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.

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

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

crown, and Egypt the order of Osman-
ieh. Australia presented him with a

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
