The loss Of the hosting works and
mills mentioned is alone a calamity
from which the city will not recover for
more than year TO come: but when it
is considered that nearly every principal
business house in town is also DESTROYED,
some idea Of the blow it Is to the Con-
stock may be imagined. The spread Of
the flames was so rapid that nothing but
few articles Of wearing apparel. jewels,
etc. were saved by the fleeing inmates
Of the burning buildings. These are
scattered over the hIllsides west Of town,
and piled up at different points along
the streets.
BUILDINGS BLOWN Up.
The fight against the fire was rs viCor-
Gus a. could be made, no effort being
spared to stay its progress. The aid Of
powder was called in, and buildings
blown up AZ different points toward the
north and east Of the city. but the flames
leaped over all obstacles, and places
which one minute were hundreds Of feet
distant from the fire were the next
sheet Of flame. 1t appeared for . long
time as If the new { / c hosting
works, down III Chinatown, were doomed,
but desperate and successful ettor, was
made TO save them.
IRE AES IN THE MINES
We're, so far as is known, all got ont
and among the general disaster we are
pleased to state that We have not any
loss OF life TO chronicle. OF course all
particulars cennot be learned in a few
hours, and it is possible, and even prob-
able, that ont of the thousands who
were rendered homeless few may have
been too late in attempting to escape.
ISCENpIARIEs.
1t is reported that one man was seen
attempting 10 set fire to some buildings,
but as nothing Of the kind came within
our observation, and no one could give
description of him, tho rumor may he
without any foundation. For the credit
OF humanity, we hope that such was not
the case. Fuller accounts will be given
at another date, together with what will
be done for the relief of the sufferers by
the charitable here and elsewhere.
In writing the above we failed to men
ton that tho Gold Hill Fire Department
Turned out and rendered all the aid pos
sible. the steamer of Yellow Jacket No.
2, being stationed at the Gould 4 Curry
hoisting works during the first of the
confsgration, and subsequently at diff
terent points.
LATER-Two MEN KILLED-TuE LIVES OF
TWO CHILDREN SAVED.
We learn that Mike Malone, of Gold |
Hill, was killed by falling wall on
Union street, between ID and c streets. |
