OMAHA. Nov. 2.-Just as the mon were
going to work in the big beef-house of the
Hammond Packing Plant at o'clock
this morning flames were discovered on
the second floor They quickly spread to
the third and fourth floors. Hammond's
fire department started to fight the fire,
but the water pressure was so light that
1t was impossible to accomplish any
thing. Word was at once sent to Omaha,
and available apparatus was hurried to
the scene, for, as a high wind was blow
ing, the fire threatened to spread to the
house of Swift & Co. and the stock yards.
All the efforts of the firemen were con-
fined to keeping the fire from spreading,
as there was no possible show of saving
the big beef-house, four-story structure
400x200 feet, which originally cost $780,
600, and was filled with valuable ma
chinery and large amount of beet.
The efforts OF the firemen to cOntine the
flames to this house proved successful
but only at a cost of two lives. At ii
O'Clock one of the walls fell, and two fire.
men belonging to the private department
of the packing company were buried
under tons Of burning timbers and red
hot bricks. Their names are John Steele
and Henry Peters. When taken from the
debris it was discovered that both men
were still grasping the hose nozzle. Steele
was married last Wednesday. Insurance
on the property destroyed amounts to
S220, 900. The loss will be almost double
that amount.
The firemen of the two cities are busy
tonight trying to cool the big pile Of
ruins and controlling small blaZes that

merous conflicting estimates of the dam

places the loss at S350,0OO This may be
increased or lessened many thousands
when the unburnt part OF the building
cools sufficiently to be inspected. On the
Hammond plant Sl,600.000 insurance is
carried, $3.50, 600 of which covers the dam
aged portion, and some think will cover
all the loss.
