Chicago Oct. y7.-Twenty-five fire en-
gines and two steam fire tugs fought a
battle royal with a big blaze on Goose
Island at noon yesterday. The Pacific ele-
vators, owned by the Chicago and Pacific
Elevator company, were found to be on
fire at 11:45 O'Clock. The two elevators
were destroyed, together with a number Of
small frame buildings in the immediate
vicinity. The loss is estimated at d 500.
600. The locality Is as dangerous as could
be selected for a big fire. The two Pacific
elevators, A and B. were well filled with
wheat and OF themselves would furnish
material for n goodly condagration. Di-
rectly to the north is the Armour elevator.
the largest in the world, stocked to the
roof with grain.
To the northeast is the immense malt
ing house Of Hale & Curtis, while within
gunshot lie the coal shed and dock of the
Crescent Coal company, stocked with
thousands of tons Of bituminous coal
Lumber yards in the immediate vicinity
offer further material for the spread of a
blaze, in addition to which there are any
number of frame cottages scattered
around. The Pacific elevator was COM
posed of three separate buildings, each six
stories in height. and the heat caused by
the burning buildings was SO intense that
the firemen were unable to get within a
block of the blaze. P. J. Perry, the grain
superintendent of the elevator, said that
there was over l,OOO,0o bushels of wheat
stored in two Of the buildings, known as
elevators A and B. Superintendent Perry
also said the building was valued at $780,
900. and is fully covered by insurance

position and awaited further develop
ments. Early on the morning of Oct.
