GREAT FIRE AT GALVESTON. about sixty blocks ok dwell ings DESTROYED, And a Money Lou Reaching Into the Mill- lone Indicted—The Firemen IlafHed by a Strong Gale—Thousand* ol Feople Homeless, Gai.vekton, November 13.—A destructive fire is now raging in the eastern part of the city, between Sixteenth and Seventeenth street. The fire broke oat at 1:40 in a small foundry on tho north side of Strand Ktreet, near the corner of Sixteenth. The dames spread rapidly under a strong north wind, and the prospects at this time are that Galveston will suffer a great loss. Six dwelling houses have already been destroy ed, and immense clouds of sparks are being carried four and five squares over the roofs of wooden houses. The entire fire department are on tho ground, but they seem paralyzed and unable to fight the llames because of the fierce wind and Buflicating smoke. Galveston, November 13.—About 4 -o'clock the fire began to spread to the cost and to the west of Sixteenth and Seven teenth streets. The wind rtise to a gale and pandemonium reigned. For a time it seemed as though the entire eastern half of the city was doomed. The lire spread rapidly to tho southward, licking up blocks of elegant residences, hastily abandoned by their inmates. By 5 o’clock it had reached Broadway, which threads the centre of the island, running east and west. At 7 o'clock the wind gave signs of dying away, and shortly it began to shift, then to decrease, until by 8 o'clock only n fair breeze was blowing. But by this time the lire hnd eaten its way to Avenue O, where, at 9.30 o'clock, it seemed to exhaust itself. Tho firemen coming up checked its further ravages nt this point, or within two blocks of tho Gull The burned district covers fifty-two blocks, seven of which are not swept en tirely clean. It is sixteen blocks in depth and averages a width of three blocks. From Miouse top the smoking burned district re liables a bugh black half-open fan lying across tho island Iron the bay nearly to the Gulf. The island .at that point is nineteen blocks, or ono and a quarter miles, ’.vide. The fire started on North Side Avenue, bet ter known ns the Strand, which is ono block from the bay, and it stopped within three blocks of the Gulf. Sixteenth street is nine blocks west of the extreme inhahatia- ble end of tho island, the first resident street being Sixth. From Avenue A to Avenue D the fire was confined to a. strip bonnded on the cast by Sixteenth street and on tho west by Seventeenth street The business portion begins at Twentieth street and runs west ten squares. This outline located the fire, which began to spread rapidly after it had passed Avcnno D. By the time it had reached Broad- wav it was sweeping nearly three blocks in width. From the west side of Seventeenth street to tho east side of Fourteenth about 300 houses wero burned, occupied by fully 500 families. From Ave nue A to Avenuo E, for four squares, tho the burned dwellings were occupied almost entirely by the poorer classes and several families wero crowdod in a single house. In this strip from Avenno E, howover, the burned district includes tho wealthiest and most fashionable portion of tho city. Ono hundred .elegantly furnished residences are in ruins. Many of these residences had beautiful gardens attached, and the mon- eyed loss does not represent one-halt of fheir value. All manner of ruins are to be seen. The city swessors say the taxable value of the dwellings burned is $650,000. This makes the actual value of the property $1,500,000, which perhaps represents the loss in money. The insurance is estimated at $600,000, although some inauranoe men who have walked over the district ploco the insurance nt $400,000. So far as can bo lcoraod not s single ac cident occurred, notwithstanding the fear ful panic that prevailed. Tho scene dur- • tag'the progress of the fire wss simply frightful, and so filled with misery and ter ror that whoever witnessed it must beer its vivid impress for a life time. The wind rose to a screaming gale in tho vicinity of the fire, and swept through the burning belt in terrific awirls. carrying millions of live cinders high up in the sir and raining them down a mile distant over the wooden city and its panic-stricken inhabitants. The entire east end of the city scarce, ly contains a dozan brick dwell- inns All Is wood—Texas pine— ami it bums with tadescnbablo fury.

A Young School Girl llrntally Murdered by a Negro. Norfolk, Va„ November 14.—Alice, the fonrtcen-year-old daughter of Charles D. Powell, a well-to-do farmor in Prince Ann county, residing about two miles from the village of JKemperville, went to school as usual at that place yesterday morning. When she did not return at the proper timo her father and brother became uneasy and started out to look for her. Being unsuccessful in the search, and darkness having come on, they were thoroughly alarmed and a party was organ ized in Kemperville to mako a thorough search of nil tne ground between tho two points. The search resulted about 11 o’clock in finding tho body of the girl in thicket about twenty yards fiom the road, lifslesg, licr throat cut and her head nearly severed from her body. An examination of the body allowed thnt she had also received three stab wounds, bnt it waa not positively proven that abe boil been outraged, although it was generally believed that murder hod been resorted to to conceal that atrocious crime. Tho remains were taken to her father's house, and a party started out to search for her slayer, Powell hnd had in his employ a negro man named Cherry, about 18 yenrs old, coal black, who was driven from the premises a few days ago because of a difficulty with one of PoweU'a sons, lie is believed to be the murderer, end was caught this morning. The excitement in tho neighborhood is in tense, and if tho crimo is proven on him hia time on earth will bo very short. Tho belief is that outrage was intended, but that becoming frigbtenod by the sound of approaching voices he mnnlrred the girl and fled. SUICIDE AT COLUMBIA.

Chicago, November 12.—At the afternoon session of the free tradere’ convention, oa the report of the committee ou nominations being adopted, the following named gentle men, among others, were elected officers for the ensuing year: President, David A. Wells; vice-presidents, Thomas Holland of New York, B. A. Foreman of Louisiana, F. W. Dawson of South Carolina, W. M. Singerly of Pennsylvania, Henry YVutter- son of Kentucky, K. T.

Shear man of New York, Josiak Quincey of Mas sachusetts, A W. Thomas of Connecticut, 11. B. B. 8 abler of New York, William Busionlee of Michigan, A. A. Healy of New York, W. W. Wilmer of Iowa, E. II. Phelps Illinois, M. D. Harter of Ohio and W. G. Peckham of New Jersey. The ’following , resolutions were then adapted; That tho chairman of tho executive commit tee be ckaiiraan of the national committee; that members of the committee from the various States be chairmen for the various committees, and that they be vested with authority to call State conventions and form State organizations; that the executive com mittee be authorized to complete the na tional committeo by appointing members fur States not included in the report? The report of the committee on resolu tions was* subjected to much discussion. Only minor amendments, however, were made. It was adopted, as follows: woollen goods, but bad the effect of cheap- ^jjjig home prodnets to an extent that was dritinw wool-growers possessed of every ad- vantage oZ location and facilities for trans portation t° abandon the pursuit as un- profitable.- When Mr, Well* hod finished, Mr. Beech- er was greeted with loud and continued ap plause. He began by referring to the oft. 2 noted conceits of manufacturers that they lone were in a position to understand the intricacies of tho tori# question. Mr. Beecher declared that he was in favor of no tariff at all. Thought the best policy to fol low was to place a direct tariff upon the peo- FROM FOREIGN COUNTRIES. THE SERVIAN ARMY ACROSS THE FRONTIER. We submit to the people of the United Ststei that the continuance of a war tariff with duties sverog- IlnslZperceDton over 1,400 articles of dem^H consumption, and a much higher spec-ifio duty on mat-rial, has prolonged tho evils of war in tlmoa of profound peace, and baa been the principal cause of the commercial and Indnatrlal depreealon of re cent rears. By forcing labor and capital from I naturally profitable lines of bospteesalid by adding to the coat of production, it has decreased the com mon productive capacity of labor and capital, and thereby reduced both the wages of labor and the profile of capital; baa provoked an antagon ism between labor and capital against which our great natural resources and onr free Institutions ■should have protected ns; baa Impaired onr power to compete with other manufacturing natlona In the mitins of the world, and so obstructed national |an.l development, ithaa destroyed many i e innate selfishness of the people,born of their ignorance, would inako the operation of such a policy impossible until the ar rival of the niillenium. The speaker then referred to tho history of liberty, from liberty of thought to liberty of speech and action. Liberty of thought in relation to commerce boa led to a liberty of speech in favor of the removal of obsta cles in the way of its progress and action that would eventually succeed. Mr. Beecher said that protection was jugglery of the devil; that if politicians were statesmen protection would die n nntural death ill spite of the devil, but politicians were not statesmen—they were "votemongera." The speaker said that when Seward was Secretary of State and rang his little bell and ordered -people about, it was said that such was a necessity of wnr. The speaker thought so at the time, but ho had come to believe thnt no country was less fitted to assume arbitrary power than this. This country, ho said, was not o paternal govern ment, and, he added, “a paternal govern ment is p.n infernal government." Mr Beecher spoke in most uncomplimen tary terms of tho custom houses, and said he believed from personal observation thnt if there was snch n thing ns n profano oath it could invariably be found in the courts and custom houses. Quoting the secretary of a national lnbor organization, Mr. Beecher said there were now in this country a million biborers unemployed. After referring to tho rivalry among cnpitnl- sts in developing and reaping profits in newly-discovered industries which resulted in inevitable over-production and the ulti mate effect of throwing laborers again ont of work, Mr. Beecher remarked that there was no tariff on men, and wondered if tho protectionists wore thinking of bettering the situation by placing n tariff on imported pauper labor. This was intensely Mousing to the audience, and its suppressed laugh ter increased to a roar when the speaker remarked that this country was a large exporter “of religion." This country sent a million of dollars to heathen coun tries to instil principles of Christianity into the minds of unbelievers, while the article went a-begging at home. This country was liberal in exporting religion for the benefit of the heathen, but when these benefited individuals came to this countrv to be nearer to the fountain head of suc’h teaching they were met with Btaves and curses and only allowed to re main at the peril of their fives. The speaker’s closing words were a tribute to liberty,that hadfoundedthegovernment, that had freed the slaves, and which would remove overy bar to Its commercial grand eur.

Berlin, November 14.—The North Ger man Gazette say* that the tact that ServU ha* declared war against Bulgaria will not alter the pryspect* of the Balkan confer ence. sooner. Tho probabilities are that Mr. Glad stone will yet succeed in making the Iris n tioa tho ronin ono before election day. i now, many politicians affoct to seo hi* Edinburgh Irish speech overtopping hi* dis establishment address. The importance of its effect on the Home Rule party is very marked. Leadingl’ernellitcs already mani fest indications of a desire to come to terms with tho "grand old man." Several of Par nell's organs openly ndroeate such an alli ance. The Dublin Freeman's Journal to day says that Gladstone bos yet ample timo before the election to meet Parnell's reason able demands. Tho cx-Premicr, the Journal contends, can, before be conclude* bis Mid lothian compaign, so place his party on tho Irish question that on alliance with the Par- ncllitcs will bo a matter of course. All the paper asks is that Gladstone shall bo sincere like Parnell, who, the Journal says, is always in earnest, and “it would bo well for Gladstone to be earnest also." Tho United Ireland, Parnell’s own organ, in sist* that the homo rule question is recog nized by all first class statesmen of Eng land as the leading issue of the hour in British politics, ami says thst from which ever party the settlement comes the settle ment will probably bo a mere wrangle over details. This latter utterauce must be considered important. It was inspired by the great Xriah leader, and waa probably meant to convey to the league the informa tion that the Irish party managers uolonger consider themielvcs obliged to look to tho Conservative party for the accomplishment of their ends, hut have suc ceeded in reaching a position in which their chnnces for a godd deal elsewhere are sufficient to warrant at least a declaration of independence. It would be quite natural for tho Pamollitea to prefer a bargain with Gladstone to one with Salisbury. The Liberal leader bos some claims on Irish gratitude, and has a following largely disposed towards making concessions. Lord Salisbury has neither. The defection of the Irish vote in Parlia ment threw tho Liberals from power. They are trying hard to get back. They hava been attempting this without Irish help, anil havo obtained but indifferent pros pect*. With the Irish help, the Liberals would possess an absolute certainty of restoration. Parnell would lose nothing but gain everything. He could afford to trust to Liberal promises with more confidence than he could to any the Tories might make. Tho Tory leaders could not guarantee that their party would permit them to fulfill their pledges, whereas Gladstone could guarantee that his party would keep his promises. Be sides, if Gladstone himself should prove re calcitrant, Parnell would be in better shape than ever to again overthrow his ally, for it can at preMut hardly be doubted that Par nell will have a far larger and more effective tialanca of power in the coming Parliament than he has In the present.

EUROPEAN AFFAIRS REVIEWED. Interest in tho Unlgarlan War-Gl»d«tone'a Great Campaign In Scotland— Other Topics. London, November 14.—The declaration I of war by King Milan against Bulgaria and the actual beginning of hostilities engage the undivided attention ot the people to night. The extraordinary Liberal cam- .poign which i* being made in Scotland by llr. Gladstone is comparatively ignored for the moment, and it is yet next to impossi ble to get any reliable news from Bulgaria, owing to the expulai.-n of moot of the pres*I Icorreapondcnt* and the difficulty otbera have of getting their diipatehes forwardedl to the telegraph offices. Despite adverse criticisms made by the editors of the great Loudon dailies on Mr. Glad-- stone’* treatment of the disestsblishmeutl issue, it cannot he denied that ho has suc-l ceeded in largely satisfying the churchmen of England that the church is not threat ened with an immediate attack, nor that ho ha* pretty well convinced tho Scotch Tories that for them tho issue is a separate one and within their own control. As time elapses the issue becomes daily more clear,! and the result is becoming apparently ad- VBQtapMUN to the Liberal cause. The ex-l’remier'e great *l>eech ha* stopped Ithe fttmapede from tho Liberal I party, which wm taking to the Tory side thousands of men who hail begun to deem It their duty to go that way to safe the Church of England, and it will un doubtedly bring buck to the Liberal ranks a large portion olthc deserters, whose fears on this score hail already driven them swny. By his admission to tne Scotch that so I far as they were concerned he was willing to bring the question of disestsblieliment to an issue whenever they desired it, it is thought Mr. Gladstone has really strength ened his following in Scotland. The Scotch have for several yean demanded the extension to them ot the privilege* accorded Ireland iu religious j and land attaint, and perhaps a majority of those English liberals who still insist on the maintainance of the union of the state and ehurrh in England have long been will ing that Scotland should for herself have perfect freedom iu the matter. Some per sona contend that by refusing to pledge himself to disestablishment in England II r. Gladstone has lost strength with the Itaitical*. bnt this can hnnllv be true, for the Radicals thoroughly appreci ate the fact that they are not yet in a majority in the Liberal party. They desire the party'a success, and are intelligently willing to bide their time, which they firmly believe S!

TUB BOUMKI.1AN REVOLUTION. A private letter from St. Petersburg at tributes Russia's fierce opposition to tho ! iresent independent Rounielian revolution »this delay encountered by the Czar in bringing one about in his own interest. This letter states that General Gourko won instructed last summer to go to Bulgaria, take command of the troops there, and after assuming the administra tion of the affair* of the province to pro claim the Grand Duke Vladimir governor of United Bulgaria. Prince Alexander, suspecting this design, investigates! the matter, satisfying himself of Russia's in- tenf en, joined the revolutionists, and when ho hod them firmly espoused to his in terests headed the revolution, and so de feated the Czar's intrigue. BlSNAACa's EXPULSION or POLES. The excitement inUcrmany over Bismarck's continued enforcement of nis edict of exile of Russian poles from Prussia continue* un abated. Great relief committees have been sent to assist tho unfortunate exiles at Leonborg, Posen and Cracow. The relief committee at the Utter e ty reports that 2,000 Poles in one Prussian settlement were tecenUy ordered to settle up their af fairs there and quit Prussia without delay. A majority of these are Roman Catholics, and many of them have resided in Prussia so long that they have forgotten their na tive language. They havo all been com pelled to sell their property in huto, aud spccuUtora, In favor of local officials, have token snch advantage of the situation that very little of the property thus forced upon tho market has brought more than one-fourth of its value. To make mattera worse, Rus sia has issued an order prohibiting the entry of these exiles in the Czar’s domain, unifies they can prove they were born there. In consequence of thU there at present encamped on the frontier no lew than 1,500 exiles, penniless, homeless, and most miserable, without the right to move toward and with imprisonment at hard labor staring them in the face if they dare return. The Cracow relief committee denounara the expulsions oa in human and unUwl uL It quotes from tho great German authorities Settler and BlunU- chili to show that the edict of expuUion was issued by the German chancellor in vioUtion ot the German constitution of 1871, which lodged with the Uund«rath alone and not with the crown the right to banish aliens from the empire. Innumerable stories of cruelty inflicted upon tens of thousands of unolT-uding Polia under the edict of expulsion are pro ducing in Germany a wide-spread feeling of bitter feeling against Bismarck.
