Two ChicaRoEire

CHICAGO, Jan. 22-Within a few moments
of each other and only few blocks apart
there started about 10 o'clock tonight in
the central business portion of the city two
fires that promised disastrous results. The
first was in the paper box factory Of Duck

This was a three-story brick, the
lower portion Of which was occupied
by George ii. Taylor & Co., as a paper
warehouse. The other fire was at lis and
100 South Water, q four-stOry structure,
also brick. Page & Ostertag. j. w. Jen-
nette and G. w. Wagner & Sons, all COM
mission and butter merchants, were the
occupants. The fire at each place had food
by the most infammable description and
quickly destroyed all within reach. The
flames were confined to the establishments
in which they originated. Duck VIII
cox's loss is about $50, 900, Taylor & Co.'S
$40, 900, and building $4,000. The two
firms were fully insured, and the building

AT DIES MONIES.


Special to the Globe.
Dies MONIES. Ia. Jan. 22.-The blizzard
last night has rendered worse than useless
the vast amount of labor performed by the
various railroads of this center throughout
the past week. The cuts had been cleared
and snow piled very high on the banks and
last nights storm filed them with closely
packed snow. which can only be removed
by pick and shovel and hauled away. The
wind was so strong that the snow was
swept TO the sleet bed foundation. The
naTrow-gauge roads will not attempt to open
until the weather abates sufficiently to rem
der their efforts of some avail, but the
larger roads have strong forces of men at
work. hoping TO conquer the drifts. In
quiTies at the railroad offices and dispatches
from Cedar Rapids and Marshalltown
show the blockade to be fully as
severe as that of ten DAYS
ago. The various freight wards
of the city are filled with freight. and from
the enormous amount of coal on the track
it is feared the northwestern part of the
state will suffer for lack of fuel. Of course
this will be the first freight moved. and
will be sent through as quickly as possible.
Not half dozen loads of farm products
came to the city to-day. and coal dealers
are overcrowded with city orders.
