the fire spread rapidly along and through
the upper stories, some 200 feet on Green
WITCH street. The building extended
through some 200 feet TO Church street.
Two additional alarms were sent out for
engines from up town. The flames con-
tinued to increase, and at this hour, 11:30,
the entire roof which is Mansard, on the
Greenwich side of the building, and two
upper stories have been burned. A bakery
adjoining was also burned. Several
tenement houses are in imminent
danger, but the fremen have evidently
now obtained centred of the fire and will un-
doubleday keep it confined to the govern
ment store houses. The building filed
with valuable goods and those not destroyed
by fire are undoubtedly rIined by water.
The loss will be great. A heavy brick wall
only prevented the fire from working
through TO Thames street which is filed
wi h tenement houses, crowded with poor
Irish families, among whom the utmost
CONSERVATION prevailed. A large stone
school house of Trinity parish escaped, al
though the flames at one time were within
twenty feet OF tie rear portion Of the build
ing. The warehouses are in charge OF
W. 81. DAZZLING, Government Appraiser.
No fires have been used in the building
since last winter, and the fire tonight is
supposed to be caused by spontaneous
combustion.

NEW YORK.
A Stumbling Game,


NEW YORK, July 30.-Edward Rarcke
s. Co., importers Of glassware, etc., whose
books have been seized by Custom House
officers, and against whom suits have been
commenced to recover penalties for alleged
violations of the revenue laws, assert that
all violations of law were committed by
one Clark, uho was in charge of the bust
ness here during the absence of the firm
in Europe; that while be altered charges at
the Custom House, he made proper en-
tries in the books of the firm, and that
when a sufficient number of these alter
atoms had taken place to warrant q good
case against the firm, be voluntarily re-
tired from their employ, having previously
arranged with the Custom House officers
to get one-fourth the amount recovered
from the firm by compromise or convic-
ton.
How Boss Tweed Escaped indictment.
A report is current that William III.
Tweed has escaped the new indictment
through stupid blpnder or design on the
part of some official. Andrew j. Carney
testified before the Grand Jury that he COL
lected a frauduleIt bill from the city fer
Sl26,7O7, aud that he collected the bill
through Ingersoll, to whom he gave on the
same day, his check for S95, 900. On this
and other testimony concerning the parties
implicated, the Grand Jury ordered an in
dictment against Tweed, Ingersoll and
William E King, Tweed's private secreta-
ry, but when the bill of indictment was re-
turned for the signature of the foreman, the
name of Tweed was found omitted, and
the mistake, if such it was, was not recti-
fed. Ingersoll and King having fed, the
new Indictment is worthless.
Pauper Immigrants Returned.
The Commissioners of Emigration have
complied with the request of the Rouman-
ian Society to return to Roumania five i'm
migrants who are unable to support them
selves here, and think the Consul at Bu-
charest is deserving Of censure for permit
ting such emigration.
Fictitious Cotton Sales.
An attempt was made to-day at the Cot
ton Exchange to pass resolution contain
ing a penalty for making fictitious sales.
It was voted down by large majority amid
great excitement.
Mississippi and Gulf Canal.
The Board of Officers of the corps of

Heavy Damage by Rain.
The damage by rain yesterday at New
ark was over 100000. Nearly all the
Easements in the city were flooded. Several
buildings were damaged and some set on
fire by the lightning. One house was
blown down and completely demolished.
Two grocery stores were ruined by the
flood; also a shoe store. Factorys had ma
chinery damaged. Hundreds of people in
the lower part of the city were driven out
of cellars, several having a narrow escape
from drowning

Five Men Burned TO Death.

FIVE Men burned 10 D0htn'
CHICAGO, July 30.--A terrible accident
occurred last evening at the North Chicago
Rolling Mills, situated on the extreme
northwestern suburbs of the city. About a
dozen workmen were engaged in removing
an imperfect blast from one Of the furnaces
when suddenly, as large mass Of Clinkers
was detached, making an opening in the
furnace, there rushed out an immense vol
ume of gas which coming in contact with
the outer air exploded, filing the place with
q sheet of flame which completely envel-
oped eight of the workmen. Five of them,
James Meek, Mike Holley, John Butt, Jas.
Schsfier and Patrick Manney, were so badly
burned that not one Of them is expected to
recover. Three others, Owen Corbett,
Thos. Conner and Nicholas Schevelih, were
seriously burned. The loss to the mill
company will be considerable, Tut the
amount is not yet ascertained.

WASHINGTON.
The Coming Debt statement.

WASHINGTON, July S0.-The public debt
statement to be issued the first of August
will not report the full amount of new SIS
ISSUED and 5-20's redeemed, for the reason
that all bonds redeemed have to pass
through tho books of the Register, Auditor
and Comptroller before being credited to
the Treasurer of the United States, from
whose books the debt statement is made
out. It takes time, and more than Usual
now that so many clerks are away on a
summer leave of absence, reducing the
clerical force which, when full, is just sutfi-
Gent for ordinary current business. Al
though the syndicate received and paid for
$5O,O00,000 of new SIS, but little more than
$SO,0OO,O00 can appear in the debt state
ment.
Return OF Cancelled Bonds.
WASHINGTON, July S0.-SeVeral Treas
ury officials who went to London some
weeks ago, with bonds for syndicate, re-
turned this morning with large number of
cancelled bonds sent to the Treasury by the
syndicate. ....r
Since the FIRST of June the largest amount
of business ever done since the organization
of the Post Office Department in the man
Ofacture and shipment of stamps, stamped
envelopes, wrappers, etc, took place. This
increase is attributed to tie abolition of the
Thanking privilege. Over million postal
cards were shipped Monday from the fac
tory to postmasters throughout the coun-
try.

SENATOR C4RPEY1EES BACK PAY.

Senator Carpenter has prepared, in the form
of a speech, an elaborate defense OF his con-
duct in taking the back pay; and it seems TO
us worth notice, partly because it is an ingeni-
Gus, not to say plausible, presentment OF
his side of the case, and partly because Mr..
Carpenter is one of tho best and one of the
frankest Of the patriots who have consented
to enrich themselves by drawing double salary
for single service. There are Congressman
who took the money secretly and then
lied about it. There are Congressman
who voted against tie bill when they
knew it was going TO pass, and drew
their share Of tho plunder with surprising
promptness as soon as it became law. Nay,
we have reason to believe that some honor
able gentlemen caused it to be announced in
the newspapers that they had turned their
back pay over to the Treasury, when it was
all the time snug in their pockets. Mr. Car
penter, however, is manly enough to do q
discreditable action openly, and to avow that
he is not ashamed Of it. He finds that Con-
eressmen have done such things before; and
if tho whole country is clamoring on account
of their action now, that Is because :" the
Credit MobiHer investigation of last Winter
$50 diseased the public mind, and produced
"such q morbid public morality, that things
(which arc perfectly right arc regarded as
"wrOngp
If there is any such thing as morbid
"public morality" just now, it certainly does.
not take the form Of over-scrupulOusness. 1t
ia not rife TO any dangerous extent in Massa-
chusetts, where Mr. BENJAMIN ]. Butler seems
to be in fair way of becoming Governor
nor in Philadelphia, where tho dominant
party has just committed an enormous fraud
upon the ballot-box nor even, we may say,
in Wisconsin, where Mr. Carpenter defends at
a public meeting transaction which no po-
litical convention thus far has had the courage
to pass by without censurc. That thero are
