P~ittsburg's Exposition DESTROYED by
Eirn


PITTsBuRG, Pa, October 3.--The
magnificent buildings of the Pitts,
burg Exposition, on the bank of the
Allegheny river, were totally des-
troyed by fire about 2 o'clock last
"Wednesday morning. The immense
structures, with then almost endless
variety of exhibits, illustrative of
every branch of art, science and me-
chanical skil!, which were yesterday
visited by thousands of people, and
since the opening on September 6
by hundreds of thousands, is now a
mere mass Of splintcred and pow
dered cmbers and curled and tangled
iron. The destruction is complete,
and nothing but the site remains.
The fire was first discovered in the
boiler-room attached to machinery
hall, at the south end of the building
and before the Waterman could give
an alarm the flames had spread to
floral hall, machinery hall and the
main bull ling, and in less than ten
minutes the buildings were on fire
from end to end, and when the Sire
department. arrived on the ground
the fumes were beyond CONTROL
Nothing was saved. In one hour
from the discovery Of the fire a mere
attenuatrd skeleton of a once nag
niticcnt structure was all that was
left.
The total loss will reach $1,000
600. Secretary Patterson places the
value of the buildings destroyed at
Sl50,000, the insurance being $40,
coo. The exhibitors will sustain q
loss of about $4,000. An irrcpar,
able loss, however, was occasioued by
the destruction of the relic depart
ment. The cash value of the ar.
ticles contained therein did not cx'
coed $4,000, but many cannot b,
replaced. In the annex, the Ara
biau,' the old locomotive of the BAL
timore and Ohio railroad, the frs.
locomotive ever run in the Uuitc(
States, was also destroyed. The
Great Western Band lose Il full sci
of splendid Instruments. In the saf,
were 5000, the cash receipts fron
yesterdays admission, and Lpyy's golC
c%ornet. The safe was taken from
the building to>day aud its contents
including the $4,000 aud Lcyy's cor
net, found uninjurcd. The corno
was somewhat discolorcd, but no
otherwise damaged.
