The Milwaukee Hotel Horror.
MiLwAuKrE, Jan. Ii. The hotel reg.
ister was tleseoyed by the fire, aud it is
impossible to determine the exact loss OF
life, or the usmes of the GUESTS Of the
house. There are such immense heaps
OF ruins from fallen and partially demol-
ished walls that thorough search for
the bodies cannot be commenced for sew
eral days yet. From the best sources
the loss Of life is estimated at nearly
one hundred. 1t is claimed by some
that the fire owad ito origin to
incendisrism, but nothing tangible dis
covered confirms this theory. Turing
the progress Of the terrible fire many
scenes OF thrilling interest and terror
were enacted. The insurance on the
hotel is stated at $l25. 900. and is all held
BY Cincinnati agencies. The loss can
scarcely be estimated, but will reach
e50O, 600. I6s hetsl was built by Daniel
