Long before the arrival OF the train here
the Baltimore 4 Ohio depot was crowded

head and bowed to the crowd.
When the procession passed up Main
street the street presented a glorious m.

torches atlame, seemed marching through

ANOTHER HOTEL R

Burning Of the 6uwanee Sulphur Sprinn
Hotel In Florida-Tw0 Lives Supposed T.
be Lost-An theG Guests Escape.
JACKSONVILLE, FLA, jar. II.
News reached this city this afternoon
that the Suwanee Sulphur Springs Hotel,
probably the finest structure of the kind in
the State, burned at Suwanee, Fla, early
this morning. The nearest station is at
Live Oak, fully twelve miles from the con.
Migration, and accessible only by . ~
rage road. The first news at hand reports
that the fire suddenly broke out ON the
second floor of the building, directly over
the kitchen, about 4:3O O'Clock this morn.
ing. Its origin is q mystery. A
strong draft in the halls and high winds
on the outside carried tho flames along
with great rapidly, and the whole building,
. magnificent tour-sided, fi~ve-turreted
wooden structure. with . great open square
In the center and LIS rooms, was quickly
converted into q roaring furnace. Fully
100 guests were asleep in the house when
the flames burst forth. Many of them were
invalids and nearly all from Northern
States. Nearly all the guests were forced
to escape by leaping from the windows and
verandas, and several suffered broken
limbs, but no more serious injuries. A Mr..
Palmer, said to be from New York, was
badly singed by the flames, but
his injuries are not dangerous. A
colored servant girl INT a negro
boy are reported missing, and it is
feared that both persisted. No search of
the ruins has yet been possible. None of
the guests saved any of their property, and
the luss to the owners of the hotel was also
total, nothing but a small fraction of the
Office furniture being saved. The village
possessed no conveniences for coping with
such an extensive conflagration, and had
other buildings been near the whole town
