count Of clerical assistance. This causes
much dissatisfaction among applicants
The Commissioner recommends additions
to the clerical force. Legislation is asked
to define sufficient proof of pensioners,
widows, so as 10 make evidence of eo.
habitation sufficient to drop pensioners
from the rcils. Large numbers of pen.
stoned widows are known TO be liy.
ing WITH men whom the department can.
not Prove to be their lawful husbands
hence no authority exists to drop their
names. During last year 675 applications
for bounty land were made, and 407 war.
rants were issued, calling for SO $50 acres
of land
The Commissioner recommends the
adjustment of the present system of ex-
aiming surgeons and the appointment of
sixty first-class surgeons, at fixed salaries
who will give their entire time to the
service. He thinks this a measure OF
economy and one which will facilitate the
payment of pensioners. Fifteen hundred
and thirty claims were investigated by
special agents, of which 800 were found
TO be fraudulent. Two hundred and forty
three pensioners were dropped on evil
dence of fraud, resulting in saving
nearly $3.50, 600. Over $4,000 were re-
covered from those who have been
drawing pensions fraudulently. The
Commissioner thinks the knowledge
that an efficient Secret Service exists pre-
vents large amount OF fraudulen. claims
being presented, and recommends the or.
ganization and enlargement Of the service
on the plan now in operation in the Treas
ury and Postoffice Departments. Congress
il recommended to authorize the annual
publication of lists of pensioners residing
In each county, publication to be made in
the paper having the largest circulation
and that printed lists be posted in court
rooms and other prominent places, which
would expose many cases of fraud.-N.Y.

The Commissioner of Pensions has
finished his annual report, which shows
that there are on the pension rolls 234 1921

pendent relatives, l04, 6S5; survivors .,

per cent. Of the soldiers of 1912 died last

The Virgins City Fire.
SAN Francisco. Oct. Is.

Owing to the destruction Of the tele-
oranh Office and the press OF private dis
patches over the lines it has been diff
cult to obtain aay connected information
concerning the Virginia fire. The follow
ing. however, is undoubtedly correct as
far as il goes:
The IRE broke cut about daylight in a
dwelling on A street, near Taylor, point
at about the southwestern limit of the
business and thickly-settled portion OF the
city. 1t spread rapidly, extending east
ward toward the ravine in which are
situated the works and mills of several
prominent mines. Reaching as far as +
street A,orthward, the flames crossed
Union and Sutton streets, covering
a space of about ten blocks, COM
prising, in the words of one dis
patch. almost every decent building in
town. As the fire worked up G street, the
Offices of the Terrisorial Enterprise and
Chronicle were destroyed. Piper's Opera
House was next in flames, and it became
evident that the railroad depot and hoist
ng-works of the Consolidated Virginia
were in danger. The water-supply was
inadequate, and the engines OF little use.
Recourse was had to blowing up build
ms. IL WdS w Idttg AonEsEAs ula Ah @
few minutes the depot and hosting works
were on fire. The latter were recently
completed at an expense of several hun
dred thousand dollars, and were the finest
on the Comstock lode.
Continuing to the north and east, the
partially completed mill OF the California
mine and the Consolidated Virginia mill
were soon In flames, which spread still
further north to the Ophir hoisting-works,
DESTROYING them also, which Is about the
limit Of destruction in that direction. the
fire dying out for want OF fuel. From
TAYLOR street, near which the fire origi
mated, it spread southwark against the
wind, destroying the branch Bank OF Cali
fornia and Wells-Fargo's express office,
and everything else in its line. AT this
point the Gould 81 Curry works were in
imminent danger but were fortunately
saved. In short, nearly the entire business
portion of the town Is in ashes. Hotels,
churches, county buildings, newspaper,
telegraph and express offices are all swept
away Over 10000 persons are homeless.
The wind is piercing, and much suffering
is anticipated before temporary shelter can
be prepared. 1t is impossible at present
TO conjecture the amount Of the loss.
The destruction OF the mills and hoist
ing works above referred TO will probably
entail loss of 81 ,000, 900 within radius
Of a few hundred feet. Fortunately the
shafts Of both the Ophir and Consolidated
Virginia were bulk-headed, and the fire
was kept out of the mines. The Ophir
men say that possibly their loss may bt
less than at first supposed, as the building
was Of light frame and might burn with.
out destroying the machinery. The loss
Of buildings and merchandise in the city
must be very great, although covered TO q
great extent by insurance. 1t is not known
10 what extent the mills and hosting.
works were insured, except in the case Of
the Ophir, where the loss Is placed al
$780, 900 to $500, 600; insured for $60,00(
in this city.
Knoxville journal. [volume] (Knoxville, Iowa) 1874-1986, 1875-11-11
SAN Francisco, Oct. n.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct II.
An additional special To the CAL from
Virginia says: At present 1t Is impossible
to state the loss Of life. Two men were
killed on G street by a falling wall. There
are numberless rumors of other casualties
Hundreds of families are homeless and
hungry. The school houses, the only pub.
lie buildings left, are open TO them, but II
immediate relief Is not extended great
suffering will ensue. Utter demoraliZa
ton reigns In the city. MeE, women and
children wander about the deserted streets
seeking shelter The surrounding hills
are dotted with camp-fires. A few saloons
remain, and supplies of liquor have not
been lacking, and the streets are alive with
a drunken mob. The military are patrol
ling the city for the protection OF prop
erty.
Dispatches received this evening give
further details of the Virginia City con.
fiagration, and confirm previous reports al
to the extent of the calamity. The seen,
during the progress Of the fire Is beyond
description. The wind blew gale, driv
| ing the cinders and flames far In advance
| tenpts 10 check the progress Of the fire
Iutilt. poNuCi WIS Lively u5Sa "
blow up the buildings, and frequent heavy
| explosions shook the earth. The roof OF
the Catholic church was blown 100 feet in
| the air, leaving the bare walls standing.
BY eight o'clock all excitement was at its
height. The streets were filled with peo-
pie, teamsters struggling through the fire,
fighting at presentable points; women
sbrieking their cries of despair; curses OF
enraged men the roar of flames, dull re-
ports Of explosions as building after build
ing took fire; the heavy thud and crash
Of falling walls the snap Of bursting
iron bars and doors; the howl of the gale
all went to make up scene of indie
scribable horror. BY ten a. m. the Con-
solidated Virginia hosting works build
ing and mill were wrapped In flames, and
soon fell. The new California stamp-mill
then fell prey to the fire, which swept Tn
whiting a few rods Of the G. IL G. hoist.
ing works, when the veerlng OF the wind
turned the flames and carried them to the
Ophir works, which soon fell In. The
shaft-timbers caught fire, but were extin-
guished without doing much damage. BY
eleven q. IN. the flames had spent their
fury; the wind died away, leaving bed
of smoldering ruins three-quarters of a
mile long and half mile wide.
No definite advices received yet as to
the extent Of damage 70 the several mining
properties involved. The total loss by fire
is now placed at from 5000, 900 to $5,-
600, 900.
