THE FIRE RECORD.
Burning of the Glen House, MT. Washington
Loss Not Yet KNOWN.

Loss Not Yet KNOWN.
MI. WASHINGTON, N. H. Oct. 1.-The Glen
House and outbuildings burned tonight. The
woods adj joining are in blaze, and there is a
strong breeze from the northwest. The fire
presented grand sight from the summit. The
house was owned by W. and c. R. Milliken, and
closed for the season to-day.
MIDNIGHT. AT this hour the fire at the Glen
House is still smeuldering. Everything was
destroyed and the fire in the woods has nearly
spent itself. As the nearest telegraph office and
the nearest inhabitants at the signal station,
eight miles distant it is impossible to ascertain
the cause of the fire or givefu1 details. One of the
walters at the house. who left there this morning,
and who is now at the summitt, states that the
guests have all left, the only persons remaining
being about dozen of the help. Two men,
however walked down the carriage road this
afternoon with heintention of staying there.
Owing to the early hour at which theIre occurred
it is probable ne lives were lost. None of the
horses or cows used during the season had been
removed
