THE POSTAL TELEGRAPH BUILDING
On Broadway New York: Destroyed BY Fire This Morning

The Postal compsny's wires out of
this city are all destroyed and it will
take ten days to establish a new office.
The fire had practically burned itself
out by 8 o'clock this morning.
The fire which destroyed the Postal
building originated in Rogers, Peet s.
Co.'s clothing store, situated.on a cor
ner next to the towering white
Home Insurance compsny's building.
The Postal building came next, alec on
a corner, and the flames spread to both
great structures.
The Postal building was erected in
1894, and was fourteen stories high. 1t
was one of the finest business blocks in
New York. The material used in its
construction was dark gray sand stone
and the equipments were entirely
modern.
Electricity WAS used throughout for
heating and lighting purposes and was
used for cooking by the Hardware
club which occupied the fourteenth
floor.

have him in custody and are dickering
with his creditors for share of the
money found on him.
Rumors of the capture of Gillett
were confirmed this afternoon at the
Office of the George Holmes Commits
sion company, to the effect that offers
had been made to turn up Gillett for q
consideration, and that the offers would
probably be accepted.
1t was learned at the stock yards late
this afternoon that T. J. Eamsn of the
Kansas City Live Stock Commission
company had received q message from
the northern border of Old Mexico,
saying that Gillett was in custody, and
asking what proportion of the money
found on him the Kansas City commits
sion men were willing to give his
captors if they turned him over.
Charles.A. Schaeffer of the George
Holmes Commission company swore
out warrant charging Gillett with
obtaining $l9,5OO by false pretenses.
1t was given TO an officer, who
left tonight for Old Mexico to
bring Gillett back, The commission
men and attorneys are absolutely
positive that he is In custody, but all
fear that it may be difficult m after to
bring him back on extradition papers.

FRIARS TORTURED.
Awful Stories of Bdrbarities praC-
ticed By Filipino Insurgents.


SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. st is re-
ported that since Aguinaldo, the Phil
ippine chief, renoupced the Catholic
church, series Of prosecutions
against the friars has been
begun. The persecution of these men
is said to surpass the cruelties practic-
ed in China and other semi-bar bar1c
countries.
1t is reported that the insurgents
last week captured number of friars
near Manila and took them to the
woods, tying them to stakes and burn
ing them to death by slow degrees.
1t is reported that Aguinaldo has
ordered that a number of expeditions
be sent to the Visays Islands. Agui-
naldo proposes to take posses
sion of them, and further COM
plications with the American govern
ment may ensue. Several commanders
of high rank have separated from
Aguinaldo. Mscanulos, one of his
lieutenants, is said to have attempted
to displace Aguinaldo in lead ership.

"We we're prohibited from shipping
ore," said Mr.. Lee, "snd after the
