At 1918 o'clock this morning an exc

derneath the corner offices of the
ON -ha road and the American Express
company, and was Immediately followed
by a volume of smoke. With almost
incredible swiftness the whole building
was in flames. and the people i'll the
hotel and offices ran into the streets, in
some instances without waiting for
their coats and wraps. There was
general scramble for places of safety,
nor did they hurry any too rapidly, for
the old fire trap was being RAPIDLY de-
voured. The veneering cracked; the
woodwork burned faway, and, in half an
hour after the fire started, the north
west corner fell with loud crash.
This was followed fifteen minutes later
by another fall of bricks and burnt tim
Der. At 1885 all that was left standing
of the entire Michigan street and Firth
avenue sides collapsed together.
The heat was intense. When the fire
broke out the smoke was so thick that
the hotel could not be seen by a person
standing on Superior street, and the
large crowd congregated there stood in
GREATNESS silence, each person probably
asking himself the same question,
"Will they all get out?" Meanwhile
the night help, who had been sleeping
in the basement. came rushing ont half
dressed, and men and women who were
on the upper floors came hurrying down
the fire escapes and extension ladders.
People, pulling trunks behind them or
carrying satchels. came out through the
doors, and for moment regular panic
prevailed. j. II. Butchart, one of the
proprietors of the st. Louis, happened
at the time to be sick with pneumonia,
