CuiCAdo, Oct. I). Tho most terrible
conllngrotlon that ever occurred In tho
United States lias been In progress
lu tills city for nearly 21 hours,
laying tho wholo business portion of
tho city nnd ono Iirih of all tho build'
lugs In nshes.
Tho firo broke out last evening, be
tween 0 nnd 10 o'clock, In a barn In
West Taylor street, and owing to tho
Inflammable nature of Its contents, tho
building was wrapped In ilames before
tho firemen arrived. From this liiBig
ulficaut source sprang this terrlblo ca
lamlty.
Tho portion of tho city wliero tho Ilio
originated was built up nlmojt entirely
of wooden buildings, closely packed to-
golhcr, tenanted by carpenters, cabinet-
makers, coopers, varnish uianuf.icttir
ers, Interspersed with lumber yard nnd
stores of othci equally lnllimmablu
materials. The wind was blowing n
terrlblo galo and tho dovouilng element
spread so rapidly that till uttcmps to
stny Its ravages proved fruitless.
Tho firo soon reached Clark Sired,
upon which tho greater portion of tho
ilno buslucas blocks wero situated, till of
which aro destroyed. Tho Court llou
which was 20 years In building, was
swept nway In 30 minutes. Tho Sher
man House, oppoillu tho Court House,
tho new Pacific Hotel, which was soon
to bo opened, and said to bo tho largest
lu tho world ; nnd, indeed, every hotel
In tho city Is swallowed up In the sea oi
lire. When tho flro reached Stato Street
toward tho lake, an attempt was mado
to stay Its progress by blowing up tho
buildings In the vicinity of Field, Dsb
tcrs & Co.'s m.ignlflceut dry goods cs
tabllsluncnt, but this only teemed to
add to tho fury of tho Ilames. ! rom
Stato Street tho flro advanced With un
abated fury to tho North Division, nnd
scarcely n vcstlgo of tho 8,000 buildings
on that sido of tho river Is left. Taking
a south-easterly direction, the firo swept
through Madison nvonuo and Mouroo
Street, extending n tllstanco of about
ono mllo nnd n quarter, dovourlng In
Itsndvanco The Tribune building, Cros
by's Opera-House, McVlckcr's Thoater,
and hundreds of tho finest business
houses In tho city. West of tho Court
House, embracing Lasallc, Wolls, nnd
South Water Streets, upon which a
very largo portion of tho business was
concentrated, everything Is swept clean.
Tho spaco burnt over covers nn nrca of
moro than fivo square miles, while the
valuo of tho property destroyed Is sim
ply to bo conjectured, somo placing it
at $100,000,000, and others oven more
than this.
It was about 1 o'clock thl3 morning
when tho firo crojsed tho river nt Ad
ams Street brldgo and soon destroyed
tho gas works, and then spread Itself fn
ovcry direction. Moro than one-half
tho population aro now pushing through
tho streets in vehicles which aro obtain-
0vctfy-"6WoP " wttf-'n's iflP file'-A'J'.lJJl
household treasures in their nrms and
on their backs in utter confusion, not
knowing whither to go. Fearful sull'cr-
ing mtist follow, and nlmort Immedi
ately. Full 100,000 pcoplo nro nt this
moment homeless and houseless, not
knowing where to lay their heads or
get anything to satisfy tho cravings of
hunger.
At noon, tho whole business portion
of the city from Harrison Street north
to Chicago avenue, and cait of tho river
to Lnko avenue, was devastated, em
bracing a district three miles in length
to a mllo or a mllo and n half In width.
Tlio ilames swept through tho city with
the rapidity of n prairio fire, nnd many
persons must havo perished.
At this hour(G p, m.) tho nwful work
of destruction still goes on with relent
less fury. From Harrison Street in tho
south to Division Street in tho north,
and from tho river to tlio lake, nn area
of four miles long by ono mllo wide,
the Ilames havo swept everything be
fore them.
Tho streets In tho districts still tin
burned nro lined for miles with such
household goods as havo been saved
from destruction. Most generous offers
of nsshtnnco lu money, food, or any
thing wanted aro coming in from al
most every city ahd town throughout
tlio country by telegraph. Tho Mayor
has responded to several offers, asking
that cooked food bo provitled ns soon as
possible Firemen aro on their way
hero from Cincinnati, St. Louis, and
other cities. Tho water works nro en
tirely destroyed. Buildings aro now
being blown up on tho lino of tho firo
to nttempt to arrest its progress.
It Is believed that tho spread of tho
flro southward will soon bo stayed at
Harrison Street; but on tho north sido
there Is no diminution of Its fury, nnd
tho cntlro division of tho city Is evi
dently doomed to utter destruction.
There nro gravo fears that thoflamo3
may spread to tho west sido of tho north
branch of tho river, and tlio Inhabitants
of tho streets nearost tho river aro nl-
reatly moving to places, It Is supposed,
of greater safety. Tho Western Union
Telegraph Company havo now six
wires, working cast and south, running
Into n temporarv ofllco nt tho corner of
Gtato and Sixteenth Streets. Tho North
Western Railroad Company nro run
ning trains on both Its branches, which
nro crowded with ilcolng citizens. It
is now positively nssorted by somo that
tho water-works aro still Intact, but tho
water has been tihut off from tho South
and West Divisions, on uccount of tho
quantity being used on tho north sido.
A trustworthy gentleman, Just arrived
from tho North Division, brings tho
Joyful intelligence that tho wator-works
aro uninjured. God grant that It may
provo truo 1
It Is ImposslDlo nowtoglvo ovonan
approximately correct statement of tho
losses, but a faint Idea may bo formed
when It is stated that every bank In tlio
city except two small savings Instltu
Hons, one on Twcnty-sccond street lu
South Division, and ono on Randolph
street In West Division, Is destroyed.
All wholesale stores, nil retail establish
mont, tho Postolllco, tho Court House,
tho Chamber of Commorco, ovory hotel
In South Division except Michlgnn nv
onuo Hotel, which, standing on tho ox
tremo southorn limit, escaped, tlioutrh
It Is badly scorched, cvory nowspaper
oillco (The ilrlbune building which was
supposed to ho ilro-proof luwlng finally
succumbed), ovcry theatre, tho slxlnrg-j
est clovator , the Immense depots of the
MichlgaM Southern nnd of the Illinois
Central Railroads (both tho passenger
nnd freight depots of Mm Utter), more
than n score of churches, aim much or
tho shipping In tho rlvcr-all nro de
stroyed.
Mon who wero mlllloii iircayestortiay
morning, nro nearly penniless lo-tlayi
but moro terrlblo than nil Is tho nwful
certainty that many human beings hnve
perished In tho Ilames how ninny, no
ono can loll. Perhaps no ono will over
boabloto tell) but It is known tint
somo havo perished, and there is only
n hoart-slckenlng fear that tho victim
ofthu fiery monster nny bo counted by
scoses.
Hundreds of horses nnd cows have
been burned In stables, nnd on tho north
sido numbers of animals, though re
leased from confinement, wero so be
wildered nnd confused by tho seaof flru
which surrounedlhcm that thoy rushed
wildly to and fro, uttering cries of
flight und pain until scorched nnd
killed.
Any attempt at n description of the
scenes of this appalling calamity would
bu Idle. The simplo fact that tho once
great City of Chicago Is nearly destroy
ed, that hundreds of millions of neltvo
capital hero havo vanished, nml that
ncnly ono thlrd of Chicago's Inhabit
ants nro houseles-i, is enough. Any at
tempt to embellish would bo mockery.
As this nwful day draws to n close
thousands of anxious eves watch the
clouds of smoke, which still roll over
tho burned district, with evident dread
that a sudden change of wind may ttini
tho flames upon that portion of tho clly
yet spaad. There seem, however, lit
tlo cause for apprehension, nnd recn
forceinouts of firemen from other cities
tiro conslnutly arriving. Col. F. F.
Wilson, Superintendent of tho Tele
graph, as In riveipt of dispatches from
leading cities announcing that nld will
soou bo provided fjr the sufferers. Col.
Clowry of St. Louis telegraphs that $70,
000 havo been subscribed by tho mer
chants there- Cincinnati promKcs $200,
and Cloveland Is proportionately gen
crous. All this and a great deal moro
will bo needed to relievo tho Innnedl-
nto pressing wants.
Everything Is doing by Gen. Stager
nud his assistants to keep tip comnitiul
cations for tho citizens nnd press witli
the world outside. Col. Geo. T.Will
lams, Superintendent nt Cincinnati
reported promptly for duty this moni'
ing. About thrco-fourlhs of tho United
States mall was saved nud taken charge
of by Col. Wood of tho Postolllco scr
vice.
Later. Tho flames of the South DI
vision were finally nrrcstcd by blowing
up nud demolishing sovcral buildings
on Wabashnvcnuo and Congress street,
by Llculenant-Gencrnl Sheridan. Tlio
District burned over In tho South 1)1
vision embraces everything from tho
main branch of tlio Chicago River to
tho Lake, nnd covering nbottt ono hun
drcd blocks. This district contained
all the leading business homes, tho
banks, Insuranco olllces, hotels, &q.
also n largo number of churches, Includ
ing St. Mary's, Trinity, First Presby
terian, Second Presbyterian, St. Paul,
Swedcnborglan, Ac. Tho Methodist
Church, on tho corner of Wabash nv-
of Michigan nveiuioand Congress street,
and tho Congress Hall, directly adjoin

MIchigau-lerraco, on Michigan avenue,
embracing tho rcsldenco of Gov. Bross,
tho Hon. John Young Seammon, S. C.
Griggs, Peter L. Ross, and .other lead
ing citizen, is completely destroyed.
All tho newspaper establishments nro
totally wiped out. The Tribune build
ing resisted tho firo for several hours,
but finally yielded, when M'Vlekcr's
Theater, immediately adjoining, which
also withstood tho raging clement,
wholly succumbed. In fact all tho
buildings In tho district which claimed
to bo fire-proof shared tho samo fato of
thoso which could mnkono such claims.
Tho great Central depot nt tho foot of
Lako street, becamo n heap of ruins.
About 9 o'clock this morning most of
tho passenger cars of tho Mishlgan Cen
tral, Burlington and Quincy, and 111!
nols Central Railroad wero moved on
tho breakwater and saved. West of
Clark street, in tho southorn division,
tho flro extended south as lar as Polk
street, sweeping everything bsforo It.
Tho distance burr.ed over hero is somo
thrco blocks wide and uver half a mllo
In length, numbering ab mt 20 blocks.
Tho building!) wuro generally of tho
cheaper character, embraciug i.ilnon
small shops, poor residences, etc. Tho
district burned over on the west Ido
commences nt Taylor street, running
from Da ICnrcn to Jefferson. Tho flro
ran thenco four or 11 vo blocks north, and
then moved diagonally toward tho
river, and, finally, tho wc3t limit was
established on Clinton street, and reach
ing thenco to tho river. It moved In
this lino northward until it reached tho
North Western and West Sido depots,
where It stopped, n tllstanco of nearly
two miles from where it started. Tho
Pittsburgh, Fort Wayno nnd Chicago
and Chicago and St. Louis Railroad,
depots wero In this district, and aro de
stroyed. AImo3ttho entire Noithern Division,
from tho main branch of tho Chicago
River to Lincoln Park, nearly two miles
lu length and ono mllo In width, Is com
pletely destroyed, Including the water
works, u large number of elegant
churches, Ac. This district embraces
almost tho entire business portion or tho
clly.
Tho territory south of Harrison street
In tho south division, reaching out
many miles, and covered almost entire
ly with dwolllngs, mostly of tho belter
class, is untouched, nnd may not bo ro
gnrdctl ns safe from Injury.
For miles nnd miles, In every direc
tion, tho sldownlks, lnwns, vacant lots,
and front yards of dwellings, aro filled
with people who havo escaped from
burning houses, taking with thorn only
a scanty amount or furniture nndcloth
Ing. Tho sight Is truly a harrowing ono.
Theso pcoplo must recolvo immedlato
relief, or many will perish from expos
ure and stnrvntlon.
As already stated, It Is utteily Imposs
ible to maku nn approximate cstlmalo
of tho entire loss, but It can scarcely
fall below $150,000,000. Of course, but
a fraction of this amount can bo recov
ered from Insuranco.
Gen. Sheridan has to-day telegraphed
to St. Louis, to tho Missouri depot there
to send at onco 100,000 rations. Ho has
nlso telegraphed to Omaha foa two com
panies of soldiers and 100 tents. Ho will
also order another 100,000 rations.

earnest support of Iho candidates of the
political organization to which ono be
longs. Without thorough organization
ami inmost eiiori on tno part tit null
viduut members oi such organization
no titniv can bono to Miccool. Such
fidelity ns was illustrated by tho noblo
Roman trturd who stood nt his post nt
Pompeii when tho molten Hood of Ve
suvius rolled down ami overwhelmed
all who tlid not Ike, before It, and who
after eighteen centuries had elapsed
was taken from the ruins, still standing
in his martial position, u stntuo of de

tho Kind of fidelity to bo admired In
tho Democrat who never swerves from
duty but isat all times nnd'under all
circumstances found stnudlng squarely
up for his party's nominees, battling
for tho cause of truth and civil liberty ;
always to bo relied on, nnd never found
nbscnt or wanting when his services nro
needed.
But nil parties havo their chronic

with any ticket, nnd who seem to tnko
special pleasure in uniting lnuit, wini

of candidates. To sallsly them would
bo an litter impossibility.
This class of voters tako dellsht In
annoying candidates and expect to bo
coaxed and flattered by both sides up
to tho day of election, when, if thoy
voto at all. n doubt remains as to which
party they condescended to favor with
their ballot.
Of this class not n few nro standln g
