ACRES OF FLAME.
Destructive Confiagration at In
dianapolis, Ind.
Several Extensive Manufactures, Lumber
Yard, Foundry and six DWELL
ings Consumed.

INDiANAPoLIs, 1ND., June 13.-Between
II and l2 O'Clock tonight fire originated in
the large cabinet works Of d. i. Stone q
Co., in the northeastern part of the city,
and tho building being frame structure
ties, the fire spread rapidly, and soon COM
municated with tho veneer works of
Adams II Williamson. In few mo.
ments this establishments, with out.
buildings covering four acres, was
in flames, and the whole was completely
destroyed. Osgood IL Co.'s lumber yard,
opposite, was next attacked by the fire,
and suffered badly. The loss OF Adams IL
Williams is s15,O0J, with $50. 600 insurance;
the loss of Stone & Co., s35,O0O, with s12,-
900 insurance, and the loss Of Osgood &
Co. $4,000, with 1000 insurance. While
nearly the entire fire department was bat
tling with this fire an alarm was sent in
from the extreme southwestern part of
the city, caused by blaze in Roots largo
foundry. Owing to the distance the de-
of the confagration, and when
some Of the engines finally arrived
water was found to be scarce, and the fire
spreading rapidly to adjacent buildings. 1t
was impossible to control the flames, and
the foundry and six frame dwellings near
by were totally destroyed. The loss on
the entire property will be about SS5, 900
as nearly as can be estimated. The only
causalty reported was the running over
of q child by ono of the department
wagons, but he was not supposed to be
fatally injured.

THE DEAD EMPEROR.
A Post Morton Examination Reveals Il
Fat That He Died From Cnncor.

E8,t That He Died From CAnCor.
BERLIN, June 17.-Thc post-mortem ex.
animation to-day was confined to dissec-
tion of the neck, larynx and lungs. In the
larynx, which was found to have been de.
stroyed by suppuration, was cavity
about the size of clenched fist. DIR.
Mackenzie states in the report, which he
prepared ut the command of Emperor
William, that the disease was beyond
doubt cancer Of the larynx. He adds that
the diagnosis was rendered very
difficult, as the disease attacked
the cartilage of the larynx at the out.
set and afterward developed chiefly in the
lower part of the cartilage. The National
Zeitung says that tho autopsy proved
that the larnyx was completely
destroyed by cancer, and that
putrid bronchitis existed. There was also
in fla mmation of the finer ramitications of
the bronchial tubes, into which putrescent
particles had entered. The whole larnyx
was in state of suppuration, and pre-
sented soft, lumpy mass, with scarce
ly any trace of cartilaginous struc-
ture remaining There was nothing to
show the existence Of perforation of the
walls separating the trachee and esopha-
gus. The choking sensation from which
the Emperor suffered during the last days
of his life, which was attributed to such a
perforation, appears to have been due to
collapse of the larynx owing to the de-
struction Of the cartilage. The direct
cause of death is given as paralysis Of the
lungs. The post-mortem examination oc-
cupied one hour.

HELD UP.

Road Agents Work Railway Train, After
Compelling submissIveness OF the Em-
pioyes-- MontanR's First Experience in
the Line. f
HELENA, MoST., June 17.--Montana has
had its first experience with train-robbers.
Never before in tho history of the Terri.
tory has any attempt been made by road
agents to emulate the example OF the men,
bers Of the craft In Texas and New Mex
leo, and therefore all Montana stands
aghast and mourns because Of the stain
that has boon put upon hor character. The
scene OF the hold-up was at Junction City,
on the Northern Pacific railroad, sixty
five miles cast Of Billings and Miles City.
No. 1 express, bound West, reached the
point named about II o'clock last night 1t
was running at the usual rate OF speed
when Eng ngineer Sargent saw man on the
track considerable distance ahead wav-
ing a torch. He stopped and q masked
man appeared at the steps Of the engine.
Some one fred bullet through the cab,
and Sargent was ordered to throw up his
hands and get out of the engine, which he
did. The men were standing about masked,
eight Of them, and they moved down to tho
express car, pryin the door open with the
S"6 HSSi q PiShsf oai 6CuU rWlho Alhauc w
crawl through the aperture and advise
the messenger that he had better sur
render. He was inclined to resist at
first, but finally weakened and gave
up the keys. About s400 was secured from
the safe. The robbers, who were un-
doubtedly cowboys, remained about the
express car and engine for at least thirty
minutes, making no attempt to molest the
passengers in tho coaches and sleeper.
Their incessant firing gave the passengers
pointer as to what was going on, and
they employed their time to advantage in
concealing their money and valuables.
Finally the gang, with the engineer in
front, started through the coaches.
A guard was placed at the door
of each car. The passengers were
very much alarmed and excited, but NO
violence was offered. The guards on the
platforms kept up q constant fusillade
and this added to the alarm of the women
especially. No watches or jeweiry were
taken from the men, but all the cash that
could be found was gobbled. The sleeping
car conductor gave up $40, and the losses
of the passengers will foot up $500. The
robbers consumed about two hours
in the work. A passenger who
offered slight show Of resistance
came near being killed A shot was
fired at him which cut through his hat
and passed out the window. The fireman
was allowed to return to his engine after
tbs robbers had stationed the guards at
the door, but the engineer was held in close
custody until the robbers had finished the
job and disappeared in the darkness OF
the night. The train reached Billings two
hours late, and the sheriff soon organized
posse which started in pursuit. Moth
ing has been heard from them US yet. The
robbers, without q doubt, belong to the
cowboy fraternity.

Sr. PAUL, MINI, June 15.-Further adj
vices from Northern Minnesota and Dakota
indicate that the losses by the severe
storm OF Wednesday mig ut and yesterday
will be heavy. At Forman, Oak, the
storm approached the magnitude OF tor
nado, traversing the county from north.
west to southeast Several buildings wero
blown down, and one or two were de-
stroyed by lightning. At Rutland,
eight miles southeast Of Forman, the
new opera house was completely
destroyed, Dyste Bros store was blown
down, Ross store was wrecked, and q
building adjoining the Journd, Office was
carried away. A dwelling house was also
upset, and numerous barns and other
buildings were badly damaged. No loss
of life is yet reported. At Fergus Falls
the wind was terrific. A building belong
ing to Fl. b. Colo was demolished, and the
Grant Hotel seriously damaged. There
was an enormous fall of rain. At
Rushford, Mimi, it has been raining thirty
hours. The Root river has risen four
feet, and is going up four inches an hour.
At Atkin, Mimi, the NJ Mississippi is raging.
The water has completely submerged the
residence portion of Hdngerford's addi-
tion, and many families have been COM
pelled TO vacate their homes. The back
water in Mud river has caused hundreds
offamilies along its banks to leave. The
water is higher than 1t has been for four.
teen years, and farmers are out in RATS
after their cattle. All wires are down at
St Vincent, Minnebo. ', Medicine Hat,
Quappelle and other points in the line Of
the storm.
SUPERIOR, Wis, June 15.-The flood Mt
Cloquet is receding quite rapidly, and the
situation is rather brighter for those who
have thus far been able to save their prop.
erty. Several million feet Of the runaway
logs from Cloquet entered the Bay Of Su.
perior, but are being picked up and made
into RATS. Several hundred people have
been rendered temporarily homeless at Clio.

Is expected that their condition can be bet.

Lumber Company is estimated at from
100000 to 100000, and the total loss to
Cloquet at s5O0OOO
