THE FLAMES,

Tks Disastrous ConflagrstiOn Yesterday
Afternoon.
TIE terrible fire yesterday afternoon in the
square sosDded by Girard avenue, Poplar street,
Marshall 2sd Seventh, which spread through
almost The entire block of dwellings, carrying
terror and destruction to dozens of hemes, has
been given 10 the public, with almost all its
details, by the morning papers. This calamity
has no parallel in our local history for this year
1t is matter of impossibllity to arrive at the
exact loss entailed by such disastrous eonfa-
grafton, and we are compelled to be satisfied
with rough estimate OF the sufferers. There
are some things about this dreadful event that
want explanation. Why was 1t that, when alarm
boxes were in the immediate vicinity Of the
scene of the fire, policeman travelled to the
Twelfth District Station-house, at Tenth and
Thompson streets, to strike the alarm, thus per-
mitting the flames to gain uncomfortable
headway and how was it that cur new Paid
Fire Department was so dilatory in getting
upon the ground and into active operation We
expect something better of 1t.
So far as we are able to ascertain, the losses
are as fOiiOws:-

Railway Matters.
The Times states that the Missouri Railroad is
about to pass into the hands OF new owners,
with NJ. X. Jessup at the head. The plan Is to
bid the railroad off at a sale, to take place in
August, under the second NOR tgage, and thus
wipe out the third mortgage; The $S,OOO OOO
of stock and floating debt, which amounts to
81, 0O0, 600 or 90, 900, 900 more.
If the scheme works well, the Illinois, Mis-
souri, and Kansas Association will, says the
Times, purchase the road with $50, 600 600 caPi-
tai, and paying dividend upon that sum for
$1,000, 900 or $S, 0O0, 900, or little more than
third of its real value.

HIGHWAY ROBBERS.

Daring Attempt to Rob n BaltInorean-
The Thieves Captured and Quiekly Dis
posed of. ,..---
A Baltlmorean, named Daniel Finn, on his way
from New York, arrived at the depot at Thirty
first and Market streets at about half-past
twelve last night He was met In the depot by
two notorious thieves named james Smith and
John Burns.
These fellows took him over 10 a tavern opp0-
site and proposed to treat him, which PROPOSE
ton be accepted They then asked him to take
a walk, and he complied. After saunterng
around for while the thieves pretended that
they desired to go up Ludlow street. aud Mr..
Finn accordingly went with them. When they
arrived at lonely spot one OF the men seized
Mr.. Finn, ran him against fence, and tripped
him up.
They both fell, and during the scufle the
other party busted himself in trying to get at
the poeket-book of the Baltimorean, who dur.
ing this time was fighting with vigor and
screaming .'help," police, etc. Officer
Mcdonald, of the Sixteenth district, heard the
cries, and ran mp in time to prevent the robbery.
The two fellows scampered off, but the po-
liceman arrested both of them by prompt
production of his revolver. Officer Urian
coming up the highway robbers were taken to
the station house. Mr.. Finn being powerful
man, the thieves did not succeed in getting at
his pocket book. The prosecutor wished to
return TO his native city; but Lieutenant Leech
detained him until this morning.
The Lieutenant brought the prisoners in this
morning, had them arraigned before the Grand
Jury; Mr.. Finn testified, a true bill was found,
and the scoundrels will be tried this afternoon
in the Court of Quarter Sessions.
Many robberies of this kind are perpetrated in
the neghborhood of railway depots, aud the
thieves generally escape justice because the pros
ecutors will not remain in town to appear against
them,

Annual Report of the Prison Agent-His
Mission and How He Accompanies 1t.
We this morning received the annual report
of Prison Agent William j. Mullen, rendered to
the Philadelphia Society for Alleviating the
Miseres of Public Prisons. He says-
He has endeavored to make it his constant care
TO do what he could to assist the authorities In dts
pensDg Justice. II the abors OF the agent have not
accomplished all that could have been desired, I'm
have been incarcerated, and have now been liber-
ated by his management, whom he has been tnstru-
mental In releasing from the beginning, he takes
consolation in consciousness that he has left no
thing undone, Intentionally, that 1t was in his power
to do that would be productive OF good results And
II in disposing OF these cases by his interference he
has succeeded In meeting the expectations aud ap-
proval OF his fellow.citzens, his highest ambition
has been reached, and he Will feel happy.
he has been instrumental In releasing from prison
2707 persons of this number there were SO children,
and 56 insane. All these were court cases, and the
most OF them were innocent OF what they were &C
cused Of whose real oenses, upon investigation,
were found to be OF so trivial a nature as not TO
ber, many who were destitute at the time they
left the prison. were supplied with homes or
employment. - .ss2
The whole number of persons released from
the eighteen years OF his agency has been 2 394 at
saving to the county OF S272,49eST. These facts
taken in pecuniary point OF view alone, would
seem to make the mission one OF importance.
INCITING TO RIoT.-There was an election at
TWenty-first and Ellsworth street last night to
decide the location of a precinct-house, and
James Winters, who was rather the worse for
