The electric railroad employees had
considerable trouble last evening dur
ing the storm. From Narragansett ave-
nue. the flashes of light from the River
point cars beyond Sockanossett could
be plainly seen. while on Cranston

"a blaze.
Saturday evening a number of boys
were seen busily engaged in jamming
stones into a switch below the barn.
The first car which came along made a
terrible noise and almost jumped the
track. A bystander who witnessed
the occurrence went in search of po-
liceman, but in the meantime the young
sters decamped. A car was derailed
Saturday evening at NarraSansett

tached post at Taguig. about q mile

driving them across to an islani formed
by the estuary. They were thus in
front OF the Twenty second regulars.
On discovering that they were en-
trapped the rebels fought desperately,
aided materially by the jungle and the
darkness, but they were completely
routed, with heavy loss, after two
hours fighting. The Americans lost
two killed and 30 wounded, among the
latter Lieutenant Frank Jones.
General Wheaton determined to pun
ish the ntives, and at dsybreak today
his brigade started in the following or
der: The Sixth artillery, holding the
extreme right; the Oregon volunteers,
holding the center, the Washington
regiment keeping to the edge Of the
lake, and the Twenty second regulars.

swept the whole country along the lake
within a southeasterly direction, to-
ward General Overshine's position.
The line thus extended over two miles
of country. rough and covered with
thick Jungle, advanced eloven miles.
The enemy fed. the last of them being
seen about $3.50 this afternoon. At
scarcely any time did the Americans
get within 1900 yards Of them.

Among the incidents OF yesterdays
fighting was the coolness exhibited by
a company of Washington volunteers,
who crossed the river in native canoe
under heavy fire, 10 being taken
across on each trip of the small boat,
to attack the enemy's trenches. The
inability of the commits sary train to
keep up with the advance led to con-
siderable suffering; Gnd many of the
men were completely exhausted when
they we're recalled, and, falling from
the ranks. were strung along for dis.

turning to cam in the artillery ambu-
lances. which were always close up to

New York, March 30. - Flames
which originated from the igniting OF
lace curtain, burst forth from the Sec
ond floor OF the Windsor hotel, at Forty
seventh street and Fifth avenue. short
ly after 8 O'Clock this afternoon, just
as the 81. Patrick's day parade was pas
sing the building, and in few mo.
ments they had leaped to the roof and
enveloped the entire Fifth-avenue and
Forty-seventh street fronts of the hotel.
Ten minutes later the flames we're roar
ing through the interior of the hotel,
and all escape by means of the stair
ways and elevators was cut off.
There was the widest scene OF excite
ment within and without the building.
Hundreds OF guests and employees were
in the hotel when the FIRE broke out,
and for many OF them to escape with
safety was impossible. Probably Is
lives were lost within half hour, and
as or 30 persons were injured in jump
ing from windows and in rushing
through the roaring flames in the cor
ridors and stairways. Many who were
injured died later in nearby residences
and at hospitals, and Others who made
wild leaps to the stone sidewalk were
so badly injured that they are still
hoveriDg between life and death. II
may be "a hours or more before the
complete list Of fatalities becomes
known, and it will be longer than tha
