PENNSYLVANIA.
New York, May 21.—A Times spe
cial from Osceola, Pa., says one of
the most destructive tiros that ever
occurred in that section is now rag
ing all around the top of the moun
tain, near the summit of which Os
ceola stands. Early yesterday the
chutes of Philadelphia mine, oppo
site town took lire from the sparks
of a locomotive, and the flames
spread to the woods and soon readi
ed town. The Lifeton House was
destroyed. The inhabitants of the
town were hemmed in by the tire
and great consternation prevailed.
Finally a train dashed in the depot.
Women anil children were placed in
I the ears and a successful trip through
I the burning woods made Phillips
burg. The mill of the Moshannou
Land and Lumber Company, con
taining fourteen million feet of lum
j tier, was destroyed; also three other
large mills. A terrible explosion of
[ gunpowder occurred at a hardware
store, sending fragments in different
; directions and selling lire to other
| portions of town. The loss on cut
| lumber will be over a million and a
! half. No further particulars obtaiu-
I ed, telegraphic communication being
! cut off by the burning of offices.
Dispatches from Tyrone, Pottsvillo
and Belleforte, state the tire is still
raging on the mountains. About
[two blind ed houses have been do
j stroyad, and over twelve hundred
I people are homeless. Thirteen cars
I at Snow Shoe, one hundred tons of
coal anti all the houses of mine No.
I i arc burned. Total loss over two
i million doflßrs. Insurance very
| light.
! Altoona, Pa., May 21. At 10o’clock
| last night the steam lire engine re
| turned to this place from Osceola, be
ing unable to do any more work on
■ the tire for want of water. They sitc-
I reeded in saving a part of Osceola.
| There are 15,000 persons without
I houses, most of whom have gone to
I Phillipsburg, having in many cases
: lost everything.
Mr. Kllzmun. the Pennsylvania
Railroad agent, lost his house and
furniture, and the freight house was
also burned, together with a consid
erable quantity of goods that were in
the company's warehouse.
At Powellton the buildings are all
safe, and as the fire has nearly burn
ed out in their vicinity, it. is thought
they are out of danger.
About one-half of Penzedale is
burned, and from ten to eleven cars
were burned at, the Pennsylvania Col
liery, and six ut Mushauuon.
All the bridges between Mashuti
nou and Osceola., with the exception
of one at Beaver Run, wore burned.
