der. One man was lifted from the
top of the ladder to the cornice Of the
roof. He pulled himself up until he
succeeded in gaining foothold. He
then reached down and assisted others
In getting on the top Of the building.
In this manner enough firemen reached
the roof to pull UP a line of hose. It
required half an hour to accomplish
this. Water was soon turned on the
fire. There is a fire escape on the
north side of the building and line of
hose was carried up this. The escape
does not reach to the roof and it was
Of little Use to the department.
DEPARTMENT CRITICISED.
The department. was severely criti-
cised by the crowd. 1t was claimed
that it was very slow in getting to
work on the fire. While this is true it
could not have been avoided under
the circumstances. The department
has no equipment to make a fight
against such fire as that Of Tues
day night. The little ladders looked
like playthings when placed at the
side of the high elevator. 1t is a won
der that line Of hose was carried to
the roof as soon as 1t was. Had II
not been for the splendid private eq-
uipment of the Cereal company the
mills would be in ruins today.
FILLED WITH GRAIN.
The elevator was filed with 10000
buchels of grain, wheat, corn and
barley. This had been stored in antic-
ipation Of the brisk fall demand for
cereals. A large per cent of this was
destroyed by the water which was
poured into the structure.
MR.. ANDREWS STATEMENT.
Mr.. j. H. Andrews, general superin-
tendent of the Akron mills of the
American Cereal company, made
statement to the Democrat Wednesday
morning. He said: "It was about

other officers and many delegates new

delaying the program, much to the
discomfort and disgust of those inter-

The majority of the delegates prac-

The local committees were led to be-

Akron is, as Mr.. P. u. Werner said in
his address not equipped for holding
big conventions, by reason of it's hav-

people expected too much. Neverthe-

The immense mills of the American
Cereal company narrowly escaped de-
struction Tuesday night. At 1o:35 FIRE,
was discovered In the grain elevator
Immediately under the roof.
An alarm was turned In and the
departments from stations i. 2 and A
responded. 1t was more than half an
hour after this before a steamer line
was brought into use. This was not
the fault of the men employed by the
city to fight fires but the result of the
antiquated equipment.
SOUNDED THE ALARM.
Automatic sprinklers are located
throughout the mill. These are so ar
ranged that as soon as one begins to
work gong is sounded in the engine
room. 1t was in this manner that the
fire was discovered. 1t WAS some time
before the fire could be located. At
first nothing was visible. At 10:45
a small blaze began to creep out of one
of the top windows of the lofty struc-
ture. This rapidly increased in size
until the flames were famed into rag
ing FIRE. All this time the people stood
and watched the futile efforts of the
firemen, who were unable to reach
the fire. At 11:i2 the FIRST steamer
hose was brought into play.
UNDER CONTROL
At that hour it looked as though the
structure was doomed The fire had
gained great headway and the flames
were leaping high in the air. For
tunately the flames were confined to
the upper portion of the structure.
The lower floors were being flooded
by streams from the company's auto
matte pumps. There was great danger
of the fire spreading to the oat eleva-
tor Immediately north of the burning
structure. A tran-way connected the
two buildings near the top. This was
quickly closed by employees Of the
company who knew the mills better
than the fremen. At midnight the
fire was under control and at 2 o.
clock the fire department returned to
their respectives houses. 1t was for
tunate escape from the total destruc-
tion of the mills.
THRILLING FEATURES.
From a spectacular standpoint the
fire was one of the most thrilling ever
witnessed In this city. The fire was
rs. feet above the ground. In order
to bring the lines of hose within
distance it was necessary for
tba firemen to take some desperate |
RISKS. AS soon as possible a ladder
was placed on the awning In front Of
the elevator. A 35foot extension lad

CONSTANTINOPLE, Friday. Nov.

The visit of the battleshfp Kentucky
