FIRE IN INDfANAPOLLS.
Firemen Go Down with Failing Walls an
Two Were Fatally hurt.

indianapolis, Ind, Dec. 3.-A fire
began here this morning in the whole
sale grocery store of Schnull & Co.,
Nos. IS to 6S South Meridian street.
At $50 O'Clock the third floor of the
building fell in, and the heavy stock
that was piled on it was carried to the
first floor.
The flames at once broke out, and
from the beginning the fire spread in
all directions. The employees all got
out without serious injury, though
some of them had narrow escapes.
Before the department arrived the
entire block was doomed. Great clouds
of black smoke were pouring out OF
every window in the building and by
the time water was turned on the
whole interior was ablaze.
There was much inflammable ma
terial in the stock carried by the com
pany and the fire burned fiercely.
There was an insufficient supply of
water and the weather was bitter cold.
The buildings were all brick and
were three and four stories in height.
Several firemen were carried down by
falling walls. One, and probably two,
it is believed, who have been taken tc
the hospital, will die.

Or. Stevenson Frustrated by Paraiysis-His ID
Recovery Doubtful.

Recovery Doubtful.
While conducting services in Christ
NJ. L. Church, Thirty eighth and
Hamilton streets. Philadelphia, Sunday
morning, the Rev. William j. Steven
son, d. D., was stricken with paraly-
els, and it is believed that his death
will ensue. as he has not vet regained
consciousness and is sinking.
Dr. Stevenson began tho services ap-
parently in good health, but after pro-
ceeding about half an hour speech sud
denly failed him, and the congregation
became startled at his evident illness.
He was removed TO his home, No. 3507
Hamilton street, and, although he re-
tained consciousness for time, gem
eral stupor came over him, and he be-
came unconscious. His condition grew
worse yesterday. and last night his life
was despaired of.
Mrs. q. +. Rudolph has received a
letter from friend of DR.. Stevenson e
wife. 1t was written on Monday, was
sent at Mrs. Stevenson's request and
says: DIR. Stevenson suffered slight
stroke OF paralysis while in his pulpit.
The first indication was difficulty in
talking coherently. Fortunately Mrs.
Stevenson got him home before he be-
came helpless. At present he is not
conscious and his friends are exceed
ingly anxious. DIR. Striker has de-
cided that there is an effusion of blood
on the brain. If this should spread his
recovery would be doubtful" "
DR.. Stevenson is about go years oi
age. He was admitted TO the ministry
in 1859 and has filled many important
appointments. He was pastor OF
Grace Church, this city, for several
years,
