Fifty Valuable Horses Burned to Death
Loss SII5,OOO.
Shortly after nine O'Clock last evening q most
disastrous fire broke out In the stables OF the
Knickerbocker Ice Company, situated at the foot
OF East 12sth street. The building was wholly con-
structed OF wood, was three stories high and 800
feet deep. Within this structure were stabbed
seventy six valuable horses, fifty OF whom were
burned to death despite the efforts OF the companys
employees, the policemen and the flremen, who did
everything within their power to remove the poor
creatures from the maddening Names The fire,
as far as could be ascertained last evening" had q
very singular origin. Robert Brennan, a watch
man in the employ OF the company, says he was
on the ground floor trimming his lamp, when he
heard cracking noise overhead, and, looking ont
OF the window, discovered that the entire build

from the stable before everything within nifty Ieet
OF the building was one mass OF roaring, seething

doomed to almost instantaneous cremation made
smoke which swept from stall to stall before the
fire came down choking them beyond all power to

On the second moor of the stable was stored
$4,000 worth OF fresh hay, which had been put In
last Monday, and the general impression seemed
to be that tue ire was the result OF spontaneous

The fresh WIND which came rom the river car
ried the flames across to the East River Park
buildings, ali Of which were perfectly new and to-
tally destroyed.
The loss to the ice company will not fall short Of
$1,000 and the estimated loss OF the Park build
ings Is $4,000.
Seven loaded Ice barges were lying at the dock
close by the stables, and had It not been TOR the
steamer Morrlsania which towed them out Into
the stream, they, too, would have been destroyed.

LONDON, juno "a, 1874
The relations between Turkey and Persia are not
friendly.
1t appears that the Persian government has re-
fused to compel the return to Turkish territory Of
q tribe, numbering 1000 families which has been
subject to the Porte but escaped across the Per-
sian frontier, and that number OF Turks have
been seized and maltreated by band OF Persian
pilgrims. The Turkish government threatens to
force Persia to give up the persons who have
abused It's subjects and to surrender the revolving
tribe.
Unless an accommodation is speedily erected
the relations OF the two countries will become
critical

John Buckingham met with serious
injury. He was engaged in blasting in
the lower portion of the mine, and hav-
ing placed two cartridges in proper posi-

explosion had taken place, which shortly
followed; but it appears that but one Of
the cartridges had performed its work
the other, for some unexplained cause,
had not exploded, and just as Bucking-
ham was about proceeding to his work it
went off, the flying rocks striking him
with full force about the head and face,
cutting him badly. The most serious
wounds are fractdre of the skull aud a
deep cut on the forehead. His hair and
