St. Mary's hospital was destroyed by fire last night. The loss is $(i.i,(l()(). Fireman Frank Javue was fatally injured by falling from a ladder. None of the patients ere in ured. There were in the hospital veslcrday III 10 patients, 10 sisters, and fully that num ber of employees. The inmates were 111 ill singes ol disease, and many unable to et Irom their IkiIs. Immediately alter the lire was discovered and the darm was given, a scene ol wildest con fusion ensued. The corridors were filled with a tcrrilied crowd ol patients, sonic clad only in their night clothes, nnd nil trembling in abject terror. 1 hey were all asleep when the gong sounded its warning, but it was the work ot only a moment for the sisters to clothe them selves in their black rolies. Never before have women worked more nobly than did those gentle sisters. They were every where, regardless of personal I comfort or safety, and to them alone should go the majority ol the credit ot saving the lives ol the patients. 1 he insurance on the hospital building is $.'0,000 or $rj,000, divided between three different companies. The entire building bad lust Iwcn repaired, and $311,00(1 worth of beds and liedding had been put in. "JACK THE RIPPER."

Mr. Fithinn) which he was immediately sorry for. He had said that the gentleman from Illinois Imd a rieht to make a fool of himself, but not with his (Taylor's) consent.

The latest discovery made by the metropolitan police in con nection with the Whitcchaiiel murder Friday morning last, by which the wo man known as "Carrotv Nell" lost her lite, bids fair to connect the mnn Sadler, now in custody, with this "Jack the RipiR'r" crime. 1 he metropolitan police now nave in their possession a sharp, dangerous look inc knife, stained with blood and show inc traces of having recently been washed. The blood stains were examined micro scopically by Dr. Phillips, police surgeon attached to the Lewau street ponce sta tion. Dr. rhilhps has no doubt that the stains arc those ot human blood. This formidable knife hns been traced to the possession of Sadler, who s hreri'an on board a steamer winch has recently arrived from Turkey.

This city was yesterday visited by a conflagration which destroyed $."i00,00o worth of proierty and caused the death of John MeCannoii, a member of the volunteer lire brigade. The fire started in the premises occupied by F. S. Tiersky, watch maker and jeweler, on Colum bia street, and the whole block of buildings was ablaze before the depart ment had succeeded in gelling to work. For two hours the hrcmcn fought the flames nnd were at last getting them under control when an explosion oc curred in the rear of one store. It broke almost every pane ol glass within a (litis of half a mile and burst (ill the hose ptunninc on the fire. The Masonic temple next adjacent had un to this moment liecn considered abso lutely safe, but the breakage of windows caused a draft, which sucked the flames inward, and in n minute the whole inte rior of the building was on fire. It was a four story brick building, valued nt $0,000, occupied by stores, offices, lodge rooms and provincial registry ofliccs.
