NEW YORK FIRE SPECTACULAR.
Myrisds of People Given a Succession
of Real Thrills.

m1F1ao8 OF feopie SiSen succession
of Real Thrills.
New York--All OF Wall street and
the downtown district were thrown in
to excitement recently by a fire which
started in the building at 81 Broad
way. occupied by the Morris European
& American ExI ress company.
The FIRE spread to the adjoining
building, occupied by the Adams Ex-
press Co., but was brought under con
troll shortly after 1 o'clock, nearly two
hours after its start. and at that time
the loss was estimated by an under
writer at $4o0, 900, but nothing could
be learned regarding the insurance.
When the neighborhood in which
the fire occurred is taken into consid-
GRAFTON, 1t is the most spectacular day
time blaze that has occurred for a
long time in that part of the city.
Thousands of people poured forth from
the thickly populated financial dis
tricts into the narrow canyon on Broad
way, and massed back for squares
above and below the blaze. The tow
ering skyscrapers that faced the fire
had a group Of people at every win
dow.
The burning buildings reached
through to a narrow alley on the rear,
and through it swept clouds OF smoke
into Broadway, SO thick that only &C.
casionally could the flames be seen.
The smoke rolled up the street. hem
med in by the tall buildings, and great
flaming brands fell thiekly in the
crowds.
Closely following the first alarm
another was turned in, and then, with
the Baltimore fire in mind. a two
nine," the dreaded general alarm, fol-
lowed. Engine after engine, followed
by their hose trucks, water towers and
ladder trucks, swept changing down
Broadway, the only street Of access
to the fire, bringing in their wake ad-
ditional thousands Of people to swell
the crowd that already packed every
inch of standing room in the vicinity
Bursting hose and a black roll of
choking smoke now and then drove
them back, and aided the police re-
serves to clear the streets.

BRITT Is CHAMPION.
Wins Decision From Young Corsett in
Twenty Rounds.

Twenty Rounds.
James Britt OF California was given
the decision over William Rothwell,
better known as Young Corbett" of
Colorado, in 20 round contest at San
Francisco. Up to the 18th round Cor
belts advantage was apparent. but in
that round Britt rallied and rained
right and left blows on various por-
lions of Corbett's anatomy, forcing the
champion to clinch to save himself.
The styles of the two boxers were en-
body most Of the time, while Corbett
devoted himself to the face, head and
jaw. Britt weighed just 129 pounds,
but Corbett's weight was not made
public, though it is understood it was
at least pound and half below the
agreed weight, 100 pounds.
Both men fought hard in every
round. Britt, in his crouching atti-
tude, was able to guard his stomach
effectively, though Corbett was able to
land hard on his head and jaw. In the
first few rounds Britt found the Den
yer mans stomach repeatedly, though
his blows lacked steam.
A Great Fight.
1t was without doubt the greatest
fight fought in California. Britt's abil-
ity to assimilate punishment and his
endurance were simply marvellous. At
no time during the 20 rounds did Britt
break ground. He always brought the
| fight to Corbett. Britt was severely
punished, yet was at all times willing
to take more, and finally outgamed
men set was of nature to make both
tired. However, their condition, after
minutes respite, brought them to the
center of the ring with renewed vigor.
Britt was better at the outfghting;
Corbett superior in the infghting. Britt
had the best footwork and the greatest
| speed. Corbett showed himself the
cleverer fighter at times and the heav-
Ter hitter.
After the fight Referee Eddie Graney
said: 81 simply gave the decision to
the man who had the best of the
fight"
Up to the 18th round Corbett had
the better of the fight, but from this
round on Britt outfought Corbett at
every stage Of the game.
When Corbett reached his dressing
room he burst into tears.
There were about 5000 people in
attendance. The club officials state
that the receipts would total about
$40 1000. which is the greatest amount
ever contested for by fighters of Cor
belts and Britt's calibre. Included in
the assemblage were prominent sport
| ing men from all over the country.

MINING News.

Judging from the amount of work
in progress this winter in the mines
Of Cape Nome the output of gold next
spring will be the greatest in the his
tory Of tho peninsula And what is
remarkable in this statement is the
fact that none of the big companies is
operating on an extensive scale.
Electrolytic copper is strong and
higher. It is reported the Calumet is
willing to sell 5000, 900 pounds of cop
per at 1870. March copper exports
promise 10000 tons. The largest pro-
ducers declare stocks are small. both
in producers and consumers hands.
With the coming of spring, mining
operations throughout Montana begin
to show considerable activity and de-
velopment work is being carried on ex-
tensively. A deal by which the Gold
en-Sunlight group of mines, five miles
northeast of Whitehall. was transfer
red to Eugene Ring was consummat-
ed during the weeA. and the purchaser
has gone to New York. where he will
arrange to work the claims on large
him.
The steamship Cottage City has ar
rived in Seattle from Skagway. Alas
ka, with sSS,00e in gold bricks.
Military law is in operation in two
Colorado counties-San Miguel and
Las Animas. Reports from both dis
tricts are to the effect that conditions
at present are peaceful. At Telluride.
San Miguel county, press censorship is
exercised and no news is sent out ex-
cept such as is approved by the mill
tary authorities. No press censorship
has yet been established at Trinidad
or other towns in tho coal fields.
After FIVE years of litigation the
celebrated Sixteen to One mining case
has been amicably settled out of court
and within a short time this well
known property will again be number
ed among the producers of tho Occur
d'Alenes.
The carload OF exhibits that will
represent the Occur d'Alenes at the
St. Louis worlds fair is on its way to
st. Louis. The total weight of the
specimens is over 10000 pounds, the
weight Of the large ones varying from
1000 to 5000 pounds each.
