THE CONFEDERATION AT ITS HEIGHT.

Shortly before o'clock an alarm
came in from Fourth avenue north and
River street, where the plant of Shevlin
& Carpenter. the lumbermen, was
located. The fire department responded
promptly, for the district is dangerous
one and no time is ever lost in getting
there with the apparatus.
A huge black volume of smoke rising
straight to the skies told the story of
something sensational, portentous,
about TO occur. Fire had caught in one
of the lumber piles in the mammoth
yard of Shevlin & Carpenter, and before
single stream was playing on them the
wind set up and created raging, seeth-
Ing furnace, which 1t seemed nothing
could eXtinguish save floou or cloud
burst. The piles of lumber which
caught fire were located in that portion
Of the yard which began directly above
and north Of the Minneapolis & Omaha
round house, The lumber firm had two
yards. OK sections of yards. and the fire
originated In the upper section. The
two yards contained altogether 24,O0O,-
600 feet Of lumber, piled In tiers that
reached several stories high. For some
reason or other the water supply was
poor. aud the streaEs that were first
thrown onto the fire were small end IN.

the tool houses, the gas storage house,
the Oil storage house aud about two
dozen freight cars. The freight cars
belonged to. not alone the Omaha line,
but various of the Eastern and South
ern lines. all of which contained more or
less freight. When the fire commenced
the roundhouse contained eleven
engines. four of whinch were fired and
ready for switching purposes. The
railroad employees got them out and az
the extreme end of the yard before the
flames entered and swept the building
away.
When the fire was at its height the
heat was so intense that for blocks
around the paint on buildings shriveled
up on tue boards. 1t was as if sheol
had opened Its furnace gates and given
! Minneapolis the full benefit of the heat
from the fire Of lost souls. The lremen
worked with will, but the heat was so
excessive that at times 1t was found
necessary for the firemen to run back
from their posts. Their faces and hands
bIistered aud burned as though exposed
for weeks to the burning rays OF the
sun. There was no stopping that lum.
Der from being eaten up by the flames.
1t was as dry as dry could be, and the
water poured on by the hremen was
absorbed quickly. Every apparatus In
the city was called for and put In an
appearance. Still more AID was needed,

WASHINGTON. July so. - In the
house today, Nr. Boutelle, of Maine.
presented. as question of privilege,
joint resolution congratulating the
people of Hawaii on the establishment

Resolved, by the senate and house Of

worth ones life to operate an engine
near the burning cars.
To add to the confusion several New
York Central cars, standing right at the
edge of the north end of the Omaha
freight house, began to burn. and IN
another moment the freight house itself
was oD fire.
1t took the hardest kind of work to
put the blaze out. The flames ran along
the tracks and ground like so much
liquid gold, because of the oil and other
greasy material which had dripped from
the cars and allowed to accumulate
for years. The very ground was on
fire. and the ties went up like finder.
Toward 6 o'clock the firemen managed
to get under control the flames In the
upper yard, though 1t was not until all
the lumber. with the exception of few
hundred piles. had been eaten up.
The strength of the department was
then massed at the lower end of the
yard near the saw mills on Fourth
avenue. and the river. A Gordon of fire.
men with streams of water pouring
into the furnace was formed and the
mills were soaked with water. 1t was a
hard battle to keep the mills from
going. Time after time the roof of one of
the mills. the main one, caught FIRE, and.
1t was only by the most artistic maneuy-,
ering that 1t was extinguished. An acre
or so Of saw dust was swept up without
ado. and clear to the river bank the

on every side. The ruundhonse was
hemmed in on all sides but one, and the
gas house and oil storage house in the
rear soon became entangled in the
masses of flame. The gas house con.
tained three tanks filed with gas used
for lighting the through trains. 1t was
made and stored there. The oil house
contained many hundred gallons of oil.
Men acquainted with the premises gave
the people warning to stand back, for
should an explosion occur death might
ensue. The word passed down the line
that the gas and oil houses were burn
ing and might explode, and the curious
crowd fled like rats dessrting a sinking
ship.
AT O'Clock the round house and the
two storage houses were one mass OF
red and black. Suddenly there came a
fearful explosion which shook the
ground and caused the crowds TO recoil
in terror. The gas house exploded and
the flames, brick, debris and huge
pieces of iron few heavenward as
though shot from q cannop's mouth.
The roundhouss and gas house then
tottered and fell and five minutes later
another explosion occurred. The oil
storage house went this time. The
noise Of the explosion was much louder
than that of the gas and there followed
roar like that Of q hundred tempests.
The oil bissed and roared. The flames
that shot up weTS darker of tint and
more hideous OF aspect than those en-
anating from the burning lumber.
1t was not long after the explosion
that the reundhouse crpmbled and fell

the walls coming down with crash.
The tall brick chimney stood alone de-
fiant and stern. The two explosions
caused brands of fire to fly in every di :
rection, and the cars in the yard that
had not yet been moved were ignited.
The Star elevator caught fire. One OF
the cupolas was burning before the men
Oh top with hose could bring the streams;
of water to bear on it. Then the lodges
of the windows near the roof began to
burn, and for time it appeared as
though that mammoth structure would
have to go with the rest. Happily, how
ever, well-directed stream put stop
to the blaze, though during the remain
der of the day the men were obliged to
| fight fire.
In the meantime the lumber In the
lower yard was burning as though life
depended upou its being consumed in
the shortest order possible. From one

so ST. Paul was telegraphed to. Later
in the afternoon several engines and
other apparatus arrived on fiat cars
over the Great Northern road.
The flames continued to sweep toward
the Plymouth avenue bridge. and then
reached over the railroad tracks toward
the Star elevator and the row of busi-
ness houses that face First street. but
whose back doors back up against the
tracks. A long line of Union Oil tanks
stood on the tracks. as did several hun
dred freight cars. Water was poured
On them, and but few of the cars caught
fire. These were not wholly burned,
and the tanks suffered only little dis
comfort from the heat.
From the north section of the lumber
yards the flames reached over to the
roundhouse and set the roof on fire.

They cracked and hIssed In the ex-
uberance OF their spirits, for it was a
feast worth the taking. The firemen
found themselves with harder fight to
handle than ever, for the wind veered
around and blew directly toward the big
saw mills and the Brush Electric Light
plant. Then the water became
obstinate and declined to come
with any degree of force, and
taxing 1t altogether there was the
"de'ir" to pay. Men ran about like mao
things. and engines p1ffed back and
forth endeavoring to pull the cars to a.
place of safety. Wholesale houses
whose freight was still in the cars had
their teams rushing back and forth by
the score. The upper end of the yards
and the tracks near the union depot
soon became so blocked that it was i'm,
possible to crowd any more cars in. Be-

Slckiy Report Made by q Grand
jury.
CHICAGO, July S0.-A grand jury to-
day filed report IN court saying:
I'VE find that gambling is being car
ried OH to its fullest extent, with doors
wide open and cappers and stool pig
cons plying their vocation to catch the
unwary for tue purpose of fleeing any
victim who happens to fall into their
hands, and that the heads of the police
department of this city are giving some
of the places mentioned below ample
protection from arrest and proSecu-
ton"
A list of places at which it is alleged
that gambling is being carried on is
appended. The jury gives as reason
for not returning indictments against
the proprietors of these places that the
assistant states attorney informed them
that it was impossible to secure conyic-
tions. The assistant states attorney
denies having made this statement. He
says he merely told the jury that 1t was

Next. several huge piles of boards in
the lower yard became ignited, and
then ensued scene that rivaled any
thing witnessed in this city for long
time. The firemen moved number of
their apparatus around to the lower
yard and attempted with few streams
to check the awful march of flames.
They might as we'll have thrown peb-
bles into the ocean with hope of rails

act like off, for the flames grew fiercer
