by Flames.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 3O.-Fire broke
out in the Central power station of the
Capital Traction company at II o'clock
and in 30 minutes the magnificent g.
story structure was doomed. The
building occupies an entire block. The
blaze started on the southwest corner

the enormous building. The flames
leaped across Four teenth street on the
west to big livery stable and on the
east to row of 3-story brick houses,
which was destroyed. The entire fire
department was on the scene. but so
fierce was the confagration that their
efforts were futile. The loss will be
about 100000 on buildings, 100000 on
machinery and stored cars, while the
losses sustained by tenants will amount
to $500, 900 more. 9-s
The fire started in the printing Office
OF Harvey & Gettinger. 1t had soon
gained such Roadway that it was evil
dent nothing could be saved, and the
alarm was sounded TO the large force of
men at work in the building. Many Of
them We're compelled to jump from the
windows so rapidly did the flames pro-,
gress. Within half an hour after the
fire started the entire building was en-
veloped and the flames seemed to soar
over 100 feet into the air. The falling
OF the heavy 6-story walls shook the
buildings for squares around.

for some time in raising the cargo of
copper of the steamer Pewabic, off AL
