JUDGE HOADLEY, WHAT HE ‘THINKS OF UNIO AND INDIANA. Spectat Mspatch to The Chicago Tribune, New Yon, Sept. 8—Judge George Noad- ley, of Cincinnati, O., is stopping at the Gil- sey House, in this elty. Judge Hondley was a Greeley Republican, aubsequently a Demo- erat, und ‘Temporary Chairman of the late Democratle National Convention, He also ongayed Ina debute recently ut Clifton and Walnut Hills, in Cineinnatl, with ex-Sena- tor Stanley Matthews, which attracted N: tonal attention, Judge Hoadley fs a lawyer of large practice, and las an extensive ne- auaintance with public men and affairs, Your correspondent asked him to-day what he thought of tho political situation, taking intoaccount the Vermont election, He replied that the Vermont Republicans ought to have got out more votes than they did. The State had gone as he supposed it would, except that, as the Republicans had spent a great deal of money, they should have had a larger majority. Ile belleved the full Republican inajority of that State to be about 30,000. THe regarded the election as not having the slightest Influence upon National polities ono way or the other, When Indiana was mentioned the Judge's face became thought- ful. He sald he believed Indiana would goas it always had done, from 5,000 ta 10,000 Dem- ocratic majority. He was sure the Demoeratle TE BELIEVED THE DEMOCRATS were hopeful of carrying Indiana as they did four years ago.

He believed the Congresstonal nomtnatlons by the Democrats hud been more -propittous than those made by the Repudlleans, who were somewhat split up, One more Dewo- eratic opinion was gut aut of Judge Hoad- 4 and that was that Garfield was weaker in ilo than the Republican ticket, Nethought the Republicans carried the State election by only 4,000 or F007 the Democrats would carry the National ticket for Hancock and English, Hnuilton County, and the Democrats haye agsitrance that they will eatry that county.

A FIRE-SWEPT REGION, Spectal Dispatch to The Chicaga Tribune, Upton Vit.uacr, Quebec, Sept, &—Bush fires have been hovering around thts village for more thana week past, and some dis« tricts that could not have been cleared for years have been leveled ina few days. No one seems to have apprehended any {mme- date danger, and matters went ou ns ustial tit Monday afternoon, when the wind In- creased tu a perfect guile. ‘The fire began to eneroach upon the village, driven trom tho south, Men were compelled to give up work in the sj wouten and ehlldren fled for shelter; und for. the next two hours the St. Helene, St. Germain, aud St. Guillaume roads were thronged with them, each family seeking the safest place. The flames rosé and made eseape diflicnit, especially in the St, Helene road, across whieh slmost for its cutire length the flaines swept with great raplilty, Those who had escaped by the road to Upton were gathered together in the houses of friends at night, and jn counting those present a large number were supposed to be missing, ‘The following are the naines, a3 far as can be learned, of those who had their houses, out-buildings, and erops de- stroyed: J, DB. Ledoux, 2. Cure ver, OL, HH. Pierre, L, Potvin, F. Colette, P. Deserci, J. -Petlt, J. Pouti L, Cliche, L, Cliche, Jr, E. Evalide, J. Louiselle. A, Monquin, P. Cole, F. Bren- vineau, P. Bolssenette, J. Touplne, and S, Tadoussenu, This inorning some of the missing turned Up, some of them very badly burned, but there were three who could not escape, and who were found opposit_ thelr farm on the St, Helen road, their boilles ‘burned to o erlsp. Thelr names are: Plerre Currier, 80 years old. Joseph Currier, 28 years ald. A grandson of Plerre, Telesphore Currier, a lad 17 years old, 4 ‘The wounded and burned are: Xavier Major, burned on the head, shoul- ders, arms, and feet so badly that he cannot recover. Dr, Gauthier, burned on the lefthand, arm, sud face E Louis Cliche, both hands, arms, and right side of the face badly burned. The unfortunate Currlers, it seems, en- deavored to save thelr property, and when they found this hnpossible tried to escape, but found It Inpossible, The body of tho old man was discovered, face downwards, in aditeh nenr his house, and the action of the fire upon his body had drawn the back up. til! he formed. a bow, with his feet und head. touching the ground, When tho parties discovered ils lifeless body a hare which had sought refuca under it Jumped out and esenped. ‘Tho body of Joseph was discovered In a ditch just In front of the house, and that of the lad way In a tleld near by. Dr. Gauthier received his burus in the cause of suffering humanity. Me hind been called to attend a patient some distance on the road to St. Guillaume and was provided with a fect horse wherewith to escape on horseback, His horse became frightened and threw him into a pile of burn- Ing brushwood, burning him very severely. ‘The Doctor describes his escape as Httleshort of uiiraculous, and says that occasionally tho flames seemed to Inve tho speed of a rave- horse as he ran along to escape them. Xavier Major was berned whilo trying to save ils houso and barns, and It is supposed he in- hated some of the flames in escaping, Louls Schule, ono of the wealtlest inen In theso parts, also remained to fight the fire, but was not successful, and after seeing all his houses. and barns destroyed attempted to escape, Ho suffers very much, One of the most remarkable escapos was that of Plerre Coté. Iu owns the fann which adjoins that of the Currlers, and when his wife and children started to escape he, Uke Lot's wife, looked back, and then went back resolved to sew the lust of his splendid barns and crops, Ie saw his barns catch fire and the fire in one or two places In hls yards among tho chfp piles, Then he turned to flee for life, and found the Ste, Julien road * in the flaines, Te then turned back, re- solved to tight the flames to the Inst, Le had but four palis of water with which to do It, and the river was more than 9 infle away, but he used his water evonomically, aud when It falled he used 9 spade and throw carth upon evory spot .that took fire, ‘Then he tore down the fenees, and once, when a stump took fire at the barn, he tore the burning pleces off one by one, and at Jength he managed to move the stump bodl- ly away, He Isamall, five foot three Inches In hight, and the last man that one would take fora man of nerveor energy, On the road from the station to the rosldence of Currler sro the ruins of fully ascore of bulldings, while every. few acres people aro seen coming in with articles saved from the flames, Corn was standing roasted, and the potatoes were baked. Carcassea of - cows wore lyhig in the ditches, while tho furrows were iilled with ashes whieh «rifted, about inthe wind with binding effect, A message has arrived from St. Vation to say that already in that vieinity $40,000 worth of farm property and stock have been cons sumed, The toss Is estimated ut $125,000, None of the losses are insured, ‘Tho St. Jeling and St. Guillaume Road losses cannot be vstlinated yet, ag the very roadways areun fire aud the bridges burned, é ‘The dre at one tlhe was go near the centre of the village that the hemlock bark yard of Messrs, Goodhue Brothers took fire, dnd had It not been quenched the whole village would have been burned, Itty sald some sevonty- five families have been burnedout, As these are all lreuch-Canadian fouilles, the home: Tess, people may bo set down us between 300 ‘The tire burned nearly everything, and left pandly a trace of uny of the barns or build- ngs.
