A COSTLY FIRE
Property Worth 100000 Burned and
Two Firemen Killed at Indianapolis.

Property Worth $780, 900 Burned and
Two Firemen Killed at indianapolis.
Indianapolis. Ind. Dec. 4.-The most
destructive fire in money sense that
Indianapolis has ever known occurred
in the wholesale district on South
Meridian street Tuesday morning, lay
ing a quarter of a square in ruins and
burning out seven large concerns. Five
firemen were injured, two so badly that
they died later. They were: Patrick
Murphy and Frank Sloan, both single
men. Those injured were: Warren
Sloane, Frank Arnett, Capt j. D..
George. None of them are seriously
hurt. however.
The fire was started at s: 80 by the
collapse of the third floor of the whole
sale grocery house of Schnull & Co.
The falling debris struck the stock of
parlor matches and started the blaze.
The house was full of employees and
clerks and the escapes of many of them
were marvellous. In two minutes after
the crash the whole building was III
flames and though the alarm was
when the department arrived. The fire
spread rapidly to the wholesale drug
house of Ward Brothers, on the south
and the liquor houses of Eckhouse
Brothers and Woodford q Pohlman on
the north.
There was heavy explosion in Ward
Eros store, followed by tottering
walls, and Patrick Murphy was pinned
ia the ruins. He was rescued with diff
fculty and died before reaching the
hospital. A few minutes later another
section of the wall fell, catching Arnett,
Frank and Warren Sloane and Capt.
George with falling bricks. The fire
was gotten under control at noon. The
extreme cold weather impeded the work
of the firemen not little, and all they
endeavored to do was to prevent the
spread of the fire. This was difficult
from the nature of the stock carried by
the burned-out concerns.

HOLDS THE RECORD.
The New York Central Now Runs the
Fastest Regular Train.


Buffalo. N. Y. Dec. 5.-The Empire
State express on the New York Central
railroad, after two futile attempts to
reduce the running time between New
York and Buffalo, succeeded Wednes-
day in wiping out all previous records
by making the schedule time So 1-3 miles
per hour and arriving at the Grand Gen.
trail depot. this city, with FIVE minutes
to spare. If there was any doubt a bout
the question. this demonstrates beyond
dispute that the Empire State express
is the fastest long-distance train in the
world.
The Empire State express now holds
the worlds record as the fastest regu-
lar passenger train. The speed of the
best trains of foreign nations is: Eng
land, SITS miles per hour: Germany,
s1-25; France, Ass; Belgium, 1904;
Holland. 44.73; Italy, 42.34; Austria
Hungary. AIS. America now heads
the list with $3.50 miles per hour to tine
credit of the Empire State express
For more than four years this train
has made its daily run of 40 miles in
520 minutes, which is at the rate of 81
miles an hour, including four stops and
as slow-downs. Its new time of 495
minutes is not that of an experimental
run. but is scheduled for daily service
between New York and Buffalo until d
further reduction becomes practica bic.
The best single run between the two
cities was made on September IL last,
when the New York Central train COW
cred the distance Of 1864 miles to East
64Hs miles an hour. This was IL
niles an hour better than the best Eng
lish record on a similar distance, and
the New York Central now holds the
worlds records for the best single run
and for the fastest regular long-dis-
lance train
