true. The flames still gained head
way in spite of the efforts of the fire.

dry-goods merchants and importers,
and at about ten o'clock were in
a blaze, and as woolens, silks and prints
caught fire, the flames shot up from the
cellars 10 great distance above the
roofs of the buildings. ALI of No. 62 be-
gan to sag and the firemen abandoned
that side. While working on No. 68 a
heavy iron cornice fell to the street,
but without injuring any person. At
eleven o'clock there was nothing left of
the three buildings but the walls, yet
the flames from the burning mass of
goods now and again darted up, but the
firemen poured in a copious supply of
water and soon had the flames COM

Fire I'm New YOrk...LOss About
1900, 900.

NEW IOHk, JAM II.
A FIRE broke out this evening at No.
81 Worth street and spread rapidly.
The flames were first seen on the third
floor, and before the firemen could get
fairly to work they spread to No. 6S
Worth street, and in short time the
buildings right through to Thomas
street were in a blaze. There was sore
difficulty at first in getting water, but
in short time q large number of
streams were poured upon the flames
from the Thomas street side. The second
and third alarms were sent out, and ten
engines were soon at work in Worth
street and five on Thomas street. The
fire is said to have originated ON the
third floor OF No. 62 Worth, street, oc-
cupied by Walkinshaw & Voight,
dealers in woolen goods; Tristman &
Co., woolens, and Wolf, Myer & Co.,
mems clothing.
While Fire Commissioner Bonner
and number of firemen were on the
floor where the fire originated, the floor
began to give way, and they were COM
PEELED to beat hasty retreat to the
Thomas street side. They were not a
moment too soon, for just as the last
man escaped, the floor gave way with
crash, and the flames burst out on both
sides.
The police reserves were called out
to keep back the great crowds that
were attracted to the spot. While
President King, of the Fire Depart
ment, was standing in the front of No.
81 Worth street, a cry was raised that
the wall was falling, and a number of
firemen rushed to his rescue. They
had scarcely got across the street
when the second floor fell in with a
loud crash, and, despite the combined
efforts of the firemen, the flames
spread with terrible rapidity. and soon
communicated to No. "a. Here every
thing seemed to burn like tinder.
Stream after stream of water was di-
rected on the buildings, but to no pur-
pose, and floor after floor fell in with
tremendous crash, spreading conster-
nation among the crowds that extended
two and three blocks away. The fire.
men worked hard and willingly, but
they began to get tired out. An addi-
tional force was then sent for and 8
large number of fresh men were drafted
from up town districts and put to work.
1t was too late, however, to save No. 62
and the whole building was completely
gutted. The flames then took hold of
Nos. &c and 68 Worth street. and from
that time the firemen seemed to give
up all hope of saving any of the stores
and began pouring water on the ad-
joining buildings.
The flames suddenly burst through to
Thomas street, and the whole vicinity
was made bright as day. For some
time there was much consternation,

Death ut J8nesville of . Well
known Circus Lion.

"PARKER' is dead. The old lion,
who season after season has been gazed
upon by hundreds and thousands, is nc
more. Yesterday afternoon he breathed
his last, old age and its infirmities hav.
ing weakened him so that death had an
easy victory over him. He was a very
large animal and was among the first
performing lions ever exhibited in this
country. He was among the first ever
tanned by Crockett, who conceived the
idea that lions could be made to submit
to the rule of man, an idea which was
sneered at by even his friends. Crock
ct, however, insisted on making the
trial, and in spite of the warnings OF
friends entered the cage occupied by
80 Parker" and other lions. Parker
peunced upon him and q fierce struggle
ensued, but Crockett came forth as con-
gueror. The lion got his revenge on
man, however, and in 1862 he broke
from his cage in Astley's amphitheater,
in London. where he was on exhibition,
and pouncing upon Jarvey, who was
Crocket's assistant, seized the poor
mans throat with his fangs and sucked
the life blood from his victim. Not con-
tent with having killed his keeper, he
tossed his limp and lifeless body to and
fro as a cat would q dead mouse. When
Crockett appeared ON the scene "Par-
kerr was still infuriated by the taste OF
human blood, and fierce struggle en-
sued. Crockett procured blankets. and,
saturating them with spirits fastened
them to long poles and set fire to them.
BY thrusting these hot flames into the
very face Of the lion the animal was
frightened and made to skulk back into
his cell, where he was secured. Par.
kerr was afterward safely housed in the
Geological Garden at London. where he
was visited by hundreds. The lion was
brought to this country in 1868 in con.
nection with the European circus, and
at the sale of that concern in 1872, was
purchased by MIR. Gobbins, who has
owned him since. Parker" has felt
the infirmities of age for some months
and it has been with some difficulty to-
ward the last of the season that ht
could mount the cage, on too o.
which he was always poised during the
street parades. For the past few weeks
he has grown feebler. and though hi
appetite kept good, the food did not
seem to strengthen him, and worn ou

WASHINGTON, Jan. IA.
Henri j. Birch, Presidential Elector-at-large
of Louisiana, testified to the effect that be
signed the second set of certificates, having
been advised that there was informality in
the first set. He knew nothing of the forgery
Of signatures except what he had learned
from the newspapers and conversations.
Thomas s. Kelley, who testified on the 11th,
was recalled, and, after much pressure, stated
positively that the name Of Joffrion was
forged, but was not quite SO sure as to that
Of Levisee. Witness stated that a
clerk in the Governors Office named d. P.
Blanchard, now dead, forged the signature,
and that he was present when it was done
said that II he could see the electoral certif-
Gates he could show the forgery of the name
of Joffrion, AS well as that of Levisce, as he
had made marks on them to prove this be
yond a doubt and to show the committee the
men who did 1t. The certificates were shown
him by General Butler who requested him to
point out the marks. Witness replied that
the difference was in the handwriting and
make up; these were the marks. He desig-
mated no others.
