A BIG BLOCK BUHNED. The Fire Loss at Philadelphia About $2,000,000. WASAMAKER'S STORE SCORCHED. Thirty BuildinRa Destroyed lie fore the Flames Were Gotten I'niler Control. Several Firemen Injured One SI an Dropped Dead A List of the Losses. Philadelphia, Jan. 27. The fire here destroyed one of the most valuable blocks" of real estate in the city. It was the block bounded by Market, Thirteenth, Filbert and Juniper streets, in the very heart of the city. A few steps to the right looms the massive city hall : around the corner f-tands the Pennsylvania railroad terminal and directly across the way John Wana maker's great store stretches from street to street. So fierce was the flame and so strong the wind which aided its destructive work that even ' this building-, distant the width of Market street, was saved almost by a miracle from total destruction and Mr. Wanamaker places his loss at $ lOO.OOO. The total loss is variouslv estimated at from 1,000, 000 to t'.SOO.OOO, but in the chaos and confusion now existing it is all but impossible to secure accurate figures. The losses are very generally covered bv insurance. The fire originated in the basement of the six story building, extending from 1300 to 1317 Market street, occu pied in the lower floors by Hanscom Eros., crocers, and above by the um brella factory of Hirsch Bros. The cmoke was discovered by a policeman, who promptly turned in an alarm, but the fire made such headway that before the engines could be put to work the building was a mass of flames. With uncontrollable rapidity it then spread in all directions, destroying about 30 buildings before it had been finally controlled. The fire reached the bi? tower of Wanamaker's store about an hour after it started and the energies of the department were concentrated upon saving that building. The tower was entirely destroyed and other dam age done. The buildings wholly or partially de stroyed and the estimated losses were : Markset street ISO 1-0;$.

Wanamaker's loss on stock will reach $25,000 and Hirsh & Bros. ?200,000. Several firemen were injured, but none seriously, and one man dropped dead of excitement. FEW HUNGRY IN CHICAGO. The Suffering Relieved by Systematic Work S33.000 Subscribed. Chicago, Jan. 27. Ihe quick re sponse of the citizens to Mayor Swift's appeal has resulted in the relief of suffering in Chicago with rapidity and to an extent far beyond expectation. Through the systematic canvass of the police and the prompt attention to the cases reported by the officers it is safe to sav that but few persons are sufier- intr in Chicago from cold or hunger. During 4S hours nortless than 1,200 families were supplied through the police with food and fuel. The work of the police was reinforced by that of the lettercarries who. acting on Postmaster tlesmg s orders, gath ered the names of the unfortunates on their routes and turned them in to the substations, the superintendents of which then reported to the police. The work of the Salvation Army was far reaching and the information in the bands of the "slum" workers was used to great advantage in the relief work. Mayor Swift has been busy receiving subscriptions to the relief lund. i; uiiy 135,000 being subscribed. MANUFACTURERS CONVENTION, Search Delivered His Annual Addreis. A Tariff Committee.

President Search announced the annual committees of the convention, after which he de hvered his annual address. Charles Heber Clark, Pennsylvania ; G. J. Seabury. New York; F. S. Fish. Indiana; J. F. Hanson, Georgia, and Lv B. Jewell, Connecticut, were ap--pointed a committee on tariff. The special tariff committee met in the Manufacturers' club.

Trouble Arises Over the Dank Failnre at Newport. Ky. Cincinnati, Jan. 27. A sensational feature has arisen in the settlement of the affairs of the First National bank of Newport, which teems to involve a clash between the state court and the comptroller of the currency. Some of the depositors have filed a suit asking for the appointment of a re--ceiver, alleging that the directors hare abandoned the management of the afiairs of the bank and that Cashier Youtsey, who owes the bank f 150,000, is disposing of his property and giving preference to certain creditors. No officer of the bank appeared to oppose the application and Judge Helm granted it and it is said will appoint John T. Hodge receiver. By what means the order of the court will be enforced is not made apparent. Receiver Wilshire, appointed by Comptroller Eckels, is still in charge. Hollldayaburg liank Starts Tp.

A Kelief Train Sent. Altoona, Pa., Jan. 27. The reports of the accident to a sleighing party near Tyrone were much exaggerated. A party of IS young men and women of that town started in a large sled lor a night's diversion at a farmhouse in Eden valley, several n.iles east cf Tyrone. While descending a small em bankment hading from the railroad tracks, the brakes failed to hold and the sled slipped ever the embankment, failing five feet. Miss Alice Hadden of Washington, and Miss Jennie Stover of Et li. toute. both of whom were visiting in Tyrone, were picked up unconscious, but they were l.ot seriously injured, ihe party suffered mainly from the intense ecld. The news ot the accident reached Tyrone in a sensational form, and the railroad authorities promptly sent to the scene a relief train with four physi cians. At a late hour the party was re turned to Tyrone and all were able to walk to their homes. TO PROMOTE WOMAN'S SUFFRAGE. The National Convention Now Heine Held at lien Moines. Des Moines, Jan. 27. The National American Woman's Suffrage associa tion annual meeting has a fair attend ance. Seventeen states are represented. Among those on the committee on reso lutions are : Ohio, Dr. Viola Swift ; Pennsylvania, Mrs. Mary B. Luckin. Rachael Foster Avery, corresponding secretary, reported over 2,000 articles published during the past year in nearly 700 papers, read by more than 1,000,000 people in 40 states. Although national headquarters at Philadelphia has done pood work during the past year at an expense of $1,300, she recommended the removal of headquarters to New York to co-operate with the national organi zation. Susan B. Anthony, president, gave her annual address. It was devoted largelv to a statement of the work in California, which she regarded as very satisfactory. She said that California's defeat is simply victory deferred, for the legislature is sure to resubmit an amendment and they will be victorious in November, 1S0S. Nevada, Oregon, Washington and Montana are also likely to have suffrage campaigns and prospects for success are good. She urged a more thorough local organiza tion for the education of voters. Rev. Anna Howard Shaw of Phila delphia also reported on the work in California. Laura Clay of Kentucky spoke for that 6tate, telling of satisfactory prog ress in the recognition of women upon state boards and in special legislation asked for by women. CHOLERA MAY FOLLOW FAMINE. A Correspondent Reports Iire Distress In ISiJapur, India. Copyrighted. Bijapur, Presidency of Bombay, Jan. 27. The special correspondent of the Associated Press, who is visiting the distressed provinces of India, has ar rived at Bijapur, about 245 miles south east of Bombay, and finds in .this dis trict the keenest distress, especially among the people of the lower castes. These are on-the verge of starvation and are only saved from it by the gov ernment relief work, which enables them to earn enough money to at least keep body and soul together while awaiting the brighter state of affairs which receut rains are expected to pro Tide later in the year. It is estimated that fully one-tenth of the cattle in this district have al ready perished from lack of f jdder, and the loss from this cause will undoubt edly be considerably increased between now and the growing of the new crops. In the fields cau .be seen lying numbers of carcasses of animals being devoured by vultures. There are many gangs of robbers engaged in pillaging grain stores whenever an opportunity arises, and the prisons are full of thieves who have been captured while stealing grain or in attempting to do so. Among the masses there are many caes of iilness. arising from lack of proper nourish ment and it is regarded as certain that cholera will reach this district sooner or later, owing to the careless ness of the perple. A COSTLY RAILROAD WRtCK. The Atlantic City lia.ier Co-t Almift a bullion In liiitna Campen, N. J.. Jan. 27. The rail road accident which occurred on thv Atlantic City meadows last summer, when a Philadelphia and Heading flyer ran into a West Jersey train, and resulted in the killing of 44 people and the injuring of about loo more, has proven a very costly one to the rail roads. Since the accident tho companies have been settling the claims for dam ages outside of courts. It is estimated .that thus far they have paid out in damages a sum amounting to nearly f 1. 000,000. One of the latest claims to be settled is that of Mrs. Samuel Mita. She brought snit for 00,000 damages for the death of her husband and one daughter and the injuring of herself and a son.

MISSION OF WOLCOTT. Silver Men Deride Senate. It In the CONFERENCE KILL CONSIDERED. White San There I No Purpo-e to Op pose the Measure, but Ieelares It Will Do o Cioo.l Stewart OflVr an Amend ment to the Hill. Washington. Jan. 27. The Wolcott bill for an international monetary con ference has been considered lor the first time in the senate. Mr. Wmte (IJem.. Cal.). and Mr. Cannon (Ind., Utah) and Mr. Daniel (Dcin.. Va.) urged that the conference would be futile and was not intended as a serious movement toward bimetallism. Mr. White spoke derisively of Mr. Wolcott's trip to Europe as the repre sentative of the coming administration in behalf of bimetallism. This envoy antecedent had not met with the most Hearty reception, if the cable reports could be believed, but had been referred by British statesmen to their brothers on tho continent. Mr. White said the senator from New Hampshire (Chand ler), in his leisure hours from the sen ate, edited a newspaper which con tained an article which Mr. White had read at the desk amidsomo amusement. It spoke of Senator Sherman as the great leader who would solve tho prob lem of bimetallism. Turning to Mr. Sherman, Mr. White asked the Ohio senator if he was ready to assume the task mapped out for him. There was no purpose so far as he knew, Mr. White proceeded to oppose this measure, as it was felt to be harm less, while it might satisfy its promo ters who might feel that it kept some of their promises, yet, with this act, they were doomed to certain failure. When it had remained unacted upon, some other device might be resorted to. The senator referred to the lonesome ness of the proposed commission, going about and seeking nations with whom to confer. He doubted if anyone would be appointed to this commission, unless some large emolument was at tached to the places. It was a futile movement, declared the senator, and havintr relieved themselves of the finan cial question by this harmless device, its promoters would then turu their at tention to levying more taxes. Mr. Cannon (Ind. Utah) urged an amendment directing the president of the United States to call the confer ence, and reciting that the purpose was toward securing a ratio between lo to 1 and 10 to 1. lie said the Wolcott bill merely relieved Mr. McKinley, h aving him the mere administrative duty of appointing commissioners. There was a belief, he said, that Mr. McKinley, in his holy of holies, enter tains a conviction favorable to bimetall ism and the bill should be made broad enough to permit the coming president to aid in the accomplishment of this ereat end. instead of retiring into a passive and administrative attitude. As to international conferences in gen eral, Mr. Cannon said he had little faith in them, and it would be about as difficult to galvanize life into one of the Pharaohs as to get any definite re suits from such a conference. The senator referred also to Mr. Wolcott's trip to Europe and said little was to be expected from this "dilletante dull ance" with great questions involved. Mr. Stewart (Pop., rev.) offered an amendment providing that in case the international conference failed to er feet an agreement as to bimetallism then, within 30 days after the adjourn ment of the conference, the secretary of the treasury shall coin all gold and sil ver brought to the mints into standard silver dollars and such gold coins as are now provided by law. Mr. Daniel, referring to Mr. Wolcott's trip, said it was a remarkable and pa thetic spectacle to see this sojourn to the foot of the British throne. The American people going to Lombard 6treet and seeking interviews with Eu ropean financiers presented an impres sive picture which deserved a place m the rotunda of the capitol. 1 he sena tor referred satiricallv to a crusade for bimetallism in which Mr. Sherman was to be at the head of the crusade. EX-QUEEN LIL'S RECEPTION. rbe Fnbllc Violt Her at Her Hotel In Washington. Washington, Jan. 27. Ex-Queen Liliuokalani has held a reception foi two hours at her rooms in the Shore- ham. It was her purpose to confint the reception mainly to newspaper men and such persons in official life as caret? to call. However, the ladies in the hotel soon passed the news of the affaii to their friends elsewhere and in conse quence the small parlor set apart foi the callers was well crowded with per sons, mostly of the fair sex, aud gen erally animated by a feeling of curiosity to see tne woman wno nai been a queen and had tilled a page in the history oi Polvnesia. The queen was assisted in the recep tion of visitors by her lady-in-waiting, Miss Kia Nahaolelua, and by her secre tary and agent, Joseph Haleluhe, both native Hawaiians. Mr. Palmer, acting as her chamberlain, received the callers at the doorway and presented them to the receiving party. The queen was be comingly attireu in a black siik gown trimmed with royal purple and bore herself with great dignity, responding atitiy to tne salutations or her callers. and having a pleasant word for every one. Whether or not she will again re ceive the public in Washington is not known, and when she was asked th question now long sne intended to re main here she replied that she did not know ; she found it so pleasant in Wash ington mat sne nan as yet given no tiought to departure.

It provided for an appropriation of $ 1,000, 000,000 for the education and civilization of the "Seeley savages of the Manhat tan reservation." The house greeted the reading of the amendment with a hearty laugh. Mr. Hartman maoe no remarks upon it and it was ruled out on the point of order that it was "new legislation." AN ANSWER TO RODRIGUEZ. President Hitchcock Claims Nicaragua Canal Company Has Ioue Its l'art Washington. Jan. 27. Hiram Hitch cock, president of the Nicaragua Canal company, has written a letter to Secre tary Olney in reply to Senor Rodriguez' statement, which the secretary sent to the senate. Mr. Hitchcock says that when Senor Rodriguez says the company has for feited its charter because of neglect to make the surveys as required, "he omits to inform vou that the final sur veys and location of the caual were made and concluded by a commission of engineers in strict conformity with article 47 of the concession and were formally accepted by the government of Nicaragua on Oct. b. lbSO." Mr. Hitchcock aLso asserts that the company has iuiiy complied wiin tne requirements of the concession. "The letter of the minister," he concludes, is an attack upon the integrity of the Maritime Canal company, and its con cessions ; and on behalf of that com pany I ask the protection aud aid of the government of the United States in the defense and maintenance of it concessionary rights aud its property. SHERMAN SURE TO RESIGN. Qrnvenor Oenie the Senator Might Ke- consider His Decision. Washinoton, Jan. 27. General Grosvenor of Ohio declines to discuss the rumors from Ohio as to the proba bility that Governor Bushnell will ap point Lieutenant Governor Jones to the vacancy in the senate upon the retire ment of Senator Sherman, except to say that the sentiment in Ohio, as expressed in the newspapers, seemed to him over whelmingly in favor of Mr. Hanca. With regard to the rumor that Senator Sherman might reconsider his accept ance of the state portfolio in case Mr. Haiina was not appointed to succeed him he expressed himself most cm- phatieally. "Mr. Mierman, said ne, "was ten dered the premiership by Mr. McKin ley on his own merits. He accepted, and he would have no right now to re pudiate his acceptance because of dis satisfaction with matters growing out of his retirement from the senate, and. moreover, I can say most positively that he has no intention of reconsider ing his action."
