THE GREAT CHICAGO FIRE.
Interesting Details of the Disaster.
The following account of the great Chicago
Are of Tuesday and Wednesday last, is made
tip from the reports published in the Chica?
go Tribune, Republican and Times
THB ODTEBEAK.
The city was visited by two destructive con?
flagrations on Wednesday evening, BO nearly
together that they were by many mistaken for
the same Are, or rather one as the result of the
other.
The first fire broke ont about 7 o'clock in tho
evening, in one of the upper stories of Burch's
iron block, on the southwest corner of Lake
street and Wabash avenue. It was at first
thought that the destructive element would bc
confined to comparatively narrow limits, bnt
almost oefore the engines had been put in po?
sition, the broad sheets of flame shot ont vo?
luminously from windows and roof, and ere
another quarter of an hour had elapsed the
whole building seemed to be wrapped in one
vast mass of flame, the lurid crest of the
hage pyramid seeming to reach to the skies,
ana to kill off the stars with its overweening
glare.
THE CITY ILLUMINATED.
Tile whole city was lighted up -by the glare,
tire light being so great that one could see to
read cmunary print on Lake and Bandolph
Street bridges. Of course this self-announce
j meet brought thousands to the spot. The jam
was terrific-greater than at any fire in this
city for many years past. The streets in the
vicinity were literally packed with human be?
ings, and so closely were they wedged in that
the firemen were seriously impeded in their
efforts to move round St their work, while thero
was no avoiding the fast falling flakes of fire.
It is a great wonder that we are not called on
to report numerous accidents as a consequence
of the crash.
A TEBBLTIC SCENE.
The scene was terrino, grand, awful. The
huge iron columns on the front were twisted
into fantastic shapes by the heat from the Are
that raged within, and the walls were bent here
and tnere by the Bame agent In the rear the
iron shutters were bent as if some giant had
curled them round bis fingers, while the iron
work on both front and rear was heated red hot,
and shone ont in brilliant contrast to the pnre
white of the marble in front, or the doll bricks
behind,which enclosed apertures through which
glared fiercely the vivid flame.
THE FIB ST CRASH.
At about twenty minutes past eight o'clock
- the first crash was heard. The roof had faller:
io, and even while the spectators were gazing
in blank wonder at the increased volume of
flame which suddenly shot upward, tho Wabash
avenue front caine down with a heavy sound,
which furnished the emphasized thunder tone
to the sullen roar of the burning pile. The
fireman ran, and.fortunately none were injured
Ten minutes thereafter the Lake-etreet front
followed m the gravitusl descent, tho high pile
giving way simultaneously in several places
along the perpendicular, and folding down like
a many-jointed rule. Still the flames roared 11
ero, and once again the sound of falling mate?
rial waa heard; the inside walls were following
suit, and the still blazing interior was revealed
i te the gaze of. the bystanders. Shortly after
that the rear wail of the next building to the
.wast, which had been for some time danger?
ously bulging, fell inward, and presently tho
, laat wall of the Burch structure was levelled .
' almost to the ground. This" was the virtual | *
end of that conflagration, though long there?
after the flames danced high in air, and the
firemen were obliged to keep their hose point- *
ed toward the spot to save surrounding prop?
erty. :
OBI G Di OT THB FIBS.
The fire was observed in the fifth story of I i
Koa. 89 and 41, occupied with other numbers j
by McDongal, Nichols, & Co., as a boot and
shoe manufactory. This was directly over the
bookstore of S. C. Griggs & Co. How it
caught fire it is impossible to tell ; it was as?
serted that there was no legitimate light on
that floor at the time, but it could not be as?
certained last night that no one was there
unauthorizedly. So quickly was the whole
building wrapped in flames that no time was
given to verify m this particular.
THE SECOND FIRE.
While the above fire was still at its height
tongues of flame were seen to shoot up almost
simultaneously from tho rear, near the roof,
and from the basement in front of Carson,
Pine ? Co.'s wholesale dry goods establish?
ment, No. 20 Lake-street, almost immediately
opposite. This waa about twenty minut?e to
mue o'clock, and about the same time that the
first walls fell in on the other side of Lake-,
street. Amid the smote and confusion the I '
(?ut was not at once noticed by the depart?
ment, whose energies were only too severely
taxed already, and whose efforts ou another
subject could be ill spared. Hence it 'was
gome time before that was attended to, md
the second conflagration had soon gained a I '
fearful headway, promising soon to be even
more disastrous than the drat. How it com?
menced was a mystery. It was thought that
burning pieces had fallen on the premises, but
there ffas little time for speculation. The fire
had gained a firm foothold and was swinging
- on to newer conquests. A general conflagra?
tion seemed imminent To add to the horrors
of the situation, it WJB terribly cold, and tho
S?or firemen began to feel exhausted with
eir arduous labore. The cold, too, worked
mischief in a very detrimental way-the water
froze in the pipes, diminishing the stream
seriously, and fell to the ground in icy spray
era it had reached the blazing pile. Stu!
farther several lengths of hose bad burst so
extensively that they were almost useless.
Taken altogether, the situation was one peen
liarlv disheartening, and might well make to
flinoh a heart of steel.
THE OBIOIN OF THE SECOND KIBE.
The origin of the second Are is a question,
the buildings being somewhat removed from
the first scene, and the flames appearing to
some looking on to leap up suddenlv from the
basement Two gentlemen who were standing
on the grating of Carson, Pirie & Co., saw
large live cinders Aying about them, and look?
ing down through the grating saw that it was
ali on Are beiow.
It was rumored that this Arm had said a few
days before that they would soon have to fail
and go into bankrupt v.
FIGHTING THE FT?E.
The second Are was not got under till nearly
half-past ll o'clock, and then rather ceased by
lack of material to feed on than because the
buddings once seized were Baved. The stri c
tures burned away far into the night, but the
failing of the wails of the saloon and boarding?
house on Miohigan avenue was the lust event
in the history of the tire. Several times the
Adams House caught on the exterior, but was
saved by persistent throwing of water ftoni
within and without. There was no lack of en?
ergy displayed, and indeed all. was needed for
the work of saving the property from the im?
pending doom.
THE SCENE.
Such another Are we have not had in the his?
tory of Chicago-great ones though there have
been. It was a triumph of wild mad fury on
the part of the devouring element, and'one
which will not Boon be forgotten. Between the
hours of ten and eleven o'clock, the view along
Lake-street from the west was appalling. Too
whole aspect was one of lurid glow. The street
WU one vast avenue of fire, whose gathering
M?h brought up vivid ideas of the entrance to j
the bottomless pit at which stood Sin and
Death to guard the passage of their lord and I
master Satan, Vast crowds of people ?tood in
the street, and above and beyond them loomed
up th.it infernal glow whose" intensitv rivalled
that ot a glass furnace, and whose extent was
great enough to be the first note of the last
Seat conflagration which shall devour all
Logs. Bound the corners, into the crossing
avenues, the same vivid scene was presented*
and the dwellers along the lake shore who cast
their eves toward the scene, muet have tl ought
the city was being laid tri ashes. Won to ted
to describo tho picture; it was one which we
may fervently wish never again to bo col.ed on
to chronicle.
B?XLDC?03 IKJUBED.
Thc buildings all around the actual :onfla
eration were not only placed in imminent peril,
Eut in nearly ?very case very much daiaaged.
In addition to the signs and cornices Which
caught fire, as previously noted, tnt' signs
which were untouched wore drawn into all
sorts of fantaitic shapes, blistered up ?rod ut?
terly ruined by the heat. Stone fronts, the
pride of the city, were discolored, and in some
casos so much drawn from the straight line as
not enly to mar their beauty, but to cause se?
rious apprehensions for the safety of the
buildings. Large panes of plato glass were
shivered from top to bottom, and heavy doors
were wrenoned and twisted toan extent scarce?
ly credible without an actual view. Inside
there was devastation. The copious streams
of water which had been showered do vn upon
them had in many cases so damaged the stocks
as to render them comparatively worthless.
The amount of loss from this source it is im?
possible to ascertain, as the places ware gen?
erally closed and not opened to inspection. We
aro able to take no note of this iiupor ;ant fea?
ture of tho ruinous scene.
BEHOVING PBOPEETY.
As the flame? threatened to reach now build?
ings, the inmates and proprietors would take
the alarm, and, calling upon the bystanders to
assist, would rush frantically in and carry out
loads of goods, furniture, or whatever they
could lay hold of, and deposit them in the
street or the nearest place of safety. Gener?
ally those whose places were deemed safe wil?
lingly opened their doors for the reception of
the property of those menaced by the flamea,
but occasionally one, fearful lest it night en?
danger his own stock by theft or fin, refused
admittance to those less fortunate than him?
self. Great stacks of clothing, boxes of boots
and 3hoes, dry goods, and boarding bouse fur?
niture of all descript'^s were scatte .ed about
the Btieets, much ol them damaged about as
much ii boing saved as if they had been left
untouchsd. The Adams' House, which at one
time seemed doomed, and tho Richmoad, which
was seriously threatened, were crowded with
boarders and others, who watched with the
utmost interest tho approach of tba flames,
many ol those who had rooms there having
packed their effects ready for a move when tb ?
worst ca jie. The streets in places were flood?
ed with water from birst pipes and slippery
with ice and sleet, w _o the cold, faut iDoreas
ing in intensity, made the labors ci tho fire?
men almost impossible cf continuance. Not?
withstanding tnto severity, crowds of mon and
many women and children continued to gaze,
half frozen, at tho scene which tor terror
and sublimity has rarely been equalled.
FROZEN WATER.
The streets, owing to the intense cold, did
not present the sloppy appearance usual at
much less extensive tires than this. The water
froze as it fell, and formed fanciful ridges oi
ice and snow-like spray, out np into hillocks
while yet soft, or pulverized by the humed
tread of thousands of feet after it bad harden?
ed. Here and there tho long length of hoso
mc ?ndernd along the street in sinuc us course,
and the numerous leaks sent forth clouds of
spray which covered the spectator with a quick?
ly-formed coat of ice, almost impel-vious as a
coat of mail.
A MIMIC BATTLE.
Af tor the Burch ?lock had fall? m together,
with a terrible crash and roar, a dirions noise
proceeded from tho ruina. It was in perfect
imitation of a battle. Every few moments the
air was filled with the distinct yet billen roar of
heavy artillery, occasioned by successive ax
plosions, while for the Bpace of two hours was
heard the uninterrupted rattling or crackling
of musketry. The imitation was a decided Boc?
eras, and attracted & great-deal cf attention.
The cause fortheso strange noises is a mystery.
Many curious people undertook to investigate
the matter, but the result proved entirely un?
satisfactory.
THE TOTAL.
The buildings burned were the following :
First fire-Nos. 39, 41, 43 and. 45 Wabash

FUN IK THE VIRGINIA CONTENTION.-In a do
iision, on Wednesday last, on the levy of a
)oll tax for educational purposes, Mr. Parr, of
S'ausemond, said he was in favor of a capita
ion tax, but was opposed to a pol I tax.
Mr. J. C. Gibson-Will the gentleman please
ixplain the difference between a capitation
ax and a poll tax?
Parr-Yes, sir; a capitation tf x is a tax on
rour head [bowing his bead]; bal a poll tax is
i road tax 1 [Laughter. ]
Some of Parr's .Radical friendfi finding that
ie had made a jaux pas, endoa rared to set
lim right, but tho effort was lost in a general
ihout of laughter.
Parr said ne was decidedly op posed to fat
lening frogs to feed snakes on. Ho was an
jysterman, and kuew what he was talking

-The Evening Post is not altogether pleas?
ed with tho success of the Republican candi
late for member of Congress .Tom Ohio, to
sncoeed the late Mr. Hamilton, riving reasons
therefor as follows : "Wo are told that General
Beatty owes his signal Buccess to the fact of
als running as the greenback ijandidate, who
believes in paying his honest debts with a pro?
mise to pay. We think he if a Butlorito or
Pandletoiuan, who has complotoly adopted the
?ebauehed notions of theBe gentlemen on the
jubjeot of ourrency. If that be tho case, hie
mcco88 is not a subject for rejo-.cing by either
oarty. It is a matter rather of grief and
deprecation.
-According to a correspondent of tho Ave
oir Nationale, the mortality from fumino in
Algeria is so great that tho daad are thrown
into trenches, as on the day i titer a battle.
