The Star Routes-A Grand Jury ImPan-
eIIed.
WASHINGTON, June 9.-The exact nature of
the latest reported discovery in the Star route
investigation, which it is alleged will save the
government $780, 200 per year, cannot be
made public until the Postmaster General is
ready to issue an order which will apply a
remedy. Postmaster General James is now
temporarily absent in New York. The evil
dence to be issued against the alleged Star
route conspirators is now being formulat d.
The grand jury before which the case will in
all probability come was drawn in this Dis
trict to-day. A singular circumstance is that
one of the jurymen, Herbert Schutter, hap
pens to be frescoer who was recently dis
charged from the Postofiee department on
account of illegal Irregularities in regard to
his contract with the government.
Mrs. Garfield sits up easily for about two
hours at time and is rapidly recovering.

Disastrous Rains-Brtdges Swept OFF in

erty.
NEWCASTLE, June 9.-Fifteen miles of the
Erie and Pittsburg railway north of this place
is covered with water to the depth of from
ten to twenty feet. There has been no COM
munication with Erie to-day. All the mills
are stopped and large part of this city Is
inundated. The loss of property is very
great.
PITTsBURG, June 9.-The unprecedented
rain at this season of the year has done an
immense amount of damage. A number of
RATS moored in the Allegheny broke loose,
causing loss of $15O,OOO. The rivers are
full of all kinds of drift. horse and wagon
foated ashore in the lower part of this city
a short time since. A man went down on a
raft and could not be rescued. number of
small bridges on the railroads leading to the
city have been swept away, impeding travel
very seriously. Traffic on the Pittsburg,
Virginia and Charleston railway is stopped
completely. A large washout on the Balti-
more and Ohio railroad will stop their opera
ton for some time. Great damage has been
done to the crops on the bottom lands The
Allegheny and Monongahela rivers are rising
at the rate of ten inches an hour. The rain

FIRE RECORD.

The Fire Quebec-Over Eight Hum
dred Buildings Observation-Disclosures
Hundred Families Made Homeless
Heartrendfng Scenes Amid the Flames
"A Loss of $a,OOo,oOO.
QUEBEC, June 9.-The conhagration that
broke out on st. Oliver street, st. Johns
road, last night at 1870 and ragged through
out the night until this morning, when it
ceased only because it had no more material
upon which to feed itself, is nearly as disas-
trous as the one at St. Roches some ten years
ago, which enlisted the sympathy of the con-
tinent. The fire broke out in wooden tene-
ment occupied by carter named Laperrier.
The alarm was sounded and the whole fire
brigade turned out, but only to find that
there was no water to be had! The men set
resolutely to work, however, with the scanty
supply, but their efforts were of no avail
against the devouring elements, which gained
ground at every minute and soon enveloped
a large block of buildings. The A battery
men came running down en- mGsse under the
orders of their officers and were dispatched
to various points where they could be of
most service, and set to work like Trojans.
The wind which at the outset rather
mild became furious about ten minutes past
eleven and roared from the north like hur-
ricane. The conhagration then assumed
frightful dimensions. In Quebec the upper
part of the city is supplied with water dur
ing one portion of the day and the lower
during another portion, and even then the
water is not evenly distributed, as in some
wards it is turned on at different hours from
others owing to defective system. 1t takes
about half an hour to turn the water from
one part of the city to another, and during
this half hour the flames had full play and
made terrible Roadway. All attention was
directed to the spot where the conhagration
started No attention was paid for few
minutes to the fact that a strong wind was
carrying the brands of destruction to other
quarters. Thus the roof of large brick
building about two hundred yards off was in
a blaze before any particular no.
tice was paid to it, and by the
time the water was turned on the
conhagration had assumed proportions that
defied all efforts to subdue. The whole city
was lighted with the brilliant reflection, and
were it not for the heartrending scene which
caused it, the view from prominent point
overlapping the valley of st. Charles was one
that could be gazed at with pleasure The
fire continued with undated fury and liter
ally gobbled up and entirely effaced whole
streets. The st. Johns church, which was
one of the finest edifices in Canada, resisted
the flames for q long time and, stood out
prominently in the midst of the burning dis
trict, but finally it had co yield, the first sig
nal being the fall of its steeple, which came
toppling down with fearful crash. It was
grand sight to witness the flames climbingths
steeples of the church and to see their fall
few minutes later. The more northerly of
the two was the first to 90 Tie fOttered and
fell into the roof of the structure. The
