PITlsBURa's BIG FIRE.
The Aggregate Loss $500, 900. and the
Insurance S226,OOO

The Aggregate Loss $500, 900, and the
Insurance $226,OOO.
PITTsBURG, Pa, March 12.-The Wood
street fire was not entirely subdued untl
o'clock this morning, but the flames were
kept within the bounds of the Weldin nnd
Germania bank buildings. Both of these
structures are completely ruined.
Nothing remains Of the Weldlp buildin z
but portion of the front and eide walls.
The Germania Bank building was an iron
structure and all that is left of ID are tine
four walls, which will probably have to be
torn down. The occupants of the buildings
for block in either direction suffered con-
sideraply from water, and several small
fires occurred, occasioned by the flying
sparks, spread by the high wind.
THE LOSS.
As nearly as can be estimated to-day the
loss will be about $500 600, upon which there
is an insurance of S225, 900. The heaviest
losers are j. R. Weldin g. Co., the Germ ania
Bank aud Adam Reinman.
The Carnegies, the chamber of commerce
and the custom house also sustained quite
heavy losses.
The origin of the fire is still mystery.
There were two heavy explosions of natural
gas, but they occurred after the fire had
been discovered.
No lives were lost, although there were
many narrow escapes froln falling walls.

EIGHTY LIVES LOST oFFTaE COAST
DURING THE GALE

Many Wrecks Reported and Many
People Frozen to Death-Days Must
Elapse Before Freight and Passenger
Trafnc is Restored-The Snow Frozen
Into Solid Mass.
LONDON. March 12-Following the bliz-
zard a severe frost has set in all over Eng
land, greatly hindering the operation Of the
railroads.
Cornwall is isolated. Many wrecks are
reported on that coast and many people
have been frozen to death. At least seventy
lives were lost off the coast during the bliz-
zard, and ten men perished from cold and
exposure after reaching shore. Days
must elapse before freight and passenger
traffic is entirely restored on the branch
lines. The express train which left Plymouth
Monday is still blocked up near Trent river.
The passengers are suffering severely from
exposure. Ia Devonshire and Cornwall
cuttings twelve feet deep have TO be made
through the snow, which is now frozen
almost in a solid mass.
LOST VESSELS.
foreign steamship, name unknown, vas
wrecked off Start Point, near Dartmouth,
Devonshire. during the recent blizzard. All
OF the crew and passengers we're drowned.
The British ship Dryad, Capt. Thomas, an
iron vessel OF LOSS tons, from Shields for
Valparaiso, also was wrecked Off Start
Point. The crew of twenty -four men and
officers were drowned. Among the schooners
lost of Start Point was the Lunesdale, and
four Of her crew were drowned. Her cap
tain was saved.
The schooner Lizzie Ellen was also lost
aud two OF her crew drowned. 1t is feared
that the list of wrecks and the record of
lives lost is far from being complete. as sew
eral vessels are missing.
MANY TOWNS Isolated.
Many points inland, where the storm was
most severely felt, are still Isolated from the
surrounding country.
The loss TO farm stock is enormous.
TIE water mains at Plymouth are showed
up to such an extent that force of 200
soldiers from the garrison has been sent to
the assistance Of the water works employees
in clearing them. No water has passed
through the mains since Monday last, and a
water famine is now added to the other suf-
ferings which the people Of Plymouth have
to endure.
Snowstorms have again set in in the
west Of England, and all the roads and ram
ways are again blocked.
THE TRINIDAD LOST.
CARDIFF, March 12.-It is rumored at
Newport that the steamer Trinidad has been
lost and that all Of her crow have been
drowned.
THE BLOCKADE IN NEW MEXICO.
SANTA FE., N. NJ, March 12.-All mail
due from Denver since Monday is again
tied up in the snow blockade on the Denver
and Rio Grande railroad between Antinote
and Trespidas. For the last three days O
snowstorm, accompanied by a heavy
wind, has prevailed through the Sar
Juan country. From Chama comes word
that eighteen miles of track west Of there is
under snow from a depth of five to forty
feet. This is being cleared Off at the rate
of about mile per day, so that no trains
can hope to go west of Chams short OF
! April l. In the meantime 1t is feared that
there will be great suffering among the
people at Munroe, Amarage and other
stations as far west as Durango and Sill.

BREAKS IN THE LEvkEs.
A Crevasse Made Mile Below Sun.
flower Landing.


NEW ORLEANS, La. March 12-The
Picdyune's Vicksburg special says: ''There
are no material developments in the break
at Sunfower Landing since the telegram Of
this morning. Dispatches received from
above say that trains on the north end of
the Riverside division of the Valley
road have been abandoned, but
trains on the main line are still
running. The break in the levee Is one
mile below Sunfiower landing, at point
above where the levee crosses low fiat
swamp, out of which flows Bucks Bay,
and Bucks bayou empties into the Hush
pushana, about one mile from the levee.
The water from this break will exten d
no further north than Bobo station,
on the Valley road, which is about eight
miles south of ClarksdRle. The embank'
ment on the main line of the Louisville,
New Orleans and Texas railroad will no
doubt divert large quantity Of
this water In a southerly direction,
through the center OF Bolivar
county into BogGe-Phnlia, and Egypt ridge
on the west will doubtless prevent its reach
ing points along the Riverside division and
Bogue. Phalia will be the drainage for
southern Bolivar county. The rail-
road embankment from Wilzensky to Le-
land viii prevent the water from overflow
ing west of the main line, though the prob
abilities are that part Of Deer creek counS
try east OF the railroad may be affected to
some extent.
soFTENING THE LEvEEs.
New ORLEANS, La, March IA special
from Natchez says: "A steady rain fell all
day yesterday, and will have bad effect on
the levees, as il will soften them and stop
work on the embankment."

MEMPHIS, TENN, March IA special
| from Hilhouse, Coahonia county, Missis-
sippi, says "The levee ON the Mississippi
river broke at 1880 o'clock this morning.
| Great damage will likely result"
The levee at Conley's Lake, thirty miles
south of this city, gave way late last night
and the water poured into the little village
completely flooding everything. The tracks
Of the Louisville, New Orleans and Texas
road are completely submerged, and the
water Is reported to be rising.

VICKsBURG, MISS, March l2.-News was
received here to-day of break In the levee
