The Conf,aSration in Switzerland.

BERNIE, Aug. Photographs communication
has been restored with Grinda Valid. the vii
hge which was threatened with destruction by
fire Yesterday, and further details CT the conha-
grafton have been received. Ii is estimated
that fifty buildings were destroyed. Embers
from the burning structures were carried a
long distance from the village and a number of
chalets miles away from G-inda Wala were set
on fire. When the fire first broke out the tour
lists stopping at the Hotel Baer devoted them
selves to saving their luggage and valnables.
When their property was secured they joined
the Villagers snd the guests from the other
hotels and together they fought the fire. A
bucket line was formed and water was passed
along rapidly a. possible. but the flames had
gained too much headwav to be subdued by
this means. The principal hotels of the place
were the Hotel Baer. the SchwarZer Adler, the
Hotel Eiger. the Hotel Duglairer. the Pension
Burgener. Pension Alpeneuse and the Pension
SchOnegg. IL is not stated in the dispatches
whether any of the hotels besides the Hotel
Baer were burned.

RATES TO THE WORLDS FAIR.
A Passenger Agents Committee Consider
ing the Subject.

ing the Subject.
PEnADErFHrA, Aug. I9.-Railroad men all
over the country Just now are considering the
question Of the rate to becharged to the worlds
fair excursionists next year. Some time dur
ing the early part Of next month the subcom-
mittee, consisting Of members Of all the pas
ssnser associations In this country, will meet
and make known what the rate will be. we'll
informed passenger agent today expressed the
opinion that the tickets to the worlds fair will
be sold ct the rate Of . single fare and q third
for the round trip.
This subcommittee was Appointed several
all the various railroads Of the United States to
hear there has been considerable work which
the committee has had TO take up. II was sp-
pointed to make q rate as low as would be con-
sistent, one that would be cheap enough for the
general public, and one which would bring the
railroads fair compensation for their work.
Geo. W. BOYD, assistant general passenger
agent Of the Pennsylvania, whose knowledge OF
affairs Of this kind is generally sought, said to-
day when asked what the rate TO the worlds
fair 1t Chicago would be that it not de-
cided upon vet" Continuing. he said: I'm 1876,
when the centennial exhibition was held in this
city, the traffic associations of this country
agreed to q rate of a single fare and one-third
for the round trip These tickets were good
from June 20 November. inclusive. During the
months of September and October tickets we're
sold, good for ten DAYS. at the rate of a single
fare for the round trip. 1t is fair to assume
that the same proportion OF rates will be adopted
for the worlds fair at Chicago. as the traffic
could not be handled at less rates to earn q fair
profit On the business.
Great interest ia being manifested in the
worlds fair and indications point to large for
eign well as domestic business. The prom
inent lines Of the country will be taxed to their
utmost to accommodate the business that will
be presented. especially during the last three
months Of the exhibition. This opinion Is baFed
on our experience of handling business during
the centennial"

THE BENNINGTON TYPE.
A Probability That More Ships Of Thst

Navy Department officials are highly gr.tifed
over the ea-going qualities which the Bsnuing-
ton has developed, as evidenced in the report
from Commander Bradford. which was pub
lished in yesterdays STAR. The account OF the
heavy storm which the Bennington wcathered

high. as Commander Bradford reports, she need
not ask odds Of anything.

with the favor Of the department The useful
ness OF this type Ia extensive, a. shown In the
record Of the Bennington and the Concord,

Strikes Affect the Price OF Beef.

The first serious effects Of the railroad strikes
at Buffalo were felt in Philadelphia yesterday
among the big dealers in Chicago dressed beef
As direct consequence the Wholesale price
jumped cents per pound, with . very
scanty supply at that. 1t il now altogether
likely that for at least q week very serious
shortage will be felt and further advances in
the price are likely to occur. The cars loaded
with beef shipped from Chicago on and before
Monday last, which should now be here, are
sidetracked in Buffalo and cannot be moved
