Their efforts, however, were futile for as the enemy approached the wind arose and changing just as it reached their frail cor don whirled around in one awful torrent, and lapped the poor victims' lives out be fore they had hardly realized their danger. The bodies were found, all but Bailey hav ing died apparently soon after being struck by the gale of fire, fteports of damage with loss of life are rife, but confirmation of them is impossible.

Several men started for liini, but before he could be overtaken he placed the re volver, which he still held in his band, to bis head and fired, the ball entering just above and back of the right ear.

BOSTON, March 11.—One of the most de structive fires in the history of Boston, next in magnitude to the famous one of Thanksgiving day, 1889, and in the same district, broke out shortly after 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon, and before it was placed under control, three hours later, had burned over more than a square, had reduced to ashes several of the magnificent new buildings recently completed on the territory burned over three and a half years ago, had consumed property, vahn d by a conservative estimate at $4,500,000, had been attended by scenes of panic and distress never before equaled in the mem ory of citizens now living and had de stroyed five human lives and mangled or maimed at least 80 persons, some of whom will dio of their injuries.

L. Ames. The cause is at present unknown, but the start is described by those nearest it as reeem bling the bursting of a fire cracker. The flames spread with incredible rapid ity, and in a very few moments the entire interior of the building was burning. There were many employees of the Partridge company at work at the time, and the other floors of the building were sprinkled with human beings. The usual avenues of escape were at once cut off, and then began a scramble for life which sickened behold ers. The panic stricken inmates fled to windows and roof. Some escaped by slid ing down the telegraph poles, others by leaping into blankets and nets. Several jumped to the pavement, six or eight stories, and were terribly mangled. The entire fire department of the city was speedily on the scene. The depart ments of Somerville, Cambridge, Newton, Quincy and Brockton arrived later by train ami aid was requested to be in readiness from more distant cities. The LOBS lit 84,300,000. The fire spread rapidly from build ing to building, and despite the heroic efforts of the entire system of Suffolk county was not controlled until the entire square bouuded by Essex street on the north, Lincoln on the east, Tufts on the south and Kingston on the west had been leveled. The flames also consumed one building north of Essex street extending along Co lumbia street, three more ou the east side of Lincoln street, and one corner of the United States hotel, south of Tufts street, which corner contained the Emergency hospital. A conservative estimate of the total loss is $4,500,000. The insurance will amount to about $4,000,000. The principal buildings burned were as follows: Ames building, seven stories; Li* coin building, five stories; Ludlow build ing, six stories; Brown Durell building, seven stories; five story brick building, cor ner Columbia and Essex streets; United States hotel, slightly damaged; three small buildings, between the Ames building and the United States hotel.
