trous fire occurred at o'clock TINS morn
ing, by which, about forty houses were
destroyed, and about the same number OF
families are rendered homeless. The fire

blowing at the time and the flames spread
with lightning rspiditysnd communlca-
ted to Esplin's lumber yard and
planning mill in the rear. An
immense quantity of lumber was stored
on Esphn's premises, and the flames
goon increased rapidly, sending forth
sparks into the surrounding streets,
which contained small wooden houses.
The fire spead from the lumber piles to
a number of sheds belonging to tenement
houses in the rear of E:plin's lumber
ward. On William, Duke, Dalhousi and
Nazareth streets stood a who.e block OF
light wooden tenement houses, and with
the high winds which prevailed, better
finder. box could not be found. Maxwelis
planning mill took fire, and change in
the wind carried the flames over to the
eastern side of the street, and also in the
direction of William street. 1t cut its
way through to Ottowa street, licking up
all the fImsy houses in its advance, and
only stopped at Nazareth street, when
il reached Oteowa street, where the hre-
men made determined effort TO arrest It's
progress. The flames went on to Nazareth
street and at one time threatened TO de-
YOUR the buildings on Duke street, but
only four were consumed on that street.
The loss was $4,000. The fire was got
under control about o'clock. Many OF
the people burnt out are in poor clrcum'
stances and are mostly uninsured.

The Tuscarawas Road.

This evening there will be meeting
of the citizens at the Second Branch
Council chamber, to take action regard
ing the Tuscarswas railroad extension.
There has rs yet been but $4,000 of
the $4,000 asked subscribed by this city,
and the object is to secure subscriptions
for the remaining $4,000. The compile
ton of the road to this city is one of
great moment, and will be of incslculable
bsnefit to Wheeling. But knowing, rs
we do, that the nervous system OF our
citizens are such as to be shocked at the
shrill whistle of locomotive, and that
they to q great extent countenance the

and quietly repcsed for years, we doubt
If the amount can be raised, but hope at
the same time that our doubts are ground

The South Side Tramp Gang.

Yesterday morning, before daylight,
Captain R pley and force made a tour OF
the Eighth ward, in search Of the gang
of tramps that have of late infested that
section of the city. The places where
the tramps were known to have been in
the habit of sleeping were visited, but no
traces of the gang could be found. 1t is
thought that they have been reading the
ne Yspapers, and, deeming it unhealthy
to remain in that locality, have sought
fresh fields and pastures new. Although
no arrests were made, the people of the
Eighth ward can feel secure with the
knowledge that the gang has disappear.

An install ce of the deprsvity OF the
Wheeling small boy, and the desire pos.
sessed by him for intoxicating liquors,
was forclbly illustrated yesterday. In
front of saloon an empty beer keg had
been placed to await the arrival of
the brewery wagon, and two little rss-
calls of perhaps eight or ten years
OF age, noticing the key, seized 1t, and
while one of the boys held it up so that
the dregs OF the beer which had been left
in It would flow from the bung hole, the
other held his SLOUGH hat 20 catch the
liquid. Having filled the hat with beer,
they fastened into an alley and there re
called themselves with the Intoxicating
beverage, and in few moments were in
a maudnn state. This is another evil
dence in favor of the house of correction
proposed 10 be built by the county.
