M1NSEApoL1s, Aug. l4.-The most
disastrous fire in the history of the
Twin Cities was that which swept
down upon Minneapolis Sunday after
noon and in few hours had licked up
over $1,O0O,00 worth Of property and
sacrificed human life to its fierce fury.
The property destroyed included five
saw mills, two sa:h and door factories,
carriage factory, box factory, boiler
factory, two ice houses, a brewery
plant, 1GO dwelling houses and 100, ,0O0,-
900 feet of lumber. The district burned
comprised the lower half of Nicollet
island, all of Boom island and IL section
of the city along the east side of the
river from Boom island to Twenty
second avenue north. The
Heart of the Lumbc" District
of the city was the path chosen by the
conhagration, and the lumber and
buildings which had been rendered as
dry as tinder by the hot weather of the
past few weeks, was easy fuel to the
flames, and it was beyond human effort
to save them.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.-A fire in the

the service Of that company tonight.
The fire broke. out at 6 o'clock, and was
discovered by pedestrians on the street,
who saw the flames curling over the
roof of the Corcoran building at the cor
ner of Pennsylvania avenue and F

warned the occupants of the operating
room on the upper floor, and an alarm
of fire was turned in. bringing the en-

building had neither fire escapes nor
stand pipes, and the firemen had great
difficulty in reaching the flames. The

With the electric light wires they made
quite an electric display. When the

passengers were robbed. Engineer
Shaffer and Fireman TuSSler saw Curry
