Twenty Million Dollars, Worth
of Property Devastated - Forest
Fires Raging.

A"cuty hIlIOh DOllarb' worm
of Property Devastated - Forest
Fires Raging.
ST. JoHN's, N. F., July 10.-A fire com.
menced on Friday at about p. m. in q
stable near the head of Carter's hill. II
had not rained in three weeks. The houses
in the vicinity were inhsmmable. the wind
was northwest and the thermometer at 75.
The fire rushed down Longs hill, taking
in the Methodist church, the Masonic
hall and five tall wooden build
ings. 1t leaped thence through wooden
ranges to Cover street Methodist Episcopal
church and the Episcopal church, licking
them furiously. Small buildings were
swallowed by the flames as If 1t were an
earthquake. The cathedral, built of stone,
took half an hour burning. 1t cost half
million dollars st. Patrick's hall, north
of the cathedral, was attacked next. The
Christian Brothers schools occupy the
lower flat. The brothers worked like bea-
vers, but their labor WAS Intellectual. 1t
cost $780, 900 and was insured for S35, 900.
The flames spread rapidly along Queen
road to Cathedral and Scott streets. The
flames struck the Atlantic hotel, the
Colonist Office and FIVE brick buildings at
about o'clock and in this quarter 1t fairly
rained fire. The heat was like that of
furnace blast and it was impossible for
human life to withstand it, Everything
was now given up and those owning the
few remaining houses patiently waited for
the worst. Although panic for a time
prevailed and the FIRE brigade was paralyz-
ed still the people were remarkably well
behaved.
The streets burned from Water, north
and south from Beck's Cove to Holyles-
town, number over twenty-five, The coal
lighters Dover and Huntress and the
steam launch Sharpshooter were
burned, but the rest of the shipping,
moving out in the stream, was
saved. Last night thousands csmped in
sheds erected by the government on the
New Era grounds and Bannermsn park.
There is much suffering. Provisions are
hourly expected from Halifax and other
cities. The fire stopped westward at Beck's
cove. Forest free are burning from the
Gould marsh toward the west end but have
not get come close. Three hundred men
are battling the forest flames.

BOSTON, July 10.-This afternoon John
Booth, one of the men who escaped from
the state prison Friday, was captured in
the woods near Belmont, Mass, by Officer
Fisher of that town. Booth was in the
company of John c. Lynch, another of the
escaped men, but Lynch got away. A
crowd of men is looking for Lynch. Booth

HARRISBURG, July 10.-The entire divi-

mia, about eight Thousand men, has been
ordered to Homestead to support Sheriff
McCleary in suppressing the riots at that
place. This action of the governor was
taken on receipt of the following dispatch
sent to him this evening by Sheriff Nc
Cleary: ''The situation at Homestead has
not improved. While all is quiet there,
the strikers are in control and openly ex-
press to me and to the public their deter
mination that the works shall not be oper-
ated unless by themselves. After making
all efforts in my power, have
been unable to secure a posse re-
spectacle enough in numbers to accomplish
anything, and 1 am satisfied that no posse
raised by civil authority can do anything
to change the condition of affairs and that
any attempt by an inadequate force to re-
store the right of law will only result in
further armed resistance and consequent
loss of life. Only large military force
will enable me to control matters. I be-
lieve if such force is sent the disorderly
element will be overawed and order will
be restored. I therefore call upon you to
furnish me such assistance" Governor
Pattison, as commander in-chief of the
National Guard, at once issued the follow
ing order:

WORKMEN,

WORKMEN.
At midnight the horrible fear took pos
session of the strikers that the company
might even sneak in Pinkertons, disguised
as workmen, while the militia held pos
session, and as such move would
mean a practical triumph over the strikers
the suspicion has caused great perturba-
ton. Altogether the strikers are in a very
uneasy frame of mind tonight and their
anxious faces give evidence of their ex-
element. 1t is possible that feeling of
desperation over the prospects may cause
the hotter headed to counsel violence to
the militia, but it is safe to say such sui
cidal policy, if endorsed by the more igno-
rant workmen, will be carried out only in
the face of determined opposition from the
leaders.

HOMESTEAD, July 10.-Excitement was
created late to night by the announcement
that the Pennsylvania troops, eight thou
sand strong, had been ordered out and
would arrive in Homestead. The news
flashed to this city at lilo p. m. and a
few minutes later it had come to the ears
of the strikers At first the report was
received with incredulity, but few in
quiries among the press representatives
convinced the men that it was right.
Little groups gathered at the street
corners and the situation was
discussed in low but earnest
TONE The hotheaded strikers were at first
disposed to be little defiant and there
were occasional declarations that even the
troops would be opposed, but when it was
learned that the division ordered out mum.
bered 5000, declarations promptly gave
way to ''oh, we'll, we have beat the Pink
come" and thus consolation was found in
| the reflection that the most hated enemy
of organized labor-the Pinkerton guards
had been obliged to con
TESS defeat and give up the
battle. The leaders of the strikers were
unusually uncommunicative. eve can
not talk" was the response to all interro
cations.
Later the opinion was freely expressed
by the rank and file that the militia woule
be received by no hostile demonstration
and that an armistice wonld be declared
until after their departure. But the,
will have to go away sometime, said tn
leader of little group, land when the,
do we would like to see them rul
the mill non-union." This utteranc
fully expresses the condition that will b
ushered in by the advent of the troops
The troops will meet neither violence no
violent demonstrations, But when tn
troops are withdrawn the strikers wi
swoop down upon the non-unionists VIII
may be set to work, and the latter will b
rent to pieces. This is undoubtedly tn
plan of the strikers and the belief c
their leaders now is that the Carnegi
company will, hasten to install non-unio
workmen in the mills Immediately upo
the arrival of the militia. If this be dor
a great advantage would be gained by tt
party in possession of the mills.

TREADING ON DANGEROUS GROUND.


TREADING ON DANGEROUS GROUND.
The leaders realize that they are treading
on dangerous ground and do not intend
officially to commit themselves to any &C
ton at law. They are the leaders of an
unorganized and large body which may at
any time break away and act as a mob.
Therefore no one is willing to assume the
responsibility, and control is now exer-
cised unoficially and through separate
lodges in which secrecy obligations hold as
well as through committee. The advi-
sorry committee consisted of the president
and two members of each lodge. One rea-
son for its disbandment, members of the
committee say, was that Sheriff McCleary
! and others endeavored to use the commit
tee and get its endorsement of the pres
ence of deputies here.
