CHICAGO, October 2.-The total
amount subscribed for relief by the fire

million dollars. The amount now on

Work on the Government buildings
is now being crowded along day and

in filling iu the foundation with con-
crete and l25 men and twenty teams
are employed in removing the debris on
the surface. The sstouishingly large
sum of 5000 per snuum has been
offered by party for the use, for adVer-
tising purposes, OF the fence to be erect
ed about the Government block. There
is q great deal of competition for the
control of this fence. The Government
first rented the fence around the New
York postofice for $500 per annum,
which was then regarded as a large
sum.

in support Of a motion for new trial

grounds of newly discovered evidence Of

she filed denial to all his statements.
The affidavits on both sides are replete
with the most disgusting stuff, utterly

the first time that his wife admits to one
Henry Turner, in letter to him, that
she had proved false to her marriage

guilty ofthe crimes, and that she loathed
