BoSToN. Sep, 10.
The Herald has The following spec
iaI dispatch from Fall RIVER: About
I O'Clock A. N an alarm of fire was
sounded, but, from causes as yet unex-
planned, the location could not be
properly understood, consequently the
firemen did not reach the vicinity OF
6raniIe Mill No. located on Twelfth
aud Bedford streets, until the flames,
had III lde fearful Roadway. Finding
themselves una bic to cope with the
flames, second laYm was stuck,
and The balance of Tie department
was brought 20 the spot, but in the
meantime the results haG been heart
reading in the extreme.
As far as can be learned under the
present excitement and turmoil the
fire origina ed at the tower in the
fourth story. and an attempt was
made 20 extinguiSh it with pals of
water, bat Intellectually. During this
endeavor door leading to the spool
room, which open; south OH the
tower staircase, had been closed TO
keep the help back aud prevent 9
panic, but Rhcn The flames had gain
ed such strength that it was found
impossible TO qucnch ihem the escape
of the girls had been cut off.
TIE FRIGHTENED AND TERRIFIED
CREATURES,
with roaring fam;s on the lower
staircase. rushed IN body for the
fire escapes, but the dense volumes
of smoke that poured into the room
and biting flames forced them to the
northeast end Of the apartment. at
which end unfortunately, there were
no means of escape. Many in the
meantime had become suffocated,
and others. prefer-ing death By falls
ing to the ground, sprang rocklessly
from the windows. and we're picked
up mangled, bleeding, dead and
dying.
The flames soon worked their way
upward, and at this writing there is
scarcely possibility of saving a
stone of the late beautiful structure.
The excitement in this city was ter
ribie, every mill emptying its con-
tents to swell thesympathizing crowds.
All the medical men in the city were
promptly on hand. Mattresses.

paraphernaIia of a hospital were

is certain that nearly thirty or forty
lives-neariy all girIs-have been
lost. while the list Of wounded is
probably as great, There is no
means Of reaching any actually
definite Information, but the above is
as close upon the facts as can be OBJ
tanned at present.
The Granite Mills were Incorporated
in 1868, and mill No. had 36.64o

what the president Proposes.
[St. Louis Republican. !

1t seems that the president thinks
u new policy is called for by the
humbled condition in which the aG-
ministration and the republican party
find themselves, and Il sketch of the
new programme is given from Wash
ington ION the very highest author
ity.n First, then, We are told there
is no thought on the part Of the pres
ident or any of his adv sers of making
change in the personnel of the cab
met, as the president is perfectly sat
isfied with every member of the pres
ent administration Second, there
will be no II odiIication of the presi-
dents financial views, as set forth in
the veto message of last session and in
the Jones memorandum. The presi-
dent is still in favor of specie resump-
ton, and will probably recommend a
repeal of the legal-tender act. Third,
he thinks a general scheme of inter
nal improvements OF the seabOard,
the lakes and the Mississippi river
would be a good thing.
