KEYsER, w. VA, April 8

KEYsER, w. VA, April 8.
Special to the Register.
Between three and four o'clock Friday
morning, an unoccupied dwelling house
IN Piedmont was discovered to be on
fire. The citizens hastily gathered, and
heroicslly struggled to stay its progress,
but without success until about 6 o'clock.
The following houses were consumed:
Peter Lanans, K. o. Buffers, Mrs. Har-
tells dwellings, Con Moran's dwelling,
saloon and ten-pin alley, Robert Ravens
crafts dwelling. Another building be-
tween the last one named and Thrssher's
was pulled down.
The extent of the damage at this
writing cannot be stated with any GER
tainty, nor the insurance. The loss cannot
fall short of ten thousand dollars. Par
ties seem confident that the fire was
started by an incendiary, as the house
in which it was first discovered had not
been occupied for some time ANON.

and IN favor Of the peace policy. The

Massacre OF the Passengers and Crew
of tie Steamer George n. Wright.

SAN Francisco, April 6.-Relstive TO
the recent search for the murderers OF
the passengers and crew OF the steamer
Geo. S. Wright, by the British gun boat
Rocket, the following press dispatch was
received from Victoria: The most sor.
rowful page in the story of the wreck OF
the steamer Geo. S. Wright in 1874, re.
mains to be written.
The CoLon,st has few additional par
ticulars OF the massacre of u portion OF
her passengers and crew by the Indians
and the destruction OF the Indian village.
The officers learned enough TO convince
them that several of the shipwrecked
persons who got ashore were murdered by
the natives. The story is to the purport
that a number of whites came ashore in
a boat; that they had with them many
papers and large sum OF money in gold
and silver. They bargsined with
party of Indians who We're bound to Vic
toria to take them To Fort Rupert Tor 81
each. The white men were without arms
and when night came and ali were
asleep. the Indians murdered them
and threw their bodies into the sea, after
stripping them of everything OF value.
The money in the box was divided by
the savages, who then came on To Victoria
and spent the coin. An Indian woman
SAWS she picked up the head OF white
man on the beach at Cape Caution a ie|
months alter the wreck and WAS told to
put il down again and say nothing about
il The officers found no property be-
longing to the Wright, except parts OF
the wreck, which probably drfted ashore.
With respect to the destruction
of the village, Sergeant Bloomfield land.
ed with three others from the Rocket, and
demanded four men who are suspected
of completely in the murder. The
Indians came out armed, sud refused 10
give up the men. The party then Sc
cured two OF the suspected savages
and made tor the boat. They were
fred on, but got back to the ship safely.
Captain Harris then gave the tribe
six hours in which TO surrender the other
two men. After the lapse OF six hours,
he extended the time three hours longer.
He then fired blank cartridges and the
Indians run away. The viIlage Was
then shelled and afterwards burned. The
two men were secured. No one was
killed
