Tho fire started In tfco lumber yard on
the Oatawissa road, near Chostnut etrcot,
owned by J am 03 R. Cleavor & Co., and
dostroyed all the lumbor in tbo yard to.
gothor with a stable.
The flames then spread eastward to the
row of four 2-story dwellings owned by
J. B. Prico and burned tho buildings to
the ground in a short time.
The Blab les of tbo Union Houso woro
next ignited and destroyed. Theso stables
were also owned by J. 11. Prico.

THE READING CHANGES.
encral Houso Cleaning doing on nt tlia
l,eUlj;li Vnlley Dcput.
Tho Lohigb. Vulloy depot, which passed
under the control of the Philadelphia and
Reading Railroad Company on Monday,
puts ono In mind of a houso into which
new tenant has moved beforo the old ono
could get out. Tho faded, old-fashioned
& R. desks and cases removod from tho
old dopot on East Centro street crowd tho
Lohigh Valley lurnituro for n om Bnd here
and thero are stacks of o'.d documents
belonging to both companies that soora to
askinR each other, "What are they
going to do with us?"
Yestorday afternoon ono of tho derricks
on a P. & R. wreck car was turned over
tho platform of the old P. & R. passonger
depot and in a few minutes tbo safe, desks
and furniture that had beon in use at tho
depot for so many years were hoisted upon
tho car. They wero taken to the Lehigh
Valley dppot. Tho safe v,as placed in tho
ticket offlco and tho docks and furniture
woro consigned l the freight depot.
Electricians yesterday put tbo P. & R.
telephone and tolegruph instruments in
the Lehigh Valley ticket offlco.
The work of cleaning out the now
abandonod Lohigh freight depot was begun
yesterday. The place looked liko tho old
curiosity shop described by Dickens,
Satchels, somo empty and others bulging
with clothing, o'd sewing machines, rock
ing chiirs and bedsteads, barrels of sprout
ing potatoos, empty and filled trunks, boxes
of soap, bags of flour, cans of vegetables
and fruits, and a thousand scraps of cloth
ing and articles of merchandise woro turned
over, examined and consigned to one of
two heaps, rs their condition and thq
circumEtancos of the company's pospession
requirod. Articles which Agent Davios
thought would.be claimed wore placed in a
car and sent to the Main streot P. & R.
depot. The articles that seemed to bo
hopelessly abandoned were piled up in ono
corner of tho Lohigh froight depot and will
remain thoro until thoy can bo shipped to
Philadelphia, to be sold with tbo tons of
unclaimod tin 11 which the railroad com
panies put up at auction sale.
Agent Daviod was asked what would bo
dono with the Lehigh freight depot. Ho
said ils fate had not been decided upon.
For tho presont it will bo kcked up and
used only whon tho prosont ba?gago room
becomes too crowded.
The old P. & R. passenger dopot at tho
corner of Centre and Union streets is now
permanently abandoned. Its doors and
windows are locked and tho goneral ap
poaranco is gloomy as the deserted small
pox hospital on tho mountain.
The dopot employes are still on tho
anxious bench. They expected tho
changes of positions would be made on
Monday, but tho visit of the offirmls for
that purpose was postponod until yester
day. But they havo not anived yet and
to-day it was announced that tho delay
was duo to the illnoss of Assistant Super
