FIRE FIEkD.'
A Very Expensive Blaze in
LeadVille,
Several Prominent Buildings on
Chestnut Street Destroyed.
Two Dead Bodies Recovered-Others
Thought Burned.


Leadville, May ia fire broke out
on the south side of East Chestnut st.
this morning about half past three
O'Clock and before it was got under
control, destroyed all the buildings on
that side east Of the First National
bank for nearly a block, including the
Windsor hotel, Academy of Music, and
the Palace Of Fashion, a large dry
goods house. The fronts of the build
ings or the opposite side of the street
were charred. The loss is about $780,
900, partially covered by insurance.
The FIRE is supposed to be the work of
incendiarism. Two dead unidentified
bodieshave beer found and it issupposed
that other lives are lost, as some of the
occupants of the buildings are missing.
The wind was very slight, otherwise the
fire would undoubtedly have destroyed
a very large portion of the city.

Dallas, May 19.-The Times to day
published an article to expose the secrets
of the practical order known as the
American Knights of Honor. 1t is an
anti-C Catholic society, something after
the style of the old no nothing organiza
ton, and is Differed by the local
republican leaders. VIM. Jesse Grant,
formerly a Methodist minister in East
st. Louis, Illinois, later the editor of
the Dallas Gazette, a cousin of General
Grant, is said to have organized the
society in Washington, and that an
other republican leader welI-known in
the state, is out organizing lodges.
The purpose of the society is said to be
to defeat of the Catholic democratic
candidates for office. The exposure is
made on the authority of one of the
members of the society who gave the
secret away.
