Before the Are was extinguished It caused losses of between fifty and sixty thousand dollars. Trains on the Elevated Road were blocked by the flames. The blockade occurred all the way down: to" South Ferry, and on down the track up to 17th street. A' num ber of passengers left one of the trains at 17th street and started to walk along the narrow foot path . at the side of the track, to the station at 14th street. While doing so the blockade was relieved, and the trains began to start. Their motion shook the pathway to such an extent that a number of passengers were thrown - down to the street ; Three of.these were instantly kill ed, and Beven others badly injured.-. ; v -; ' Soon j after the fire occurred the down track was blockaded with trains, from 9th to 52nd street All the trains were crowd ed witn people.

The shaking of tbe track and the noise and rash of the cais apparently frightened Matthews, because he turned and ; made a dash for the cr plat form.; Tfce man next behind ; him did the !eamev but - Matthews' hold ! ap parently broke, and he toppled backward upuu ine man oemna mm. uotn fell back ward into tbe street The commotion cre ated on ibe platform by this occurrence frightened and demoralized others close to it. 1 a.. uiem.. oumtj came in collision - and fell, while other?, in the panic jumped from the platform to the Btreet below, and still oth ers hurriedly scrambled upon passing cars. Bhouts and screams outside communicated a panic to passengers inside the cars, and manV WOmen fainted , Thn 'traina vara, stopped and every body remaining on the platform was taken On board the cars. Ten men fell or leaped to the street about twen ty feet below, and struck upon the surface car track or stone pavement. Four were killed outritht. their skull, being crushed in each instance. The other six were seri ously hurt - One has since died in the hos pital and another is reported dying.

It was the wish of the family that the funeral should be as quiet as possible. This bulletin was issued: ''Services at the house will be con fined absolutely to relatives, without any exception, being it manifest that a selection outside the family circle,, would be impos sible, the house being too small to hold even a small part of the deceased's nearest friends. , Tbe interment win be Greenwood Cemetery, in accordance with agreement between Mr Beecher and Dr. Hall, that whoever died first the other should officiate at the funeral, Dr. C.

" WASHINGTON, 1 - Poaalbte Premature R.jolclne Over t-te Experiment Station Bill Re- : mevala of Caatoma aiBeera Ordered . by tbe President. v y. r- j , Bv Telegraph to the Morninic Star. : Washington, March 9 Agricultural colleges the land over are flying their flags, and the people who are interested in them are rejoicing in consequence of the passage of the Experiment Station bill; but a ques tion has arisen which would appear to in dicate that the demonstrations are nrema- ture. The fifth section of the bill says: "The sum of (15,000 is hereby appropria ted to each State, to be specially provided for by Congress in appropriations from year to year, from sales of public lands, the first payment to be made on the first day of Oc tober, 1887.", This singular phraseology has been held to be an appropriation clause, hut close inspection of it has given rise to doubts, the weight of inofficial opinion be ing that no money is appropriated. : If this ifi anatftinRl- hv thn nnthnrltina tha -tirtn ning of the new work will be delayed until Congress acts further. -. The President to day directed the re moval of James D. Bowie, collector of customs at Petersburg, Va., and John Men tha w, supervising inspector of steam ves sels for the Third District, which includes the Atlantic coast from Cape Charles, Va., to the extreme end of Floridae. The latter has twice been suspended from office .and then restnredtrt flllt.v htnca nf failnm nf the Senate to act onjthe nomination of his successor, in maaing inese removals tne President has taken advantage for the first ume vi me repeal ot tne tenure oi omce act. , From Sassafras, Kent Co., Md.

It stretches from ew York almost to lhn.utterm.tt parts of the South, and far into the West It In cludes the Central Railroad of New Jersey, the Philadelphia and , Reading system KichmoDd Terminal and Richmond & Dan Tille properties, East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia lines, Central Railroad of Geo '5. 5nd now-lat of all the Baltimore Ohio. : And ot all these properties there 18 tO be maria .

President of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Company, was seen to-day, but had noth ing to say in regard to tbe reported arrange ments for a transfer of the control of that road. The New York Times. conUioing a statement which appear4 . authentic, -has created a sensation herej The city, as a corporation, Ms largely interested in the Baltimore "& Ohio, and there are private in terests which are opposed to the contioi of the road going out of Baltimore hands The . Baltimore . & Ohio road has been looked upon as a Baltimore enterprise, and while Garrett has preserved silence as to every tntnic that has been rumored, there are many who fear, that theMjs truth in the statements published in the TbH&r. There is a convictiun here that if the road shall pass intd other bands the ex pres. and tele graph syttems will go with it The matter is discussed on exchanges and street cor ners, and while somo approve many con demn the action. J 1 . ' New Yobk, March-'9. The Evening Post of to-day, in its ifloancial: article, says: Tho attention of the street and the general public has been ejecenttated upon the progress -of a scheme foi the amalgama tion of half a doz-tj great railroad proper ties under control of the Richmond TermU nal Sjndicite, with so much skepticism about irs success that even when it was openly nd positively stated by members of the syndicate that they had acquired con trol of the Baltimore and: Ohio, speculators andothets apparently waited for further developments to show the extent of the whole scheme before taking much interest in the market The prevailing belief Is that a settlement of the telegraph war will be one of the results or the Jersey Central. Reading. Baltimore ft Ohio. Richmond Terminal combination. It la acknowledged that the Bilto. ft Ohio would like to part with its telegraph property, which f in, the present state of war with the Western Union has been a continual 'loss ' 4 the Baltimore ft Ohio. . The Western Union people would of course hold off and talk as though they did not want to . buy, but on the other hand. Gould controls over four thousand miles of railroad west of the Mis sissippi and south of St. 'Louis. This sys tem of road, comes to the Mississippi at two points, viz.: St. Louis, where it would connect with the Ohio & Mississippi." con trolled by the Baltimore ft Ohio, and also at Memphis, where it would connect- with tne luenmond Terminal road. An eastern outlet and fine terminal facilities in Jersey City for their own properties may eventually have some influence in settling the telegraph war It is the further development of these 'possibilities that the public seemed to be waiting tor to-usy. -s -"Balttmobe, March 9. Robert Garrett has been seen since 1 o'clock to-day. and the statement in the New York Times was read by him. : He still persevered in the statement that he has notbiog to sav about the rumored deal, .t is stated, however. by one to whom Garrett talked.1 that he used the : expression, "We are in New York." - - The excitement increases .here, because or tne refusal of Garrett to make any com municatioD in regard to the matter. The most careful inquiry cannot discover that the- city authorities have been consulted, though the city owns more than one-fifth vi tue enure siock or ine Baltimore est unto Railroad. The city, with Johns Hopkins Univereity and the Garrett family, own a in telegraphic circles ; there appears as mucn ignorance or wnat nas been going on as elsewhere. People here generally have ..... .i . . . ., . .. . . eciueu uuwa to me conclusion mat a deal has been effected, and that Ralti mmu will become only a way station in the great rail' ruau sy stem.
