of the third floor of the Andrews home,
where they found Mrs. st. John and her
3-year-old son, Wallace, unconscious on
the floor. their night clothes almost
burned off. They were quickly taken
into the Rothschild house. Mrs. st.
John died within a few minutes. Her
child died in the fireman's arms. The

Dublin, April S.-The returns from the
Irish county council elections have not

known to show that the Unionists have
suffered disaster, majority of the seats
going to the Nationalist. Among the
Unionist candidates defeated are Baron
Castletown, Baron Langford, Earl of

Frightful Leap of Jennie Burns-Thril1-
ing Rescue-Recovery OF Bodies.
All efforts to arouse the inmates in
time to save themselves were fruitless,
and aside from Mrs. st. John the only
other persons who got out of the house
alive were the two servants, Jennie
Burns and Alice White. who appeared
at the upper windows terror-stricken,
and jumped needless of the cries of fire
men that they would raise ladders and
save them. Jennie Burns leaped out
first. She turned over and over and
fell almost directly upon her head. Her
skull was fractured in several places.
The other woman, when she saw the
fate of her friend, hesitated for a mo-
ment. Then the smoke thickened and
she, too, jumped. She fell upon a rear
extension of the building and was picked
up unconscious and severely injured.
While the fire in the Andrews house
was raging great clouds of sparks were
carried with the wind. and brand flew
into an open upper window of the home
of Albert J. Adams. 1t caught in a
curtain and instantly the room was
ablaze- a servant at the window is
thought to have been Mary Loughnan,
for her dead body was found later.
Tightly clasped in her arms was the
family pet dog. When the Adams house
caught fire a number of the policemen
and firemen gained entrance and got the
Adams family out without serious in
jury. The servants were frantic in
their efforts to escape, and Mary Malloy
and Minnie Bogue jumped from the rear
of the fourth floor to the extension,
from which they were taken down.
Nellie Quinn was cut off on the fourth
floor, and appearing at front window
put her hand over her eyes and jumped
as she thought, to the ground, but in
stead landed the roof of the bay
window one story below, and lay there
stunned. Policemen Wagner, McIner-
ney and Hillman saw the womans peril.
and running into the house at No.
went to the fourth floor. Wagner was
held by the heels and made a thrilling
rescue of the woman.
About o'clock the firemen had suffi-
cient mastery over the fire to permit of
a search OF the Andrews house. They
found the bodies of the two remaining
ST. John children and the bodies of what
are thought TO be the two servants.
the firemen found Andrews body 1t
was badly burned and parts of the legs
were missing. Then the workers in the
debris found body which was identified
later by a dentist as that of Mrs An
drews AT various other times after
this the workers found the charred re-
mains of four more persons. probably
the servants. Two OF them were iden-
titled as the bodies OF Eva Peterson and

BACKWARD SPRING EFFECTS
Felt In the Business World, but the Price
Situation Is Favorable.

Situation Is Favorable.
New York. April S.-Bradstreet's says:
The quieter tone of distributive trade is
even more marked this week than last,
testifying to the unfavorable effect up
on retail trade, and indirectly upon job
hing distribution, of the cold, backward
spring and less favorable wheat crop
advices. While reports as to damage to
winter wheat are most numerous from
the southwest the influences of the
backward season have tended to moder-
ate the hitherto very cheerful tone Of
adyices from the spring wheat states
Other features of the week are further
quieting down of the excitement in iron
and steel, though here lack of supplies
and not lack of consumptive demand is
assigned as the chief reason.
Lumber is feeling the influence of ex-
banding spring demand at many mar
kets and prices are very strong. The
situation in textiles is little changed.
Cotton is slightly lower on fuller crop
movement, but manufactured goods are
firm. Wool and woolens are rather
quiet. though fall orders for women's
wear goods are encouraging and the raw
product is steady. The situation as re-
CARDS prices is still a very favorable
one, the list of staples advancing or re-
naming steady being by far the most
numerous, while bank clearings statis-
tics. railroad earnings and all other OBJ
tainable measures of trade progress
point to an immense business, specula-
tive and otherwise, having been done
during the first quarter of the year 1899.

BANDIT HUNTERS D1seUsTED.
Outwitted by The Union Pacific Out
laws in "a 2,OO0-Mile Chase.

Casper, wyo., June 26-For the past
few days the man hunters of the trail
of the Curry gang which dynamited the
Union Pacific express train have been re-
turning to their homes. abandoning the
hunt and despairing of earning the SIS, 900
head money. These members of the posse
ridicule the idea of arrests of these men
having been made at many points, as ,e-
ported. They assert the outlaws have out
witted their pursuers at every turn and are
today in the Businesses of the Robbers
Roost country with a plentiful supply of
horses. food, ammunition, and all their
booty, estimated at 100000. They were
chased for nearly 1000 miles in a circle
The pioneer bandit hunters here believe
the men have escaped permanently unless,
perhaps, some OF the bandits may be
picked off by Indian scouts who are trail
ing them, or are ambushed, but these
methods are hard to use against the out
laws for they are splendid woodsmen
themselves. They are the superior OF In
dians. The express company has already
spent $4,000 in this chase for days wages,
guns. ammunition. and special trains.
