A Big Blaze at Pittsburg-The Exposition
 Building Laid Low-A Heap of smOuI-
 derfne Rufns-The Loss Estimated at a
 Million Dollars.
 P1TTsBURG, Pa, Oct. 3.-The magnificent buildings of the Pittsburg exposition with their endless variety of exhibits, which were opened on September 6, and which have since been visited by thousands of people, e,are now heap of smouldering ruins, being completely destroyed by fire which broke out at o'clock this morning The exhibits consisted of all varieties of products and in- dustries, including many valuable relics, among which was Arabian" the old loco motive of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, the first built in this country. The fire was first discovered in the boiler room attached to Machinery hall at the south end of the building; and before the watchman could give an alarm, the flames had spread to Flora hall, Machinery hall and the main building. and in less than ten minutes the buildings were on fire from end to end, and when the fire department arrived on the ground the flames were beyond control Nothing was saved, and the firemen turned their attention to saving adjacent property, many residences on South avenue being in flames. By hard work, however, they succeeded in saving all these with no more damage than the burning of cornices and fences. Repeated alarms soon aroused almost the entire population of the two cities and it is estimated that not less than from 75,OOO to 100000 witnessed the confaeratiou The reflection of the flames illuminated the country for miles around. In one hour from the discovery of the fire mere attenuated skeleton of @ once magnii- cent structure was all that was left.
 The attendance at the exposition yesterday was the largest of any of the previous days in it's history The admissions in the day and evening were twenty-seven thousand and the crowd last night was so great that

The Staying of Carey-O'DOnnelfs Plea
 of Self-Defense--An Ingenious Gaze
 Made Out by the Murderer.
 LONDON, Oct 3.-A correspondent of the Central News in an interview with Mir. Sulli- van, chief counsel for O'Donnell, to-day elicited important information concerning O'Donnen which is summarized as follows O'Donnelrs moods alternate between rage tended to kill Carey, saying that had it been his intention to do so the act need not have been done publicly for a hundred good chances presented themselves during the voyage of putting him out of the way with out being observed. He particularly men, tions one occasion when he might have dis posed of Carey without mourning the slight est risk. One dark stormy night Carey visit ed him in the saloon of the Kinfauns Castle and remained with him chatting and oc- casionally drinking until 8 late hour.
 Carey asked him to escort him back to the steerage saying he was afraid to go alone. ODonnell accompanied him through drsnching rain. The wind was blowing violently and not soul was in sight as they made their way along the dark, slippery deck. 1T could have killed him then," he
 says, without the slightest fear of detection had wished to do so." Although Carey
 called himself Power, O'Donnell says the people on board the vessel knew who he
 really was before the steamer reached Cape Town. After his arrival at Cape Town O'Donnell met Carey several times and was persuaded by him to accompany him to l Natal. Referring to the killing of Carey O'Donnell says that on the morning of the
 shooting Carey called upon him in the ! saloon. Not having invited Carey to visit
 him and not caring particularly about seeing
 him he received him rather coldly. Irritated | by ODonnell's coolness Carey became inso- | lent and quarrel ensued which ended by Carey's leaving the saloon. Carey then went into the cabin, but re- turned in short time and
 at once assumed a bullying and menacing attitude. O'Donneil replied l tauntingly, whereupon Carey grappled with
 him. In the scuffie which followed O'Don- nell was worsted, but still defiant and not in clined to give up Carey drew pistol which O'Donnell dashed aside so violently that it | fell upon the floor. Carey stopped to re- ' cover it and was in the act of rising when O'Donnell fired not deliberately, but purely in self defense. believing as he still does that
 his life was in danger. In speaking of the | testimony of young Carey O'Donnell de-
 scribes him as being 'tas cunning as coyote"
 and expresses entire confidence in his ability
 to disprove his statements at the proper time.
