BIG FIRE IN ALLEGHANY.
Paper Warehouse, Brewery, Lumber
Yard and Planning Mill Swept Away
Two Firemen Injured.

PITTsBURG, Pa, April 4-Fire was
discovered on the second floor Of the
paper warehouse of Godfrey & Clark
in South Canal street, Allegheny, at
two o'clock this afternoon, and a gen
eral alarm was sent in. Within an
hour the large frame building, which
was filed with a stock of paper, was
totally destroyed. At a quarter to
three the flames had communicated to
the four story malt house of Eberhard
& Obers' brewery.
The strong wind famed the flames
into intense hot waves, which fairly
melted that building and contents to
the ground. The wind drove the flames
to the midst of a row of brick and
frame dwellings in South Canal street.
Chief Murphy then telephoned to
the Pittsburg Fire Department for aid,
which was sent. Before the two COM
panies from Pittsburg had arrived the
dwellings were in flames and. their
total destruction was only a question
Of time. At a quarter to four the large
lumber yard and planning mill of Kopp
& Voegtly, in Chestnut street, were
on fire, and the Heinz Pickle Works
were in danger. Five minutes later
the Hope Cot on Mill, in Main street,
became ignited, and was soon destroyed.
Three dwellings in the rear of the
cotton mill also caught about this time
and were destroyed. 1t is reported
that q child was burned to death and
that several res dents Of the South
Canal street dwellings were seriously
injured. John Donehyo and Adam
Badger, members of a Pittsburg fire
company, were removed from under q
wall which fell on them. Both men
are unconscious and badly hurt. Thew
we're taken to the Allegheny General
Hospital.
The losses as estimated: Godfrey
Clark's loss, on buildings, $50. 600; on
contents, $40, 600. Eberhard & Obers'
loss, 800, 900; fully covered by insur-
ance. The dwellings, in South Canal
street were owned by Thomas Tough
reg. They are valued at 80, 600; JAMES
Steiner's residence, $40, 900 The cot
ton mill, owned by E. M. Ferguson,
was valued at $22, 600. It was occupied
by the Fl. j. Heinz Pickle Company as
a warehouse. Their stock is valued at
$50, 900.

STORY UNFOUNDED.
Yankee Capital Not Trying to Secure the
Grand Trunk Road.

NEW YORK, June 16.-It was reported
from Montreal that George j. Gould and
Russell Sage were at the head of move
ment to bring within the control of Amer
ican capital the management of the Grand
Trunk railway system, which is now di-
rected by Englishmen in London. The
story seems TO be n greatly exaggerated
growth out of movement TO get posses
sion of branch of the Grand Trunk, the
Great Western railroad, in order to form
a distinct and continuous line with the
Wabash.
1t is believed now that the original plan
which came from Canadian interests was
to parallel the Canadian Pacific, but
that the New York capitalists entered only
so much of the scheme as was to the adj
vantage Of their existing roads. The lease
of the Great Western may, however, be
only the first step toward the execution
of those larger schemes George j. Gould
Is preparing to leave for London soon, and
this was part Of the program telegraphed
from Montreal.
Mr.. Sage, in speaking Of the DEAL spoke
Of the state of the money market as being
a limiting condition on any large transac-
ton. especially of one contemplating the
investment of such enormous sums as the
acquisition of the control of the Grand
Trunk. The value of the stock and bonds
Of the Grund Trunk Is about $500, ,0O0, 900. (

that there is no reason to doubt the guilt
of Jose Correiro, who stands accused OF
numbering Bertha NJ. Manchester on

fourths of a mile of the scene OF the MUIR
der, in spot where it hal been hidden by
the prisoner, who directed the authorities
TO its hiding place.
The only evidence Of guilt found on the
prisoner was a blood spot on the shirt,
hardly an eighth OF an inch in diameter,
but among those whose positions make
their statements reliable, it Is said that
Correiro has virtually made a confession.
He does not acknowledge, of course, that
the brutal murder was in any way pre-
meditated, but it resulted from the strong,
passionase fis.ht ',ndc hv the victim.
