MINNEAPOLIS. July 30.-Twenty acres
of lumber piles, containing about 100000
feet OF lumber belonging to the Shevlin-
Carpenter Lumber Company, situated on
the west bank of the river. within a
quarter of "a mile OF the centre of the

Minneapolis and Omaha railroad round
house, Immediately adjoining the yards

twenty-one freight-cars and the valuable
Pinstch gas plant.
Carelessness on the part OF the engineer
of an Omaha switch engine, who neglect
ed Ia close the damper Of his engine
while passing the yards, Is supposed to
have been the cause OF the fire. A spark
from the engine Is thought to have fallen
among the piles OF lumber. which. dried
by long weeks Of drought made excellent
fuel for the flames.
The Star elevator took fire In several
places, bul was saved. Numerous fires
were also started In different parts OF the
city, but In every case they were extin-
guished in short order.
The principal losers are as follows:
