A TERRIBLE FIRE ATEAsT LIVER
POOL, OHIO.


Eight PerSOn9, Including q Mother and Six Chill
dren, Perish In the Flames.-The Father and
One Child Escape.
East Liverpool, o., Feb. 2S,-The Gre yesterday
morning in the drug store of Sloan Bros, proves
to have been much more serious that at first sup
posed. The store is located In Frank Stewards
four.story frame building which was also occu-
pied by Stewart as a feed store and baled hay
warehouse, and by Mr.. Kaufman as a grocery.
It is supposed that Sloan, being a newcomer, did
not know OF the heavy pressure which comes on
ct times from our natural gas and left 1t burning
in the drug store, over which he was sleeping
with his family Of wife and seven children, and
brother.in law Mr. skeels, Of Harrison county
this State, and who had only arrived In the town
on Tuesday to pay them q visit, On discovering
the flames Mr.. Sloan woke all, and picking up q
little daughter three years old, told them to fol-
low. The stalrways were by this burned away
and escape by that means cut of. Turning to the
front of the building, he told his wife with her
babe in her arms) and children to follow him,
and leAped to the ground. The wife and ch ildren
were either overcome by the flames and sitting
fumes from the drug store, Or failing to get the
children to jump, preferred death with them.
Mr., Sloan hoped by jumping first to be able to
catch the others and break the force of their fall
and although breaking his leg In the leap, hob.
bled around crying out piteously for the others.
The building was erected last summer and was
perfect fire trap, having numerous elevators
running up through the fourth floor which open
ed up an inviting pathway for the fiery Hend and
nearly every floor being filed with hay, the
flames spread with fearful rspidity, and In twenty
or thirty minutes the entire structure was con.
s1med. The lremen, BY heroic work, confined
the lie to Stewards building, and small adjoin.
ing frame residence. At seven o'clock this morn
ing the ruins were sufficiently reduced to com.
mence the search for the bodies, three streams of
water having been poured on them from two
o'clock. Mrs. Sloan was found with her babe in
her arms, and both burned nearly burned to q
crisp. Around them were huddled the bodies Of
the other Ave children, all having hustled into
one corner, and died as close to the mother ss
they could cling. Mr.. skeels was sleeping In
back room, and probably never knew Of the dan.
ger until escape was impossible. The scene at
the ruins this morning were heartrendlng, and
beggar description. The names Of those who per-
ished are:
Mrs. VIM. Sloan, aged 81 years; Luells Sloan,
sged 18 years; Clyde Sloan, aged 12 years: Lizzie
Sloan, aged II; Alex. Sloan, aged O.; Paul Sloan,
aged5; another daughter, aged IS months; Wilbur

Scranton, Pa, Feb. 27--The Catholic orphanage

teen children were taken out dead and two are

LATER.-seventeen children were burned, four.
teen boys and three girls. The building Of the
st. Patrlck's Orphan Asylum, situated at the cor.
Der Of Jackson street and Lincoln avenue about
a mile from the centre Of the city is occupied by
number Of Sisters OF Charity and under their
charge were forty children from six to twelve
years. The boys and girls occupied separate dor.
mitorles on the third Aoor, AT S:31 a Sister took
the children to their rooms and locked the doors
Descending the stairs she discovered smoke iEsu'
ing from room in the second story. Opening
the door she was driven back by a cloud Of
smoke. Fire was raging along the ceiling, max
ing way to the upper floor, The Sister darted up
the stair and found the girls loom full of smoke
She took the girls to the lower floor and slartei
back to get the boys. The smoke was pouring
into the hall In binding clouds and when about
half way up the ssairs, the Sister met a strange.
She made an effort to pass but he refused to allow
her, saying the boys had been rescued and 1t
would be dangerous for her to 60 for them. She
reluctantly turned back. An alarm brought the
four fire companies aud the flames were raging
fercely when the Aremen got to work. They were
informed of the belief among the Sisters that
some children were still in the building, and
made every effort to reach the upper floor. In a
short time the flames were beaten back and the
doors Of the dormitory burst open, The victims
Of the nre were found beneath the cots. Only
two were touched by Are, but all had evidently
been dead some time, Intense excitement pre-.

THE FINANCIAL FURRY

Stronger Feelings TO-dsy-The Course Of the
Banks Condemned.
New York. Feb. 26--The stock market is still in
q feverlsh condition, but opened stronger and
with an upward tendency. There Is mHch bet.
ter feeling to-day than there was yesterday, and
the opinion prevails that there will be no serious
trouble any further, though the money market
will continue stringent until the funding bill iB
passed aud signed. When that iB done the with.
will have to stop. There Ia much Indignation
felt against the banks for the action they have
taken in this matter. Their efforts to defeat the
passage Of the funding bill have reacted upon
themselves and created q strong sentiment In
favor Of the bill; and Of such legialation % win
strip the banks Of such dangerous power in the
future.
