" Wf seem to have strnck one of those streaks
of bad luck which sometimes oversha-ljw the
Wttofce<bf the most skillfu. and deserving. No
matter what we hold, the radicals have just
enough to beat it. New Jersey 's two little nair
torn out neither more nor less than Missouri's
three little aces. We thought we had a full hand
ii Tennessee and a ilush, at least, in Alabama ?
and so we did huve?but the show-down proves
them to be not worth a cent. The raise we made
on Indiana cost us all we had won and a little
more beside. We had slipped Virginia in our
sl> eve and bid Arkansas under the table. But i
it's no nse. They beat us holding, beat ns draw
it g, and heat us plaving. It is evidently not our
moon. We had a si- kly hoj.e that by hanging on I
things might brighten. But the news this morn

worse in another. The best we can do is to j-imp
the game and try our luck some other time.

C0?TIIT10N OF BOSTON 1STRANCE COMPANtBS.
It is impotable to give anything like an vcu
rate, or even an approximate, report of insur
ance. Some of the largest firms have hid no
tniM to look over their j>olicies. At an infor
mal meeting of the leading insurance officers, a
statement was made that the losses will be
nearly paid tn full. It is stated that ouly three
insurance companies in Boston have suspended,
namely: International, the Corn Exchange and
Humboldt. President Oakley, of the New Vork
Board of Underwriters, estimates the total in
surance loss in Boston at not much over
SICO.OTO.MK). The Boylston must stop.
SANSAKI) ROOKS.
At the relief meeting in Hew Vork yesterday,
resolutions wtte adopted disapproving of the
construction of Mansard roofs on large and lofty
buildings, and calling lor the appointment by
the tire insurance companies of a board oi en
gineers, who shall be invested with legal au.
thority to blow up all buildings wher. they deem
it necessary to prevent the spread of fires. The
New York board of aldermen, at a meeting,
forbade the crection of mansard roofs unless ot
lire proof materials.
ilATEP.IAL AID FOR THE SCFFBRBR8.
Keliet meetings of citizens were held yester
day and to-dav in New York, Pittsburg, Balti

speeches of sympathy for the Boston sufferers
were made, and#100,00u donated for their relief.
The Cincinnati common council has appointed
a commit.ee to communicate with the Bxston
authorities, and, if necessary, to visit that city
and ascertain what aid Cincinnati may be able
to render. A large relief meeting wai held in
St. I/onis yesterday.
KFKKCT OF TUB K1KBON BURINBSSfN BEW YORK.
Wall street, New York, was more quiet yester
dav, and the panicky feeling was dying out.
There was but little business transacted in the
wool, hardware, leather, or dry goods trade.
Assistant Secretary Richardson, of the Treasury
Department, was in consultation with leading
bankets and merchants regarding the situation.
It is saM that Secretary Boutwell has stopped
the withdrawal trom the banks of the green
backs deposited some time since to relieve the
market.
The following graphic story of the fire is told
by a cortesj ondent of the New York Tints :
ORIGIN OF THE F1KK.
The flames which commenced the awful work
of destroctioa won first discovered about 7X
o'clock Saturday night in the engine-room ot
the large four-story granite store, sitiiHted at
the corner of Summer aud Kingstou streets,
occupied by l'ebbets, Baldwin Jfc Davis, whole
sale dry goo Is dealers. The tire must have been
r-uioldering (or some time, as when it was first
discovered the fiames had gained such volume
as doomed the entire bunding. There was
scarcely any wind stirring when the first alarm
was given, and though the light of the fire was
soon a bright one, nobody imagined that it
would prove to be so appalling a disaster. When
the firemen arrived on the ground they found
that the flames had reached the fourth story of
the building, and before they got to work with
their engines every window vomited forth smoke
and llame.the heat being so intense that, for
the moment, they had to retreat. Still the fire
men nersevered and get several large streams
of water playing on the burning building before
any of the adjoining stores caught fire.
THK FlhK ui'KKimt ALONO MANSARD ROOFS
The buildings in the vicinity were all of
granite, four stories high, each surmounted with
a Mansard r-?of. The detached splinters flew
readily, as the air was heated by the terrible
heat, Ind the flames began licking the Mausard
roof on tbe opposite si le, far above the reach
of the strean s directed toward it from all quar
ters. The tire was constantly iu the air, and
one building after another caught on the roof,
and the flames skipped lightly along from one
window sill to another, so thai in less than thirty
minutes it became evident that the whole city
in one direction was at the mercy of the flames'.
A GlteSD BIT AfPALl.lNO 8CSNB.
The scene at 10 o'clock was a grand one, de
spite the destruction visible on ev~ry hand. TUe
gutters were full of water that had been thrown
u] < ii the burning houses only to fall impotent
and di; appear in the culverts. The heat was so
great that tlie blocks of granite composing the
wail.- of the ptores already on tire actually began
to explode, the fragments being scattered in
eveiy direction, lloots fell in with a crash
every moment, carrying with them the floors
beiuath, heavily freighted as they were with
'arge stocks of valuable goods. As the interiors
thus fell a prey to the element, walis began to
bn'ge and ijalver, finally sinking to the pave
ment in hu,.e m?.8?J*s of heated and blistered
stone. The wind, hitherto a high one, having
gradually grown iu strength as the fire pro
gressed, became at length a gale, the flames
seimiugiy having the effect to create currents of
their own. Words tail me in describing the ap
l allii'g fccne a? this stage of the Ore. Building
after building fell passively before tlie flames,
and it seemed au almost Impossible task to at
tempt to check their progress. Whole blocks
were on fire, and the very streets ^werc fall z'
rtamcs. as immense stacks of go-Wla Lad been
there piled tip in readiness for removal, only to
fall into the grasp of the element that was surg
ing forward toward the water Irout in reeistioe
fury.
SEW TKBKORS.
The Babel of contusion assumed a new phase
about II o'clock, lor the tenement houses at the
upper end of Federal street began to catch fire,
and the scenes were intensified by the affrighted
actions and loud cries of the inmates of those
crowded edifices. Flying hither aud thither in
their frenzied terror, men, women aud children
only added to the confusion without in the least
helping themselves. Under ordinary circum
stances, many of the Incidents witnessed at that
point would have been deemed ludicrous, but
the it tense excitement prevailing among all
classes prevented any such Impression. Furni
ture w as carried into the streets only to bo bro
ken and abandoned. From every window were
thrown perishable articles, causing sew dangers
for tl ose on the pavements. Pale faces, ren
dered more ghastly by the glare of blazing
buildings, peeped from high wlndowi In abject
terror at the pro. pect. Loud cries for help were
frequently heard, and it la quite certain that
manv of these piteous appeals were wholly tn
vain, for many lives were undoubtedly lost, all
traces of the missing persons having utterly dis
appeared.
BLOWING CF TBI COWTlGtTOrS STBBKTS.
By this time it had become evident to all that
in spite of the utmost exertions of the lire de
partment the flames were gaining. There was
then no alternative left save to blow np the
streets closing to thoae already sheeted with
llame. At two o'clock this was done. Chief
Engineer Damrlll, who had heal fated at adopt
ing so costly a remedy, hesitated no longer. He
established a cordon ronnd the streets leading
to Milk street, driving off the gazers with the
jollee. Soon the measured tramp of tbe United
States marines was heard as they marched np
Washington street from their quarters in the
navy yard, aud they reinJOrcod the overworked
p 1 ce. To this combined force was 9<x?*i adde 1
m toiiiiir of cit;*ens nutter the leading of Mtyor

and Col Shepsrd as subalterns. Anl

numerous explosi >n? ?*.< beard, and, though
women grew pale and children began to cry at
the terrific soutuls, yet they were nevertheless
elear'.y welcome, further indicated th it the po
sition was fully realized', and that the eonfla,ira.
tion was being' fairly choked. Three m >re ex
plosions were beard, ami immediate'.)- a l.tige
inock in Devonshire street was blown partially
into the air. Then came the tnrn of Federal
street, and quickly a treat gap wag in.ule iu that
line street.
TUB POLICE A7CD TH* TIIHTIJ.
Despite the terror that prevailed there wore
present in the crowd man> thieve?, who beg*n
their nefarious operatiutiS. Thefts were n i
merotis and were committed with perfect im
l-ULity tor a time. as It ?m ilmlutoly im,->?si
tie for the |>olice to distinguish owners from
thieves, all being loaded alike w. h portable
property. Now and then a well known face
wouid be recognized by the det. .'live?, and the
thief arrested. 1 heee*were isoiated ca- .-s. how
ever, and the value of the plunder secured by
this depredatory class must have been enor
mous. It Is uiiutXilu) J that a thorough and
strict search will here*iter be instituted, in order
that some portions of the plunder m.ty be re
covered.
The ladles, in many cases, were bewildered
by the noise and bustle around them, rather
than by cowardly fear, or even by natural
timidity, and did some thing" that provoked
laughter in spite of tbe awful character of the
situation. One went about with a pnekage of
hiee in one hand and a lisle thread stocking in
the other, entreating the workers to help net
save her property, which she powerless to
designate. Another threw out largo superb
mirrors lrom the third story, ami care: ally low
ered a china Jug by a rope. Home shivered in
silence on the stone steps, hugging their bal?e*
to their breasts, and one an-wered to a gentle
man who wanted to save her property: " Lot it
burn, sir. I've saved my baby, and my husbaud
is all right in New York."
ARIA or THK PIRE.
At 4 o'clock in the morning the area of the
fire was somethirg pitiable. It exten led from
Washington street on the west to the wharves
on the east, and Milk street on the uorth to the
Hartford and Erie bridge on the south. It hal
destroyed the follow ing streets: Suruner. Frank
lin, Otis, Devonshire, from Milk street to Win
tlirop square, the south side of M:lk street,
I'tarl, High, parts of Hroad, Oliver, Bodiord,
Cbancey, Hawley, Arch, Federal, Purchase,

presented a sc< ne of desolation not unlike that
of a captured city in the possession of a hostile
army. The beat of tin- drum is heard in 'he
streets, and a soldier, with gun in hand, keeps
guard by the ropes which surround the s^ene ot
devastation. Women and children throng the
streets. On the sidewalks, in yariis. in the cor
ridors of the hotels, in the j?oiice stations, ami
even in grave yards, are piles on piles of varia
ble merchandise, snatched 1'runi the burning
buildings. Boston never saw a brighter, fairer
and a more soirowtul Sabbath thau that on
which the sun hasjust set.
THK RLRRSP P1ATBKT AKT> TH2 LO.*<?.
The region covered by the tire was entirelv
within wards tive and four, including atmut
one-halfot"the territory ot tbe former, and two
or three acres oi the latter, space in all very
neany the same as that occupied by ward three.
"The area of the burnt district will !>e foun t

vertiser, "slightly to exceed sixty-four acres, or
2,7*7.&4:? square feet. Deducting the space
covered by streets, the area occupied by build

The structures did not cover all the remaining
space; but assuming that they did, and they
were worth $ 10 per square foot, the entire lo? in

may roughly be stated at al-out 7<x>. The low

that in a number of streets the structures were

but by no means one to Inflict a crushing b!'>w

Losdoi, Not. 12?All tbe London morning
papers express tbe deepest sympathy foe tho
cutlerers bv tbe conflagration In Boston. They
attiibnte the great disaster to tbe bad manage
ment ot tbe fire department, foliOe and muni
cipal authorities ot that city. Tbe Siamdrnrd
-ays Tbe Boston Ire is a scandalous outrage
on ciTllixation, and evidence of a most ineffi
cient city government. By war of Mowing
-uperioritv in eesee like tbat of tbe Boston lire
of a small, well-organised Are department over
a large, but badly-managed one, It compares
tbe smal! London fire brigade and tbe narrow,
crooked streets and alloys of this city, where
lire* seldom get beyoid tbe buildings wherein
they originate, to the thousands of undisciplined
Bremen, Luge granite structures, and open
places in Boston. There, It says, tbe
best portion of tbe city was destroyed for
' want of good management to prevent the
progress or tbe flames, which were InallT
?topped by gunpowder, and tbis wretched busi
ikss was entrusted to volunteer citisens instead
ot skilled operators.
