YESTERDAY.
Owing to th' fact that the North Division was
atcmiblc only acres* Klmie and Division street
bridges and through the dark LaSalle street tun
nel. passage through which was forbidden to teams,
the people wiia. cstorday visited that quarter of
the city were chiefly th«*c who had formerly tired
there, and were bunting for shreds and scraps of
property, or vicre trying to find the places where
they had ouco lived and tho properly they bad once
owned. The great rush of visitors on foot and ic
carriages was across Randolph. Lake, and Madison :
street bridges into Ihe South Division, People
from the West Side, from lower down on the South
Division, and strangers who had just reached the
city, all turned lu that direction,
and wandered from point [to point,
often puzzled as to their whereabouts, and seeking
in vain tor old tud familiar landmarks. The jwln
„’.paTbu»lueis iu the South Division yesterday was
the
DIGGING OUT OF SAFES
from the smoking bedding* In which they were
buried. Several persons were smart enough to
make Urn: a business, and thoy succeeded In pet*
;Jng all the work they'wanted. A few ropes,
shovels, lever,’,' onfl, * occasionally,»little water,
made up the stock in trade, borne bad gotten oat
their fourth fate by *2 o'clock, and were hunting
arutmd in search of other jobs, Many of the (*afc<*
came up in excellent condition, while
others wtre Jim most deplorable

Others which had bjcn <i|*encd were found to be

THE. STREETS.
On crossing the river at MadUon street there Is
vaaancyoa the north side of the street, aud uclb
iuucl.-c, and with a few noticeable exceptions
there remain but insignificant and one-story relies
«>f once fir.-i class buildings. I-aw’s coalyard, on
t lie south hide of the street, is on fire, and even
where the fiames have not broken out, the white
Mnoke is pouring out at h fearful rate. .Some of it
may, however, be saved, by the liberal and con
stant use of water. Beyond there, going
east, there is practically nothing until the relics of
he Otis Block are reached at (be corner of LaSalle
nd Madison. Just to tbo «» ntli on LaSalle, the
walls of the Arcade Building, which was Immedi
•njc’.y in the rear of the Farwcll Hall, remain com
paratively intact.
THE TRIBUNE BUILDING.
THE TRIBUTE was, by several bums, thclaat
newspaper in Chicago to survive the general
destruction, and its magnificent fire-proof building
was the Inst to succumb, although it bad been sur
rounded by fire on two tides for about four hours.
The building was a perfect model of architectural
elegance, uud had been constructed throughout
with reference to safety end durability in case of
fire. Thu ceilings were of coriugated Iron, resting
upon wrought iron “1" beams, while every parti
tion wallin the entire structure was of brick. It
was, in all rcsjiectN one of the most absolutely
- fire-proof” buildings ever erected. That is. it was
fire prool up to the date of its destruction. It was
completed in April, INKi, at a coat of about fiS,-
003. and its content* were fully $100,030 wore.
Itelying upon the integrity of their edifice, THE
TRIBUNE comjmny-'had takon no insurance, al
though they now have little cause to regret this
neglect. lu the corner of the first flour was the
counting room and business office, with a fire proof
vault for the safe keeping of records, valuables,
etc. Ou the Madison and Dearborn street front*
were elegant stores of various kinds, all filled with
Mucks of goods, lu the basement were the boilers
and engines, two of Hoe's eight-ciliudcr presses,
fcveral folding machines, large quantities of print
ing paper, and a vast uf Dilscellaucona
machinery, tools, appliances oud nuiluni! necuuary
to the canning <m of u great newspaper.
The kbcond and.third floors of the building wore
devoted to ofliccs, allot which were occupied. Ou
the fourth floor w re 1 1 ho editorial aud comjoelng
rooms, all mpcrbly filled up.
As stated above, .the building withstood the
Etorm'for several hours, and it was not until 10
o'clock on Monday forenoon, sis hours after it bad
, seemingly escaped, that it was reached from the
eastward from McViikcrV Theatre. The Interior
' woodwork aiid cotubuftiblc malarial was consumed
stance, but the floors and walla generally remained
iot'aet. although all wore so bll?te red,'crocked, and
xw I tied a* to be almost worthless for future use.
In the jtrivute ulliee ol the business manager ou
the ground floor was a relic of the siege of Parle, A

The question of ibo removal of the
SECOND PRESBYTERIAN
congregation has been eternally settled. The hard
limestone walls of the church resisted very well,
notwithstanding the slight amount of hltnmen in
them. The southern tower remains, and the walls
are all upon a level vltha point Just aliore the top
of the great front window. The experience of this

wall of good brick will stand as well, and resist
the action of the flames ns well as any stone that
is need here, excepting granite. The eflect of the
fire upon the Athens marble baa been remarkable.
In some places the stone has disappeared alto
gether. In others, such os the LaSalle street front
of
THE COURT HOUSE,
it has been gnawed and eaten away, or fallen off
ia great flakes. The sandstone and granite may

Is a sign to the effect that parties wanting room on

corner of Thirteenth and Michigan avenue. Tho
American Merchants’ Union Express have obtained
possession ofa part of the ground, including tbe
diamond, n n 4 Grey Brothers have bold of the north
fiftyfeet of tbe base ball lot. C. T. Holies, dealer
in stoves, have also begun running up a small
booth. Tbe ground is covered with piles of lum

Cheyenne la its incipient days than anything cl*o.
THE IRON »TDHiC>
of J. V, Ayer: Hall, Kimbark A Co., and other*, on
Michigan avenue, between Lake and Randolph
street*, present a curious spectacle. Tlwy are
filled with iron twisted, distorted, and boot oat of
all shape, while across the street the Immense iron
rafters and beams have been dealt with in the most,
extraordinary fashion. In many of these storey
and, indeed, generally io the large wholesale warc
.houecs, the fires were still burning, and, of course,
no attempt was made Jo pot them out. The side,
walks of
THE UNION DEPOT,
(hick and strong, are still standing, but 11/ C
offices in the rear have caved io except at the north
east corner, when) one I all pinnacle remains. The
building occupied by the Chicago, Burlington &
Quincy aud Michigan "Central Road* has been
gutted, but the walls are still partially standing.
The Michigan Central freight depot has also been
cleaned out, though the walls ore uji to lha spring
of the roof. Quite an amount of sugar was lost
here. Just south of this depot half a dozen cars
were burned, the (racks yet remaining on
the track. .Near by was a car which
had just run up from Tolono on the Jilt-
Illinois Central Road filled with provisions, gener
ally bread and cheese, some of which were issued
on Hie spot to hungry men who happened to "be
nearby. The trains of the Illinois & Michigan
Central stop just {a front of the old depot.
STEAMERS FROM .ABROAD.
At the head of the slip whiih lies just
west of Elevator A was the Providence,.
oncAf the five Amoekeag steamers which came on
from Piiuvorgh, and the Pharalr, of Detroit, en
gaged in pumping tester through a long line of hoac,

the ruins beyutuL Another engjqa JT* f near the
Centra! Elevator, playing upon as ifluncseo I#U of
wheat, which was in
ELEVATOR A,
and which was bursting out in little puffs of smoke
all over tu surface. It cannot be very easily
extinguished, and ail that is to be expected U that
It will gradually moulder away.
THE MARINE HOSPITAL,
an old acd substantial building, is in very good
order, comparatively. Of course the Inner walla
and the roof arc gone, but Ibe outside wails have
btoodilvery well.
U is not possible to ascertain as yet the entire

however, a new vessel belonging to Captain Good,
rich, was lying off Goodrich’s docks, and tried to
run not, but stuck just beyond and behind Hath
bone's stove manntactory on the north side of the
river and sank there, her boilers now being just
visible. Eight or nine schooners and brigs were
also caught near Ibe mouth of tho river, and burn
ed to the water's edge. From Hush street bridge
cast, on tho north bank, the coal heaps ore In a

of that, arc safe. Rush street bridge Itself is a
hopeless and utter wreck, as is also the State street

and nothing is left to give an Idea of what wan

is iron, and in another a quantity of lima which

here were one or two burnt safes, and as many dis

Water street is done for, and State street, from
the bridge to tho Flret National Bane, is in the

part of the city ate so scanty as lomake it almost

bad only reached Ohio street, when suddenly and
in an instant, the roof was and the’

buildings intervening were untouched,
and It seemed as If an invisible
tongue of flame shut across and slincfc tbe roof
