PANAMA, Oct. "a. VIA New YORK,
Nov. a.-The Star and Herald pub
fishes the following account of the
great confagration at Guayaquil,
Ecuador.
On the night OF October the post
and city Of Guayaquil was visited by
perhaps the creates FIRE in history--if
we except that of Nero's Rome.
The fire is stated to have originated
in suspicious manner in the store of
Messrs Massanouvich g. Rowski, two
North American Jews. Their store
was located about the center of the
city. At the time strong breeze,
known as FL Morrow, was blowing,
and it did not subside for 90 hours,
long after the irery element had
devastated the whole of the city
to the north and about two
thirds Of the public property and
nearly all Of the commercial quarters
were destroyed. Four banks in the
city were RACED as also We're three out
OF the four newspaper offices, the Gus.
tomhouse containing some Sl,0OO,00O
worth OF goods and the church OF
San Domingo, relic OF the
Spanish occupation. The fire
spread with indescribable rapid
ty and at no time was the fire
department able to cope with it. 1t
simply burned itself out. Only five
people have been known to have lost
their lives. 1t was stated that in
launch, laden with furniture, which
caught fire and was swept down with
the tide to the island of Puma, five
sisters of the Sacred Heart perished,
but this could not be ver' fed.
1t is estimate d that $1,000 persons
were rendered homeless, and that the
public property destroyed averages
$l5,0O0,0O0 (sucres). Goods destroyed
amount to SIS, ,00O,000 (sucres), and the
loss to the insurance companies about
$3,50o,000 (sucrcs).
About a fortnight after the fire the
vaults of the banks destroyed were
opened and all securities, etc, were
found intact.
A bill has been introduced into the
Colombian congress appropriating s3o,-
600 in gold to be devoted to the suffer-
ers of the recent Guayaquil fire.

SPANISH CRUELTY
Az Practiced in the Philippine

Dungeon 10 the Manila Fortress Made fos
Thir,y, In which Fir,y-N,ne Died Of
Filth and suffocation In u Single
Night Shot Duwp In Public.

LONDON, Nov. 8.-The Daily News
to-day publishes letter from an En-.
glish merchant in the Philippine is
lands that was dispatched to London
ON September 80. The writer alleges
that horrible atroaitie. have been per-
petrated by both the rebels and the
Spaniards, but more especially by the
latter, who torture their prisoners,
particularly when they are promi-
nent men, with view to forcing
them to copfesa completely in the re bel
lion. II declares that in soma cases
prisoners hands have been nailed to
walls, while in others thumb screws
have been used. A hundred prisoners
were thrown in one night into dun
geon in the fortress at Manila. where
there was hardly room for 80. The
place was worse than the black holo
OF Calcutta. The poor wretches were
up to their knees in filthy, putrid mud.
Flfty-nine of them died during the
night.
A reign Of terror exists in Manila
and elsewhere in the islands. Whole.
sale arrests are made daily Of limo.
cent-and guilty persons.
The writer adds that the rebellion
is due solely to the rotten and cor
rupt administration of the Spanards,
which the natives were unable to en-.
durc any longer. The outlook is of
the blacklist description and business
is at "a complete standstill.
The writer was compelled to leave
his estate, the government refusing to
guarantee his safety there.
Prisoners are executed by the whole
sale. In treating of this subject The
writer describes the shooting of four
men on the public promenade. The
troops held their rifles so close to the
heads of the condemned meA that
when the weapons were discharged
their heads were blown to atoms.
Crowds of Spanish women went to see
these four rebels executed.
