Two million dollars worth of property
NJ Minneapolis, Mimi. went up in flames
Sunday afternoon. More than 200 houses
were burned and at least 1900 persons
made homeless. Only a change OF wind
saved the greater part Of the manufacturing
and residence section of the East Side.
The fire started in j. Il. Clark K Co.'s
box. factory, on the south end Of Nicollet
Island, at the head Of st. Anthony's Falls.
Nearly all the structures IN this vicinity
were of wood. dry az finder. and made splen-
did fuel for the flames. Ciark's box-iGct0ry
was doomed before even n stream of water
was thrown upon it. Next 70 1t (north)
Lenhart's wagOn-works and the Cedar
Lake ice.houses were wiped out OF ex-
istence. Further north were Linties *
Connells boller-works. and here the
heaviest loss on the island took place.
This firm had q stock valued at over
$50. 900 ard not cent of insurance. The
other losers are fairly well insured.
While this fire was at its height spark.

ablaze. Quickly jumping across the small
stretch of water separating the island from
tho main land, the flames gained q footing

where there were piled some lO,OO0,UOO feet

The fire fairly walked through the yard
and INTO that OF T.. w. Backus d Go. adj
ioinIng. BY this time it was impossible to
stop II, even had the whole fire depart
ment been on hand. Great embers flew
through the air and started fires many
blocks beyond the places where the fire.
men were at work. The flames were SIM
ply irresistible. Brick and stone struc-
tunes fell as easily as the merest shell.

was surrounded by wooden buildings It
was saved, and II IS the only structure be-

lance of three BLOCKS, that escaped the

ployees OF the mills and laboring-meu.
