FIERCE FIRE IN HARTFORD.
IT IS BELIEYED THAT SOME LIvEa
 HAVE BEEN LOST.

Two Women Ran About on the Roof of tho
 Burning Building but They Wore Res
 cusd-seven People Missing and Search
 is Being Made for Them.
 Hartford, Nov. 4.-At 7:45 o'clock to- night fire was discovered on the first floor of the five story brick building, ,42S to 432 Main street. occupied by Neal, Goff & Inglis company. house furnish CTS. The fire was seen by passers!by who chanced to look into the store and saw a bright light in the rear end of the store. About the same time loud re- port like that of an explosion was heard in the building, and almost immediately the flames shot through the transoms and windows of the store. In few min- utes a fierce fire was raging, and the flames were eating their way rapidly through the floors above. Three alarms were turned In in quick succession, and all the fire apparatus in the city was brought out.
 In the meantime there was great ex- citement in the neighborhood. The floors over the store were occupied by o. H. Minor, who conducted a boarding house. There were twenty-five guests in the house, and they rushed out of their rooms in great haste. without attempt ing to save anything belonging to them. By the time the fire department began work on the fire the flames had reached the roof. The stock of wall raper and carpets in the store made q hot fire, and the other buildings in the neighborhood were threatened.
 While the flames were working their way through the upper floors of the building the people in the street saw two women rushing about on the roof of the burning building. They were in state of excitement and several times walked over close to the edge of the roof, acting as though they were preparing to jump Some body ran up on the roof of the building adjoining that which was on fire, and assisted the women to a place of safety. They were domes- tics employed in Minors boarding house. --ss,
 The fire burned fiercely until il o'clock, when the walls fell in. All of the number of guests who were stopping at Minors boarding house have been &C., counted for excepting seven. It is not yet known whether or not these perlshed in the fire, but a search is being made for them. It is thought that everyone in the house escaped. There were re- ports circulated in the crowd that an old man was seen to appear at one of the windows on the third floor and af- forwards fell back In the fire, but thus Tar 1t, Is not positively known whether anybody was burned or not
 The firemen were still at work with hydrant streams at midnight. The ruins were too hot to begin a search for the bodies of possible victims. How the fire originated is a mystery. There is a theory that the explosion in the store was caused by the. gas meter A few minutes before the fire was discovered Frederick Grosbeck, clerk employed in the establishment was in the store and lit the gas The building is owned by Colonel H. K. Kennedy, who places his loss at $6O,O0d, insured for $100o0. The loss on Neal, Golf & Inglis coEapany's stock is estimated at $50, 900.

 on November 3: After the capture of Kulienchao on l the 18th the Japanese headquarters were moved from Wi-Ju to this point. 1 Two columns chased the Chinese to sato and attacked Andong. The Chinese fled without lighting, throwing away l arms and drums in their flight.
 General Tatsumi started for Fong Wong on the 27th and arrived there on the 31st. The garrison made no show of fight, but fled toward the main body as soon as the Japanese approached. The principal generals are proceeding with their troops toward Moukden. The inhabitants of Haichao and Ia kcshan complain bitterly of the violence
 of the Chinese soldiers, from whom they suffered constantly during the occupa- tion. They are very friendly toward the Japanese. At present the Japanese are taking no prisoners By the capture of Fang Wong, Andong and two more abandoned batteries the Japanese came into possession of fifty-five cannon, 20 900 rounds of ammunition, 1,500 muskets and 10000 cartridges, besides an enor- nous quantity of miscellaneous sup plies.

 has established an office of civil admin istration in Andong, and has placed in charge Colonel Komura, secretary of the Japanese legation in Corea. He has
 issued a proclamation promising protec- tion and ordering them to pay this years taxes to Colonel Komura.' 7
