Laundry in the Basement.

Inc cottage was erected OF stone and
granite walls with wooden interior and
was intended for laundry purposes, but
owing to the crowded condition of the
main building 40 of the ieinale patients
were placed here with the Laundry IN
the basement. The exact cause of the
tire is not known, except that it orig
mated in the dryroom OF the laundry.
The lack Of water greatly hindered
the work of the firemen. Tho burned
cottage stands 800 feet in the rear of the
main building, tho water tank for fire
protection standing 100 feet in the rear
of the cottage. The steam pipes used
for pumping ran from the boiler room
to the main building through the COT
tage; tor heating and then to tho artesian
well OF tank. The Intense heat in tho
b9rning building caused tho pipes to
burst shortly after tho fire began" With
the, thermometer standing at
Twenty.thrss Degrees Below xsro,
the inmates who could eacape came
down the narrow fight Of stairs in their
night clothing and bare feet into the
bitter cold and had it not been for the
nearness Of shelter the suffering and
probable loss of life would have been
terrible. The building was three stories
high with an attic and two entrances;
one east and one west. There was ono
stairway from the second and third
floors, which led into the main halls to
these entrances, thus giving but one
exit for those on the second and third
floors and attic. Fifty-two persons were
in the burning building, 40 patients and
II female attendants. The attendants
escaped, as did the others who were
saved, with none of their personal ef-
fects. many losing all they possessed.
An inquest is now in progress at the
asylum. which may develop the exact
cause. It is not thought blame will at
tach to any of the attendants.
