore & Ohio road, and came near getting possession of it also, and, now as the bubble has burst, the peculiar methods employed entitle Ives to be dubbed “Napoleon II.” of Wall street, Ferdinand Ward being “Napoleon I,” After having obtained possession of the C. H. & D. Ives used the preferred stock of the road to secure his other loans. The w T ay he would get hold of this preferred stock was in this wise: He would give a check to the road for the amount of his purchase. This check would be certified by Henry Ives A Co., as bankers for the road. The certified check would then be accepted by Ives & Staynor as the road’s officers. They would endorse it with the road’s name, and it would then be deposited with Henry S. Ives & Co., bankers. Not a dollar passed in the transaction, but Ives got the stock all the same, and paid for it, too —on paper. It is also claimed he has managed to glut the Vandalia in a similar manner. It is probable he will be proceeded against for criminality, and may share the fate of Ferd Ward. Firms, individuals and railroad companies are included in the general slaughter. Statements are that the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton’s claim is about $5,000,000; the Vandalia claim about $2,500,000; Wm. Fellowes. Morgan A Co., $2,000,000; L. B. Harrison, of the First National Bank, $1,000,000, Alfred, Sully; $400,000; The Farmers’ Loan and Trust Company, $300,0o0; Irving A. Evans, of Boston. $287,000, besides many other amounts to various railroads and a number of loans which were made out in the name of brokers. The gmotmtrtrf these cannotr be ascertained-. __ -: :

A Mother's Cruelly. A case of maternal cruelty comes from Springfield, Ohio: Severs months ago Mrs. Daniel Harigan, was accused of Jiaving starved her baby. The agent for the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children waited on her and found that she was feeding thje child on sour milk, and the little thing, but three months old, was a mere skeleton and was covered with filth. The ut natural mother promised to do better, but never did, and a week ago, for the purpose of preserving the child’s life, it was taken to the orphan’s home. Wednesday it died. Physicians made a post-mortem examination and stated to the coroner that death was caused by starvation. The coroner held an inquest, examining a long list of witnesses, and thewoman will Hkely have to suffer for her sins. Mr. Harigan earns good wages, but afraid of his wife. There was no necessity for ill-treating the child.

At another place the wind picked up a buggy and carried it over the fence into a cornfield. A disease resembling distemper is becoming prevalent among the horses of Morgan county. It attacks young horses more frequently than old ones, but very few of the latter having been afflicted .yet. The animal’s throat swells to a very large size, so as to make it difficult, if not impossible, to swallow anything. The swollen part rarely breaks, but emits matter freely when lanced. Several horses have died of the disease in the county, and it is spreading continually. It is slow in its effects, but quite fatal.

An unprovoked and cowardly murder was committed at Brazil Friday morning. Wm. F. Lanagan, proprietor of a saloon in the east end of the city, and Joseph Smith, a colored miner, got into a quarrel over a game of cards, when the former ordered the latter off the premises. He left, but was pursued by the proprietor, who shot him in the abdomen, inflicting a wound that will necessarily prove fatal. The murderer escaped, though officers promptly, appeared for, his arrest. Three confidence* men giving their names as Parker, Kerins and Forbs, were arrested at Terre Haute last Friday. They had not done any thing there as yet but were well-known to the police as three of the slickest confidence men in the country, and it was thought best to hold them. The wisdom of this course has been made apparent by intelligence from Jackson county that they were wanted for swindling a farmer named Zach Deputy, of that county, out of $3,000 and a note for S6OO last June. Mr. Deputy identified the men as the right parties, and they will be sent back. Lightning is re sponsible for the burning of the barn of Mrs. David Henry, in

Saturday night Mrs. Horrall returned secretly, having been abandoned by her paramour. She got a horse and buggy, armed herself, and set out to the home of her children’s grandmother.

The grandmother refused, when the mother pulled out her revolver and said she would murder anybody who interfered with her. The woman grabbed the babies and left for parts unknown. When the husband returned home next day be found his children had been kidnapped, and he is now scouring the country for them. For several months the authorities at Indianapolis have been pursuing the fellers Of liquor on Sunday with considerable vigor, and the minor Courts have been at times fairly flooded with prosecutions. Usually the saloon keeper was

a witness for himself, and it was seldom he could be found to admit the offense, and so the convictions have not been so frequent as the State desired. Monday there was a new twist of the wheel, In the return of an indictment against James Burns, charging him with perjury, he having sworn that on a given Sunday he neither sold beer to the prosecuting witness, nor did he have any of the beverage in bis saloon. The State developed that he was stocked up as usual, at least that is the claim, and the indictment followed. Burns gave bond. The situation is pretty grave for him, as the State is the witness in the case, so far as his swearing is eoncemdd.> . , _ After Two Years. In 1885 the owners of the Fifth-ave-nue hotel, New York, had difficulty with the painters at work upon the house and a boycott was ordered.

STORIES OF THE SEA.

Sensational and Very Fishy Report i from Canada. Peculiar Accident to a Ship at Brooklyn—. Arrival at Halifax of the British War Ship Wrangle—Seixnre of Canadian Steamer* by the American*. The ¥ew York Herald published a sensational story Monday from Ottawa, Ont., to the effect that an American fishing schooner was fired into and sunk by a British cruiser off Buctouche, on the Gulf of St. Lawrence shore of the province of New Brunswick. It is estimated, the dispatch alleged, that fifteen sailors lost their lives. .-The authority for the story is not given bv name, bnt is said to be a man of undoubted veracity living in Buctouche. This man says that he and his wife were awakened by the firing, and that many other people saw the foremast of the little schooner go by the board, with all sails, etc. This careened the ship so far that she filled and sank immediately. The cruiser then disappeared, going out to sea. The man was able to learn that an American vessel had been chased by & cruiser the day before, but he could not learn the name of either. He found two fishermen who had been in a rowboat the night before, and who were witnesses of the firing and saw the vessel sink. The reason for suppressing the news is obvious, but if true, the story is bound to come out. The affair is wholly discredited. Two Canadian steamers, the Hastings and the Kathleen, says a Buffalo dispatch of Monday, were seized by the custom house officers at Charlotte Bn*day. The seizure was made on the ground that neither of the boats had been inspected by the Unites States Inspectors. The owners of the boats gave bonds and were allowed to return to Toronto.

The British warship Wrangler unexpectedly arrived off Halifax Sunday, and gives additional color to the report that men of-war are to assist the Dominion fishing cruisers in the Gulf of St. Lawrence. The Wrangler is from the west coast of Africa, and there was no previous announcement of her coming. When the naval officers were questioned about the proposed movement of war ships, they said nothing whatever concerning the expected 5 -arrival- of the Wrangler, but whether that fact had any significance can not at present be determined. The only statement that can be elicted from the best informed officials is that the fleet will sail on the 23d for its regular summer cruise to Charlottetown and Quebec. While the Spanish bark Maria Louisa, of La Palma, was on the dry dock of the Brooklyn Water Front Warehouse and Dry Dock company, at twenty-sixth j street, Brookly, Saturday night, the dry [ dock sank and the vessel careened over lon her port side, killing one man and injuring nine others and raining the cargo. She had on board seventy-six passengers. The passengers had with them, besides their personal effects, large quantities of cigars and tobacco, while the cargo of the vessel consisted of rum, molasses and sugar. The accident was caused by a defect in the dry dock. In 1800 the Mississipi territory was organized, and Indiana territory formed, with St. Vincennes as its capital.
