PIrTsBURe, June 16.-For the past twenty.

more like hospital than railroad depot. All

miscellaneous variety Of incurable peo-
pie who had been taking religio-med.

lishment on Troy Hill. The great majority Of
them were sadly disappointed. They came here
firmly believing that the noted priest possessed
supernatural healing powers, though he never
made such claims himself. For the most mart
they were hopeless invalids, whose cases had
been given up by other physicians A majority
OF them were very poor people who had spent
their last money to make the trip to the 1'rov
Hill good Samaritan. The condition of mos,
OF these returning patients vas as miserable ar
could well be pictured. Some were carried h
their trains on stretchers, while others came ID
the depot on crutches and wheeled chair.

Tho Department Of State has received re-
quest from the district attorney Of New York
aaking for its assistance in the arrest and re-
turn TO this country Of True W. Holt, an officer
OF the Wehlsbach Incandescent Gas Burner
Company. charged with embezzling the COM
pany's funds. The departments information on
the subject 10 that Holt sailed from New York
on the Hamburg American line steamer Nor
mania. The British officers at Southampton
were notified and attempted 70 arrest him
when the vessel arrived at Southampton. But
the officers Of the German steamer and their
local agent at southampton refused to permi,
the British officers to arrest Holt and sailed
away from Southampton with him. Now it il
learned that when the Normsnia arrived al
Cuxhaven the German officials there arrested
and detained the man. The Department OF
State has taken no further steps in the matter
but is now resting in the belief that the Ger.
man government will rectify the wrong done
by the officers Of the steamer and send Hoi,
back to America.

Casselman, Canadian Village, Likely to Il
Consumed by Fire.

Consumed by Fire.
OTTAWA, June 16.-The village Of Casselman;
about thirty miles from Ottawa. on the line Of
the Canada Atlantic railway, is likely to be en-
tirely consumed by fire. Passengers by the
Canada Atlantic train from Montreal cay the
village when they passed through it last night
was a mass Of fire. Immense piles of lumber.
measuring millions of feet, and huge stacks Of
tan bark. containing thousands Of cords,
and nearly every house and store in
the village were on fire. Men, women and
children were rushing toward the woods in the
most frantic manner with what little of their
household effects they could rescue from their
dwellings. There was no possibility Of ascer-
tanning whether there had been loss of life, but
the destruction Of property must have been
enormous The village is the second largest on
the Canada Atlantic line between Ottawa and
Coteau. The population is said to be some
where in the vicinity of 1000.
