FIRE TAKES PIER AND SHIP.
Blaze Destroys Dock and British
Queen at Hoboken.

New York, March ia swift and
in many of it's details picturesque
fire last night destroyed the pier of
the Phoenix Steamship line on the
Hoboken river front. with many bales
of cotton and hay, burned that COM
panys vessel, the British Queen, to a
hulk, consumed several lighters and
their cargoes, damaged dock belong
ing to the Barber Steamship line and
for time threatened the property of
the HollandAmerican line and the
huge Campbell stores. The loss will
approximate $1.0e0,OO0.
Whether any lives were lost was
most difficult to learn. While the con-
fagration was at it's height and after
1t had been reduced by the firemen
and fire boats rumors were rife that
several men perished. 1t is tolerably
certain that Chief Engineer Scott of
the British Queen was burned to
death on her and that sailor named
Jansen met the same fate. One of
the men who escaped says that he saw
several men leap into the water when
the steamer became enveloped in fire
and he saw few. if any, of these res
cued. The quartermaster of the ruined
ship said that the crew were in her
forecastle and he surmised that if all
escaped they did so with difficulty.
1t is not unlikely that some of the
'longshoremen and stevedores, who
sWarmed about the vessel, will have to
be accounted for. The estimated
losses in detail are: Pier, $500, 900;
British Queen. 100000; cotton and
lighters, $25O,OOO.

saying a few cheerful words to each.
Meantime the guns of the squadron

Ate yesterday decided to give the first
place in the order of business in the
senate after disposing of the pending
business to the oleomargarine bill,
and to allow that to be followed by
the Chinese exclusion bill. The COM

the Nicaragua canal bill third place
on the calendar, but decided not to
act on that question, inasmuch as it
is considered probable that the discus

WORST OF BLIZZARD is OVER.
Cold Snap in Northwest Shows Signs
of Ah-%ino


st. Paul, March 1S.-The great
blizzard which had ragged over the
Dakotas and Manitoba since last Fri
day subsided last night and the
weather is generally fair but intensely
cold, the thermometer ranging from
10 to 16 below zero With the sub
sidence of the storm the railroads are
bending their energy to again open
their lines for traffic and immense
rotary snow plows and gangs of men
with pick and shovel are attacking
the mountainous drifts that block the
tracks. The Great Northern has sue
ceeded in opening it's line as far west
as Minot Ii all goes we'll, the coast
train that should have arrived in ST.
Paul last Saturday morning will get
here some time tomorrow. The
Northern Pacific expects. to have it's
road open again today and the through
trains that have been held at Mandan
in the west, and Fargo in the east,
will be restarted upon their Journeys.
In view of the fury and suddenness
of the storm, it is remarka able that so
few lives are reported lost. 1t is the
general belief that not above eight
or ten persons perished throughout the
storm swept region. A family of four
is reported to have perished near Mi
not, N. D., and two or three others
are said to have been frozen to death
in different. localities. The loss to
stock is hard to estimate. A report
from Dickinson, N. D.. places the loss
at from rs to 80 per cent, while rumor
places it in other localities at much
higher figure.
There has been good deal of suf-
fering among the new settlers, many
of whom arrived but recently and were
i'll prepared to withstand the severe
weather. but relief committees from
the older Inhabitants have taken
charge of this matter and are doing
their best to alleviate the needs Of
the newcomers.

Cedar Falls, Ia, March 14.-The
town of Stout, Ia, is much excited
over the disappearance of John Husu-
inius. cashier of the State bank of
Stout. He had an alteration with
customer of the bank. The passbook
OF the customer and the account which
le kept did not agree. There ap-
peared among his checks one which he
declared was forgery. In the heat
of the argument he openly accused
the cashier of forging his name and
scuffie ensued, in which the customer
did not loose possession of the check.
The sudden disappearance of the cash.
ier after this incident has given rise
to various rumors. A run on the bank
was attempted yesterday, but other
moneyed concerns came to the rescue
and no serious trouble followed.
