Particulars of the Conflncrntton.
SPOKANB FALLS , Wash. , August 0. The
wires are in such condition that somewhat
fuller particulars can bo given of Sunday's
conllngrutlon. When the flro started the
spectators supposed it would bo speedily
brought under control by the firemen. This
could have been done if bettor precautions had
been taken , but the superintendent of the
waterworks wns out of the city and for some
reason the men In charge failed to respond
to the call lor more pressure. The tire
spread rapidly nnd block after block yielded
to the demon of destruction.
The Grand hotel , Washington block ,
Eagle block , Tull block , New Granite block ,
Cushlng building , Fulls City opera bouse ,
Hyde building , nil the banks nnd , in luct ,
every house between Hallrond avenue north
to the river , and from Lincoln street east to
Washington street , with the exception of n
few buildings in the nortneast corner , were
totally destroyed. Meanwhile n sudden
change In the direction of the wind carried
the lire southward across Railroad avenue
und destroyed the Northern Pacllio passen
ger und freight depots and snvernl cars. The
freight depot was n splendid structure and
was filled to the roof with valuable local
merchandise , very little of which was suved.
About 10 o'clock the Howard street bridge
over the river went down. A boom of logs
took lire nnd burned for hours on the surface
of t ho river. Muny tl mes pillars of Dro covered
the river , Igniting the mammoth lumber nnd
ilourmg mills that line its banks. By heroic
effort Its career was checked on the south
side of the stream.
The burned district embraces thirty blocks
besides the depot. The only brick business
houses left are the Crescent block nnd Amer
ican theater. The schools , churches , college
and hospital were beyond the line of the
burned district und nor.o were lost.
It Is impossible at present to estimate the
loss with any degree of accuracy , but it will
not fall short of 310.000,000. with an insur
ance of about half that amount. The bunks
have obtained temporary quarters and sev
eral have opened for business.
The work of clearing the debris away has
already commenced , and the work of re
building will begin nt onco. The llrcmon
nro blowing down dangerous walls nnd the
militia company Is guarding the burned dis
trict , while mounted police patrol the entire
tity.Tho
The city council held a meeting last night
and discussed a resolution prohibiting the
erccMnn of wooden buildings in the burned
district. A mass meeting of citizens sus
tained it , and the measure will bo passed by
the council ut Its meeting Wednesday even-
inc. The council passed a resolution revok
ing the license of all hotels nnd restaurants
and dealers In provisions who advance their
prices. Only two saloons remain , and they
have boon closed by order of the mayor.

Illpnnlyta Butchers Prisoners nnd
LcRltlino HctnlliitcM.
NEW YOIIK , August O.--Tho' Times this
morning had a dispatch fromPort-au-Prlncc ,
Hnytl , dated July 23 , which state , that Lcgl-
tlmo cut the throats of eight prisoners of
war In the market place , In retaliation of the
butchery of prisoners by Hlppolyto. Hippo-
ly to Is advancing nearer nnd nearer each day.
Tlmo nnd ngatn the southern lender has prepared -
pared for fight , but on each occasion tbo ap
peals of the pcoplo and the representations
of his generals have Induced him to Hold n
little longer. Fear bordering ou frenzy ap
pears to have seized hold of many of Log I-
time's soldiers ; they refuse to stand , nud it
only remains for the contagion to bccomo
universal to enable Hlppolyto to march unop
posed Into the capital of the south.
The idea of offering quarter to surrender
ing troops has long died out , and capture
now means something ivorso than death.
The Inhabitants of Port-nu-Prlnco oxpcct
no mercy should Hlppolyto's men ever force
an entrance Into the city.
Despair has seized many , whllo others
await the end with in differ onco.
On July 20 Hlppolyto made an attack on
ono of Logltlmo's strongholds. All tbo
available men in the city were pushed for
ward and , with considerable Impetuosity ,
attacked Hlppolyto. The latter be.it u hasty
retreat , carrying nwav with him eighteen of
the garrison. Of these unfort.inato men ,
some wcro shot on reaching Hlppolyto's
camp , others bad their throats cut in sight
of the army , and others wcro executed for
the amusement of the troops. Spies reported
tbis net to Legltlmo and the latter ordered
nil the prisoners on hand taken to the mar
ket placo. There wcro eight of them In nil ,
nnd , tied arm to arm , they wore led ,
strongly guarded , to the open square. Hero
an Immense crowd had collected. Ono by
ono the men were gagged , and then their
throats were cut with the utmost delibera
tion , the crowd yelling vociferously as each
man fell quivering to the ground. Ono man
managed to tear off his gag , nnd Illlod tbo
air with the most piercing cries of fright.
This pleased the crowd so much that the
gags of all the remaining prisoners wcro
taken off , nnd the cries of agony of the
wretched men fairly rent the nlr. When
the butcher was completed a great cheer for
Legitimo went up from the crowd , and it
was evident that the southern leader had
gained a point in the confidence of bis fol
lowers.
The American consul nnd tbo captain of
nn Atlas line steamer witnessed the above
scene , and can verify the report.

THE DETAILS OF THE CAPTURE.
Nothlne Very Blood Curdling , No
Thrilling Hltuntlons Nor Narrow
Kflonpcs , But Very Inter
esting Heading.
Told By a Participant.
Nnw YOUK , August iJ. [ Special Tologrmn
to Titu BKE. ] The particulars covering the
capture of the English schooner Black Diamond
mend were , nccordlng to the World of this
morning , road by < * reporter of that paper
yesterday In n letter to this city from au ac
tive participant.
Thursday morning , July 11 , the Hush loft
tier anchorage at St. Paul nnd steamed out
on n smooth sea before a moderate brcero
from the northward. It was 3 o'clock In the
afternoon when the lookout from his station
In the foremast heard sang put , "Sail ho. "
The cutter's course was changed , nnd headIng -
Ing for the stranger , orders worn passed by
the engineer watch to shako up the fires.
Iho speed of the vessel was Ini'reaoed , whllo
n broad wnko of foum and broken
water trailed astern. It was not
long betoro the stranger wus made out
from the deck. While the Hush ivns
yet some distance astern the schooner under
foresail , malnsnll and ] ib swung off before
the wind. It was evident that the stranger
did not like the appearance of the revenue
cutter which wns swooping down upon her.
Suddenly from the schooner's masthead wns
displayed the flag of England. At the same
time the Rush ranged on her Ice quarter.
Captain Shepard , by the use of a apoaiilng
trumpet ordered her to "hoavo to. I wish to
board you. " But no attention wns paid to
the summons , The man at the wheel did
not shift it a spoke , nnd by the few who
lounged on the deck a contemptuous silence
was maintained. Again the summons rung
out , but to no purpose.
"Clear away the starboard battery , " was
the ominous command from Captain Shcp-
nrd. The ports fell as If by magic , reveal
ing three breech loaders , whllo Mirco gun
ners stood awaiting Instructions. But there
wns no occasion to expend a cartridge. With
a swerve like a frightened hawk tbo
schooner flow up Into the wind , the man at
the wheel evincing n sudden interest in what
wns transpiring about him.
Head to the wind , with sails shivering nnd
headway stopped , the schooner luy all but
motionless under the guns of the Hush ,
which craft lowered a boat manned by six
seamen under command of Francis Tuttle ,
the tlrst lieutenant of the Hush. No Impedi
ment was put in the wuy of the lieutenant as
ho pulled alongside. In fact , there was no
ono to meet as he leaped over the rail , land
ing upon the dead carcass of a seal. Ono
glance at the deck revealed the bodies of
u score of seals , while In the hold
seventy-eight 'were lllcd away. Standing
forward were twenty tawny Indians , silent ,
morose and glancing furiously at tlio ofUcor
as ho made his examination. Further aft
were five white mon who did not look pleased.
Meanwhile Captain Shepard had como ou
board , attended by the crow of his gig. The
master made a little remonstrance but fol
lowed tho. ofllcqrto his smoking cabin , where
the firearms , ammunition and spears were
taken possession of. Salt , salt bags , floats
nnd nil the paraphernalia of a Bohrinu sea
seal pirate were deftly passed over the Black
Diamond's side into the bouts of the Kusb.
The master told Captain Shepard that before
leaving Victoria ho had received positive or
ders from his owners not to obey the orders
of uny Yunkoo revenue cutter until ilrod into
by u solid shot. "But 'mo , " ho added , "I
disobeyed orders for once in my life. The
will was good enough , don't ye know , but I
changed my mind when 1 saw those barkers
poking their noses out of the cutter's side. "
Captain Shepard now detailed John Haw
kins , un able seaman , to act as prize master ,
with Instructions to proceed with the vessel
to SItku. But the master of tnoi schooner
stated that his mon would not work anymore
moro , as they looked upon themselves ns
prisoners. To this no attention w.is paid ,
the Hush resuming her course leaving the
schooner hove to , but before the vessel wns
out of sight she had made all sail and hauled
by the wind. No ono aboard the Hush had
the slightest idea that the schooner would
ever sight Sitlca , but the duty of the Hush's
ofltcers had been observed to the letter. The
vessel had boon seized and her voyage
broken up.
After heaving the Black Diamond the
Hush ovorhaulbd the Triumph off Victoria ,
the largest sealer that visits Bohrlng sea ,
whllo her commander and crow have tno
reputation of being the most determined and
hardest sot of men to handle in those waters.
But the general appearance of the Rush
must have had a most soothing effect upon
tbo tempers of those controlling the for
tunes of the vossol. She hovo-to at the first
summons , nnd Lieutenant Tuttle was re
ceived politely , if not cordially , on
board. A scorch failed to reveal
any damaging evidence , although
the ofllcer was of the opinion that she hud
been engaged in illicit business , but hud
probably got rid of the pelts upon the cutter
houving in sight.
TheKusb sailed on the morning of July 15
for a four days' cruise , after which she waste
to return for the purpose of coaling prepara
tory to a two weeks' trip to the westward.
If everything works us expected the Hush
will bo ut Oonuluska bv August 5 , and after
that will steam direct for Sttka , then to Fort
Towusond , W. T.
OnnndlniiN Cliucklo.
TOIIOKTO , Out. , August 0. A special from
Ottawa to the Empire , the government
organ , says : "I'horo wns considerable chuck
ling hero at the news from Victoria of the
( tufa arrival there of the sealer Black Diamond
mend , although thcro is naturally much ro-
Bcntment at the outrageous conduct of
Captain Shepard in forcibly breaking the
ship's lockers. Captain Shcpard's ' action
und that of his government affords a
very remarkable contrast to the treatment
extended to tbo United States llshlng vesaolu
that have been seized or detained for transgressions -
gressions of the Canadian flailing laws on tbo
Atlantic.
"Apart from the recent seizure the conduct
of Captain Shepard must of necessity engage
the moat serious attention of the homo gov
ernment. In this case n vessel having a
British register und flying the British flag is
boarded on the high seas and forcibly
searched. Under these circumstances it is
surely duo to British vessels pursuing a legit
imate culling that the Imperial government
take prompt ami de''isivo measures to pro
tect its commerce beyond the territorial
waters of the United States or asy other
country , "

time by a series of systematic forgeries , anu
when the fact was discovered , a day or two

BOSTON , Mass. , August 0. [ Special TolO'
grain to TUB BKB.J J. Purvis Bruce , the
woll-known bicyclist , wns drowned Sunday
afternoon whllo bathing In Chauncoy pond ,
at Westboro. His sad end brings to light a
remarkable and a strong coincidence that
looks almost as a providential warning.
Bruce wns known all ever the country , lie
was bettor known In cycling circles na
"Jack. " Ho was the son of a Louisiana
planter and lived many years in England.
For a time ho was on thu stuff of the Minne
apolis Tribune , but since May has been con
nected with the Whlto Cycle company , with
headquarters nt Wostboro , Lust Mondny
week the llrm received a dispatch from Mln-
non polls , signed by J. Stlckwcll , inquiring If
Hrueo wns deaj , saying there
was an unaccountable rumor in
that ] city , which could not be
traced to any source , that hu was drowned.
The dispatch WUB kept several days until Mr ,
Bruce returned , hu being ubient when It ar
rived , und Saturday ho replied to it In u
genial manner , saying bn wns ulivo and
would soiid his inquirer a circular of the
llrm. The following afternoon ho decided to
take advantage of the warm weather to en
joy u swim in Chnuncey pond. Ho hired n
boat und , going out a short distance ) , un
dressed. Getting into the water ho swum
ubout the bout several times. Friends
wutehed him from the shore , when ho sud
denly throw up his hunda und , with a cry ,
sunk out of night. It wus Monday afternoon
before his body was recovered. His father
is in Scotland and his sister In Germany.
Tlio Whlto company will sco to hisbuiiul.
When Iho news of his death reached Boston
It was believed to be u hoax. Its verification

The postofllco department has u standing
reward of S-IOJ for the arrest und conviction
of every person who robs or who attempts to
rob or In any way interferes with the United
Slates mulls. Of late there hnvo been so
many mull robberies In the west that the
postofllco authorities are convinced that the
reward Is not sufllclont to Insure the deten
tion nud capture of robbers , und thu post
master general nnd Chief Postofllco Inspector
specter Kathbono have como to the conclu
sion that the amount paid for tbo capture of
a mail robber should be largely increased
nnd that no expense should bo spared In
bringing this class of criminals to
justice. The Wells Fargo Ex
press company Ima n standing
reward of 81,000 for the arrest of
any man who attempts to hold up one of their
stage coaches , and they would just ns soon
pay for n dead robber ns a llvo one. Inspector
specter H'.ithboiiQ thinks that the govern
ment ought to b'o able to pay just ns much ua
a prlvuto llrm.
A report received at the postofllco depart
ment from Inspector Frederick shows the
necessity of offering larger sums for the ar
rest of thcso knights of the road und con
tains the account of n very bold robbery.
The south bound stage on tlio route from
Hawllns to Fort Wnshaklo , wus bold up near
Hougis nbout 'JliO : p. m. by a lone highway
man. Ho covered the driver In the regula
tion style , and after tolling him to throw up
his bunds warned him that if ho made any
noise bo should consider It necessary to
make a hole , with the aid of a bul
let , In the top of his head.
Not wishing to have his ski'll ' re-
scmblo u sieve , the driver kept quiet whllo the
robber devoted his attention to the registered
tno.il. The only passenger wns the wife of
the Indian agent at the Shoshone agency , nnd
she was forced to give up her nurse contain
ing $3. She had n trunk with her , and this
the robber broke open and In ono of thotraya
saw some silverware. He was on the point
of taking this when the woman told him that
It w.is only plated. Ho threw it back with ,
the remark that ho wus not bothering with ,
plated stuff. After countiiic up his ir.Uns
and llndlng that bo wns only ? ys richer by
the raid , which ho thought was pretty poor
pay for a night's work , ho told the driver to
go on until they met the northbound stage ,
when ho would give him further Instruc
tions. Just before meeting the other stngo
the robber got down nmj concealed himself ,
giving tbo driver a'parting injunction not to
reveal his presence on pain of death. As soon
ns the two singes passed , the second one was
stopped m the same manner as the other und ,
the registered mull examined. Ono letter
wns found to contain $ SOO in currency , nnd
after searching for other valuables , bo dis
appeared.
The south bound stage reported the rob
bery to thq postmaster nt Kongo's , but al
though there wore sovor.il cowboys hanging
around the store nt the time , none of them
considered the reward of 5300 suQlciont in
ducement to go on the trail. Inspector Fred
ericks says a man who would have nerve
enough to hold up two stngo coaches In ouo
night would no doubt make a very stubborn
fight for his lifojmd the cowboys don't think
it , is worth while being killed for 200 , espe
cially us the pursuit of a hlgbwuyrann la
generally on expensive ono.
