place.
Shortly after the arrival here of the

Vice Admiral Jose Patero, visited the

the customary courtesies.
The arrival of the warship caused
much surprise and excited considerable
curiosity.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 26.-The battle
ship Maine is in Havana harbor. The

Tortugas, and delivered the orders for

was about to sail when she left.
WASHINGTON, Jan, 26.--Two dis.

partment during the afternoon. One

Burning of the Great Easten
Block Accompanied BY Loss
of Life.
Property Loss Will AznOuTt 30
Four Hundred TnOusslz
Dollars.
Many Narrow Escapes Reported.
Three Storm Fatalities at
st. Louis.

SPOKANE, Jan. ga fire in which
the loss will run up to S40O,000 worth
of property and in which at least five
lives were lost, took place during the
night. The Great Eastern block, at
the corner of Post street and Riverside
avenue, 6 stories in height and con-
structed of brick, caught fire about
ll:l5 D. m. and in three hours was
totally demolished.
All of the upper two floors and part
of the third We're used for lodging pur-
poses and at least $50 people were asleep
in the building when the fire started.
While most of them escaped with only
their clothes, it is thought number
persisted. What makes the horror
greater is that no one knows who is
still imprisoned. AS the people were
removed from the burning structure or
escaped themselves, they sought places
of safety. The last out of the upper
floors report forms lying in the hall,
and women shrieking in the flames.
The origin of the fire is supposed to
have been in the engine room.
Explosion May Have Caused 1t.
Mrs. Stark Oliver, wife of DR.. Stark
Oliver, who lived on the second floor,
says she heard an explosion shortly be-
fore the flames appeared, the boiler of
the engine may have exploded and
caused the fire to start. There is an.
other theory, and that is the explosion
of some chemicals in the basement
stored there for the Photographic sup.
ply Of John w. Graham g Co. The
Great Eastern block was built in 1890,
at cost of $3.50, 900, and was owned by
Louis Levinski CT San Francisco, who
carried but $50,00 worth of insurance.
On the ground floor of the structure
was the estab blishments of the John W.

Graham carried stock worth $50, 900,
20 per cent covered by insurance.
The firm of Skerritt 6 Donnelly had
a stock of $25, 900, of which $40, 900 was
covered by insurance.
In the offices above this were big
losses on law libraries and fixtures, be-
sides probably still larger loss on fur
niture and household goods.
The fire was singularly hot one and
the fire department was long in getting
it under control. Even then the flames
rose hundreds of feet in the air as long
as two hours after its start
Mrs. H. Fl. @. Davies of Nebraska
City, Neb., fell or jumped from a fifth

A thrilling rescue was that OF Robert
Mason, his wife and their 2-year-ol1
son, from the fifth floor on the Post
street side. From a fire escape on the
fourth floor, seven feet to one side
from their window firemen threw them
a rope, which Mason made fast to his
bed, and came down, hard over hand,
carrying his boy, Mrs. Mason follow

the ground the crowd watched with
breathless interest. When she was
