When the firp reached Julia street.' it wns n mining furnace without any pros pect of being put under control. The local military companies were call ed out to keep back the crowds, nnd the ire department began to use dynamite to blow up the houses u block from ' fir and thus prevent the firo from spreading. So fioreo wns the blaze, how ever, and so strong had become the wind that millions of sparks nnd Hying burn lug shingles spread over five or six blocks, setting the roofs of the houses on fire in advance of the fire department. Soon Senator Taliaferro's residence and then the adjoining houses on that block were ablaze. Desperate efforts were made to save the Windsor and the St. Jnmes hotels, but both houses were quick ly enveloped in tlamus. Leaping madly across the street from the Windsor, the (lames set tire to the Seills House nml then the Methodist parsonage. A few moments later the Trinity M. K. church was a mass of flumes. The Opera House block followed, and then the Richards and Livingstone boarding houses. A desperate effort wns made to stive the Knlihvin mansion, which was recently purchased by the KIks for $1ihh. No earthly power could save this building, and that entire block and the one west of it were quickly a mass of tlamus. Once the tire got started on Main street the closely ad joining buildings went one after the oth er, l'aint shops, with barrels of oil iu stock, were plentiful in this district, nnd as they caught on fire one after the oth er the blaie rose hundreds of feet high and quickly set the other buildings across the street on fire. The city building went, the fire de partment building, the armory, the coun ty courthouse, the clerk's ottice with the county records, the criminal courthouse, the city jail and the graded schools and the Catholic church ami orphanage, St. John's Episcopal chinch uud the convent. Almost the entire city of magnificent buildings was burned up iu less than four hours. The Ncene was one that beggars description. At 8:80 p. in. the fire was otiecked at the intersection of Laurel nnd Kay streets, where the Commercial bank is located, which went up in flames, the Western Union building being just across the street and not being damaged. Six lives nre reported lost in the con flngration. The pluns of the city as prepared by the city surveyors show that l.'iO blocks were burned nnd n part of another block The estimate of residences to the block iu the residential district is ten. nnd iu the business section the blocks were solid Mayor Rowden snys the property loss will exceed .$1.".N H),(M M).

The almost superhuman work of the different committees has somewhat relieved the situation, and it is now believed that in every instance those without proper food and clothing have in a measure been provided for and that last night there was vastly fewer people who were com polled to sleep upon the streets. Two hundred additional tents were erected, nnd while they were very crowd ed last night ami while several churches nnd sehoolliousos in the suburbs also were crowded with sleepers Ibis condi tion also will be relieved today by the arrival of 2,00ll tents from the general government nt Washington, which Chair man Hours of the housing committee will have erected at once. The military companies have been of great assistance to Mr. Hours with their experience in rapidly electing tents, and before tonight tl.ere will lie several tented villages in the city with cots nnd blaukuts aud a wn tor supply in ulmost every village for the sulTeicrs. Today there also will be provided several extra commissary stn tions in various parts of the city to re lieve the situation nt the two nliendy es tablished, und no doubt there will be one in each village of tents. There has been no outbreak of sickness In the city, and the several cases of nervous prostration which have been reported are now well on the way to recovery Thousands of people have left the city Those remaining will be able to receive some kind of labor at the bureaus which have been established Clouds of smoke still envelop the city from the smoldering embers of the con flagration, but many of the buildings have been sufficiently cooled off to allow the safes to be opened, and the books and papers of a great many concerns have been found only slightly scorched.

CUBANS WILL ACCEPT Convention Expected to Take Definite Action Today. COMillSSIOX'S RErORI FAVORABLE. Only n few HmllcnU Will Now Op pose the Plntt Ajiiemlment Se nor Ylllneniln Declares In Favor of Acceptance. HAVANA. Mny 8. The commission at the secret session of the constitutional convention presented nn extensive re port of thvir conferences with President MoKlnley and Secretary ltoot nnd 1 glowing account of the banquets nnd re ceptions tendered them. Honor Oibergh objected to incorporating nn account ol the social programme in the report, but the commission insisted upon this point. In reference to the third clause of th l'latt amendment the report stated that the I'nited Hlates would not intervene unless Cuba were attacked by n foreign power or unless there existed In Cuba a condition of affairs similar to that which existed under Spain at the time of Amer ican Intervention. Regarding coating stations, the report set forth that the places so desired by the I'nited States were Cnpes Maisl and San Antonio and another point command ing the entrance to- the gulf of Mexico. Those would be definitely determined tin- on when drawing tip the treaty, and the object of these stations would be the nininleiiaucp of the Independence ol Cuba ns well ns the protection of tho Vnltcd States. The report nlso said that the Vnltcd States would in no way inter fere In the local government and that President McKinley had promised to np point n commission to meet a Cuban cpm mission to discuss the economic question and to draw up a commercial treaty ne soon ns tho republic is established and that he advised the Cubans in the mean time to study the situation in this re snect. The report announced that See retnry Hoot had said that there was nothing in the Piatt amendment to pre vent Cuba having diplomatic representa tives in foreign countries. The report hns evidently mnde a good impression, and only n few radicals will continue to oppose tint acceptance of the amendment. Senor Villuendn, In an open letter declariug his Inteution to ac cept the amendment, said he first thought thut if the convention rejected the amendment Washington might change its policy, as he then believed the amend ment was the work of party. "1 now believe," said Hetior Villuenda, "thnt the amendment is the work of the. nation. There is no use iu objecting to the inevitable. It is either annexation or a republic with the amendment, and I prefer the latter. The United States government by insisting npou the amend ment shows that the Americans have changed troui their policy before the war nnd tiiat they no longer rely upon the Mouroe doctrine to protect the in terests of American republics." The convention will meet tomorrow and is expected to take definite action. Hen Moines Honors Conner, PES MOINES. May 4. Edwin H.

Oovernor Murphy and the territorial officers had met the party at the Congress mine nnd accompanied them back to Phenlx. At the station the territorial militia, a com pany of cowboys on bronchos nnd some of the friendly I'iina and Maricopa In dlnns joined In a wildly enthusiastic re ception.
