LOSS OF A MILLION.
FIRE CUTS A WIDE SWATH IN
COLORADO SPRINGS
Started In a Rubbish Heap and Wip-
ed Out a Strip Four Blocks
Long and Two Wide.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Col, Oct. 1.
This city had a visitation of fire this
afternoon which threatened for four
hours to destroy the entire business
district. The wind was blowing at the
rate Of forty-five miles an hour from
the southeast when the fire started at
the Denver & Rio Grande freight depot,
at the foot Of Chuchares street, at 2:10
p. M, and the flames spread with great
rapidity. A strip four blocks long,
from north to south, and two
blocks wide, from east to west, has
been burned over, but the conflagra-
ton is under control The flames are
still leaping high in the air all over the
burning district, but the wind has died
down, and there is no doubt that the
fire engines which have come from
Denver and Pueblo in response to ap-
peals for aid will be able to conf1ne the
flames within the present limits. The
Antlers hotel, one of the largest in the
West, the lumber yards and two blocks
Of business houses have been destroyed
In round numbers the loss is estimated
at $1,000,000; insured for half that
| amount. The losses estimated are as
follows:
Antlers hotel, $3.50, 900; Newton Lum-
ber company, 100000; Crissey & Fow-
Ter Lumber company, $50, 900; Ell Paso
Lumber company, $4,000; Irving &
Sons, blacksmiths, $1,000; Denver &
Rio Grande railroad, 100000; Gulf depot,
$4,000; Home hotel $4,000. General
losses Of business firms and individuals
not enumerated above, $465,O0O

Minnesota Soldiers Highly Praised
for Their Action at Manila.


WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-The reports
Of Gen. Thomas M. Anderson COM
manding the Second division of the
Eighth army corps, and Gen. MacAr-
thur, commanding the First brigade Of
that division, as to the operations about
Manila, were made public at the war
department today. Gen. Anderson had
charge of the first expedition. In his
report Gen. Anderson says:
'I ordered the First California, which
was the leading regiment in reserve, to
go to Gen. Green. Going to the reserve
telegraph 1 received a message from
Gen. Macarthur that his fire on the
block-house was effective, but that he
was enfiladed from the right. 1 knew
from this that he wished to push tho
insurgents aside and put in the Aston
battery. I then authorized him to at
tack, which he did, and soon after the
Twenty third infantry and the Thir-
teenth Minnesota carried the advanced
line of the enemy in the most gallant
manner, the one gun of the Utah bat
terry and the Astor battery lending most
effective assistance. The losses show
that the leading regiments of the First
brigade-Thirteenth Minnesota, TweIl-
ty-third infantry and the Astor bat
tery-met the most serious opposition
and deserve credit for their success.
The Colorado, California and Oregon
regiments, the regulars and all the bat
teries Of the Second brigade, showed
such zeal that 1t seems a pity that
they did not meet foemen worthy Of
their STEEL

LONDON, Oct 1.-The chief interest
of Europe, perhaps, centers on China,
where the fate of the emperor is still
uncertain, though 1t is the general opin-
ion that he has already been done 10
death by the dowager empress, who, it
appears, was once a barmaid in a Chi
nese liquor shop. The emperor of China
is known lately to have shown 1eanings
toward Christianity, and it was recent
ly reported that he had burned the
Confucian classics in the palace.
The man who Will now ascend the
throne of China is Yin, a grandson Of
Prince Kung. He IS a good looking,
intelligent young man of decidedly pro-
( reign leanings. Englishmen who have
met Yin declare that he will not be a
puppet like his predecessor. He has a
stronger will and, moreover, is not re-
lated to the dowager empress.
A resident of Pekin, DR.. Dugeon, who
is the only foreigner who ever dined
With Yin, asserts that the dowager en-
press is not opposed to him. He adds
that she was responsible for the IN
stallment of the electric light into the
palace, and introduced a railway and
electric launch into the palace grounds
She Is also said to have favored other
Western ideas.
1t is now said that the dismissal of
Lii Hung Chang, who was the friend Of
the dowager empress, and the strong
friend Of the Russians, and the exclu-
sion of Prince Kung, were the real
causes of the emperor's downfall The
l. - o.
tinuance of the old regime. The young
China party will not rest satisfied with
the existing state Of things. Kang
Yuwei the Cantonese reformer who is
safe at Hong Kong, under British pro-
lection, Is known as the modern sage
Of China. He is the leader of the re-
form party and the originator Of the
society formed in opposition to the GUS
tom of binding the feet Of Chinese girls.
SITUATION AT FASHODA.
The oyster-like reticence Of the Brit
ish government regarding the situation
at Fashoda and the intentions Of the
ministers in the matter is causing a
bitter outcry in the press. Even the
supporters of the government are dis
gusted The only hint on the subject
appears in the army order of the een-
manderin-chief OF the forces, Lord
Wolseley, on the conclusion Of Gen.
Kitchenei g campaign, in which he says:
THE campaign has resulted in the
reconquest of the valley Of the Nile
from the second cataract to the Sebal
