New York, Jan. l0.--rhe handsome
dwelling of Joseph Pulitzer, the pro-
prietor Of the New York World, in
East Flfty-iifth street, was destroyed
by fire today and At least one life was
lost. When the flames had been eX-
tinguished the bodies of two women
were found, badly burned. One il be-
lieved TO be that of Miss Elizabeth
Montgomery, the goyerness and the
other was identified as that of the
housekeeper, Mrs, Jellett, In one
hand was firmly clutched small bag
into which IL Is believed she tried TO
thrust some of her personal effects
before leaving her room.
At the time the fire began there
were in the house, Mrs. Pulitzer, her
daughters, Edith, ID years old, and
Constance, 12, and Mrs. Pulit2ers
baby son, two months old, and 22 SER
wants. Mr., Pulitzer and his son,
Joseph, Junior, are at Lakewood, ~,
j.
Mrs. Pulitzer was awakened at 1850
by cracking noise She detected
the smell Of smoke and almost inn
medlNtely ofterward, the electric fire
alarm sounded.
Mrs. Pulitzer ran TO one Of the doors
of the room, but found it locked. The
other was open and, taking her chill
dren, she started down stairs shouting
the alarm,
After placing Edith and Constance
in the street she hurried up to the
third floor and found the nurse with
the baby in her arms, about to get
out on the fire escape. The woman
was hysterical.
Mrs. Pulitzer quieted the nurse, took
the baby from her and together they
went to the street,
John 0'Connor, the second butler,
had a narrow escape He slept on
the top floor with another servant
He was aroused by Mrs, Pulitaefs
cries and finding the smoke coming
thicltly upward, walked out along the
window ledge to the roof of the nc~'
house.
The origin of the FIRE is unknown,
but it is thought IL must have started
in the basement or in the lower story
by defective electric insulation, 1t
spread with great rapidity and went
straight upward and in short while
was blazing from the roof.
The fremen, realizing that the
house could not be saved, devoted
their energies to adjoining properly
The house contained valuable his
torical library and many carefully
selected works Of art. Nothing OF
value was saved.
The second body found in the
burned Pulitzer dwelling was identi-
fled positively as that of the govern
ess, Miss Elizabeth Montgomery
Death was caused by suirocation.
While n crew of l2 firemen were ut
work on the third floor, the floor fell,
carrying them to the second floor
Lieut.. lIauck was painfully hurt but
remained at work. The loss will be
fully 100000.

Demand For American Coal.

The Pittsburg Times says; Export
ing American bituminous coal is a
subject that just now is attracting the
keenest interest among Pittsburg coal
men. Recent statements have ap-
peared that England and Russia have
been looking to this country for large
quantities of COAL and only yesterday
there appeared in the Times the an
nouncement that inquiries had been
made by the British government as to
the probabilities of securing 100000
tons of American coal for her own
use. Until recently foreign demand
for American coal was comparatively
insignificant. This was due to the
fact that English coal practically held
the monopoly of the trade with all for
eign countries. The change has been
brought about by several circumstan-
ces. One Of these was the great strikes
among the miners of England which
made the supply run short and COM
PEELED the consumers to look else
where for the deficiency, while another
and far more significant one is the fact
that the English coal fields are now
practically worked to their limit and
that 1t is not likely she will ever be
able to care for any increased demand
in the foreign market.

Queen Victoria VIII Visit Ire.
land Again

London, March 7.--At no other time
since the diamond jubilee has the
queen been SO conspicuous an object In
the public mind as she is tonight. This
promises to be even more strikingly
the case tomorrow. Her Majesty's
visit to London. for drive in semi
state from Paddington station to
Buckingham palace, would be sufficient
in itself to create public manifesto
tions OF loyalty, but the announcement
this evening, thatfor the first time
since the jubilee she will tomorrow
drive from buckingham palace along
the embankment to st. Paul's cathed-
raj and back, through Holborn and
Picea1illy, to st. James. synchroniz-
ing with the success of Lord Roberts,
is bound to make tomorrow a gala day
in the annals of London.
Beyond all this is the announcement
OF the queens intention to visit Ire
land-for the first time, it is said since
the death of the prince consort This
is regarded as one of the most remark
able acts of the queens life. No min
lister of the crown ever dared suggest
such a remarkable undertaking.
THE trip" said a well informed Of
fetal this evening, "is the spontaneou;
suggestion of the queen alone, and the
enthusiasm it is bound to create when
known in London tomorrow can
scarcely be estimated. 1t is a wonder-
full proof of her majesty's intense de-
votion to her people, and her sacrifice
in making the trip, at such season OF
the year is renewed evidence of the
keenness of her mind in selecting the
proper act at the proper time"
Dublin, March Earl Cadogan an
nounced the queens intended visit
this evening at the drawing room. The
news had previously been telegraphed
by the various news agencies and was
already known throughout the city
causing much good feeling
Her majestys visit will be of pri
vate character, such as she is in the
habit of making periodically to the
south OF France. 1t will probably ex.
tend for more than fortnight Hel
last visit was in 1861.

Debtless and Taxless Town.

The historic town of Guilford has
broken the record for New England
thrift and economy. For political
economists it will henceforth be held
up as a model of prudent government.
The town has just voted to lay no
tax whatever for the coming year. 1t
has all the money on hand that it
needs, will have more from the sale Of
franchises before the year expires and
it has no debt.
When the annual town meeting was
held today thee was passed a unani-
nous vote not to levy town tax, be-
cause there was no need of it, and its
collection and investment would be q
bother. For four years tax of only
10 mills has been laid. Guilford is the
first town in New England to go a year
without tax levy since the landing of
the pilgrims.-New Haven Spe. Chic
