Montreal, Jan. 25.—One of the most destructive tires from which this city has ever suffered began at 8 o’clock last uight, and, notwithstanding the efforts of tbe entire tire department, the progress of the flames was not checked until 1 o’clock this morning. By that time it had destroyed propertv estimated at between $2,500,000 aud $8,000,000, and was still burning, though the appearance was that tbe firemen have at last got it under con trol. Included in the propertv burned is the splendid board of trade’s build ing. which cost $600.000, and boused over 100 tenants, half a dozen large business houses aud two score of small er buildings. The weather was cold and the firemen were greatly hsmpered in this respect. Outside of the board of trade building there was not a mod ern structure among those burned Crowds of people jammed the nar row streets, and the police could not control them. Women tainted ami their clothes were torn and a few slightly injured in rushes for safetv. The tire started in ihe premises of M. Saxe & Co., wholesale clothiers, at Lemerne and St. Peter streets. The streets in the locality were deserted at the time and the tire apparently had good headway liefore the til st alarm was sent in. Tbe firemen found the buildiug a three-story stone structure, a mass of flames. >f DEAD American Editor at Manila Must Leave the Islands. A SERIOUS MENACE TO THE SITUATION George T. Rue Made Serious Charge« Against Captain ol the Port, Which Were In- vestigated and Disproved Rome, Jan. 28.—A tpecial dispatch to tbe Patria say» that Verdi, the com • po«er, ia dead. He wa« burn in 1813 near Parma, at the foot of the Aper- ninea. At 11 be waa the organist of Roncole, bi« native village. He first married the daughter of the conductor of the theater of La Scala. For 50 years 3e has made the villa of St. Ago* the. near Bueeeto, hie favorite resi dence. After the death of his first wife he married Mme. Strepponi, who plaved in the first performance ot hi» “Nabucco,” at Milan, over 55 years ago. Verdi's father was the keeper of an inn, a fact which would seem to prove the theory of tome men of science that all human beings are born equal in possibility. What \erdi has done for mankind cannot be measured. “Ernani,” Rigoletto.” "II Trova- tore,” “La Travaita.” “Aida”—these names tell the story of what joy and peace aud pleasure the genius of the Italian of humble origin has brought to his kind. His compositions have been very numerous. A« early as 1347 he wrote the ‘“Maenad leri. ” It was composed for Jenny Lind, and was sung at Her Majesty theater in Lou- don with the great soprano in the prin cipal part. “Trovatore” ia his most popular opera. “Aida” is his greatest work, but opinions vary ou thiB point, as they vary about the greatest ot Shakespeare’s plays. Signor Verdi dirt other things than write musim He was a member of the Italian parlia ment, and served his country in the capacity of minister of public instruc tion. France gave him the legion of honor, Russia gave him the order of St. Stanislaus, Italy the order of the crown, and Egypt the order of Osman- ieh. Australia presented him with a cross of commandersbip oi the order of Franz Joseph. Of late years ' erdi wrote works that are almost as well known as his earlier efforts. They are “Othello” and “Falstaff.” The lat ter was written when the author was 79 year« of sge. Gossip of the P< Great Devastation in New Heb- Interesting Events and rides and New Britain.

Manila, Jan 29. —General MacAr thur has ordered the deportation to the United States of George T. Rice, editor of tire Daily Bulletin, a marine lour- ual. Rice will sail ou the Pennsylvania Monday. The order characterizes him as a “dangerous incendiary and a menace to the military situation.” Rice's offense was publishing a state ment that Lieutenant Brauuersreuther, captain of the port, bad charged exces sive pilotage fees, a percentage of which be had kept for himself. The report ot .Major Hille, inspector general, who Investigated the allega tion, completely exonerated the cap tain of the port, and contradicted the editor and the merchants who had given him information, who had been misled by figuring the rates upon the net instead of the gross tonnage, the latter being specified under the Span ish law. Rice was summoned to the office ol the governor-general’s military secretary, and was called upon to promise that he would publish no more such articles. He declined to give such a pledge, but insisted that the ar ticle was truthful, and took up a defi ant attitude when threatened with de portation. The deportation order was then issued, and Rice is now awaiting the departure of the Pennsylvania. When seen in jail today he reiterated hie statement that the charges were true, and declared that in any event the severity of the sentence was unmer ited. Rice came originally from Red Wing, Minn., was formerly a member HANGING OF STICKEL. of the Minnesota volunteers.
