and 14O passengers. OF these thirty
were returning miners. who had sacks
of from $4,000 to $4,000 each. while sew
eral Vancouver merchants brought
large returns from their northern

Among the interesting news brought
by the Amur was that of the finding OF

dered last December with Clayson and
ReIfe, two other American citizens.
Olsons body was found on sand bar
near Selkirk, and was taken down to
Dawson By the steamer Yukoner.
Passengers leaving Dawson ten days
ago on the Columbian met the Yu-
koner going down the river There were
said to be several marks Of violence on
Olson's body when found, and the au-
thorities consider the evidence of his
murder conclusive.
A stampede of miners to the new
placers near Whitehorse is reported.
Dominion and Hunker creek elean-uDs

iIREMEN LOSE THEIR LIVES
FOUR KILLED AND SIX INJURED
IN PITTsBURG.
They Were Working Hard in the
Dense Smoke When a Floor Col
lapsed With Them.

Pittsburg, Pa, July 7-Pittsburg's
downtown business section was visited by
another disastrous fire -1day, the second
within week Fur me. are dead and
six others are in hospitals suffering from
injuries which may prove fatal All of
the victims were firemen.
The fire had its origin in the basement
of E. G. Evans a. Co.'S china and glass
ware establishment on Fifth avenue be.
tween Wood and Market streets. The
dense smoke from burning excelsior and
other material used in packing china
batf1ed the firemen for a long time, but
after fighting for more than an hour they
got the upper hand, though the building
was deluged With water.
At about 500 D. m. when all danger
seemed to have passed, ten members of
engine companies Nos. 4 and IL were
working on the second floor. knee deep in
water. The weight OF the water with the
already heavy weight on the floor in the
shape of the big jewelers. safe of God
dard Hin & Co, was too much. and the
floor gave way.
In its plunge down it dragged the third
floor along with II. CHAR through to the
cellar
The firemen were buried deep under the
debris and it was believed at fist none
would escape. Heroic efforts were made
by the remaining firemen to rescue their
comrades, and in little while they could
be cOnversed with, but they were still
pinned down by the masses Of debris.
To rescue Captain Campbell jack was
pushed forward and jacks were required
TO raise a large portion of the broken
floor. He was under the floor two hours
yet he was the least injured of al.
The money loss will reach $l00, 900, COW
cred by insurance.
