Another Destroyed, !,

Francis Beidler & Co.'S yard adjoining the Gousley property caught next, ard beiore the fire department steamers on the Chicago river could reach the plant it was entirely destroyed.
 The fire was most exciting one. Rail- road employees with bravery approaching recklessness took switch engines inside the tracks leading between the blazing lumber piles, and coupling to standing freight cars, dragged them out blazing from the heart of the lumber yards confagration. The flaming trains, as soon as they were outside of the lumber yards, were deluged by fire engines stationed for that purpose.
 The work was prosecuted by the railroad men until the heat from the lumber piles caused the rails to curl, pulling the spikes from the ties and rendering the tracks uSe- less.
 The gravest apprehensions as the fire spread were entertained. for the gas. tanks of the Peoples Gas Light and Coke conn pany.i The firemen realized that these were about as dangerous as powder magazines, and that a single spark might cause. an explosion frightful in it's consequences. A strong patrol of firemenJ with two engines and a quantity of other apparatuses was detailed for duty in the vicinity of the gas reservoirs.
 Explosion uS Grain Dust
 There was an explosion of grain dust in the elevator "D," which wrecked the in- iterier before the flames had made much progress The grain handlers at work in the elevator were compelled to slide down the chutes used for loading grains into the cars, and all of them escaped unin- jured.
 Armour's loss on grain will foot up $780, GOO, fully covered by insurance The e'eva- tor was valued at 900, and was also. in sured.
 At Up. m., although the fire was said to be practically under control, there were four acres of lumber piles still burning.
 Dennis Sween, the veteran chief of the fire department wasasseriousy injured His face was severely burned, his beard being completely singed off
 William Matherson, engineer of the ele vator, and his fireman, Dennis O'Connor, are missing.

 MAKES CONFESSION
Declares His Brothers Wife Had No Connection With the St.
 Helena Murder

SAN QUENTIN, Oct. 5.-In the shadow of the gallows George W. Clark, the St. Helena fratricide. has confessed that he and he alone Is responsible for the mur- der of his brother. Clark is to be hanged on Friday of next week. His crime was an atrocious one, he having murdered his brother because he was enamored of the latter's wife. and hoped to marry her. The confession is made in order to clear the woman of the suspicion that attached to her. It is as follows:
 To All Whom It May Concern-I, George w Clark, incarcerate, believing that I am about to die and sincerely desiring in these my last days on earth. that the truth with reference to the specific crime with which I stand charged, and for which I am to suffer death, shall be known, do hereby solemny state that I am and I alone am guilty of the same. That no one. myself alone. was in any way implicated in the same, either be, fore or after the fact, and that the same was wholly plotted planned arranged and exc cuted by myself with the knowledge con- sent directly or indirectly of one save my self only. I make this my last statement more particularly with reference to and to exon crate one Mrs. Lavina Clark, then wife, and present widow of William A. Clark. now de- ceased. 1 positively aver that she was not i'm plicated therein in any shape or form, and so far as my knowledeg goes, had no knowledge or suspicion thereof. G. w. CLARK.

 OC IN MANY SECTIONS.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SAVANNAH, Ga, Oct. 5.-News from the storm stricken districts along the coast is coming in gradually, and 1t is probable that hundred lives have been lost. News by way of a boat which ar rived to-day Is that fifty people were drowned at Ferdinandina.
 From Campbell Island, inhabited by about forty colored people, it is reported that all but three were drowned At Brunswick four people lost their lives, and at Jessup, 100 miles from the coast, one man was killed by building blown down by the storm.
 At Sterling Station Charles Wright, a merc-----, reports disasters from the flood to lives and property in the rice fields and in a portion of Glynn and Mcintosh. There are number of small islands at various points around BrunS- wick, Ferdinandina and Darien on which small groups of families lived. It will be some days before accurate re- ports are heard from these points. At Darien the water is reported high and the towns buildings damaged.
 The damage by wind and rain Is enor- nous and extends inland 100 miles in some cases. The damage to shipping Is also great. Near Darien the schooner Blanche Hopkins collided with small SCHOODeTt the Minnie, ana Sduk neT the Minnie had on board 5000 pounds of dynamite At Ferdinandina the tug Gladiator is said to have landed in the midst of the town. Mrs. Lucy D. Car negie's magnificent yacht, Dungeness, is badly damaged. The Cumberland Is land pilotbeat, Maud Helen, was landed high on a bluff in Fairbanks yard.

CHEATS THE GRIM REAPER. Charmed Life Borne by the Wife of
 an Alturas Freighter.

ALTURAS, Oct. 5.-An accident, the re- suit of which can be regarded as almost miraculous, befell Mrs. Jasper James of this city. MT. James is a freighter be- tween here and Amedee, and on his last trip was accompanied by his wife. They were seated upon an elevated seat and travelling at the freighter's usual gait Suddenly one of the wheels struck an ob- stacle of sufficient size to Jar Mrs. James from her high station
 In the course of her downward fall Mrs James slid oyer the forward part of the wagon and landed in the road immedi- ately in front of the wheels. MT James was unable to stop the team before the wheel had passed over his wife's pros trate form. When he assisted her to her feet he found that she had escaped un- Injured. The wagon weighed a ton at least, and the only explanation of the woman's narrow escape from death Is that the road Is covered with rocks and them.

DENVER, Oct. 5.-When the court martial which is hearing testimony in the case of Chaplain Mcintyre of the Oregon was called to order this morn ing the cross examination of the de- fendant, which was begun yesterday was resumed.
 In answer to the question of the judge advocate regarding what he intended to say in his lecture about the division of prize money the chaplain explained that Commodore Winfield $. Schley was the first commander he ever sailed with. He felt very friendly toward Commodore Schley and believed that he should have received the major part of the honor and emoluments of the battle. He in- tended to say to the audience that the division of the prize money would be in the proportion of $10,000 to the ad- miral, $500 to Captain Clark and $75 to officers of his own rank. He had no idea of giving these as the amounts each would receive.
 The witness said his intention was to say that when the battle began the Ore- gOn took her assigned position on the inner line, as she did so passing the Iowa going the other way to assume the position assigned to her. He in
 
 rendered he saw several of the Ameri- can vessels half-hull down to the east ward, and that while the boarding parties from the Oregon and Brooklyn were going to the Colon the other Yes- sels came up He declared that he made no assertion to the effect that Admiral Sampson reported himself within four miles in order to get prize money. He was aware that the ad- miral was entitled to his share of the prize money, regardless of his distance from the fight
 Chaplain Mcintyre on redirect ex- animation stated that he had the brandy of which he drank on the night of the lecture in a four-ounce bottle Indicating on a similar bottle the amount he drank it was shown that he took about Cne-third of the contents
 Alonzo A. Anson, an engineer, testi- fled that he was quite intimate with Chaplain Mcintyre in 1894, and that on the night of the lecture the chaplain did not recognize him even after he had told his name. Witness thought the chaplain had the manner of a man un- der the influence of liquor. During the lecture the chGplain's manner was not natural.
 Dr. H. T. Pershing, physician in charge of insane and nervous patients at the Arapahoe County Hospital, was called as an expert. He expressed the opinion that a man in the physical and nervous condition of Chaplain McIn- tyre who took eighteen grains of qui- nine and over an ounce of brandy would become intoxicated. Witness said the effect of intoxication is to re- move restraints in action and speech. In most cases what an intoxicated man says has some relation with what he thinks when sober.

A NASTY FIRE.
1t Was Finally Extinguished With
Not Very Much Damape.

The alarm Of fire last night about II
O'Clock was caused by a blaze in the
basement under the saloon of George
III. Jones at GIG Seventh street.
The basement was full of crates with
hay and stuff from the Sacramento
Glass and Crockery Company's store.
and was blind fire and very hard to
get at, the basement being SO full of
smoke that no man could live in it and
1t poured up in dense clouds through
the openings in the sidewalk. A hole
was finally cut through a partition and
the plucky firemen ventured down
where 1t seemed as if no man could
breathe for a minute. A hole was also
cut through the floor of the saloon to
enable another line Of hose to be run
down. but it was not until Chief Guth-
RE cut hole through the 1t-inch
brick wall in the alley that he gained
control of the fire.
The fire was a nasty one and looked
Tor time as If it would be hard TO
control on account of the difficulty Of
getting at it, but it was handled with
excellent judgment. The loss is esti-
mated to be between $500 and $500
most of it falling on the saloon. which
was badly damaged by water and the
hole in the floor
