It will be classed as one of the largest fires ever known in that city. Over $2,000,000 worth of property rolled skyward in smoke and flame in less than five hours. The building in which the fire originally started was owned by the Mendell Brothers, real estate men of Chicago, and was occupied by Alfred Benjamin & Co., probably the largest manufacturers of fine ready-made men’s cloth- ing in the country. composed of Isaiah Josefa, A.

V. Connett & Co., haters, on the lower floors. ON GREEN STREET. Meantime the fire had extended on the Green street side to the six-story twenty-five-foot front brick building occupied partly by Rosen- stein and partly by Sylvester Levacher & Co., manufacturers of hats, caps and furs. The building extended through to Mercer street, and the fire speedily forced its way out on that side of the structure. It looked aa if the whole block was doomed. About 7 o'clock the roof of the building in which the fire started fell if with a crash, carrying floor after floor with it in its descent. FIREMEN'’S NARROW ESCAPE. Afew minutes later the front wall toppled and fell into Bleecker street and the firemen had to seurry lively to save their lives. As it was, one of them was struck by a falling brick on the leg, but not seriously injured. His name is E. J. Worth of engine 30. Finally but one of the eastern walls of the building was left stand- ing. Then the roof of Hammerslough’s build- ing fell in, but the other walls remained intact. ty 10 o'clock the firemen had the flames well in hand, and there seemed to be no danger of its spreading furthe mated, are as follow: ing, $400,000; stock, €450,000.

The receipts for tho year were reported to be $3,000. A lunch was served by the ladies of the church and at the afternoon session Mrs. White, who hhas been engaged in missionary work in China, gave a bright and interesting talk in regard to the missionary operations in the celestial em- pire. She laid special emphasis of the need of women missionaries and spoke at length of the degraded and hopeless condition of a large number of the Chinese women.

Mme. Bernhardt brought thirty-nine pieces of small baggage to the hotel with her. Most of the thirty-nine are opened and shut many times every day, as something or other in it is neces- sary to comfort of great artisie. AFTER BREAKFAST yesterday, and today also, about twonty-five gentlemen and ladies, with twenty-five sepa- rate and distinct reasons for talking with Xue. Bernhardt, came to call upon her. ‘Twenty-five very greatly disappointed persons to go away without sceing her» To all she sent down a polite message, be; to be ex- cused on account of gencral fatigue and askin them to call again another day. ‘They di come again today, and some of them will prob- “bly have the great satisfaction given them before Sara again faces the footlights. Between the callers yesterday Mme. Sara slipped out fora drive ‘and stayed out until 5o'clock. She brought back an —— fora light and dainty repast that was being served while the angelus was ringing from the belfry at St. Matthew's. AFTER THE PERFORMANCE Bernhardt sits down to @ cold supper. One hot dish only is served, and that is made of eggs prepared in some tasty way. She basa good many pleasant things to say of the andi- ences which she has faced the last two nights. She is charmed with the culture their intelli- gent faces convey and the thorough apprecia- tion that they have of her art. As for Washington weather, Bernhardt thinks it is perfect and has been manufactured specially to go with all the perfect details Which is going to make her Washington visit « memorable one. IX CONVERSATION. There isa general impression that her hold on English is not very secure, and that the average admirer here, whose acquaintance with French is similarly light, would not get on very well in a nice sociable chat. ‘The entle” Sara—she is gentle this time— nows plenty of English for every-day of business. She has a way in g | two or three English or American phrases and up the spaces with such suggestive shrugs and gestures that her meaning never joes begging. Conversation with Bernhardt another peculiar turn. A young gentleman who essayed to interview her yesterday ex- pisined Dlushingly that he cold get on famously if there was nobody else around, Bernhardt heiped a fellow out of linguistic snares so well. ‘There is a great deal in that which may not appeal except in individual cases. Some of the foreigners who have been and will be the rest of the week the hosts of numerous box parties are, it is alleged, making strenuous efforts to have the artiste mect their guests at the little after theate: suppers. it is not likely that «he will, as it is said she does not approve of that end'to her evening's per- formances. eee IN ALEXANDRIA COUNTY. ‘The Subject of County Roads Considered at » Meeting at Walker School House.

Evidence Tending to Implicate California Legislators. Both San Francisco evening papers charge that Attorney General Hart has in bis posses: sion evidence tending to implicate a number of the California legislators. A document tore into picces is said to have been found pasted together, which contains a list of those whe | Were to receive money. The memorandum was written on a manilla pad, and the impres- sion went through on the lower sheet. Ip connection with the memorandum were found Wrappers from @ Fresno bank, showing thas they had been torn from the money. The accusation ia based upon the discovery of papers in the waste basket in the office of the state librarian. W. 8. Leake, assistant state librarian, is quoted as saying that yesterday morning two assemblymen who had sup Porting De Young. bat who yesterday voted for Felton, came into the state librarians Private office and made some figures on # ma | nilla pad, which they afterward tore up, and | Which he collected and turned over to some of lieutenants of Estee. From these the inference is given out that they definitely disclose that £21,600 was drawn from the Fresno bank, and the list of assemblymew against whose names the amounts are writteu | have received mone Attorney General Hart acknowledges that he has papers in his possession, but declines for public reasons to make all the facie known at this time. A resolution was introduced in the senate yesterday afternoon authorizing the attorney general to make public the evidence found in the alleged bribery case. It is thought prob able that a committee will be ted today to investigate the whole matter. Felton says it is his desire to have the affair sifted thoroughly. ————e+—____ SOUTHERN OPINION. The AUanta “Constitution” Believes That the North Approves of the Lynching. A New York World's Atlanta, Ga., special says: The Constitution, referring to the effect of the news of the New Orleans lynching iu both north and south, will say editorially to- day: “In the south society wages war aguinst criminals and not against foreigners. In the north society wages war against foreigners and not against criminals. This is a plain state: ment of the case, and the comments of the Press upon the recent New Orleans lynching will bear us out. For half a century the northern newspapers have been opposing lyneb law, declaring that it is never a justifiable remedy. On the other hand, the representative newspapers of the south, while deprecating the wild justice of the mob, have maintained that, in exceptional instances, it is right for the Je to resume their sovereignty and peat oad Sexperate remedy to a desperate evil. “Just now the utterances of the press are unu. sually significant. With few exceptions the bead- ing northern dailies agree with the Times that the citizens of New tragedy was mighty, monstrous. ng Views to be accounted for? this outbreak is defended or palliaved in the north? The explanation is in the surface. If the victims had been mogrocs the mortiers press would have boiled over and the interference of the federal government and the reconstruction of Louisiana. Bat the men who were executed to be Italians, for ei Ts, and that made it quite another matter.
