BIC FIRE IN pTTTssuRe.

PITTSBURG. March 15.-In a fire that threatened the entire Mount Washington section of this city, 2s business structures and dwellings were today destroyed or damaged, causing a loss estimated at s200, 900.
 Many of the dwellings were tene- ments or Apartment houses, and there were many narrow escapes. The structures were mostly of frame con struction and because of the break in the water main the only available fire quenching materials were chemicals from. extinguishers and buckets. Two attempts were made to stop the flames by dyfiamiting buildings on either side but each time the wrecksge caught fire It finally burned out.

MARKETS CONDITION Is
 IMPROVED
Relief In Money Situation Af- forded by Government Rescues Financial World From Disastrous Panic.

NEW YORK, March 15.--Aa unusual scene was enacted on the floor of the Stock Exchange today just after the market closed strong and hsfoyaitt in sharp contrast to the demoralization of yesterday. Brokers gathered around the trading posts and cheered loudly in relief. The feature of the day was the statement of William Rockefeller who said:
 The decline in prices yesterday is a mystery to me; with prosperity all over the country see no reason for it. My associates have been buyers, not sellers during the last ten days. Peo- pie who were throwing away securities at panic prices will regret it within six months.'
 t Today's market opened retS strong at much higher prices than yester- days closing figures. There were the usual reactions, but the tone held rela- lively strong.
 It is known in the market that the bankers reached their offices early and made careful investigation of the situation, but did not reveal any anxiety as to the solyency of any bank ing or brokerage house This know ledge had much effect on the market, together with the announcement of gov ernment relief in the money market which gave traders confidence in a situation that threatened grave danger. Trading continued active, the general tone being firm and the IS per cent money rate having little effect.
 The close showed the following ad- rances: Amaigamated Copper, IS {: Anaconda. 95s; St. Paul, 9a4; Read ing, 12A; Southern Pacific, Az: Union Pac fic, 11A.. Hundreds of thousands of shares are believed to have been taken by bargain hunters.
 The rumor that Hartman had lost control of the Union Pacific was in stantly denied and had no effect

GARFIELD TO INSPECT INDIANS.

WASHINGTON, March 15.-James R. Garfield, new secretary of the in terior. wifi spend two months in Okla homa and Indian Territory the coming summer in the study of the Indian question at close range. Governor Franz of Oklahoma. former Rough Rider, has been in Washington trying to have something done to bring the officials in high places in closer touch with the Indian problem. Today the territorial governor received from Secretary Garfield the latter's outline of plan to study the question on the ground.
 The policy of having cabinet officials get out into the remote spots and study the problems confronting their respective departments has reached its climax under the Roosevelt admin istration. Secretary Taft has been to the Philippines once since he became secretary of war and is going again this year. Secretary Root has been among the Central and South Ameri- can states, and the president has seen the dirt fly at Panama.

NEW LIFEBoAT BOUGHT.
Lieut.. Sutton Then Told He May Use
One Condemned, if He Desires.

Several weeks ago inspectors from the Of
flee of the local inspectors Of steam vessels
for this district came over from Baltimore
and after looking over the harbor police
boat Vigilant decided that her metallic life
boat did not come up to the requirements
as to size, and Lieut.. Sutton was instructed
to get a larger boat for the tug, in order to
a cost Of over 500 the boat was built at
Baltimore, and about week ago was ship
ped to this city. Lieut.. Sutton asked to
have 1t inspected, and as the Baltimore
men were all busy, Capt. John CAST, the
supervising inspector for the district, who
was in this city attending meeting Of the
board of supervising inspectors, made the
examination. After looking the new boat
over Capt CAST looked at the boat that had
been removed from the Vigilant, and meas
uring it, decided that it was amply large
for the Vigilant, and would have filled all
the requirements of the law, and Sergt
Dean, the pilot of the police boat was told
by Mr. CAST that he could use either boat
on the tug.
Regarding the passenger limit for the Wig
liant, the inspector informed Lieut.. Sutton
that he could pack passengers on the tug
as thick as sardnes in box and would
violate no law, provided there were enough
life preservers aboard and no fare is
charged for their use. The disagreement of
the doctors regarding the boats has cost
the District several hundred dollars as the
f1reboat was also required to get new me-
tallic lifeboats by the Baltimore inspectors

SCARCITY OF OYSTERS.
Supply Aboard Vessels at the Wharf
Entirely Exhausted.

The supply of oysters in the shell aboard
vessels at the wholesale market on the
wharf at the foot Of 18th street southwest
was completely exhausted yesterday aft
ernoon. 1t is doubtful when fresh supply
of the bivalves will arrive aboard vessels.
as the ice prevents them from being towed
to this market They may come within
the next three or four days or 1t may be
ten days. The schooner M. ]. Stephenson,
Capt Joe Lawrence. is at Quantico with a
cargo Of about 600 bushels of oysters
aboard. She will be brought here as soon
as 1t Is safe to tow her through the ice.
While there are no oysters aboard vessels
at the wharf, the dealers there have about
thousand bushels on hand to meet the de-
mand of the next week. When these are
exhausted the oyster lovers will have to
depend upon Norfolk and Baltimore to
meet the demand. and it is likely an oyster
famine will result. The dealers at the
wharf are asking from $11O to $3.50 per
bushel in the shell, or 81. 20 to 81. go per gal
Ion for oysters shucked.
