I ‘ SIX GIRLS REPORTED MIssmNG, Scenes in the Sixth Precinct Sta- tion House—Mourning Rela- tives and Friends. The Ashes of Barnum’s Match-Box and Mena- gerie Viewed by Thousands of Visitors. The Centre street fire has, probably, been at- tended with the most disastrous consequences. It is now defi nitely ascertained that six of the girls who worked in the bookbinding establishment of Anderson & Archer are missing, and the suppost- tion is that they perished when. the walls of the tinder bex ip which they worked. fel}, Following 80 close upon the Fifth Avenue Hotel dtsaster, in which eleven servants: lost their lives, this’ last catastrophe has produced a widespread sgengation, and on yesterday tt was the general theme of con- versation. The unfortunate girls might have easily escaped had the fire escapes been good, but, they were lamentably deficient. Onlya few weeks ago they were condemued by Superintendent Macgregor and new ones were ordered, but the order was NOP CARRIED INTO EFFECT, and the result was that six human beings, and per- haps more, have in all probavility been sacrificed. The indignation of the people was vented in no sparing manner yesterday by the crowds who visited the ruins, and the question was asked by every one, ‘Are the lives of working people and servanta of 80 little value that they should be so ruthlessly made away with?” Some additional particulars of the predicament in which the girls were placed when the fire broke out were obtained by the HBRALD reporter yester- day. A son of Mr. Middleton, the occupant of the corner building, states that immediately after the alarm was sounded he went up stairs to. save some property, when his attention was attracted by the screams of the girls in the burning building. Look- ing up, he saw a number of them on the fire-escape, being rescued by the police. While those who first reached the escape were being taken down a scc- ond instalment got on, and immediately after the walls of the building gave way, and Mr, Middleton saw No more of the girls. It1s, therefore, evident that they must have fallen into the ruins, and if so it is fearfal to CONTEMPLATE THEIR FATE. Had it not been for the exertions of the police and the firemen the whole number who worked in the trap might have been lost, and the calamity, terrible as it is, might have been further in- creased, The names of those who are missing are as fol- lows:—Jane stewart, of 77 Chariton street, in- quired for by her father; Bridget McGrath, of 331 First avenue, inquired for by her brother Michael; Margaret Donohue and Mary Donohue, sisters, of 123 East Tenth street, inquired for by their brother ; Margaret Bell and Charlotte Bell, sisters, inquired for by their brother Alexander, and James Bevins, a boy aged twelve, residing at 164 Broome street, inquired for by George W. Boyle, of No. 4 Birmingham street. The scene at the Franklin street station house during the day was heartrending. The relations of the missing girls were frantically rushing about to obtain any clew by which they could trace their lovedones. Jennie Stewart's father states that sne was always in os habit of coming home regul tly every t, ant if she bad been rescued would Sane have heard trom her. The brother of the Beils was sure that if one sister was lost the two must be, ag they were so much attached to each other they could not be separated. When it was dis- covered that no ang ll had been tecetved vat the station house those in search of them wept bitterly, bemoaning the un- looked-for calamity which came so unexpectedly upon what would otherwise have been the joyous season of Christmas, One of the firm of Anderson & Archer stated yes- tte giv anda that he was positive that two of the girls and @ boy were lost. He did not know the boy’s name, but he says he had a beautiful tenor voice, and his Singing was much admired by the ladies who visited the establishment. An amusing incident occurred during the fire, Anold Peon man namod Brandt, who worked in the buildiag, while making his escape, was PLACED IN IMMINENT DANGER, So close was he to the flames that his wooden leg caught, and it was eompletely burned He otherwise escaped umhurt.

The following testimony was taken before Fire Marshal McSpedon in the case of Adolph Kibel, who is now under arrest charged with having set fire to the premises of John Loehr, a match manu- fecturer, on the 5th day of July, 1869:— John Loehr stated—I keep a match factory at No. 427 West Filty-fourth street; a fire occurred there on the Sth day of July, 1869, after six A. M.; I never knew how the fire happened; suspected it was set on fire because two of my neighbors told me a couple of days after the fire that they saw some- body on the roof, heard a pistol shot and saw the smoke coming cut of the window; I have never been able to find out who was on the roof and fired the pistol; I keep a lager beer saloon in the front part of my building; there was grocery store at No. 427 West Fifty-fourth street, kept by and his wife; her brother, Adolph Ktbel, lived with them at the time of this fire; I HAD NO ACQUAINTANCE with him at the time; about three weeks ago, on a Sunday, about two o’clock P. M., Kibel came in my place and got a glass of lager; he was sober at the time; nobody was there besides ourselves, except Mr. Grasser, 426 West Fifty-fourth street; 1 didn’t know his name at that time; he said to me in ~~ presence of Grasser that he hoped I would lorgive the old enmity, and bring my father over to his sister’s store to get my groceries <H I said I held no enmity, and he said he knew thought he was the cause of m fire a and he then said that he did es the roof and fired a the skylight, and that he ae think it would burn so quick; 1 thought I would do nothing about it until 1 was more cer: I TOLD NOBODY ABOUT Ir, but made inquiry about his ni "and asked Grasser if he could go with me when I wanted in asked {or Mis batkee ir was Ay) ae tt hat he head nid. be aren ace [~ to see his face again That he aid set it on fire, and sexed mete him, and1 told the door ; werep ot but ni Fifty-fourth street; is the man I saw in Lochr's vince ia were several others in the rf while I was there; he had @ an things I heard something. sald ‘about what he would do; heard Loehr tell him to GET OUT OF THE HOUSE, that he didn’t want to see him there again; ned he had set his house on fire; heard Kibe! he did set it on fire, but that he dia it fool did not say how he did it, nor why he did it; he went out directly after this; he said something as a Sm going out the door which I did not under stand, THE O'HARE HOMICIDE, Ante-Mortem Statement of the Victim. Some further particulars were yesterday ob- tained in relation to the deadly assault made upon John O'Hare by John Fitzgibbons in the tenement ue 308 East Forty-sixth street, early yesterday orning, a8 heretofore published in the Hera. Born parties, it appears, occupy rooms on the third floor, and at tl hour nained Fitzgibbons, a very orank, went to O’Hare’s room and burst the" doo itzgibbons then returned to his m, followed by O'Hare, who remonstrated r what he had don Wherecpen, Fitz- ibbons stepped into a close! seizing a atchet, dealt O'Hare several power 1 blows on the head with the edge of the Weert, Secturing his skull and knocking him down in state of reeemety The alarm was rostantly raised by some inmates of the house, when Officer Connolly, of the Nineteenth precinct, rushed into the pours, and arrested Fitzgibbons, who confessed his it, bat made no further explanation. Dr. Burton was forthwith summoned to attend O'Hare, and by his advice the victim was subsequently removed to Bellevue Hospital, where he lies in a very critical condition, Yesterday aiternoon Coroner Young was notified to take O'Hare’s ante- mortem statement, but it seemed very doubtful if he was in @ condition to give a clear and intelli- gible statement of the occurrence, Fitzgibbons will be detained in custody to await the result of his victim’s injuries, A CORRECTION, MONTGOMERY, Ala., Dec. 20, 1572, To THE Epiton OF THE HERALD:— In @ letter writtenfrom Montgomery Decem- ber 12, and published im your paper on the 16th inst., @ typographical error occurs which does us great injustice. Our house is called “Spencer's Headquarters,” which it is not and never hasbeen, and is severcly Gritiatesd. in @ way it does not de- serve, The error alluded to is the printing “Ex- change Hotel” where the bg evidently meant the “Madison House,” which is Spencer's 's Head- quarters.” The correspondent correctly refers to our house asthe democratic headquarters in the same letter.

If the question is settled for this State it will lead to a repeal of the national USURY LAWS by Congress, especially as the recent decision of the Court of Appeals has set at naught the privi- leges of the national banks in the matter of usury and has made them citizens of the State as regards their obedience to the law on the subject of usury. Many of the States have already abolished’ the Usury laws, and with positive benefit to their domestic interests. Very few people imagine how great an amount of capital is going in a steady stream from the East to the West in pursuit of the HIGHER RATES ov INTEREST paid in the latter region, where the security of investments is appreciating every day with, the: wider settlement and growing civilization of the country. Ten per cent and even twelve per cent: mortgages on real estate im Western cities. like Chicago, St. Louls, St. Paul, Milwankee, are getting to be a popular investment with Eastern capitalists. Were the Usury laws abolished and the interest rate allowed to find its level in the East we should have the advantage of all this capital diverted from us to other and more profitable flelds of enterprise and investment. This question is naturally supple- mented or accompanied by a fresh agitation for A SYSTEM OF FRER BANKING, for which the situation of the finances offers un- usual facilities, It is an axiom that the banking business regulates itself and that it cannot become any more redundant than that water will fow up hill, Our great civil war has created a basis for an admirable system of free-baiking in the bonds of the national govern- ment, which, being a primary ebligation upon every doliar of the national wealth, must be the last article of value that can depreciate. Lands, houses, farms, merchandise, all are virtu- ally mortgaged for the payment of these obliga- tions. From day to day and month to month the sentiment is GROWING IN THE COMMUNITY that these obligations can never be repudiated, aud that they will be as permanent under any form of government as have been the obligations of the chameleon government of France. The political party that would dare to propose their repudtation would be as ingloriously defeated as were the Louisville Bourbons at the election in November last. Should it ever be our misfortune to have a coup @état at Washington and a new form of gov- ernment the incoming authorities would have to base their financial operations on an immediate recognition of the present national debt or their treasury would go as empty as a beggarman’s pocket. A system of free banking would intro- duce currency wherever it is needed.and prevent the great efflux and reflux of money which we wit- ness every year in the movement between THE MONEY CENTRE of New York and the agricultural and industrial regions of the country. With our bonds as the en- forced basis of this currency and banking system, we should keep at home the interest they pay and save so much of the outward drain of coin, The encouragement of industry by enlarged employ- ment of it would cause competition between capi- talista and cheapen the production of domestic merchandise. When once we have lowered the cost of our produce and manufactures ten per cent the gold premium will be soon obliterated. As we stand at present we are nearly the dearest country to buy in and the most profitable to sell to. Hence from year to year the trade balance ir against us and gold shipments are required to settle the account.
