A BROKEN BOOM

Sends Millions OF Feet of Logs Crashing
Through Wisconsin Own-Heavy Loss
to Luinberincn.
SUPERIOR, Wis, June 14.-Several mill
lion feet Of logs broke loose from the
booms above Cloquet yesterday and came
tearing down the stream to the island, on
which several hundred people live, doing
great damage. The buildings carried
away were as follows: The Freeman
House, Everett House, Tyndalrs
saloon and boarding-house, Bovey's
barber-shop, Wullace's flour and
feed store, McCullougbs saloon, Blake
ston's and Smiths saloons, the courthouse
and Jail, and the dwellings Of Geo. Price,
Anthony Shannon, Geo. Shaffcy and NJ L.
McGovcrn. Thirty or forty buildings are
completely surrounded by water to the ex-
tent of seven or eight feet, and most Of
them have been abandoned. The loss to
lumbermen ut Cloquet will be enormous,
as the logs will have to be picked up
when they reach tho lake by tugs, and it
will be impossible to save them all. Tho
loss thus far is roughly estimated at $500, :
