A Hotel Holocaust.

NEW YORK, Feb. IA disaster, appal-
ling 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 quarter of a
century at the southeast corner of Sixth
avenue and Fortieth street, burned to the
ground and large number of persons
we're burned, sufocated and crushed in
the ruins. At the time OF the disaster
there were nearly $50 guests in the house.
The hotel employees, all told, numbered
fifty FIVE. Of the $50 people, five have
thus far been found dead, six are
IN the hospital and sixty three have
been reported alive. One hundred are
still missing. The number of dead will
probably not exceed, at later estimate,
thirty. The scenes were heartrendlng,
and appalled, even the firemen and pohce-
men, who are used to such sights. Soon
after the fire broke out, ambulances
arrived from the various hospitals, and
many physicians, whose residences are
in the neighborhood, were quickly on the
scene, and did all they could to relieve
the injured. Nearly every one of the
1874 rooms, which the hotel ha6 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 o'clock this morning, when Richard
Meares, the proprietor, went to bed.
When the flames bursi forth from some
unknown origin. near the elevator shaft,
the entire building was instantly en-
yeloped in flames.

A Jail Break Frustrated.

DETROIT, Feb. 5.--Wednesday dep
uty sheriff saw signs of conspiracy
among eight prisoners in the county Jail
to escape. He was not able to discover
their methods of operation and their
tools, but it was found that the iron bars
in window had been nearly sawed in
two. In the cellar of the building are
three cells. called "dark holes," as bad as
those in the English jails which Charles
Reade told of. They are extremely hot
and close, and there are iron rings six
feet from the floor and similar rings
near the door. Six of the suspected
prisoners we're manacied to these rings
yesterday, their arms being stretched
above their heads. They were left in
that position all night. The torture was
frightful, and all ready to tell everything
this morning. They agreed that George
Daily. alias Miller, charged with larceny,
was the leader, and the tools were given
up. Back of the sink IN ward six was
found saw made out of the shank OF
woman's shoe fastened to a piece OF
broom handle, and in another place
large jack knife, the blade of which bad
been notched into saw. Among the
consplrators were Charles Price, George
Jefferson and Edward Cornell, who are
awaiting trial on the charge of having
committed daring burglary. One of
them was kept in dark cell until noon
today, when he tainted.

Brother and sister.

HURON, s. D., Feb. 6,-In 1882, 81. W.
Williams came here from Illinois He
remained until the following spring.
when he went farther west, accumulated
some money and went to Chicago, where
he is now engaged In the leather business.
Williams parents lived near Springfield,
Ill. The father was killed in the battle
of Corinth, just after his wife had given
birth to girl baby. The shock broke
her down, and she and her babe went to
San Francisco to live with Mrs. Todd, a
half sister, leaving young Williams in
care of family, which eventually adopt
ed him. Mrs. Williams died and the
girl became known as Helen Williams
Todd. Intimate friends of Mrs. Todd
removed from San Francisco to Chicago,
and during the winter of 1888 she and
her adopted daughter, Helen,. visited
them. At reception Williams and Miss
Todd met. The acquaintance r1pened
rapidly and there were frequent ex
changes of letters. This went on for two
years, when Miss Todd went to Chicago
to live with friends on Drexel boulevard,
her foster mother having died. The
friendship between Williams and herself
budded into love and blossomed into an
engagement, and the date for the we'd
ding was set. A few days before the
event was to take place Miss Todd was
looking over package of old
papers left by her foster
mother. These letters gave a faint clew
to her brother, and she turned them over
to her betrothed and asked his assistance.
An old fashioned photograph OF his
mother was in his possession, and
further research showed that the two
were brother and sister.

Gillian Affairs.

New YORK, Feb. 5-The Berald's Val
paraiso special says: Judge of Crimes
Foster assured me today his entire review
of the Baltimore case occupied ten days.
81 have rendered sentence upon Irena
Shumada and Rodriguez" he said, sin
strict accordance with Chilian law. The
only regret feel is, there was no direct
evidence showing the immediate cause of
Higgins death, although 1 tried every :
thing in my power to fix the response
bility for his killing upon some one.
The court of appeals, which will review
the action of Judge Foster, will reconvene
next month. On all sides there are re
newed expressions of hope that there will
be a speedy resumption of friendly inter-
course between Chill and the United
States. Since the loss of the steamer
John Elder there has been a great deal of
talk among the residents OF this city
against the Pacific Steam Navigation
Company. Many people here, in view of
the approach of the worlds fair, de-
slres to see line of American steam
ships between Valparaiso and Panama,
or direct to San Francisco. Some are
even in favor of traffic with New York,
by way of Argentine and Uruguay ports.
There seem no doubt of an opening to
one American line along the Chilian coast.

Blaine Has spoken.

WASHINGTON, Feb. b..7-Secretary James
G. Blame has finally spoken. Under date
of yesterday be has written Chairman
Clarkson, of the Republican national
committee. formally announcing be ID
not a candidate for the Republican presl-
Dental nomination. The full text of his
letter is:.
81 am not a candidate for the pre-
sidency, and my name will not go before
the Republican national convention for
nomination. I make this anrou 1cement
in due season. To those who have
rendered me their support owe sincere
thanks, and am most grateful for their
confidence. They will, am sure, make
an earnest effort in the approaching con-
test, which is rendered especially inn
portant by reason of industrial and
financial policies of the government
being at stake. The popular decision
on these issues Is of great moment, and
will be of far-reachlng consequences"

SprinSer's Policy.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.-The Springer
policy of attacking the Republican high
tariff by separate bills has found an in
dorsement from the great political econo
mist and father of tariff reform, Hon.
David A. Wells, of Connecticut. At
the next conference of the Democratic
members of the ways and means let ter
will be read, not only indorsing the
Springer policy as the wisest party course
at this time, but intimating even if the
Democrats controlled both houses of
congress and the executive. the separate
bill plan, rather than measure for
general revision, would be the wiser
course. That this gentleman, whose
works and essays for years have served
as the chief Democratic literature in the
agitation for tariff reduction, should ap-
prove the plan now adopted by the
Democratic ways and means committee,
is naturally source of great qualification
to Springer and the other members of the
house who have stood as advocates of a
separate bill policy, as opposed to the
demand for an attempt at general re
vision

The Present House.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 6.-The mugwump
papers and nearly all the papers which
supported Mills IN his contest for speaker
have been pounding the Democratic
house on the back for some time past be
cause of its inactivity In the matter OF
settling down to work. The house has
simply done nothing thus far except to
adopt The rules and hear some obituary
oratory- 1t mig hit be added to this also
that the time has been found to abuse
Reed and other Republican leaders in the
last congress, and for the wholesale de-
nouncement of the last congress and
what it accomplished; but aside from
this nothing has been done. 1t now ap
pears that not only the mugwunp pa
pers, but also those regular rabid Demo
cratic journals, which accept Dave Hill
and his platform as gospel, are complain
iEg that nothing is being done. They
intimate gently that it would
be a good thing to try and hurry
up business little, and adjourn at some
early date. 1t is almost an absurd thing
~" W 'alh duouC auJouTHment. NOoOuy
could guess within three months of the
time this congress might adjourn. From
the way it is going on now it can scarcely
get through by election day, and even IN
that time it will accomplish nothing.
There is no danger for the Republicans in
the continuation of this congress in sess-
ion. Every day the Republican party
grows stronger, as the policy of the
Democratic house becomes apparent.
The majority is so large and unwieldy
that it cannot keep itself together, and
there are chickering's between the leaders,
who last session joined in one wholesale
howl against the Republican congress
and its leading men. The split in the
party has not healed, and it is extending
far beyond Washington and into the
states preparing to elect delegates to the
Chicago convention. The Democrats. or
those who have any sense, fear the result
of this congress upon the country, and
freely say if anything can elect Repub-
lican president the present Democratic
house can do it.

A Perilous Journey.

NEW YORK. Feb. s.-Captain James
Monahan, who for over thirty years has
been a resident of Canarsie, and for
twenty years of that time has followed
the sea for living, will start early to-
morrow morning on perilous journey.
Some time ago Captain Monahan declared
to some friends that he intended to cross
the ocean, and when questioned as to
how lie proposed to make the journey,
surprised them by answering: SIN a
boat built by myself. 1t is too expen
sive to pay for the trip" The boat is
sixteen feet long and two feet wide. and
is so rugged as to make it's management
an easy task. A small cabin is covered
with canvas, which IS intended to protect
the provisions from an angry sea. There
is room enough to carry food sufficient
for 100 days, but the captain expects to
make the journey in sixty. The wood
used In the construction of the boat is
entirely cedar. The captain will meet
his friends at 8 o'clock tomorrow morn
ing at the Myrtle Club house. He will
then go to Canarsie, board his boat and
start on his perilous journey.

stolen BY Indians.

PRESCOTT, A, T., Feb. 5-A sensational
report reached here today from Varde
Valley, to the effect that two Indians
passed there yesterday, going in the di-
rectlon of San Carlos, having in captivity
white girl, 16 years old, whom they had
stolen from near Flagstaff. Captain Jack
son. who brought word to Prescott, is an
old and reliable citizen of this country.
He states the girl and her captors
stopped at ranch and the girl was per
mitted to go into the house to get some
thing to eat, when she told her story,
imploring to be rescued. As there was
no one at the house except boy he
could render no assistance, but as soon as
they left he gave the alarm to the neigh
bors, who organized posse for the pur-
pose of pursuit. Officers from Flagstaff
reached there soon afterwards, and it Is
thought her rescue will soon be effected.
