PoRK- PACKING IN LOUISVILLE. Tho
Louisville (Ky.) Courier Journal Of the
ith inst. gives the annexed concerning the
opening Of the pork-packing season in that
city. There arc thirteen 6rms in the city
engaged in this business. Six have COM
menced killing up to this time. Tho sea-
son begins very little later than usual,
owing 70 the weather, and the latter now Is
not favorable for operations In this line:
But the prospects are good Cor larger
business this season than tho last. Il ises-
timatod that il the calculations Of the pork
mon turn ont correct, about three hundred
thousand hogs will be killed in Louisville
before the season closes. There were only
about two hundred and forty thousand
slaughtered here last year. The packers Of
Louisville are now paying more for hogs
than Is being paid Al any other point. Pri-
ocs here range from to 40. One gentle
man bought several lots yesterday al 4ic.,
and fine lot at 4sc., and others are pur-
chasing at the same figures. The pork bu-
siness here differs from that Of other places
in the fact that there arc no rib sides put
up here. Rib sider are those in which tho
backbone If the hog being cut " two length
wiso, halfis left on each side. There il
no market here for these rib sides, and
therefore tho only brands prepared are
those known as clear rib and clear sides.

THE MOST FEARFUL CONFLA-
GRAFTON ON RECORD.
Further Particulars of the Horrible
Devastation of the Fire.
100, 900 People Houseless and Pro-
visionless.

CHICAGO, Oct. S,-12:30 a. m.-The most
terrible conhagration that ever occurred in
this city, broke out an hour and half ago.
and, having already swept over six entire
blocks, is still raging with almost unabated
fury. The fire started IN a large planning mill
situated between Clinton and Canal. and Van
Buren, and Jackson streets. about the centre
of the block formed by these streets. The
wind was blowing very fresh, and the flames
spread with almost incredible rapidity; in
few minutes the entire structure was a mass
of fire. The immediate vicinity is built up
mainly with small wooden tenement houses
and two story frame buildings occupied as
groceries, saloons, &c. The inmates of MANY
of these houses were startled from sIumber
and had barely time TO rush from the houses
in seanty attire, leaving their household goods
to destruction. In several instances children
were hastily wrapped in blankets and quilts
to break the force of their fall, and thrown
from second story windows to the ground
When the alarm sounded for this FIRE, another
Of considerable magnitude was burning on
Wells street, and several engines were neces-
sarily kept at work upon this. The rest OF
the engines were soon on the ground, but be-
fore they arrived the fire had spread over so
large an area, and was so rapidly spreading,
that their efforts seemed of little avail Be-
tween Canal street and the river were several
lumber yards, which are entirely DESTROYED.
At this hour the fire has made a clean sweep
from Van Buren street north two blocks to
Adams, and west TO Clinton, three blocks
from the river. The Wharves between Van
Buren, and Jackson streets are burning, and
the wood work Of the western approach TO the
Adams street bridge is destroyed. A large
coal ward containing thousands Of tons Of soft
coal. situated between the tracks Of the Chi
cago d Alton, and Pittsburg & Fort Wayne
Railroad tracks and the river, Is on fire and

Tbo chicago Fire.

Never, in the history of fires, has
such commotion been caused by that
destructive element, as by the great
fire which has desolated the city OF
Chicago. Every vein and artery
throughout the entire country was
pulsated with excitement and ap-
rehension until the announcement
was made that the path of the de-
stroyer had been stayed. And then
the great heart of the people re-
sponded to the cries for aid which
came up from the fated city, with
a generosity as commendabIe as lib
eral New York, Pittsburgh, Phila-
delphia, pledged 100000 each, Gin
cinnati and St. Louis responded lib
orally, but Louisville has out-done
all others by subscribing 100000
for relief. Buffalo, Evansville, Ind,
Wheeling, Va, Leavenworth. Colum-
bus, Cleveland, and every city of any
note in the land is responding liber-
ally and promptly to the calls for aid.
Here, an informal meeting was held,
on Tuesday morning, and the Mayor
at once had circulars issued and dis
tributed asking for contributions Of
provisions from the citizens for the
suffering citizens of Chicago. The
call was heartily responded tc, and
the citizens had the satisfaction OF
sending a car load of provisions to
Chicago, on Tuesday evening, to add
to the generalrelief fund.

THE ELECTIONS.
oHIo RHpURLIcAN RY ZOO

OHIO REPUBLICAN By $4,000
Pennsylvania Republican by 20, 600
We give up SO much of our space
to particulars of the great fire in
Chicago, that we necessarily have
but little room for election returns.
We therefore merely generalize.
OHIO
Has gone Republican by about
25,OOO majority on the State Ticket.
In Cugahoga County where an effort
was made by the disorganizers to
throw the election into the the hands
Of the Democracy, a largely increas-
ed majority on the general ticket re-
suited for the Republicans. On the
Legislative ticket full Republican
delegation was elected. Enough is
known from the different counties to
assure as of a majority in both the
Senate and House of Representa-
tives, and securing the returns of a
Republican o. S. Senator.
LATEsT.-Returus from 46 coun-
ties show Republican gains of 5,567
and indicates majority in The State
of over 10000, with a. majority in
the Legislature, on joint ballot, of 70
to Is. We gain Representatives in
Hancock and Hardin counties.
PENNSYLVANIA
Has given a Republican majority of
about 10000. The Legislature viii
be largely Republican.
LOCAL.
The Democratic ticket is elected
in this county by majorities ranging
from 25O to 700. In the city the
Democratic majority on the state
ticket is 1O2.
YoUNG's
Fast horse carried him successfully
through the contest, and he went
out Of the city and township with
majority of 63,against s. for Fabing,
two years ago. He gained in Riley
% over two years ago, and may be
savely set down as elected by $50
majority as against 81 two years ago.
PUTNAM
Has l3l majority in the city, having
ran ahead of his ticket in the First
Ward, where he was voted for by
many from whom better things
might have been expected. His
will reach about 400. The
of the Democratic ticket is
elected by somewhat larger MAORI
ties, except in the case of
J. p. ELDERKIN
Whose personal popularity gave him
a majority Of Z in the First Ward
where the Republican majority
