of five frame buildings and was one story
in height. Ire building occupied the site
745 Mission street; adjoining this, 747, was the
premises of w. G. Koch, occupied az paint
shop; 749 was occupied by NJ. Dwyer as a
hardware store and adjoining that, No. 751
was the hardware store of Justiniau Caire.
753 Mission street was occupied as storage
place by the indianapolis furniture factory.
These buildings, all frame, were totally
destroyed. While the fire was raging,
northwesterly wind drove the flames to the
rear OF houses fronting on MiDna street.
Four OF these buildings were involved,
and they were all two-stOry frames. No.

sion was opened by Bishop Bowman of ST.

Stephenson. President Of the Wesleyan
Connection in London, was greeted enthu-
siastically. He said when an Englishman
came here he felt as If he had shaken OFF
some shackles; he had gotten into coun-
try where it made little difference what
church he belonged to; where he did not
meet people who are too highly cultured"
He was glad to see what Methodism could
do in country where it had fair field and
favor; this conference ought to be great
spiritual power.
Mr.. George Green of Glasgow was the
next speaker. He hoped the channels Of
difference between Methodists would be
somewhat worn down as the result OF this
council. Rev. MIR. bercrombie of Shrews-
bury. England, delivered the last address

prayer by DR.. Stephenson.

sician was summoned. He considered
Parnelps illness serious and sent for an
other physician, with whom he held a long
consultation. This consultation was re-
sumed Sunday when Parnell was in great
pain and growing weaker every hour. His
sickness was pronounced an attack of acute
rheumatism. He was untiringly nursed by
his wife, who hardly left his bedside from
the moment his Illness was pronounced
serious. From the day he took to his bed,
however, the state of ParnelPs health was
such as to necessitate the constant attend
ance of two physicians, but In spite of their
incessant and untiring efforts to prolong or
save his life, Parnell gradually sank lower
and lower, until he expired in the arms Of
Mrs. Parnell, who is utterly prostrated by
the shock. Owing 10 the suddenness Of the
Irish leaders illness. ana the belief of his
wife and physicians that he would probably
recover, no friends OF relations were present
when he died There were only Mrs. Par
nell and the physicians in the room.
Mrs. Parnell, Mr.. Parnell's stepdaughter
and the servants, according to the latest ac-
counts of the death Of Mr.. Parnell, were
the only occupants Of the house on Walsing-
ham terrace when the Irish leader expired.
The end, these later reports state, was one
of intense agony for the sick man until the
last moment when he became unconscious,
and eventually died without pain.
THE SUICIDE REPORT DENIED.
The early-day report that Parnell died by
his own hand spread far and among the
persons whom it cached was Mrs. Parnell.
Tonight she requests that an emphatic
denial be given the rumors that her hus-
band committed suicide. She states he had
long suffered from rheumatism, which de-
velOped into the fever which killed him.
In an interview this evening James
0'Kelly, member of Parliament for North
Roscommon, said he called upon Mrs. Par
nell tonight and she admitted him to see
the body of Parnel. O'Kelly declared from
the peaceful expression on the face of his
late friend it was difficult to believe he was
really dead. He could not state what was
the cause OF death. The aspect of the corpse,
however, suggested that death resulted from
natural causes and had come without any
violent pain.
LONDON GREATLY SHOCKED.
In this city particularly the news Of Par
neI's death came like thunderbolt upon
the clubs and political circles. Nobody was
even aware that he was indisposed, conse-
quently wk4l it became known the Irish

leader was dead, the first idea was that he
had committed suicide. AS the day wore
on, however 1t leaked out from the state
ments of his intimate friends that Parnell
complained recently of not feeling as we'll
as usual, but it was not thought BY anybody
that there was anything serious in the symp-
toms, though he was thinner than last year.
HIS LAST PUBLIC APPEARANCE.
The last time Parnell appeared in public
was at Creegs. Ireland, September 9th,
When ne delivered a long speech upon the
attitude and alleged inconsistencies of Dill
lon and " Brlen. Upon that occasion Par
nell stated he was speaking in defiance of
the orders Of the doctors attending him, and
who had ordered him to keep in his room,
While Parnell was speaking at Creegs il was
noticed that he was very pale and in other
respects not the same man he had been in
the past. In addition. he had carried his
left arm in a sling. He was suffering from
rheumatism.
THE DOCTORS RETICENT.
The son of DR.. William Richard Powers,
FRS, the author of many important
works on diseases If the brain and spinal
cord, who has been attending Parnell, was
the physician who watched the closing
hours of his life. The great leaders condi-
tinn was so bad throughout yesterday that
DR.. Powers was unable 10 leave his bedside
from early in the morning until Parnell
breatEed his last. Both Mr.. Powers and his
son refuse to make any statement as to tile
cause oil his death or as to the progress Of
his sickness until the family authorizes it.
CONDOLENCES FOR THE WIDOW.

large number of telegraphc messages from

Gladstone.

MONTREAL, Oct. THE death of Parnelf
has created profound sensation here, where
there are two parties, one f,vorable, the
other hostile to the dead statesman, but now
all hostility Is forgotten and only express

opinion among prominent 1rishmen eliclts
the belief that the hands of Gladstone are
strength ened and the death of Parnel will
do much to heal the dissensions in the party.
AT TORONTO.
TORONTO (Ont), Oct. Sympathizers

LONDON. Oct. 7.-Great Britain and Ire
land were startled this morning by the
utterly unlocked for announcement that
Charles Stewart Parnell. the noted Irish
leader, died suddenly at 1850 o'clock yes
terday evening at his home, Walsingham
terrace, Brighten. 1t had been known that
Parnell had not enjoyed the best of health
for years. and it had been noticed and
widely commented upon that since the
O'Shea divorce developments and political
trouble came upon him the great Irish MEM
Der of Parliament had grown thinner, and
he had perceptibly aged in appearance but
nobody expected to hear of his death and
no inkling as to his illness had reached the
public.
CAUSE OF HIS DEATH.
Parnell arrived at home in Brighton from
Ireland Thursday. and complained of suf-

BALTIMORE, Oct. T. Professor Paul
Haupt, chief of the Semitic Department of
the Johns Hopkins University, has just re-
turned from London and Berlin, where he
had conferences with noted scholars in
reference to a new translation of the Bible.
1t is proposed to include in this translation

also the Apocrypha. The American
scholars who have been invited to con-
tribute are: S. C. Toy of Cambridge, author
of Christianity and judaism; Professors
Charles A. Briggs and Francis Brown, of
the Union Theological Seminary, New York;
Professor w. II. Ward of the New York
independent; Professor E. l.. Curtis of
Chicago. the arch8ologist and successor to
President Harper of the Semitic Seminary
at Yale, and Professor R. Harper, Presi-
dent of the new Chicago Baptist University.
The character of the work will be internas
tlonal though the project is to be brought
out under American auspices.
