New York, Sept. 14.-A London
special says: There is great sensation
caused at Bristol by the discovery of q
cargo Of three hundred tons Of human
bones being discharged there to the
order Of local firm engaged in manu-
featuring manure The bones are
shipped from Rodosto, at Constantine
pie, and are supposed to be remains
principally of the defenders Of Plevna.
There are complete limbs among the
horrible cargo, and In some cases the
hair still adheres to the skill.
Peter Cooper says it is common
thing for the British to buy human
bones, in fact they will take all they can
get at any time. and from any part Of
the world. They use them for manur-
ing their lands, and have often heard
it said that England was manured with
bones taken from the battlefield Of
Waterloo.

ALARMING FIRE.
Destruction Of the Exposition Build
ing at the Kansas City Fair.
Frightful Panic Among the People As
sembled There.
Dls.ster at . Fair.

Kansas City, Sep. 14.-A terrible
disaster occurred at the fair grounds
this afternoon which resulted in the
destruction of the main hall and all the
surrounding buildings. "A fire broke
out in the west end Of the main hall at
3:45 p. IN. 4 at that hour the hall was
densely crowded and at once a panic
seized the multitude. All efforts to
quiet the excited and terror stricken
people were Of no avail, and in their
confusion they rushed hither and
thither trampling each other down
while shrieks, groans and. cries filed
the air. An immense heavy black
cloud of smoke came from the burning
building in vast volume and settled
like pail over the grounds, which were
literally black with moving mass Of
humanity estimated at 10000 people.
A strong wind was blowing and the fire
spread with wonderful rapidity quickly
communicating to the surrounding
buildings. In an almost increditably
short space of time the main building
with all its contents was .ashes. The
flames leaped across the avenues to
newspaper row and quickly swallowed
up the temporary buildings of the
Times, Journal and Maa, the secretary's
office and number of refreshment
stands in that vicinity. They next at
tackled the grand stand in which not
less than 1900 people were seated
watching the races. The people fled
in terror before tho advancing fire.
Many fell and were tramped upon and
q large number were manned and
mutilated. There were no facilities for
extinguishing the fire at hand and it
did not stop until there was no
material for it. The fire department
could not reach the grounds in time to
be Of any service. 1t had to lay 900
feet Of hose to get water. 1t is believed
that there was no loss of life. No one
is reported missing up to the present
time. The loss win foot up fully $780,
600 including buildings and their
contents. The losses are distributed
among various exhibitors, and there
was very little insurance. The exposi-
tion company loss about $4,000. The
boards of directors held a meeting after
the fire and announce to the public
that they will clean up the debris to-
night and proceed with the programme
tomorrow, beginning where 1t broke
off to-day.

Long Branch. Sept. l4.-With the
exception Of the high temperature and
pulse noted in the evening bulletin. the
presidents case continues to be As favor
able as yesterday. The doctors said
that the increased temperature was
simply owing to the early presence Of
the usual fcbrile rise. Col. Rockwell
says he considered the president slightly
better. He passed last night very well.
He coughed but about three times and
expectorated quite freely and without
effort. 1 feel encouraged with his gen.
era condition, especially as there have
been no unfavorable symptoms develop
ed. think it will be comfortable for
the president here until the early part
of October, as the weather 10 generally
pleasant until that time. think when
he gains strength he will desire to go
homo to Mentor.
Ofcourse be is very sick man and
extremely weak, but each day that pass
es without thedevelopment Of any un-
favorable symptoms, is day of pro-
gress. By the time the cottages close
and the season is over here, think the
president will be sufficiently recuperated
to be moved by rail without annoyance.

has been steadily lesening, and now
when he wakes up his body has natur-

This symptom is the strongest proof Of
his general. improvement which has yet
appeared, and his physicians are very
greatly encouraged by it. It is said on
good authority that Doctors Hamilton
Agnew, and Bliss are privately of tho
opinion that there is no doubt Of his re-
covery.

LANDSLIDE.
A Swiss Village Buried by Falling
Rocks.
A Large Number of Residents ant
Rescuers Killed.



Geneva, Sept. 14.-With reference to
the land slip near Elm. on Sunday
evening last, it is feared that the list of
victims must include forty men of the
neighboring villages, who came to aid
when the first land slips occurred in the
evening, and before the village was
overwhelmed by the second slip, which
took place at midnight. The river on
which Elm is situated has been turned
into a lake, and it is feared that the
valley below will be flooded. As the
place is much frequented by strangers
this season it is feared that some have
perished. Fresh land slips at Elm are
feared. and the rescuers are obliged to
proceed with great caution.
