ing rapidly every business building in town

altogether about thirty houses and tents

no insurance. One man was seriously in
iured. The only building left in the
business portion of the town was one con-
tanning several tons of powder. Among
the buildings burned was ono containing
several thousan rounds of cartridges, the
explosion of which caused great consterna
tiOn among the people assembled, who
hastily retired from the scene.
A terrible fire has occurred on st. Denis

in Fortenol's hotel, and destroyed nearly
all the principal stores in the town.
