Fire in Moline.

seen to issue from one of the east windows
of the Moline Paper Co. g straw room, and
shortly after the flames burst through the
windows aud spread rapidly. An alarm
was quickly sounded. and 10 few minutes
Chas. o. Mason, 10 charge of Deere Il
Co. s fire brigade had stream on the
fire; getting water from the hydrant at
Deere's plow factory. The FIRE appliances
of the paper company were quickly
brought into requisition and before the
fire engine arrived two streams were play
Jog on the flames. The Ere at FIRST was
very difficult TO control, the combustible
material and the intense cold making it
almost impossible for the 6remen to DO
efficient service. The excitement run
high for while, as it was feared that the
flames could not be controlled and that the
Deere pillow works, the Plow Co., and other
buildings would be burned Everybody
turned out and worked like Trojans, some
had their hands, others their feet frozen.
About $50 Deere & Go. telegraphed to
Rock Island for help and the steamer and
Third Ward Co., went to Moline to as
sist. The fire continued to fash up oc-
casionally, and although there we're eleven
streams of water playing, it seemed i'm
possible to put the fire out. In the rear
of gthe straw room, is the chemical room
where is stored probably $l8,000.worth OF
chemicals and every effort was made to
save them as, had they iRnited, nothing
could have saved the property. At ll:3O
A. NJ. the fire was under control and con-
fined to the straw room. Some rags ignlted
in the rag room but were thrown out and
the flames 10 that quarter stopped. The
damage from water will be considerable, al
eleven streams were constantly playing
upon the fire. The value of system Of
water works was thoroughly demonstrated
to-day, this being the FIRST FIRE of any mag
nitude that has occurred since the by
drants were put IN. Although gooC
enough ordinarily, still! to be thoroughly
effective there should be q
least double the number of by
drants and more extensive mains. Mr.. S
", Wheelock says ii is i'm possible to tel
Just what the Joss will be, but he thinks i
will run'about $4,000 to $1,000, and if tn
chemicals are damaged the loss will reacl
$4,000, which is fully covered By insur
ance. The Rock Island boys, and all 9th
ers were royalty treated by Mr.. Wheelock
who left orders at the Reform Club Roou
for hot coffee and doughnuts for all VII
/ saw ct to go and psrtake. Those who Pre-
} ferred TO go elsewhere were treated t
whatever they waited at Mr. Wheelock'
expense. Everybody turled out az
helped aud some suffered terribly from colo
! Ben. Perregoy amung the number, who's
hands were badly frozen But for II
water works aud the excellent manage
ment ct G. D. Mason, who had charge {
the Ere brigade, bre involving loss {
hundreds of thousand might have occurre
aud hundreds been thrown out Of worl
, Everyone will be thankful that the loss is S
, light; there would have been sad hearts
Moline tonight if the paper mill, plo
works and other buildings had burned.
