were . mass OF flames. and in the short
space Of half An hour, the entire building
with its contents, valued at $3.50. 900, was
destroyed. At first il was thought that
some Of the $50 persons employed by the
firm had been burned. hut now it is thought
that evsrybody escaped from the building.
When the fire broke out. many of the
clerks and sewing girls were out at lunch,
and there were but few customers in the
store. There were many narrow escapes
and exciting scenes while the girls were be-
ing rescued from the upper stories. but no
serious injuries have As yet been reported.
The heat was 50 intense that the efforts OF
the entire fire department Of the city were
required to save the buildings on the oppo-
site side OF Main street from destruction
The loss by water in these stores will be
heavy.
The building was owned by c. J. Hamiin
and was insured for $,ltoo. Barnes, Hen
gerer / Co hold S6oo ugo insurance on their
stock. Across the street the firm OF u. r.
Morgan & Son. whose stock Is badly dam

and Mrs. X. J. Sherman, owner Of the
building. has $4,000.
Mr.. Rose, advertising agent for Barnes,
Hengsrer { Co, reports that all OF the
clerks have been accounted for and no one
was seriously hurt
The fire started in the paper room in the
basement. How il started is not really
known, but il is thought from a gas jet.
