New YORK, Feb IA disaster, apaIl-
ing in horror, and bringing to mind the
terrible occurrence in Park Place, still
fresh in the public mind, occurred in
this city early this morning. The Hotel
Royal, that well known landmark,
which has stood for more than a quarter
of century at the southeast corner of
Sixth Avenue and Fortieth street,
burned to the ground and large num-
Der of persons were burned, suffocated
and crushed in the ruins. At the time
of the disaster there were nearly 150'
guests in the house. The hotel en-
ployes, all told, numbered fifty
OF the 150 people, five have thus far
been found dead, six are in the hospital,
and sixty-three have been reporte.:
alive One hundred are still missing.
The number of dead will probably not
exceed, at later estimate, thirty. The
scenes were heartrending and APPALLED,
even the firemen and policemen, who
are used to such sights. Soon after the
fire broke out, ambulances arrived from
the various hospitals, and many physi-
CIauS, MHOS0 IcSl0cHCCS ttO III 1llC hClSL
borhood, were quickly on the scene, and
did all they could to relieve the injured.
Nearly every one, of the 124 rooms,
which the hotel had on its five floors,
was occupied last night by guests, many
of them transients. In fact all the
rooms save four, had been taken at l
O'Clock this morning, when Richard
Meares, the proprietor, went to bed.
When the flames burst forth, from some
unknown origin, near the elevator shaft,
the entire building was instantly en-
veloped in flames.
The origin of the fire is unknown. 1t
started in the basement near the elevator
shaft, which is located in the middle OF
the building. The flames were first seen
pouring out of the cupola on the roof
directly over the elevator shaft by an
engineer of a Sixth avenue elevated
train, who stopped his engine directly
in front of the hotel and blew the loco
motives whistle loud and continuously
| The usual sound woke many sleeping
people and brought the policemen to the
scene, " no at once sent in a fire alarm
When the fire was finally gotten under
control there was a general inquiry as tc
who had taken lodgings at the hotel anc
who had gotten out IN safety. Neither
the proprietor nor the attaches could
give the names of any but a few of theil
personal acquaintance. Then the cal
was naturally made for the hotel regis
| ter. 1t could not be found, although il
was not apparent it had been destroyed
| A search was Instituted and an enter
prising newspaper man was found max
ing off with it, thinking thereby doubt
less to secure ''beat'' on his contem
poraries by printing the exclusive list o
the names, but he was despoiled OF hi'
prize, and may have to answer to the
charge of larceny into the bargain.

New YORK, Feb. 6.-The committee of
democrats appointed at recent meeting
opposed to calling the state convention
in February, issued an address to the
democrats of the state today, saying that
the state convention had been called by
the committee for the 23d of February,
for the manifest purpose of forestalling
public opinion and influencing the polit-
ical action of other states by an apparent
unanimous delegation from New York
in favor of the preferred candidate of
majority of the committee. The people
are urged TO fight at the primaries to
! elect delegates who regard the ''snap"
convention as detrimental to the true in
terests of the party, and who, in taking
their seat, will move that the convention
dissolve without taking any action at all.
| Devotion is urged to the great issues
which carried the party to victory in
1890, and absolute loyalty to the candi
date who shall be declared by the ma
tional convention to be the best and
truest representative of those principles.

ALBANY, Or, Feb. 6.-James Wallace,

daughter of w. w. McCoon. He has a
wife and four children, and was we'll

more. All his property has been at
tached, which will leave his wife with
out means. She is prostrated over the
affair.

New ORLEANS, Feb. 6.-The arrival of
apout sos rifles and 2600 pounds of am
munition, consigned to Colonel Crandall,
chairman of the democratic committee,
on the steamship Ell Paso from New
York, was noted yesterday morning by
the New Delta, accompanied by strong
editorial remarks concluding as follows

raised the cry of rifles in this contest.
Every So bilf,'' meaning every pro-lot-

taken the necessary steps to protect the

adds:

Elaine not a Candidate.

NEW YORK, Feb. THE Press this
morning has an article signed by Carson
Lake, in which he says:
Secretary Blaine will not be a candi-
date for the republican presidential nom
ination. 1 have the highest authority,
next to MIR. Blaine himself for making
this statement. The decision of Mr..
Blaine is the result of his belief that his
health, though now good, will not bear
the great strain for a canvass for the
presidency and the subsequent duties of
the presidency. He knows that the
nomination of his party is at his COM
mand and that even President Harrison
would not contest it with him, against
the overwhelming sentiment in his favor
that prevades the republican party in
every state in the Union. But he real
ICES his physical condition to be unequal
to the task of canvassing the states of
New York and Indiana, which the re-
publicans must carry to win the election.
