ed To touch and move the hearts OF the

without manuscript. and with clear, ring
ing voice and graceful gestures. and using
some very striking illustrations drawn
from college life and the memory OF his
own University days, the Bishop seemed
10 catch the attention and deeply I'M

MANY LIVES LOST.
1t Is Thought That Fifteen OF Twenty Men
Were Burned in the Glucose Fire.

1t Is Thought That Fifteen or Twenty Men
Were Burned In the Glucose Fire.
BUFFALO. n. ", April 1.-THE full
extent of the loss of the burning of the
American glucose works is still uncer-
tain. About eighty men were at work
in the building when the fire broke
out, but how many escaped and who
among them persisted cannot yet be de-
termined Some, to avoid death in the
burning building, leaped from the
windows only to be buried under fall
ing walls, or into the canal only to be
imbedded in mud. Two men who
jumped from the burning building into
the canal were but slightly hurt. The
following are missing:
George Huber, employed on the
seventh floor.
John Trube. of Gray street.
Michael Maleski, employed on the
eighth floor.
Henry Stineson.
On Scott street the building was
eight stories high.
The loss although overestimated in
the early reports. is still larger than
this city has experien ced in five years.
1t is now estimated that the loss to the
glucose works proper will not exceed
5000. 900, fully covered by insurance.
