FIRE RECORD.

An Insane Asylum fn Fiames-The In-
 mates Removed Without Mishap.
 DANvIILE, Pa, March 6.-The main build ing of the State hospital for the insane two miles north of here, caught fire last night in an unoccupied ward which was being re- painted. The condition of the roads was such that assistance from mile and half distance could not be rendered until the fire had gained great headway. A fire engine be- longing to this borough was dragged through the deep snow by six horses but soon after going into service it was rendered useless by the breaking of some of it's machinery. As sistance was telegraphed for to different towns in this vicinity, but before it could be furnished the whole wing of the main build ing was destroyed, a portion of the latter having been blown up for the purpose of saving the west wing At about 6 a. m. the fire was thought to be under control, but it again broke out, and this afternoon reached the west wing. The hospital was supplied with water from large reservoir, but it was impossible to get suffisie force to be of use. Nearly 800 patients were in the institution, all of whom were removed without confusion or loss of life to detached buildings in the rear of the main building. When the fire was dis covered the inmates were in the hospital chapel at evening service, and this circum- stance assisted in keeping the unfortunates under control and together. Most of them will be distributed to other institutions until some arrangements can be made for their care here The building was in process of erection for some eleven years and cost the State about 5000, ,OOO. It was substantial structure, built of stone, 1, 40 feet front with center building and three sections on either side, covering an area of one and three quarter acres. The fire showed the faulty construction of the roof in not having a fire wall above the roof between the differ ent sections, as the fire spread nearly the length of the building along the roof. The origin of the fire is unknown. There is i'm surance of $25O, 900 on the hospital and fur riture

Turkey and Greece-BOth Parties Pre-
 pairing for War.
 LONDON, March GA Vienna correspond ent says No further intelligence has been received here as to the proceedings of the ambassadors in Constantinople. All that can be learned is that the pour p0rlers are kept strictly secret. The Mahometans of Prevesa have petitioned the great powers to leave that place under Turkish rule. They are also sending numerous volunteers to Janina Thither likewise volunteers are 1ocking from Albania. It is learned from Constantinople that the shores of the Dardanelles have now been completely fortified with strand batter ies. large number of Turkish troops have been assembled at that spot, part of whom are shortly to be sent to Epirus and Thessaly. Ahmed Serre Pacha, inspector general of en- gineers, after examining the Dardanelles for tifcations, expressed himself in terms of high praise at what he has seen. He is now gone forward to insp psct the state of the Turkish troops and defences about Salonica. From Athens it is reported that the Hellenic gov ernment has hired the whole of the steamers belonging to the Greek steamboat company. They are to be used as transport vessels and possibly may hereafter receive some arma- ment in order to be employed as war ships at Missolonghi The Greek War department has established three large military depots.
 A Berlin correspondent says: According to news received here from the lest quarters from Constantinople, Count Hatzfeld's peaceful mission has proved a failure, in fact has broken down altogether. Turkey will not give in and is said to be hurrying on all the preparations with the utmost speed pos sible for immediate war. The present esti- mate of the Turkish forces to be employed against Greece is 10000 men. Fresh forti- fcations are being erected at Gallipoli Smyrna, Mitylene and other points. Arma- ments and enlistments are being continued with the utmost despatch. The Porte has union of the East Roumelian with the Turk ish troops.

Dillon Threatened With Arrest-Murder
 of an Evieted Tenants Successor.
 DUBLIN, March 6.-It was understood that Mir. John Dillon, M. F., who left London yesterday, was to be summoned on his ar rival in Dublin to appear at the Borrisokane Petty Sessions, on Wednesday next, to show cause why criminal informations should not be filed against him for his speech at Bor- risokane last Sunday. Mir. Dillon returned to Dublin this evening by the mail train, but the authorities did not serve the summons as expected At the last moment instructions had been received to suspend any action un- til Monday, as it had not been de- cided whether Mir. Dillon should be arrested on warrant or proceeded against by summons It is believed that the Home Secretary is in favor of arresting Mir. Dillon, and it is expected that this course will be carried out on Monday. To-day MT. Jeremiah Stringer, 8 detective, went to Bor- risokane and swore informations against MT. Dillon for his aBoycotting' speech there last Sunday. MT. Stringer returned to Dublin last evening, after getting the informations signed, but he found that instructions had been given to suspend the warrant until Monday. There was some doubt expressed as to whether Mir Dillon would appear, but by arresting him the authorities will compel him to give bail for his appearance on Wed nesday next No arrests have yet been made under the coercion act, and none are expect ed until Monday or Tuesday.
