The weather could not have been more
favorable for an outdoor demonstration.
The air was as balmy as in June, and the
streets were in excellent condition Tor
marching. To make as big show as
possible arrangements were made for the
Tree transportation to and from the city
Of all the men and boys in the neighbor-
ing towns who were willing to carry
torches. The country was secured for
horsemen and vehicles, and every effort
made TO swell the crowd. Every
thing thus being favorable, large
delegations were present from MARITIME
FerrJ, Bridgeport, West Wheeling, Bel
laire, Benwood, and even Moundsyille:
All carried torches, but only one club APP
peared in uniform, and that Bellaire
club.
The procession formed on Chapline

and boys in vehicles, making a total Of
about 1870 in the procession. Il would
appear from this that one.half Of the
Rsqister's $4,000 torches" were left in the
club rooms for want OF more men and
boys to carry them.
But the horrid din they made Howl

passed by, like one Of those horrible pro:

the Commune. Many in the line were

without assistance, were left behind. a
gang Of guerillas, holding high carnival
after successful foray, would have been
a respectable gathering. as compared
with the rabble that filled our
streets on Saturday evening. We
venture to assert that no such scene
OF disorder and confusion was ever
before witnessed in this city. There
were many respectable persons in the
procession, who did what they could to
preserve order, and met with as much
success az il they had Undertaken to pro
nounce benediction in Hades.

FIREAT Smiths BREwERY.-About l
o'clock Saturday morning the southeast
side OF Smiths brewery, under the edge
Of the roof, was discovered to be on fire.
A spark from the stove pipe had blown
under the caves just above the drying
room, and set fire TO the loose material
about the spout. The Atlantic steamer
was first on the ground, and made an at
tachmcnt to the plug in front Of Redman's
machine shop. BY this time the roof over
the engine room was in flames, and the
Atlantic went TO work upon 1t and in a
short time succeeded in saving it.
The United and Vigilant engines
had arrived Ia the meanwhile,
but before they could get their
streams to bear on the FIRE the brewery
hose had been brought into requsition
and the fire in the drying room was ex-
tinguished. Itwas necessary TO cut away
the inside lining OF the roof 10 get at the
flames, and the shingles were chi through
from above to admit water from that side.
A quantity Of hops In an adjoining room,
worth probably $500, and about ten BUSH
els Of malt were injured by the water.
Outside Of this the damage was not heavy,
and is fully covered with insurance.

Agency-The Issue OF Rations
stopped.
CHEYENNE, October 21.-Advices from
Red Cloud Agency, Goth, are as follows :
Immediately after the Commissioner left
the agency recently, the Indians moved,
and camped about twenty-five miles
away, sending in only the squaws and a
few bucks on issue days to draw rations.
They were so far away that no informa-
ton could be had as 10 their movements
or doingS, and doubtless many Of them
were of on raiding and plundering ex-
peditions. Word was sent to them by
Captain Smith, the Acting United States
Agent, to come in to the agency. To this
they paid no attention. Meanwhile Gen:
Crook and several OF his staff arrived
there, and word was Immediately sent to
these Indians that no more rations would
be issued till they came. into the agency
where they belonged, and remained.
Yesterday was issue day, and very few
Indians were present. Red Cloud was
present, but none Of his band, and he re-
fused to receive rations. The ultimatum
sent them will not be receded from in the
smallest degree, and, unless it is COM
piled with trouble is anticipated. Lieut..
Chase, with 100 cavalry, left Fort Rus
sci yesterday to intercept the raiding
parties operating in the vicinity Of the
Ching.
