about fifty feet from the ground, when be
was compelled to loosen bis hold. His hands
were badly lacerated, and also the back of
his neck, as though he has vanly endeav-
ored to support himself in that manner.
TWO PISTOL SHOTS.
Two pistol shots were heard during the
progress of the fire, and it is supposed some
of the printers eade their existence. Thus
far no trace of them has been found. One
of the unidentified dies at the morgua
has since Been recognized as that Of W. 4.
Miles, night agent of the Associated Press.
How he met his death is not yet known.
A report that Daniel MaloneY, a printer,
was dead, proved to be erroneous, as he has
been seen since.
Jimmy Kohl, amessenger boy on the Tri-
buRe, is said to be missing.
Charles Alf Williams and his brother
Sam had narrow escapes, and both are
badly burned.
1t is feared that the list of dead will in
crease.
STORY OF THE PROPRIETOR.
A. J. Blenthen, proprietor of,the Tribune,
says that he heard the cry Of fire and started
down stairs TO investigate On the thi d
floor he found flames bursting out of the
Union League rooms, and some man trying
unsuccessfully to subdue them. He jumpe
into the elevator to get fire extinguisher,
which he supposed was on the
fourth floor and .arted up after 1t. Before
reaching the supposed location Of the extin-
guisher he was half suffocated by smoke,
and was compelled to leave the building
Toe flames were to the north of the eleva-
tor, and shot up the elevator shaft and
stairway with terrible rapidity.
PENNED IN BY THE FLAMES.
Those on the upper floors, who had not
previously got out, were penned in by fire,
which cu5 off the way in most instances to
the fire escapes on the north side of the
building. Mr.. Blenthen is of the opinion
that eleven lives have been lost.
The loss has been placed by MIR. Blenthen
at $250.000, with an insurance of about
$l25, 900.
The Tribune will be issued as usual in the
morning, the st. Paul Globe giving it the

Oddly enough the caucus wound
