CHICAGO, May 19.-About three hum
tlred men were thrown out of employ
ment by the burning of several OF the
shops Of the Chicago, Burlington and
Quincy railroad, at Aurora, Illinois, yes
terday. All the extensive woodwork
shops, the stOrehOuse, the blacksmith
shops, and several contingent offices,
were totally destroyed, together with
the greater part of their cOntents-the
small tools, and a few of the lightest
pieces of machinery only being saved.
In the paint-shop where two Pullman
coaches of the Kansas City and St.
Joseph and the International railroads
another Pullman was on the outside
without trucks-a1 were destroyed.
There were also five passenger-coaches,
three new fTeight and two mail and ex-
press cars destroyed in the building
Eight loaded freight cars, portion of q
train for the west, standing on a side
track, were also consumed. The stock
of lumber was probably the largest and
most valuable in the State, and is by
far the largest portion of the loss, con-
sisting largely of hardwood and clear
pine, the selection of the last five years.
The buildings destroyed were the or
iginal wooden ones-none of the new
stone buildings, constructed in thor
oughly fire-prOOf manner, being con-
sumed. The machinery destroyed was of
the most approved and modern make,
and extremely valuable. The company
will at once proceed to FIREPLACE the burned
buildings with substantial fire-prOOf
structures. Exact loss not yet ascer-
tanned, but generally estimated at two
hundred and fifty thousand dollars. AL
fully covered by insurance, but in what
companies is not known.
South American News-AnoGher ReVO-
luton.
PANAMA, May 7-Ex-President Car
reaso arrived in Panama on the fifth
from Costa Rica, and the revolution
has broken out afresh. The evening
following the arrival of Carreaso, he de-
clared that the national troops acted
reasonably by interfering in the late
revolt, which deposed Neira, and de-
clared his intention Of disarming them
and compelling them to leave the State.
The next day, the seventh, at half-past
two o'clock, fighting with shell and
small arms commenced in the plaza of
San Jose, by the State troops advancing
upon the national forces. After a fight
of two hours the former were repulsed,
ninety being captured. Both claim that
they attacked for safety. The fighting
continued, with a slight intermissiOn,
until nine o'clock at night, when Care
asO wished the consuls to arrange some
plan for peace, but they refused to inter-
fere. The United States steamer Pensa-
cola arrived during the afternoon, and
the foreigners here are protected at
the American consulate by fifty men
from the Pensacola and Tuscarora, while
one hundred and fifty men from the
same vessels guard the property of the
Panama railroad company. This morn
ing firing was re-Opened, and continued
with slight intermissiOn till one o'clock,
when truce was agreed upon. Captains
Urea and MudOisa, of the national
forces, were killed, and colonel and a
lieutenant-colonel wounded. President
Cervera is wounded. 1t is impossible TO
give the number of killed and wounded
at this time. The residents who have
not availed themselves of the men-of-
war have fled from the city, and are in
the bushes. President Neira, since his
Punishment, has issued an address to the
national troops, calling upon them to
maintain the dignity Of the state. The
trouble is now over. Colonel Juan Per
vet, the former prefect of Gallon, has
been designated provisional president
until General Neira can be recalled.
The news from Chill is that a party
of Fuegean Indians made raid on the
cattle at Freshwater bay, but were re-
pulsed with the loss of ten killed.

ship Mary, lost at sea, was shot by JUS
tice Of the peace.
