and others, and none save those who are actually employed, are allowed to re- main. Officers are arresting men _ every hour, somo of them on the slightest provocation. In all cases where the of- fense is trival, the victims are pressed into work with the relief gangs. HURRYING THE INTERMENTS. Notices were posted in all the morgues today stating that, after today, bodies would be held only twenty-four hours for identification. If, at the expiration of that time, they are not recognized, they are photographed, the photograph bearing the same number as the morgue number oi the corpse. Recognition is a difficult matter, as the bodies are most terribly bruised and discolored when re- covered. BLASTING THE DEATH GORGE. The works of blasting the gorge at the Pennsylvania bridge was prosecuted to- day with much better succes than on any previous day. Several men armed with poles were busy pushing the loosened by the blast out into the stream, so that they would float away. THE OLDEST INHABITANT. Thpmas Jacobs, of Morrellville, is one of the oldest inhabitants of the Cone- maugh valley. He said to-day that the water of the river was much higher in 1837 than it was last Friday, even after the dam broke. "The whole trouble about this deplorable affair," he continued, "seems to be from the nar- rowing of the channel of the river, and the dtflection of its course. "I remem- ber well," said ho, "when the channel ran down where the mill below the bridge now stands. The Conemaugh has always been a shallow stream. Af- ter heavy rainfalls itrises rapidly, as all mountain streams do. Its watershed is large and the hillsides are so con- structed that tbe water runs down rapidly, causing quick rises and turbu- lent currents. THE WHOLE DAM TROUBLE. "Primarily, I hold that the Cambria Iron Company is responsible for the nar- rowing channel. Secondly, the South Fork Club is responsible for not having made the dam secure beyond all possi- bilityof a break, especially when tbey caused the dam to be enlarged by rais- ing the breast. And third, the Pennsyl- vania railway is responsible for having constructed the viaduct with such low arches and with ribs calculated to catch pieces of driftwood if they happen to strike diagonally on the piers. The dam made by the gorge at the bridge is what engulfed the town." GENEROUS PITTSBURG. Pittsburg, June 6.?Contributions are coming in rapidly for the relief of the Johnstown sufferers. It is estimated at the Chamber of Commerce that $300,000 has been subscribed. Chairman Mc- Creery, of the relief committee, tonight issued a circular in which he states that it will require 10,000 men to clear the wreck along the ten miles of destruction, and place the city in a safe sanitary condition. This will cost double the amount now in the hands of the committee and leaves nothing for the sufferers and destitute, whose need is very great, all of which must be carefully attended to. The destitute are brought to this city, clothed and fed and housed, or sent free to their friends all over the land. We ask that the gener- ous subscriptions, which are coming from all over the country, be continued until sufficient funds are provided to complete the above work. SYMPATHY FROM BERLIN. Berlin, June 6.?The North German Gazette, speaking of the Johußtown flood, says: "The Americ-ins are always charitable. The condition of the suff.r- ers by the Johnstown floods demands German assistance." organized aid. San Francisco, June 0 ?Subscriptions to the Johnstown flood fund in this city up to this afternoon exceed $30,000. tulare's mite. Tulare, June 6 ?An informal meet- ing was held here to-night for the pur- pose of sending aid to the flood sufferers in Pennsylvania. One hundred and fifty dollars was subscribed and a systematic convassing of the town will be made to- morrow. ST. BAB. CHIPS IN. Santa Barbara, June C? The Cashier of the First National Bank to-day sent to the Relief Committee at Johnstown $500, to be used for the re'ief of the flood suf- ferers. One hundred dollars more has already been subscribed.

Ciiicaoo, June 6 ?One of Laster &. Co.'a bookke.-p-irs waa put on the stand at the Cronin inquest, to-day, and pro- ceeded to read an abstract of 116 trans- actions in stocks which Sullivan had with the firm during a certain time. The list was quite long and was not all read. Witness said: "Mr. Snlliran never drew a check in favor of any syndicate of bucket-shop men for any sum until he had money in hand from them to meet it. Coincident with the time when he was thus acting as agent for the bucket- shop men, he received from Patrick Egan a large sum of money, of which he was custodian. The fund was transferred from Paris to New York and thence to Chicago, where it was de- posited in the Traders' Bank. Sullivan knowing that no loss would occur to him personally from Leßter & Company's transactions, it mattered little what bank he drew the money from. He al- ways had syndicate money in hand before drawlrg a check to the order of their broker." Mr. Trude said further that Mr. Sullivan had Mr. Egan's receipt in full for the whole sum intrusted to his keeping, end can trace all of the channels through which the money was finally disbursed. Capt. Thomas F, O'Connor, a member of Clan-na-Giel said that, in 1885, a man came to see him. This man, he be- lieved, lived in Philadelphia, but he cculd not remember his name. The man told him that some men were going across the water, and that the chances were that he (wit- ness), would be called on to go. O'Connor mentioned this to his friend, Dr. Cronin, who advised him not to go, saying that there were enough good, honest Irishmen behind English bars who have been given away as soon as they arrived, and that he did not believe in the dynamite policy. The stranger saw witness in Dr. Cronin's company and did not see him again. The only other notable witness of the witness of the day was John F Biggs, a lawyer, Senior Guardian (presiding officer) of Camp No. 20, Clan-na-gael. Biggs was cross-examined in a way that for freedom and scope could scarcely be surpassed. He tes- tified that Sullivan, the ice-man, is a member of Camp 20. Other than this, the relevancy of the bulk of the wit- ness's testimony was not apparent at this stage of the proceedings. Witness declared himself a fiiead of Alexander Sullivan. The Daily News to morrow will say: "It does not appear that the Irish cause lost any money by Alexander Sullivan's banking operations." Mr. Sullivan, when asked what bank his account was transferred tn from the Traders', promptly rep'ied, the Chicago National. Lawyer A. S. Trude, speakincr for Sul- livan, in an interview said: "Mr. Sulli- van was simply the agent of persons or a combination desiring to operate on the Board cf Trade and his re- ceipts all show the word "Agent " Sullivan did not know anything about speculations of this character, and probably could not tell a "put" from a "call." His name was simply used on Lester & Co.'s books by a syndicate of bucket shop men in order that they might do business on the Board of Trade when their orders made it necessary for them to do so. The syndicate was mad up of such firms as Murphy & Co. Mr. Sullivan met some of these parties in his law practica, and was given large sums of money with explicit written directions what to do with them. They or their customers were the gainers or losers by the transactions made by Lester & Company, not Alexander Sullivan. The public knows very well that the Board of Trade would not sanction Lester & Company, or any other firm doing an open business for a bucket shop, and this was the reason for the concealment and use of Mr. Sullivan's name. A M.t« X FOBUEB. He Foaled Wella-Faraxo Company Out of Biff Money. Sah Jose, June 6.?Despite strenuous) efforts at secrecy, it has leaked out that Wells. Fargo & Co. have been mulcted in a large amount by a smooth-spoken young man who gave his name as Frank B. Chandon, and represented himself to be a Los Angeles real estate dealer, and who, indeed, was recognized by one or two persons here who had known him in that city. On May 23d, which was about the date of his arrival, he presented to Wells-Fargo's cashier a draft for $4,800, drawn by Mrs. Amy Crocker in favor of a third party whose name has not yet been divulged. The draft seemel to be properly indorsed and upon Chandon being endorsed by a gentleman who had known him at Los Angeles, the draft was paid and forwarded to San Francisco for collection. Chandon and the yonng man who was with him immediately dis- appeared, and have not yet been Been. Yesterday the local agent was notified that the endorsement was a forgery. Railroad* Raving Trouble. San Diego, June 6.?The Santa Fe Railroad to-day secured a temporary in- junction, restraining the Los Angeles, rian Diego and Yuma Road from crossing its track on the Atlantic street. The Santa Fe gave a bond of $10,000 fjr expenses. The case is set for Wednes- day. The Santa Fe Company has pur- chased four blocks of land on the water front for $100,000, and an official said this morning that upon this land ware- houses will be built to accommodate tbe P. and and O. business. SEATTLE IN ASHES. Tne Queen City of the Sound Swept by Fire. THE DAMAGE OVER $30,000,000 The Business Portion Swept by the Flames?Tacoma and Portland to the Rescue. Associated Press Dispatches to the Herald] Seattle, W. T., June 6 fire broke out at 2:39 this afternoon in the Pontius building and on Front street, and is now raging over a distance of five or six blocks with tremendous fury. The wind was from the north, and the direction of the fire was along Front street and the water front to a big brick block between Columbia Btreet and the Ban Francisco store. The indi- cations are now that the whole business portion of tbe city will go. involving a loss of millions of dollars. The magnifi- cent San Francisco store is also on fire, and the whole big block will doubtless g°- Tbe firemen are helpless, and have telegraphed for aid in all directions. The Western Union telegraph office iB about to be abandoned. INCONTROLLABLE FLAMEB. San Francisco, June G. ?The follow- ing brief particulars of tbe fire that is raging at Seattle were received here in a ditcounected form before the wires went down: The wind was blowing quite strongly at the time the fire started, and, when the fire department arrived, the Pontius buildingwas a roaring mass of flames. The firemen worked with a will, but were whollyunable to cope with the fire. The flames roee high in the air, aud the sparks were carried far away by the high wind and spread broadcast over that part of the city lying to the south, which contains many inflammable buildings. Within an hour, the Frye Opera House and the Coleman block, as well as the Denny block, were in flames. The Denny and Coleman blocks were filled with inflammable material and burned fiercely. The heat was so intense that the firemen were hardly able to approach the burning build'ngs. A DOOMED CITY, Unless tbe wind dies down nothing can save that pari: of the city lyingto the south. The firemen are becoming dis- couraged as they see the fire spreading whollyhoyond their control. The peo- ple in the southern part of the city are moving out, and the streets are crowded, as vehicles of every description are have been pressed into service. It is thought that the loss at present will be at least $5,000,000. THE WIRES BURNED OUT. The Western Union has lost all its wires to Seattle. The latest dispatch re- ceived here by Superintendent Jaynos was that the telegraph office bad taken fire, and tbe operators were obliged to abandon it. It is hoped that a tempo- rary wire will be secured tonight. Tacoma, W. T., June 6.?The city of Seattle is on fire. The Chief of the de- partment telegraphed to Tacoma for help from the fire department. The Port- land, Tacoma and Port Townsend en- gines were telegraphed for. The water supply is inadequate. Ono-third of the business portion of the city is already de- stroyed. The whole lower part of the city is burning. There is danger of a total loss of the business portion. Small fires are breaking out all over the city and the police department is inadequate. The telegraph facilities are crippled. The largest dry goods store north of San Francisco is burning. Tbe Post \u25a0Intelli- gencer building is in danger, and the shipping in the harbor. The fire is still raging and making way down First street, towards Five Points and the Occidental Hotel, where the buiidings are wood and close together. THE TACOMA FIRE LADDIES. The Tacoma Fire Company was dis- patched from here on a special train of flit cars, and is reported to have arrived. They were received with cheers. Port land has sent word that she will send an engine. Relief must come quickly, or Seattle will be destroyed. At 7:15 p. m. the Occidental Hotel and Yesler's wharf were gone. The fire was raging down Commercial street aud burning up Washington street. Nearly all the business part of the city is in ashes. At 7:40 p. m. both sides of Front Btreet up as far as the Opera House and down as far as Stetson &Post's Mill had burned. PORTLAND PILES IN. It is learned that Portland has pre- pared a special train with fire apparatus for Seattle. Mayor Wheelwright sent a hose-cart to Seattle at once with its com- F»iy. The news that Seattle was on fire created an intense excitement on the streets of Tacoma, and the newspaper offices were besieged for information. At 6 o'clock another special train and an- other fire company was sent to the relief. A special train from Portland, containing two steam engines and two fire compan- ies, will reach Tacoma about 8:30 p. m. It has a clear track, and is traveling at forty miles per hoar. Tacoma, W. T., 11:40 p. m.?The business portion of Seattle, the largest city in the Territory, is In ashes. Every bank, hotel, place of amusement, all the leading business houses, newspaper officer, railroad depots, mills, steamboat wharves, coal bunkers, freight ware- houses and telegraph offices, are burned, l'h \u25a0 fire began near the comer of Front and Pearl streets in the Seattle candy factory building, at 2:30 p. m, and, before midnight, had consumed the whole business section of the town,north- ward to Stetson &Post's mill, and along Front and Second streets to the water front, involvingaloss of over $5,000,000. The city is literally wiped out except the residence portion on the higher ground. At G :30 o'clock, the flames had reached the wharves, and the steamboats and shipping were compelled to move out in- to the stream. THE FLAMES DID I'll I.IK WORST. Tacoma, W. T., June 7, 1:06 a. m.? Tbe whole of the business portion of Seattle is destroyed, including all the newest and most costly brick blocks, all the banks and the principal hotels. The loss will run] into tbe millions, and break the Home Insurance Company. The fire still rages, but has done its worst. BRAVO TACOMA 1 A committee of the Chamber of Com- merce go by special train to-night with tents and will keep a large table in one of these constantly supplied withedibles. A fund of $50,000 is promised from this city. A CLEAN SWEEP MADE. Everything south of Union street and west of Second, and reaching around tbe gasworks, above Fourth street to Jack- son, was completely burned. The Ar- lington and Commercial hotels were de- stroyed. Itis now estimated that tbe total '038 to the city in buildings alone is 110,000,000, and all the personal lossen will probably reach $20,000,000. It is thought that many persons must have perißhed in the flames. Giant powder was used to blow up the buildings in the hope of sloping the progress of the flames, but to no effect. It is reported that two men have lynched for stealing. Seattle, W. T., June 7, 2:40 a. m.? A tempest of flame to-day visited Seattle and swept away the entire business por- tion of the city, incurring a loss of mil- lions of dollars and rendering penniless and homeless hundreds of people. The flames burst forth in a wooden building on Madison and Front streets and spread wi'h such appalling rapidity and such resistless fury that now there stands not a single large business bouse in the whole business part of the city. The magnificent Occidental Hotel, tbe San Francisco store, the Union block, the Poncin block, the Yesler-Leary building, the Post ? Intdligencer building, and, in- deed, the whole line of business build- ings bounded by Seneca street on the north, and the water front on the south and east has been laid out by the furious element. At this writing the flames are still rag- ing with unabated fury, and there is no guessing where it will end. The flameß have paeFed down Front street to the Oc- cidental Hotel, devastating the blocks on both sides of the street, and are now destroying all that lower portion of the city tributary to Commercial street. A detailed eketch of the disaster cannot at this time be given. THELOSS GENERAL AND RUINOUS. Arecord of the losses would include evriry business man of prominence in the town. It is a frightful calamity, from which few have escaped, and from which those who remain may not dare hope to escape. Of course, tre- mendous efforts were made by the Fire Department, badly supplied with ap paratus, to stay the progress of the flames. All the citizens made common cause with the firemen in the hopeless fight, and struggled with might and main for the salvation of the city. There were many others, too, whose first thought was to save their individual, possessions and the streets were soon crowded, and in many places blocked with teams loaded with valuables of every description seeking a place of safety in the hills. At one o'clock this morning the fires in the northern portion of the city had almofit entirely burned out, but in the southern portion the lumber fires were blazing brightly, the piling and wharves also being slowly con- sumed. All the city south of James street was built on either mrxde ground or on piles, and was mostly frame struc- tures. The place where the fire started was also built upon piles, as were two blocks adjoining on the north and south. From this reason, probably, the fire got such headway. THE INSURANCE. San Francisco, June 6.?lnquiry among the insurance men of this city elicits the information that the insurance in the Seattle fire will probably amount to one-third of the loss.

and others, and none save those who areactually employed, are allowed to re-main. Officers are arresting men

_every

hour, somo of them on the slightestprovocation. In all cases where the of-fense is trival, the victims are pressedinto work with the relief gangs.

HURRYING THE INTERMENTS.Notices were posted in all the morgues

today stating that, after today, bodieswould be held only twenty-four hoursfor identification. If, at the expirationof that time, they are not recognized,they are photographed, the photographbearing the same number as the morgue

number oi the corpse. Recognition is adifficult matter, as the bodies are mostterribly bruised and discolored when re-covered.

BLASTING THE DEATH GORGE.

The works of blasting the gorge at thePennsylvania bridge was prosecuted to-day with much better succes than on any

previous day. Several men armed withpoles were busy pushing theloosened by the blast out into the stream,so that they would float away.

THE OLDEST INHABITANT.Thpmas Jacobs, of Morrellville, is one

of the oldest inhabitants of the Cone-maugh valley. He said to-day that thewater of the river was much higher in1837 than it was last Friday, even afterthe dam broke. "The whole troubleabout this deplorable affair," hecontinued, "seems to be from the nar-rowing of the channel of the river, andthe dtflection of its course. "Iremem-ber well," said ho, "when the channelran down where the mill below thebridge now stands. The Conemaughhas always been a shallow stream. Af-ter heavy rainfalls itrises rapidly, as allmountain streams do. Its watershedis large and the hillsides are so con-structed that tbe water runs downrapidly, causing quick rises and turbu-lent currents.

THE WHOLE DAM TROUBLE."Primarily, I hold that the Cambria

Iron Company is responsible for the nar-rowing channel. Secondly, the SouthFork Club is responsible for not havingmade the dam secure beyond all possi-bilityof a break, especially when tbeycaused the dam to be enlarged by rais-ingthe breast. And third, the Pennsyl-vania railway is responsible for havingconstructed the viaduct with such lowarches and with ribs calculated to catchpieces of driftwood if they happen tostrike diagonally on the piers. The dammade by the gorge at the bridge is whatengulfed the town."

GENEROUS PITTSBURG.Pittsburg, June 6.?Contributions are

coming in rapidly for the relief of theJohnstown sufferers. It is estimated atthe Chamber of Commerce that $300,000has been subscribed. Chairman Mc-Creery, of the relief committee,tonight issued a circular in which hestates that it will require 10,000 men toclear the wreck along the ten miles ofdestruction, and place the city ina safe sanitary condition. Thiswill cost double the amountnow in the hands of the committeeand leaves nothing for the sufferers anddestitute, whose need is very great, allof which must be carefully attended to.The destitute are brought to thiscity, clothed and fed andhoused, or sent free to their friends allover the land. We ask that the gener-ous subscriptions, which are coming fromall over the country, be continued untilsufficient funds are provided to completethe above work.

Ciiicaoo, June 6 ?One of Laster &.Co.'a bookke.-p-irs waa put on the standat the Cronin inquest, to-day, and pro-ceeded to read an abstract of 116 trans-actions in stocks which Sullivan hadwith the firm during a certain time. Thelist was quite long and was not all read.

Witness said: "Mr. Snlliran neverdrew a check in favor of any syndicateof bucket-shop men for any sum until hehad money in hand from them to meetit. Coincident with the time when hewas thus acting as agent for the bucket-shop men, he received from PatrickEgan a large sum of money, ofwhich he was custodian. The fundwas transferred from Paris to New Yorkand thence to Chicago, where it was de-posited in the Traders' Bank. Sullivanknowing that no loss would occur to himpersonally from Leßter & Company'stransactions, it mattered little whatbank he drew the money from. He al-ways had syndicate money in hand beforedrawlrg a check to the order of theirbroker." Mr. Trude said further thatMr. Sullivan had Mr. Egan's receipt infull for the whole sum intrusted to hiskeeping, end can trace all of the channelsthrough which the money was finallydisbursed.Capt. Thomas F, O'Connor, a memberof Clan-na-Giel said that, in 1885, a mancame to see him. This man, he be-lieved, lived in Philadelphia, but hecculd not remember his name. Theman told him that some men weregoing across the water, and thatthe chances were that he (wit-ness), would be called on to go.O'Connor mentioned this to his friend,Dr. Cronin, who advised him not to go,saying that there were enough good,honest Irishmen behind English barswho have been given away as soon asthey arrived, and that he did not believein the dynamite policy. The strangersaw witness in Dr. Cronin's companyand did not see him again.

The only other notable witness of thewitness of the day was John F Biggs, alawyer, Senior Guardian (presidingofficer) of Camp No. 20, Clan-na-gael.Biggs was cross-examined in a way thatfor freedom and scope couldscarcely be surpassed. He tes-tified that Sullivan, the ice-man, is amember of Camp 20. Other than this,the relevancy of the bulk of the wit-ness's testimony was not apparent atthis stage of the proceedings. Witnessdeclared himself a fiiead of AlexanderSullivan.

The Daily News to morrow will say:"Itdoes not appear that the Irish causelost any money by Alexander Sullivan'sbanking operations."

Mr. Sullivan, when asked what bankhis account was transferred tn from theTraders', promptly rep'ied, the ChicagoNational.

Lawyer A. S. Trude, speakincr for Sul-livan, in an interview said: "Mr. Sulli-van was simply the agent of persons or acombination desiring to operate on theBoard cf Trade and his re-ceipts all show the word "Agent "Sullivan did not know anythingabout speculations of this character, andprobably could not tell a "put" from a"call." His name was simply used onLester & Co.'s books by a syndicate ofbucket shop men in order that theymight do business on the Board of Tradewhen their orders made itnecessary forthem to do so. The syndicate was madup of such firms as Murphy & Co. Mr.Sullivan met some of these parties in hislaw practica, and was given large sumsof money with explicit written directionswhat to do with them. They or theircustomers were the gainers or losersby the transactions made by Lester& Company, not Alexander Sullivan.The public knows very well that theBoard of Trade would not sanction Lester& Company, or any other firm doing anopen business for a bucket shop, and thiswas the reason for the concealment anduse of Mr. Sullivan's name.

Associated Press Dispatches to the Herald]

Seattle, W. T., June6 fire brokeout at 2:39 this afternoon in the Pontiusbuilding and on Front street, and is nowraging over a distance of five or sixblocks with tremendous fury. The windwas from the north, and the direction ofthe fire was along Front street and thewater front to a big brick blockbetween Columbia Btreet and theBan Francisco store. The indi-cations are now that the whole businessportion of tbe city will go. involvingaloss of millions of dollars. The magnifi-cent San Francisco store is also on fire,and the whole big block will doubtlessg°-

Tbe firemen are helpless, and havetelegraphed for aid in all directions.The Western Union telegraph office iBabout to be abandoned.

INCONTROLLABLE FLAMEB.San Francisco, June G.?The follow-

ing brief particulars of tbe fire that israging at Seattle were received here in aditcounected form before the wires wentdown: The wind was blowing quitestrongly at the time the fire started, and,when the fire department arrived, thePontius buildingwas a roaring mass offlames. The firemen worked with a will,but were whollyunable to cope with thefire. The flames roee high in the air,aud the sparks were carried faraway by the high wind and spreadbroadcast over that part of thecity lying to the south, whichcontains many inflammable buildings.Within an hour, the Frye Opera Houseand the Coleman block, as well as theDenny block, were in flames. TheDenny and Coleman blocks were filledwith inflammable material and burnedfiercely. The heat was so intense thatthe firemen were hardly able to approachthe burning build'ngs.

A DOOMED CITY,

Unless tbe wind dies down nothingcan save that pari: of the city lyingto thesouth. The firemen are becoming dis-couraged as they see the fire spreadingwhollyhoyond their control. The peo-ple in the southern part of the city aremoving out, and the streets are crowded,as vehicles of every description arehave been pressed into service. It isthought that the loss at present will beat least $5,000,000.

THE WIRES BURNED OUT.The Western Union has lost all its

wires to Seattle. The latest dispatch re-ceived here by Superintendent Jaynoswas that the telegraph office bad takenfire, and tbe operators were obliged toabandon it. It is hoped that a tempo-rary wire will be secured tonight.

Tacoma, W. T., June 6.?The city ofSeattle is on fire. The Chief of the de-partment telegraphed to Tacoma for helpfrom the fire department. The Port-land, Tacoma and Port Townsend en-gines were telegraphed for. The watersupply is inadequate. Ono-third of thebusiness portion ofthe city is already de-stroyed. The whole lower part of thecity is burning. There is danger of atotal loss of the business portion. Smallfires are breaking out all over the cityandthe police department is inadequate.The telegraph facilities are crippled.The largest dry goods store north of SanFrancisco is burning. Tbe Post \u25a0Intelli-gencer building is in danger, and theshipping in the harbor.

The fire is still raging and making waydown First street, towards Five Pointsand the Occidental Hotel, where thebuiidings are wood and close together.

THE TACOMA FIRE LADDIES.The Tacoma Fire Company was dis-

patched from here on a special train offlit cars, and is reported to have arrived.They were received with cheers. Portland has sent word that she will send anengine.

Relief must come quickly, or Seattlewill be destroyed.

At7:15 p. m. the Occidental Hotel andYesler's wharf were gone. The fire wasraging down Commercial street audburning up Washington street. Nearlyall the business part of the city is inashes.

At 7:40 p. m. both sides ofFront Btreetup as far as the Opera House and downas faras Stetson &Post's Millhad burned.

PORTLAND PILES IN.It is learned that Portland has pre-

pared aspecial train with fire apparatusfor Seattle. Mayor Wheelwright sent ahose-cart to Seattle at once with its com-F»iy.

The news that Seattle was on firecreated an intense excitement on thestreets of Tacoma, and the newspaperoffices were besieged for information. At6 o'clock another special train and an-other fire company was sent to the relief.A special train from Portland, containingtwo steam engines and two fire compan-ies, will reach Tacoma about 8:30 p. m.It has a clear track, and is traveling atforty miles per hoar.

Tacoma, W. T., 11:40 p. m.?Thebusiness portion of Seattle, the largestcity in the Territory, is In ashes. Everybank, hotel, place of amusement, all theleading business houses, newspaperofficer, railroad depots, mills, steamboatwharves, coal bunkers, freight ware-houses and telegraph offices, are burned,l'h \u25a0 fire began near the comer of Frontand Pearl streets in the Seattle candyfactory building, at 2:30 p. m, and,before midnight, had consumed thewhole business section of the town,north-ward to Stetson &Post's mill, and alongFront and Second streets to the waterfront, involvingaloss of over $5,000,000.The city is literallywiped out except theresidence portion on the higher ground.At G :30 o'clock, the flames had reachedthe wharves, and the steamboats andshipping were compelled to move out in-to the stream.

THE FLAMES DID I'll I.IK WORST.Tacoma, W. T., June 7, 1:06 a. m.?

Tbe whole of the business portion ofSeattle is destroyed, including all thenewest and most costly brick blocks, allthe banks and the principal hotels. Theloss will run] into tbe millions, and breakthe Home Insurance Company. Thefire stillrages, but has done its worst.

BRAVO TACOMA 1A committee of the Chamber of Com-

merce go by special train to-night withtents and will keep a large table in oneof these constantly supplied withedibles.A fund of $50,000 is promised from thiscity.

A CLEAN SWEEP MADE.Everything south of Union street and

west of Second, and reaching around tbe

gasworks, above Fourth street to Jack-son, was completely burned. The Ar-lington and Commercial hotels were de-stroyed. Itis now estimated that tbe total'038 to the city in buildings aloneis 110,000,000, and all the personal lossenwill probably reach $20,000,000. It isthought that many persons must haveperißhed in the flames. Giant powderwas used to blow up the buildings inthe hope of sloping the progress of theflames, but to no effect. It is reportedthat two men have lynched for stealing.

Seattle, W. T., June 7, 2:40 a. m.?A tempest of flame to-day visited Seattleand swept away the entire business por-tion of the city, incurring a loss of mil-lions of dollars and rendering pennilessand homeless hundreds of people. Theflames burst forth in a wooden buildingon Madison and Front streets andspread wi'h such appalling rapidityand such resistless fury that nowthere stands not a single large businessbouse in the whole business part ofthe city. The magnificent OccidentalHotel, tbe San Francisco store, theUnion block, the Poncin block,the Yesler-Leary building, thePost ? Intdligencer building, and, in-deed, the whole line of business build-ings bounded by Seneca street on thenorth, and the water front on the southand east has been laid out by the furiouselement.

At this writing the flames are still rag-ing with unabated fury, and there is noguessing where it will end. The flameßhave paeFed down Front street to the Oc-cidental Hotel, devastating the blocks onboth sides of the street, and are nowdestroying all that lower portion of thecity tributary to Commercial street. Adetailed eketch of the disaster cannot atthis time be given.

THELOSS GENERAL AND RUINOUS.Arecord of the losses would include

evrirybusiness man of prominence in thetown. It is a frightful calamity, fromwhich few have escaped, and fromwhich those who remain may notdare hope to escape. Of course, tre-mendous efforts were made by the FireDepartment, badly supplied with apparatus, to stay the progressof the flames. All the citizens madecommon cause with the firemen in thehopeless fight, and struggled with mightand main for the salvation of thecity. There were many others, too,whose first thought was to savetheir individual, possessions and thestreets were soon crowded, and in manyplaces blocked with teams loaded withvaluables of every description seeking aplace of safety in the hills.

At one o'clock this morning the firesin the northern portion of the city hadalmofit entirely burned out, but in thesouthern portion the lumber fires wereblazing brightly, the piling andwharves also being slowly con-sumed. All the city south of Jamesstreet was built on either mrxde groundor on piles, and was mostly frame struc-tures.

The place where the fire started wasalso built upon piles, as were two blocksadjoining on the north and south. Fromthis reason, probably, the fire got suchheadway.

THE INSURANCE.San Francisco, June 6.?lnquiry

among the insurance men of this cityelicits the information that the insurancein the Seattle fire will probably amountto one-third of the loss.
