The Commissioners have about decided to erant the request of the Columbia Heights Citizens’ Association and repair the side- walks on Kenesaw avenue between 13th ard ldth streets. There was no money to bay for this work unless the appropriation for the repair of county roads was used. After careful consideration, the Commis- Sioners are of opinion that the necessary repairs being on suburban streets, the ap- Propriation in question may be applied.

ETI SI ATS ga HEAVY LOSS BY FIRE Business Center of Pittsburgh Swept by Flames. ONE FIREMAN KILLED, FOUR INJORED Losses Are Estimated at $3,000,- 000, Partially Insured. FIRE’S ORIGIN UNKNOWN ——— PITTSBURG, Pa., May 3.—The most dis- astrous fire that has visited Pittsburg since the great fire of 1845, excepting during the riots of 1877, destroyed $3,000,000 worth of merchandise and property last night, and Probably resulted in two deaths and the injury of four others. Not only is the loss of property enormous, but it involves the complete destruction of two of the great- est mercantile houses of Pittsburg, houses of long and proud record and known far and wide in Pennsylvania and the neigh- boring states and sister cities. The great wholesale grocery establish- ment of Thos. C. Jenkins and the mam- moth retail store of Jos. Horne & Co. are total rujns. There remain of the first only ragged patches of walls here and there towering into blackened pinnacles, and of the latter there stands only the great naked framework, built of structural iron, which would not fall, but is stripped of walls and floors and festooned only with the draggling shreds of blackened strips of timber, crinkled pieces of sheet iron and twisted rods and wires. They are mourn- ful monuments of wealth and commercial enterprise. The burnt section extends from 5th street to Cecil alley on Penn avenue, and from Cecil alley to 5th street on Lib- erty street, covering an area of several acres. List of Killed and Injured. The names of the killed and injured are: Killed—George Atkinson, No. 15 Engine Company. Fireman Atkinson’s mangled remains were taken from the ruins this morning. George Thomas and the other missing fire- men have all turned up. The injured men will all recover. Injured—Elmer Croko, No. 7 Engine Com- pany, struck on the head by falling bricks. Michael Daly, No. 7 Engine Company, cut and bruised, and arm broken by falling are lamp. Robert Badger, No. 4 Engine Company, ankle broken. Geo. Meekin, No. 7 Engine Company, struck by falling bricks and cut and bruised. A number of other firemen are missing, and are supposed to be buried under the walls at Liberty avenue and Cecil alley. The sufferers by the fire and their esti- mated losses are: T. C. Jenkins, wholesale grocery, totally destroyed; stock valued at $400,000; insur- ance $150,000; building valued at $100,000, insurance about $50,000. Jos. Horne & Co., retaf! dry goods, to- tally destroyed. Stock and building valued at $1,600,000, fully insured. Horne office building, totally destroyed. Valued at $100,000, insurance $60,000.

Four three-story dwelling houses on Penn avenue, occupied by Hall & Geis, hair- dressers; Dr. Sykes, Dr. Manchester and Michael Blondin. The houses were wholly or partially destroyed; loss, $20,000. Seven freight cars, loaded with meat be- longing to Swift & Co. of Chicago, standing on Liberty street; loss, $7,000. Duquesne Theater Saved. The Duquesne Theater and the Surprise Clothing Company’s immense store were on fire. several times, but were saved, with small loss. A number. of other neighboring business houses and tenants in various buildings suffered greater or less individual losses, the aggregate of which it is impossible to give at present. The fire broke out, no one knows how, about midnight, in the wholesale grocery building of T. C. Jenkins & Co., and burned with great fury until 4 o’clock this morning before it was finally controlled. The insurance has not yet been figured up, but it must surely exceed $1,500,000. an Fishing Good. The fishing season is now in full, blast and the local nimrods are finding all condi- tions good. The fish are biting lively and some excellent catches have been reported. Perch seem to be very abundant this year, and of good size, judging by the large number that have already been caught. Plenty of large perch are caught any- where between the Long bridge and the Aqueduct bridge, while above the latter structure smaller fish are caught. The water yesterday was exceptionally clear in the river, and the fishermen took advantage of it. Policeman Charlie Birkigt succeeded in getting over 200 large perch day before yesterday, after spending only a few hours in the afternoon out on the river. A num- ber of other fishermen have made equally as good catches as he, using live bait and cut smelt. ‘There is very little dipping now going on in the upper Potomac—much less, it seems, than last year. It is true that there is some dipping, but the illegal fishermen are somewhat afraid of the law and are chary in their operations. ———— His Birthdzy. The eighty-fifth birthday of the vener- able Monsignor Edward S. McColgan, vicar general of the archdiocese of Baltimore, occurred yesterday. The aged priest is greatly beloved by hosts of friends, and many of them called at His home, the parochial residence of St. Peter's, to pay their respects. Monsignor McColgan has, it is stated, built more churches, convents and institutions of various kinds for boys and girls than any other priest in the United States, if not in the world.
