The need of such a sale as this has been long felt and will be a great benefit to buyers as well Particulars of this sale will appear later, and meantime any persons having horses for sale wil! communicate with Messrs. E. H. Norton & Co., in order that they may have them properly listed and advertised.

A Terrible Disaster.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., March 17.

In a fire in Bowers & Merrill's bookstore this afternoon, the fire department seemed at a loss to locate the fire, and began pour- ing waterinto the building at the front, when the seat of the trouble was in the rear. The fight continued in this way for about two hours, when the entire building except the front wall fell inwards. At the time there were a number of firemen on the roof of the building, and they were buried in the debris. Four dead and fifteen injured were takea out, and two more are known to be in the ruins and are supposed to be dead. The loss is over $165,000.

InpIANOPOLIS, March 17—U P. M.

At this hour the work of excavating the ruins is still in progress. So far, ten fire- men are known to be dead.

The British |Flag Hoisted.

Mozampique, March 17.

Itis reported here that Buchanan, Acting Brit sh Consul, has hoisted and saluted the British tlag in the shire district.

Lisson, March 17.

The action of Buchanan in hoisting the British flag in the Shire District has caused great excitement here. The government have made a formal protest to Lofd Salis- bury against the action of Buchanan, The feeling runs so high that it is feared an at- tack may be made upon the British lega- tion, and troops have been placed there to prevent a hostile demonstraation, The cabinet were speedily summoned this after- noon to censider the situation.

There is now strong probability that the divorce suit of Capt. O'Shea against his wife and Mr. Parnell will not reach trial before the fall. Mr. Parnell has asked for and ab tained further and fuller details of the times and places of the alleged offences. He is en- titled to three weeks in which to file an answer, and will probably ask for an exten- sion of time.
