YESTERDAY. , - Owing to the fact that the North Division was accessible onlv across Kiuzie and Division street bridge aiid through the dark LaSalle street tnu- nel, passage through which was forbidden to teams the people wh- ye:erday visited that quarter of the city were chiefly those who hntrrorniprlj liTcd here, and were limiting fur shreds and scraps of property, or were trying ta find the places where they bad once lived and the property they had once -owned. The great rash of visitors ou root and in carriages -was across Randoih. Lnke, end Madison afreet bridges into tha S orrth Division. People from the tt'wr Side, from lower down on the Soul b Division, and strangers who bad just reached (he city, all turned in that direction, and wandered from point - to point, often puzslrd In their whnreahouts, and seeking in vaiu for old and miliar landmark. The prin-7 cipal business iu the Sooth Division yesterday was f thC DIGGING OUT OF SAFES i from the smoking- hnildhigs iu which they were buried. , Several rjerj-oris -warti smart en.rnrh to i. make that a hosine-s, aud iher succeeded iu getting all the woik they wauled.

Many of the safe csmc up iu excellent condition, while others wero ' the most deplorable wreck. One of Herring's lay on llivcr street near Rush street bridge, the Interior wcudwork gono, and all the pnpers charreil. The Harris cafe of Declfcvbacher who is m the tobacco, business nn Water street, was also found to he worthless. It contained papers valued at about $ 10,000.. others were taken, out which bad anpar. ently passed anharod through the fiery trial.

Law's coal yard, on the south ride of the street, is on fire, and even where the flames have not broken oat, the white smoke is pouring out at k fearful rate, foroe of It may, however, be saved, by the liberal aud constant use of star. Beyond there, going east, there is practically nothing nntil the relics or hi: Otis Block ara reached at the corner of LaSalle nd MadUon.

The Michigan Central freight depot has also been cleaned out, though the walls are up to lh spring of the roof. Quito an amount of sugar was lost here.
