The Tribane building, which was supposed to be fire-proof, finally suc cumbed. Six of the largest elevators, the im- mense depots of the Michigan Southern and Illinois Central railroads, both passenger and freight, are burned. More than a score of churches and much shipping on the river are destroyed. Men who were millionaires yesterday morn ing are nearly peniless to-day. But more ternble than all is that certainly many have perished in the flames—how many no one will ever be able to tell, but it ia known several persons have perished, snd there is only a heart-sickening fear that the victims will be counted by scores. Hundredsof horses and cows have been burned in stable?, and on the north side numbers of animals, though released from confinement, were so bewildered and confused by tho sea of fire which surrounded them that they rushed wildly to and fro, uttering cries of fright and pain until scorched and killed. Any attempt at a description of the scenes of this appalling calamity would be idle. The simple faots that the once great city of Chicago i3 des- troyed; that hundredsof millions of active capital here havo vanished, and nearly one-third of Chicago’s inhabitants are houseless and de pendant 13 sufficient. Any attempt to embellish would bo mockery. As this awful day draws to a close, thousands of anxious eyes watch tho clouds of smoke which still roll over the burnt district, with evident dread that a sudden change of wind may tnm the flames into the portion of the city yet spared. There seems, however, little canso of apprension of it, and firemen from other cities are constantly arriv ing. Colot el J.

Tho area of lowest barometer has probably passed from Nebraska and Dakotah to Lake Superior, but no reports have been raceived from beyond Chicago, owing to the fire in that eity. Brisk southwesterly winds have prevailed on Lake Michigan. Lighter winds on the Lower Lakes. Northeast winds with eloud have prevailed da ring the day on the South Atlantio coast, and light rain in Florida. The temperature has fal len in Missouri, and rain or snow have been reported from Kansas. Probabilities: The barometer will probably fall more rapidly on Tuesday in the Middle and Eeitem States, with partially cloudy and smoky weather. Easterly winds with cloudy weather, and possibly rain, on the Sonth Atlantic and Gnlf ooast. Southwesterly winds with cloudy weather on the lower Lakes. The cold weather north of Kansas will probably extend to Lake Michigan, with westerly winds and possibly light rains. 14%. streets in the districts still unburned are lined Wiudmton, October 7.—Cotton quiet; mid-1 f or miles with such household goods as have I dlmgal8%; net receipts 315; exports coastwise 150; I been saved from destruction.
