Holocaust at milwaukee.

MILWAUKEE, April 10.-The Davidson
theater and the Davidson hotel were
destroyed by fire yesterday morning.
The police report lives lost and
number of persons injured. The the
ater was Quilted by the flames. The
property loss will be $500 900.
The Davidson theater was the finest
play house in Milwaukee and one of the
handsomest and costliest theaters in
the country.
The valuable scenery carried by the
Lilliputians, whose 10 days engage
ment at the theater was to close on
Wednesday, is all gone. Manager Rosen-
thai, of the company, says it was worth
$25, 900.
Shortly after &c o'clock, when the fire
was seemingly under control, the thea
ter root, on which score or more of
the brave tiremen stood as they fought
the flames, went down, and the brave
men were carried with it to the floor of
the auditorium below. Some were ex-
tricated from the furnace Of flames, in
which the whole interior was then en-.
veloped, by their more fortunate COM
rades, who risked their lives to drag
out the PROSTATE forms Of the dead and
injured men. Six or eight men were
soon brought out, and those who were
able to speak said there must be ten
more in the ruins, where living death
awaited them. For these poor fellows
there was no chance. The burning
roof had fallen on them and they were
roasted to death, if they had not been
killed in that terrible plunge from the
roof.
The guests of the Davidson hotel.
which occupies part of the floor, fled
panic-strick from their rooms when
the alarm Of fire ran through the corri-
doris. They were really in no danger
and had ample time to get out. None
were injured.
The bursting of steam pine in the
Humboldt school in Chicago the 9th
