CHICAGO ON FIRE!
An Area of 70O
Acres Completely
Devastated.
The Court House, the Water Works,
the Principal Hotels, ami the
Uest business Blocks in
the City Entirely
Destroyed.
Thousands of Families
Ilcmlcrcd Destitute.

Suspended.
From tho Chicago Newspaper Union, Kxtrii, Oi t.
Chicago seems doomed by the fire
tiend. On Saturday afternoon, Sept.
oOth, a conflagration visited that city in
the shape of the destruction of a bonded
warehouse and property to the amount
of about SS00,()i0. During the week
following several minor files took place
in the city, the engines and firemen re
maining in their houses scarcely three
hours at a time without a call, and on
Saturday evening, Oct. 7th, about 11
o'clock, while engaged in extinguishing
a lire on Wells street, South Side, an
alarm was sounded from box No. lM!S,
West Division. This alarm, it was as
certained, was occasioned by the dis
covery of fire in the boiler room of the
planing mill of Lull k Holmes, situated
on Canal street, between Jackson and
Van Lmren. All the engines not en
gaged at the Wells street fire immediately
repaired to the scene of destruction in
t hvi West Division, but before they got
into operation the building in which the
fire originated was enveloped in flames.
The absence of rain for the past three
or four weeks, has rendered everything
so dry and inllammable in Chicago, as
well as elsewhere throughout the West,
that a spark will start a fire will
sweep for miles without interruption.
Only a few minutes after the striking
of the alarm, flames were seen sweeping
to the sky, and the lurid light that il
luminated the horizon grew more ami
more powerful, casting its brilliant rays
in every direction, bringing out in bold
relief the fronts of the buildings which
faced the burning element. The wind,
which was blowing very strong from the
southwest, carried with it sparks, cin
ders and partially burned pieces of
wood, which covered the sky in daz
zling spangle.?, and fell in fiery" showers
upon the buildings lying noith and
northeast of the burning mill. Thee
soon ignited, and, at one o'clock were
one mass of llameor charred ruins. I'y
this time every engine in the city, and
those belonging at Uridgeport and Plue
Islaml, were at work trying to arrest the
progress of the devouring element.
This, however, was not done until nearly
a fifth block was destroyed.
The boundaries of the conflagration
were as follows: Between Clinton and
Canal streets, about three-fourths of
the area south toward Van Buren street.
Between Canal street and the river,
about nine-tenths of the area south
toward Van Buren street. Between
('anal street and the river, and Adams
and Jackson streets, the entire area.
Between Canal and Clinton streets, and
Adams and Jackson streets, about
seven eighths of the entire area. On
the east side of Canal, north of Adams,
about one. hundred feet frontage, this
being tlio freight sheds of theAdams
and United States Express Companies.
As marly as can be estimated,
the total area burned over covers about
twenty acres, which is by far the largest
district ever devastated by lire in Chi
cago, even eclipsing the famous confla
gration of lS.VT.
On Jackson street, aside from the
planing mill above mentioned, and the
lumber yard connected with it, the
property consumed consisted of dwell
ings, barns and outhouses, which were
all old and dry as tinder. Clinton street
north of Jackson was alo covered with
dwellings and a few small carpenter
shops. On Canal street in tho rear of
the planing mill was a box factory of
Mr. Foster which was destroyed.
Among the most prominent sufferers
on the eat side of Canal street, next
the river were the Union wagon works
Chapin k Foss, manufacturers of lath
and shingles, John Sheriffs k Son, lum
ber dealers B. Holbrook, coal dealer;
W. K, Johnson, coal dealer; and the
blacksmith shops of the Pittsburgh and
Ft. Wayne II. i. Co. The. majority of
the sufferers on Adams street between
Canal and Clinton were families who
oi nearly all they had. The Adams
street viaduct win wrapped in Haines and
damaged to the amount of about 1,000.
The losses in the above fire cannot bo
less than a million dollars.
the wnsT si nr..
hast night about nine o'clock a fire
broke out in a bam on the corner of
Iwelfth and Ie Koven streets, occa
sioned by a cow kicking over a lamp.
An alarm was quickly sounded, but the
high wind prevailing at the time; caused
tho budding to burn and the fire to
spread rapidly, and before the engines
reached the ground several buildin-'s
were in flames and the firemen were
forced to give way to the devouring ele
ment. ITS COURSE.
The fire spread rapidly in an easterly
and noilheasterly direction, devouring
everything in its track, ami soon tho
two blocks from Jefferson to Clinton
and from Clinton to Canal, were envel
oped in one sheet of flame. Crossing
Canal street, the fire crept steadily
along tho river, forcing everying of an
inllammable nature to succumb. Ves
sels and canal boats were forced to cut
loose, and lloat away as fast as they
could, to prevent being burned. Stead
ily forcing the firemen to retreat, the
fire made its way northward betweet Jef
ferson and Clinton streets, to VanBuren
street, where it ceased, between those
streets, but kept on burning between
Clinton and Canal streets, ami from
Canal street to the river. At Van Buren
street the fire crossed and burned what
was left in that vicinity by the fire of
Saturday night. Everything on tho
river front, from Taylor street to Adams
street, was burned. Among the most
prominent buildings along thatfcide of
the river were the Chicago Dock Com
pany, tho St. Louis and Alton freight
depot, a large planing mill and sash
factory. The National Elevator, which
stood the test of fire all night, finally
caught from the intense heat, ami
about three o'clock on Sunday morning
the building was one sheet of Manic,
making one of the grandest spectacles
witnessed during the fire. The Adams
street bridge, which stood the fire of
Saturday night well, took fire about 12
o'clock on Sunday night, and was
hm tied to the water's edge while stand
ing open.
THE 30UTH SIDE.
About twelve o'clock tho fire spread
across the river in tho neighborhood of
Taylor street, and swept everything in
its path. The Gas Works were soon
consumed, and from thence north and
east the fiery element Mew along with
unabated fury, taking everything in its
course.
THE HOTELS.
All the prominent Hotels of the city
are in ruins The Pacific, Sherman,
Tremont, Briggs, Palmer, Bigelow,
Metropolitan, Matteon, besides doz
ens ot other smaller caravanseries scat
tered over the East Side from the river
to the lake, and from Van Buren to
Water st. Tho destruction of property
is most terrible, and the scenes to bo
witnessed in the streets are
heartrending. Business, of course
is entirely suspended, ami everything
on wheels which can be made avilable
for purposes of moving, are pressed into
service for getting goods out of the
reach of the devouring element. Wa
badi and Michigan avenue, as far
south as Twenty-second street, arelined
with household goods and mer
chandise, and guarded by weary
and weeping women ami children.
Thousands of families are already ren
dered homeless, and at this hour (1)
a. in.) the fire is rapidly extending
southward from Lake street on tin? east
side of State street, and it seems more
than probable that the entire district
north of Van Buren and east of Clark
streets will be destroyed.
THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
building, which stood the heat for a
long time, came in for its place among
the li.-t of sufferers, and soon after the
fall of the Court House this handsome
building lay a mass of smoldering coals.
THE WESTERN UNION TE I.Eli RA I'll OFFICE
building was destroyed, as was also the
whole block adjoining on the north and
we.-t of the same.
PRINTING OFFICES DESTROYED.
All of the daily paper ollices are closed.
The Journal, Post, Iiepublic-an atul Times
are among those destroved. The Tii-
bune building, being fire proof, stood
the siege well, and will probably make
its appearance as usual to-morrow. 1 he
S'aats Zr'duwf (German, and lvpln
fiJ, which were in the same budding
with the Keening Pont, suffered the fate
of their neighbor. The Auxiliary Print
ing House of A. X. Kellogg, together
with Spalding k Lemont's job otliee,
are in ruins. The job ollices of Hand k
McXally, Cameron, Amberg A' Hoff
man, Beach A- Barnard, Hounds k
Ki ne, Culver, Page k Hoyne, Jameson
A- Morse, and all ot the prominent job
ollices of the city are gone.
THE COURT MOUSE
took fire about one o'clock, ami at half-pa.-t
two the old Court House proper
was enveloped in flames, the tall steeple
falling about .1 o'clock. The spire came
down with a crash, which increased the
fury of tin; flames and created an in
Miffcrable heat for a great distance on
all sides of the square.
THE POST OFFICE,
after stemming the tide for hours, was
force I to surrender to the flames, and
about five o'clock on Monday morning
it was completely 44 gutted'' by fire. All
the buildings adjacent to and in the vi
cinity of the Post Ollice are in ruins.
THE NORTH SIDE.
The fire has crossed the river to the
Xorth Side, and is devouring every
thing in its track, the fire engines being
powerless, the Water Works being de
stroyed and the city left without water.
The city is at the mercy of the Mamcs,
and all attempts to suppress them arc
fruitless.
It is'known that several deaths have
occurred, through various accidents
and from the Maines, but owing to the
indescribable confusion which reigns
everywhere it is impossible to arrive
with any degree of accuracy at the par
ticulars. At five o'clock p. m., the fire was still
raging in the Xorth Division and had
reached as far as Chicago avenue,
sweeping away everything in its course.
To give a slight idea of how things
look, we can only say that the city from
Harrison street on the South Side to
the city limits on the North Side, and
lying between the river ami lake east
and west, is but one mass of ruins.
This comprises a tract varying from a
mile to two miles in width, and over
five miles long. To this must be added
a large tract burned on the West Side,
which will make the fire the greatest
and most destructive ever known on
this continent.
From tin (.'hh-sgo Ti ibr.ne, Oct. II.
ST I I.I. EATER.
As early as three o'clock in the morn
ing of Monday, the pcopleonthe Xorth
Side, or many of them, began to get a
little nervous. The fire, moving north
eastward, had gotten to Bush street
bridge, which was crowded with people.
In order to prevent this aiding
the fire in crossing, it was turned,
but the only result was the
DESTRUCTION OF THE PEOPLE UPON IT.
The lire crossed there, without pay
ing any attention to the removal of tlio
bridge, and seizing upon the frame
buildings, the warehouses, and the lum
ber yards, moved rapidly northward to
ward the Water Work-. The people
living in that section, and north of
there, thought that tho best place for
them to seek shelter was on the lake
shore, and they rushed that way, carry
ing with them what they could. They
very soon found that they were there
between two deaths, tho fire on one
side of them, ard the water on the oth
er, into which the intenso heat of the
fire was driving them. Many lay
there, half in the water and half in the
sand, with their heads down in order
order to get as much air as they could.
The smoke driving from the shore
made it almost impossible to live, but,
as they were surrounded on three sides,
and there were no boats, they remained
where they were, and suffered as pa
tiently as possible.
THE FIRE REACHED THE WATER WORKS
at an early hour, and the wooden roof
was soon in a Maine. The men stayed
there as long as they could, but were
compelled to retreat ami made their
escape along the lake shore.
According to the statement of the
Librarian, Win. Corkran, who was
thereat the time, the following persons
certainly sought refuge in the Chicago
Historical Society Building: Oid Col.
Stone and his wife, Mr. ami Mrs. Able
and their daughters, Mrs. De Pelgrotn,
teacher of French, Mr. and Mrs Car
penter, musical people, Dr. Freer and
familv, two patients from the hospital
in Mr. Richards' place, and John B.
Girard and family. Mr. Corkran is cer
tain that old Col. Stone suffocated, and,
from the sudden inrush of dense smoke,
there is cause for the fear that nearly
all the others who were in there shared
the same fate, bewildered by the Mamcs,
and unable to find their way out of the
building, with which they were un
acquainted. AT CHICAGO AVENUE.
It was 10 o'clock when the lire got to
Chicago avenue. The incredible rapidi
ty of the Mames passed all comprehen
sion. They sprang from side to side of
the street, and, skipping extensive
tracts, returned to complete their work.
It is reported, but not on the best
authority, that fifteen men were lost at
a blacksmith's shop on Kudi street. All
these fires, at whatever point they
crossed the river, soon united, and
swept on unobstructedly northward.
The people living north of Chicago
avenue and west of La Salle street,
were exceedingly hopeful that they
would escape, but the Mames, running
up Clark street, and catching Turner
Hall and the new building north of it,
worked west, and got into the brick
blocks on the east side of LaSalle, and
then jumped that street and got into
the blocks on the west side. At about
the same time it ciossed Chicago
avenue and caught McEwen's pltmii g
mill, on Wells, near Pearson, and then
rushed on northward among the wooden
buildings situated there, blowing them
down almost before they were on fire.
WHAT REMAINS.
From Kinzie street to Fullerton ave
nue is three miles. At Chicago avenue,
the Xorth Division is a little over a mile
wide, and is still wider further north,
until at Fullerton avenue, it is nearly
two miles wide. This vast extent of
territory is nearly as desolate and empty
as it was 50 years ago. The only houses
remaining are the old Iowa elevator,
which fronts on the basin at the junc
tion of the branches, and some of the
low and insignificant frames on Kinzie,
down in that quarter. The width of
the river at that point, and the direc
tion of the wind saved them. The
tower at the Water Woik remains, as
do the walls of the main building, but
it is minus a roof. A few houses were
also left on Division street, near the riv
er, and one block on Sophia street, near
the park. All the rest has disappeaied.
The double engine at the Water
Works is not seriously injured in itself,
but the foundations are in such condi
tion as to render running it dangerous.
The smaller single engine will require
extensive repairs. The larger single
engine is apparently uninjured. Wheth
er any of the engines can run depends
upon the cylinders, which may have
been sufficiently heated to put them
out of true.
The only buildings in the South Di
vision north of Harrison street are the
Avenue House, on Michigan avenue,
Lind's block, corner of Market and
Randolph streets, and two or three
houses adjoining the Avenue House.
INCENDIARIES KILLED.
The damnably depraved character of
some of the rullians of the city was per
fectly illustrated on Monday and Tues
day nights, by attempts made to pro
mote pillage by fires set by incendiaries
in difierent parts of the city. To the
credit of the inhabitants of the city, be
it said, the villains generally met with
the fate they deserved. The following
are some illustrations, rumored and
authentic:
A man, name unknown, was shot by
a negro at the corner of State and Thirty-second
streets. His olfense was that
he set fire to a building to obtain better
opportunities for pillage.
A woman was arrested for setting fire
to a barn in the rear of a house on
Burnsidc street. By some mistaken
idea of clemency she was not hanged.
Two men, who were caught trying to
set fire to the Jesuit Church, on the
West Side, now sleep in the valley.'
About noon yesterday, k barn in the
rear of a house on Burnside street, near
Twentieth, was observed to be on fire.
Knowing it mut have been the work
of an incendiary, the neighbors united
to extinguish it, filling everything they
could get hold of with sand. The fire
was extinguished and tho incendiary
caught. It is stated that he was shot.
At about 1 1 o'clock yesterday fore
noon a man redding on Fourth avenue
caught a man in the basement of his
house, equipped with hay and matches.
He gave the alarm, and the incendiary
was caught and stoned and battered to
death.
About 1 o'clock ycsterelay afternoon
a colored man, name unknown, ob
serve! a white man sneaking around
his house on Fourth avenue. He fired
the barn in the rear of the house, and
was instantly shot elead.
LOSS OF LIFE.
More than two hundred men, women
and children are missing, and it is
feared the great majority have perished.
ASSISTANCE.
Trains lo.idcd with provisions from
all parts of the country are almost
hourly arriving, and large subscrip
tions in money have been received from
Cincinnati, St Louis, Milwaukee, De
troit and other places.
Gen. Sheridan has made requisitions
for 150,000 rations, and it is stated that
he has ordered 1,00 tents for tho use
of the houseless.
Tho churches and remaining public
buildings have been thrown open, anel
but comparatively few are without shel
ter of some kind.
Most of the railroads leading out of
the city have authorized the Belief
Committee's to issue unlimited orders
for passes to the destitute who wish to
leave the city, anel thousands are gladly
availing themselvtvs of the opportunity.
TROOPS FOR PROTECTION.
Lieut. Gen. Sheridan has telegraphed
to Omaha and tho military stations in
that section of country for 1,000 United
States troops, to be sent to Chicago at
once by special trains. These tioops
are expected to reach Chicago to-day,
and will bo distributed throughout the
remaining residence and business por
tions of the city as a protection against
incendiarism, robbery, pillage, etc. It
is not improbable that the city will be
phiced under martial law.

From tho London Times.
A correspondent furnishes us with the
following account of an incident whiedi
has just occurred in a garrison town on
the banks of the I'hine. On a certain
lay a party of (Herman ollicers were
dining together, when a disputesaid
to be about a lady aroe between two
of them. Words linally ran so high that
both declared they could only be satis
tied with bloodshed, and. as dueling is
not allowed, they adopted another hor
rible means of ending their quarrel. It
was agreed that they should stake their
lives on a throw of the dice, and which
ever threw the lowest number was
bound by his word of honor to blow his
own brains out. The unlucky number
was thrown by a brave young ollicer
who had gone through the late cam
paign with distinction and had been re
warded with the Iron Cross. lie at
once prepared for his fate by writing a
letter to his Colonel, who hapiened to
be absent, and by making his will, and
then, the very same evening, fulfilled
his melancholy promise. His death and
the military funeral he was given cre
ated a little excitement in the town, but
apparently the feeling uppermost in the
minds of the inhabitants was that ex
pressed by the landlord of the hotel,
who said to me, It was a very funny
duel." The other actor in the tragedy
discu-sed the event quite calmly the
next day at the iolfc i hotc.

Caution! Caution II Caution!!!
Unprincipled men are endeavoring,
in different parts of the country, to
palm otr upon the unwary an imitation
of Dr. Sago's Catarrh Kemedy, under a
similar sounding yet not identical name.
Kemember tho genuine is called lr.
Sago's Catarrh KKMKDY" and not I r.
Sage's Catarrh Cure," Dr. Sage Ca
tarrh Heliever," or some other similar
sounding name. Alo bear in mind that
the genuine lias uio worus it.

easy inatter to distinguish the genuine
from the spurious.
Who has not heard of Moore's Rural
New-Yorker, whose twenty years of
succcsa and of usefulness have taught
our people tho important facts of Agri
culture and their kindred sciences, and
created departments for the naturalist,
the herdsman, tho gardner, the dairy
man, and others. Jiut this is not all.
The farmer has found it a paper for his
family, full of instruction and interest,
and giving varied information in litera
ture and the arts. Its moral tone is of
the highest, anel its domestic depart
ment such as the farmer's wife linds
most useful. The issue for 1872 will ap
pear in a more convenient form, both
tor reading and binding, though it will
still be larger than Harper's Weekly.
The price, however, (as will be seen by
the advertisement in another column,)
is reduced to $2.50 per year, and only
$2.00 to clubs. This must still more
largely increase the popularity of a
journal already in advance of all others
in its sphere.
Nf.u Loom. We notice in the Dally
8p)h published at Worcester, Mass., an
account of a loom inve nted by Dr. II. G.
Davis, of that city The principle of
Dr. Davis's invention is that he has in
troduced between the lathe and the
crank, an attachment to the arm, by
which he secures a dwell of the lathe
while the shuttle is crossing, thereby
enabling tho loom to work with a crank
of but little more than half the usual
length. Jiy this mechanical contriv
ance the inventor claims a speed of
225 or more revolutions per minute, in
stead of 140, the former speed."
A Great Feat. A piece of glass,
measuring 100 superficial feet, recently
underwent the process of silvering at
the works of Messrs. Pratt Co.,
Peasely Cross, St. Helen's. Lancashire,
Knglanel. This is saiel to be the largest
mirror ever turned out of any establish
ment in Lancashire, and, with one or
two exceptions, the largest ever elone in
Kngland. The silvering was accom
plished by the new process, by which
the mirror is completeel in forty hours,
instead of occupying ten days.
Plain Questions for Invalids. Have
the routine medicines of the profession
done you no good? Are you discour
aged anel miserable? If so, test the
properties of the new Vegetable Specific,
Dk. Walker's California Vinegar Hit
ters, already famous as the finest in
vigorant, corrective anel alterative, that
has ever seen the light. Dyspeptics and
persons of bilious habit should keep it
within reach, if they value health and
ease.
In an address just delivereel before
the Farmers' Ciub, at Princeton, Mass.,
by Dr. Xathan Allen, he said that in
1.S10, when the population of that town
was 1,1147, "the number ot children
between the ages of f and 15, was twice
the number in 1S70, when the popula
tion was 1,379." For the last ten years,
one-seventh of all the births in this
town have been in families of foreigners,
though the population of this kind does
not exceed one hundreel in number.
Omaha Legal Lottery. In aid of a
Public Library at Omaha, Nebraska. At a
meeting of citizens of Oraaha, held Sept. 19,
it was voted to make the Drawing on Oct. 31
positively. There are .$100,000 in Cash
Prizes. Tickets $2 each, or three for $5. A
vote of thanks was tendered Messrs. J.
Lyfonl A- Co., Business Managers, at Omaha,
Nebraska.
Many valuable horses die from the
effects of colic. The best thing to do in a
case of this kind, is to pour a bo tie of
Johnson's Anodyne Liniment into a long
necked junk bottle, add half pint of mo
lasses and water, thou pour the whole down
the horse's throat. In ten minutes the horse
will begin to eat.
CiiAri'ED hands, face, rough skin,
pimples, ringworm, salt-rheum, and ether
cutaneous allections, cured, and the skin
made soft and smooth, by using the Juniprit
Tar Soap, made by Caswkll, Hazard k Co.,
New i'ork. It is more convenient and
easily applied than other remedies, avoiding
tho trouble of the greasy compounds now in
use.

Slnco the exposure of the attempts ina.Ie certain
unscrupulous loral tUnlors. to palm ofT their coarse
ntrirKentA, maJf from cheap Rinl impure materials,
in tho place of tlio ereat national tonic, Hostetter'a
Stomach Hitters, pnUic opinion has set strongly
nsainst these empirics and their preparations. Their
occupation is ijone, or soon will Le. When tho light
is let into deception it soon wilts down. Persons who
trifle with their own health, l.y usintr unknown rrep.
arations, with no guarantee to sustain them, when
an cstahMsliotl specific, rrort-n by twenty years' ex
perience to bu exactly what it Is claimed to he, is
witliin their reach, are sure to repent their temerity.
Many have done in tliis instance, hut it is hoped
that the truth pl iinly spoken has arrested the evil.
In tho meantime the demand for ttie leading rrotec
tlve and restorative medicine of America was nerer so
great as it has heen this season. From the fever and
aifuedi-trictsof the west, southwest, and somh. it is
literally overwhelming, and it ray be said of the ad
vices from all parts of the country of the cures it is f
fvcting in dyspepsia, bilious complaints, and chronic
constipation, that "their name is legion." Every
where the sick and feeble seem to have realized the
Importance of" holding fast that which is Kood." and
of avoiding what is ipurions and dangerous.
