THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNE.SDAY.. DECEMBER 9, 1896. BURN FIERCELY FOR THREE HOURS Flames Sweep a Business Block in Montreal, Queb:zc. Big Structures in the Pathway of the Fire Quickly Reduce to Ruins. Larze Establishments That Suffer a Loss of Neariy Five Hundred Thousand Dollars. MONTREAL, Quesec, Dec. 8. — The most disastrous fire Montreal has experi- enced for a long time broke out shortly before 8 o’clock this evening in one of the upper stories in the center of the Barron block, on St. James street, extending from John et to St. Francis Xavier street, facing St. Lawrence Hall. the most dangerous locality in the very heart of the city, and in the immediate vicinity of the Temple building, the Standard Life Insurance building, the postoffice, Carsley’s big department store, the Canada Life Insurance and other great business structures. The upper stories of the Barron block ' are occunied by offices of various kinds, while the eround floors are occupied by Fulton & Richards, Freeman’s restaurant, A. W. Ross & Co., Gibbs & Cape, the Cen- tral Vermont and Intercolonial Railway ticket offices, and otber smaller offices. The fire spread with alarming rapidity, and when the fire brigade reached the scene the flames were shooting out of the middle of the block, while dense clouds of sparks rose and fell on St. Lawrence Hall, the postoffice and other structures, plac- ing them in imminent danger. The whole brigude was calied out and the firemen made desperate efforts to stop the prog- ress of the flames. The water-towers and other apparatus were brought into requi- sition, but at first the volume of water did not seem to have much effect and the flames rose with increasing fury. The fire spread to the old Bank of Toronto building, at the corner of St. John it was soon the firemen were g the corner wall out, sending a wave of flames across reet, er burning for three hours with ter- the fire was zot under control after 10 o'clock. The Barron valued at $300,000, is a complete . ong those who occupied the offices in the burned block and who lose all their effects are: The Union Life Insurance Company, Montreal and Wesiern Rail way, the Commercial Gazette, the Pontiac Junc- tion Railway, the Ottawa and Gaineau Railway offices, the Dominion Ailiance offices, the Manufacturers’ Life Insurance Company, the Manulacturers’ Guaraniee Company, the Ward Commercial Agency, the Mutual Investment Company, the Freehold Loan Company and a number of smaller offices, The premises of John Parslow, stationer, Freeman’s restaurant and Fuiton & Richards, publishers, on the ground floor, are also totally wrecked. The total lose will reach nearlv $500,000. DEBTS OF PACIFIC RAILROADS. Although the Refunding Bill Cannot Pass Huntington and His Crcwd hre on the Alert. NEW YORK, special from Washington say A careful canvass and weighing of probabilities sat- isfies the Pacific Railroads crowd that there is small prospect of the passage of the refunding bill this session. Too many big interests are arraying themselves in opposition. A strong attempt to secure the needed legislation will be made, however, and it is reprrted that the Union Pacific reor- ‘ganization committee will make a definite alternative proposition to pay the Govern- ment a lump sum for its equities in that property. How Huntinzton' stands with regard to that proposition is not known, the companies standing on a somewhat different basis. WASHINGTON, the purpose of Powers (R.)of Vermont, chairman of the House Committee on Pa- cific Railways, to arrange with Speaker Reed for an ecrly consideration of the bill reported at the last session to adjust the indebtedness of the Pacific roads to the Government. This falls due within a few weeks, and a settlement of the matter was deemed of suflicient importance by Presi- dent Cleveland to justify a reference to it in his annual message which was laid be- fore Congress. Mr. Powers said to-day that he did not doubt the Committ-e on 2ules would report an order setting aside a few days for consideration of the meas- ure. He is well satisfied that the urgency of the case is such that the House will pass the bill, as it is not a party meas- ure nor one in his judgment on which there should be a difference of opinion in the House. Senator Perkins, a member of the Sen- ate steering committee, says a desperate effort wili be made this winter to pass the Pacific roads refunding bill. The matter was brought up in cancus- this morning and discussea at considerable length, Senator Perkins is, of course, not at lib- erty to divalge caucus secrets, and was re- luctant to talk at all, but it is well known here to-night that the caucus referred the matter of the refunding bill to the steer- .ing committee and it is altogether probable that the bitl will soon come up in the Senate and will pass that body in spite of the fight that will be led by Sen- ator Morgan, backed by Senators White and Perkins. Senator White’s absence may delay action for a while at least. Senator Perkins says the opponents of the bill could occupy the time of the Senate in a discussion of the measnre and this would give the Los Angeles Senator time to reach Washineton. Representative Powers, chairman of the House Committee on Pacitic Railroads, said to THE CALL correspondent to-night that the committee would ask the Ru'es Conimittee 1o aliow three or four days for the bill's consideration, bat he did not know vet whether the time asked for be before or after the holidays. He ex- pressed the opinion that the bill wonld pass the Hounse. This is the opinion of nearly every one familiar with the situa- tion. It will also probably pass the Sen- ateand te signed by Presicent Cleveland. The fire was in | chances for the refunding scheme were SO favorable as they are now. ELAT G ALTGELD MAY BE DEPOSED. All the Tllinois Democrate Will Not Fol- low Ris Leadership. CHICAGO, Irn, Dec. 8.—Secretary Robert E. Burke of the Cook County Demi- ocratic Central Committee, and Joseph Martin, a member of the executive com- mittee, left to-night for Lincoln, Nebr., for the purpose of inviting William J. Bryan to be the guest of honor at the Jackson day banquet of silver Democrats, to be held here January 8, and to receive his answer. A banguet, at which many National leaders will be present and speak, is also being arranged by the National Democratic Committee for the same even- ing here. Tt is said that Mr. Burke will also repre- sent Governor Altgeld in aconference with Mr. Bryan to obtain his advice and views on the question on uniting the Democratic forces of the city for the municipal elec- tion next spring. There isa sharp divi- sion among the zilver Democrats, the Gov- ernor and his followers in the party ma- chine advocating an independent course, 50 as to keep up the silver agitation for the campaign of 1900. His supporters, how- ever, are said to be in the minority and there is strong talk of deposing the Gov- ernor from the leadership of the party in the State and city uniess a compromise agreement is reached. e g DIED FROM 1HE INJURIES.

VITRLITY THAT DEFIES DEATH Physicians in Three Cities Puzzled by Strange Cases. Portland Woman Drives a Steel Spike Into Her Temple and Lives. With Cleft Skul!l a Workman Is S ew'y Dying—Kelly’s Bullet. Pierced Brain. PORTLAND, Or., Dec. 8. —Thestrangest case of remarkable vitality ever having come under the observation of the surgical fraternity here is that of Mrs. Benjamin L. Jones of 513 East Eighteenth street, who in a novel way attempted suicide last Wednesday night. The woman drove a steel spike into her brain to a depth of five inches, but will recover. The entire family was busily engaged at 6 o’clock in dressing fowls for the market. Watching her opportunity, Mrs. Jones quietly arose from the group and made her way out of the room to the kitchen pantry. She had evidently ryrepared for what followed, for usually the implements used by the unfortunate woman were in different parts of the house. Grasping an ice pick and hatchet the demented woman placed the point of the former against her right temple and with successive blows from the hatchet drove the steel inch by inch through her skull and into the brain until the naft of the wooden handle of the ice pick stopped its further progress. The woman was taken to the Good Sa- maritan Hospital, where the spike was taken out of her head. A nurse says that, despite the fact that the five inches of steel had penetrated Mrs. Jones’ skull into the brain, she has had several com- paratively lucid moments. She would in- quire as to her family, where she was and what ailed her. Then she would relapse into an unconscious state of perhaps forty- eight hours’ duration. To-night Mrs. Jones is in a more critical condition than at any time since her sui- cidal attempt and her death before mid- night is expected. EFT SKULL. Frightful Injury to a Man Who Tried to Stop a Rumaway Horse. LOS ANGELEg, CAn., The voices ofa man and woman are pathetically min- gled in the Receiving Hospital here to- night. The former is & crazed, helpless, dying man, who in a heroic attempt to stop a runaway horse attached to a street- car received a blow at the base of the brain which cracked his skull open from ear to ear. This happened on Main street this fore- noon, where the hapless victim was work- ing upon the track of the railway com- pany. The man is A. A. Allen. His agonizing but muffled groans may be heard through- out the building. He retains his physicai powers in a remarkable degree, and two strong laborers have all theycan do to hold him upon the hospital cot, while he calls out in heartrending tones tor bis wife and children. While his utterances are remarkably distinct, and he seems at times to possess his senses nnimpaired, he does not recog- nize his distressed but faithful companion, who has remained by his side every mo- ment since the accident, crying aloud as he shrieks in torture, Allen, the doctors say, must die before sunrise. The wonder is that he should have lived thirty minutes after the acci- dent, with his skull reft in twain. The agony of the grief-str cken wife, who can do nothing to relieve his agony, has ren- dered the hospitalanything but a cheerful place to-night. Neither opiates nor pal- liatives of any kind seem to have any effect in alleviating the distress of the L1VES WIIH ¢ | dying laborer. e BULLET FOUND IN HIS BRAIN, John P. Kelly’s dwicide Accomplished After Days of Waiting. SAN JOSE, Car.,, Dec. 8.—An autopsy to-day uvon the body of John P. Kelly, the jeweler who tried to kill his wife and upon himself about ten days ago, showed that a 32- caliber bullet had penetrated the brain That Kelly lived for ten days with a bullet in his bramn is remarkable. The caliber of the ball is proof that the wound was inflicted by first supposed. An inquest will be held to-morrow. Keily will be buried by Mrs. Kelly, who is rapidly recovering. Kelly's will was filed for probate this alternoon by Policeman John Haley, who is named as executor. The value of the estate is placed at $5000. It consists of a lot of jewelry stored in San Francisco, valued at $4000; fixtures and tools in a store in thiscity, wearing apparel worth $266, and real estate near San Diego of unknown value. The property is Jeft to John Haley in trust for Mary and Nellie Kelly, his two small children, wita the exception of 10 cents, which is equally divided between James Kelly and Mrs. Annie Micnall, children by a former wife residing in San Diego.

Sehoch, the winner in 1893, by steady plodding, worked up into third ‘position, thus increasing the hopes of many who think he can reach the victory. Forster kept close on Reading and of the next division, Moore, Taylor, Smith and Pierce were tighting on even terms.

Twelve Workmen Reported Dead and N-arly as Many Injured. Corps of Physicians Dispaiched Frem Rediing to Care for th» | Unfortunates. REDDING, Car., Dec. 8.—A terrific ex- vlosion of gasolineand coal oil occurred at Keswick, five miles from this city, to-night at 8 o'clock. The scene of the disaster | was the oilhouse of the Mountain Mines Company, situated about 300 yards from the company’s big smelters and about 100 | yards from its otfice and store. Meagerre- | ports received by telephone stated that of | the twenty men at work around the oil- house twelve were killed outright and ail | of the others more or less injured. Eight | A physicians were at once dispatched from Redding to care for the injured. The cause of the explosion is not known here. Except for the first information re- ceived by telephone nothing could be | learned. At the mines there was the wild- est excitement, and the men in charge at the company’s office refused to give any | information in answertoanxiousinquiries from this city. The explosion was not heard in Red- ding, but several persons saw a greatsheet of flame shoot into the air ana illuminate the country for miles around. The dis- | aster occurred in a small wooden house, | in which was stored a large quantity of | gasoline, coal oil and oil used at the smelter. The building was completely wrecked, and timbers, cans and pieces of debris were thrown hundreds of feet from | the spot. None of the other buildinys of the company were destroyed or damaged, though the buildings containing the rock- | breakers were badly shaken, these struc- tures being justacrossa sixty-foot street | from the wrecked oilhouse. ANOTHEK BUD) KECUVERED, Belief That Seven Men . Instead of Six | Were Lost From ‘the San Benito. FOINT ARENA, CAv., Dec. 8.—The sea has given up one more of its victims. A | body was seen last night, but owing to the | rough nature of the coast it was not re- | covered until this morning. It was found abonrt three miles north of the wrecked | San Benito. Justice Ainslie beld an1in- quest upon the body, and the jury found that it was that of a boy about 16 vears | old, 5 feet 3 inches in height and weighing about 125 pounds, The face and head were badly mutilated. A flannel under- shirt and a pair of light shoes and stock- ings were all that remained of the cloth- | ing. 'll=‘||e description does not tally with that ot anv of the crew lost, and the body is believed to be that of a boy who | was not on the ship’s books, but who was working his way down. This con- | firms the opinion that seven lives were | lost instead of six. H February. ~<Cw OH m=—- —HIO-=m NEW TO-DAY. REMOVAL SALE!
