NEW YORK. June 1.-THE United
States government Immigrant station
on Ellis Island, in New York harbor.
was destroyed by FIRE this morning, but
with probably no loss of life. The fire
was arst seen at l2:2s a, m, by the look
out from the harbor police station. He
first noticed a flame about as large as a
mans hand coming out OF the window
on the second hOor toward the eastern
end. The FIRE spread rapidly. Al lO5
a. m the caves alOug the entire ROOF
began to fall, setting fire 10 the wooden
piers and docks on either side.
At l:l2 q. m, the whole island was
mass OF flames illuminating the entire
Inner harbor and the lower part of New
York City. As quickly as possible two
sections OF police. twenty men, and the
police patrol launches were sent to the
island. An alarm was Immediately
sent 10 the lower precinct police sta
tions of the city. and twenty-five men
were ordered 10 the scene. The hre-
boat New York was soon under head

cords are undoubtedly destroyed.
The 200 immigrants were safely trans
ferred from the island to the barge office
~ the Battery. leaving no one on the Is
land except the firemen and a few at
