rapidly disposed of, and in every case ex-
cept in regard to the communication with
Boston the wires were clear. Up till nine
o'clock there were one hundred operators
at work, and after that time the force
numbered eighty, only few short of the
usual number. The female operators were
all sent home in coaches. Someryiile stated
of l53 branch offices in the city, all except
few of the more important had been
closed and the managers OF each, very few
of whom had struck, were summoned TO
the central Office. Later, however, they
were sent back to their offices. Cots were
provided for those that remained during
the night, and supper was prov ided for
them at the expense OF the company, many
being day men who consented TO remain.
Reports from different points at 10 P. NJ.

FIRE AND DEATH.

All the Cause Of a Spark from an Engine
Several Persons Killed and
Others Injured,

New YORK, July 19.-At about 10 o'clock
this morning spark from an engine fell
into pile of jute which had just been
landed on Harbeck's dock, from the ship
Lawrence +. Delay, from Calcutta. The
dock was filled with hemp iute and coffee.
The flames spread with incredible rapidity,
and in few minutes the entire dock was
ablsze. The Deap was the first vessel to
catch fire, and her rigging was burned be-
fore the ship could he tOwed out. Next to
her on the south side of the dock was the
ship Perseverance, also from Calcutta,
which arrived yesterday, and on the north
side lay the ship Col. Adams, from Calcutta,
To both these vessels the flames communi-
Gated, and the
Crews Jumped Overheard for Safety.
In the meantime a general alarm had
been sent out, and five steamers and four
nook and ladders were soon on the spot
When the fireman reached the dock, the
supports of the roof fell in with a terrific
crash, .burying over dozen tiremen and
dock hands beneath the ruins. 4 rescuing
party was quickly formed and the men
were dragged from the blazing rafters,
none dead, but all more or less burned and
b.uised. Firemen Mcnamara, Mcdonald
and McDongail, Of the Hook and Ladder
truck No. 80 were injured seriously. A
,ommotion just then occurred in the
crowd, and the chief of the battalion gave
orders TO clear the dock, as the ship Law
renee nelsp which was now on fire above
md below, contained 800 bags OF saltpetre.
A rush was then made by the crowd to the
lrrtier erd Of the dock.

burned,
