Little Property Saved.

Among the families living along
East River street from Federal to
Mis- sissippi avenue and along Swift
Case and Sixth streets in the same
limits there was CONSERVATION and a
rush to save as much of the house
hold possessions as possible. In most
cases it was little indeed that was res
cued from the flames. aud so rapid
was the spread of the ire that hun
dreds of families barely escaped with
their lives.
Aged and infrm people in many
instances had to be carried many
blocks to places of safety, while the
seething flames pursued their heroic
rescuers. In q short time all the
streets for a mile around were the
repositories of the furniture and the
valuables of those who had just left
their homes in time to see them go
up in smoke with a quickness recall |
ing the burning of so much paper.
But while the inhabitants of the |
burning district were thus fleeing |
from the flames the firemen were PEN
as far as they could in the
hope of impeding the further progress
of the big blaze. 1t was out of the
question to do anything in the way
of extinguishing the flames where
they already existed and it was diff
cult enough to prevent its spread in
every direction.
Every member of the departments
Of the three cities was taking his life
10 his hands when he entered the
streets lined on each side with heaps
ot burning lumber and buildings
vi apped in flames. Spectators on
he bluff and in the elevated yards of
he Rock Island road watched these
brave men with feelings of admiration
II wondered at their devotion to
iuty.

Fire swept over an area of Is acres
in the east end OF Davenport last
night, entailing loss thst is estimat
ed at 100000. An alarm turned in
at O'Clock announced the beginning
of the conilagration, the most di-as-
trous in the history of the three
cities.
A blaze had started few minutes
before that time in the ratings on
the river bank portion of the Weyer-
erhauser & Denkmann lumber yard at
the foot of Federal street and between
East river street and the waters
edge.
Only momentarily were the flames
confined 20 this small area, however,
and a quarter of an hour later a sec
ond alarm sum moned the entire Dav-
export fire department to the scene
and caused urgent calls for immediate
help to be sent to Rock Island aud
Moline. Each city responded with
company, the Centrals going from
here with Chief Charles Hastings
These companies, like their Daven-
port fellows. fought desperately and
heroically. and to the laddies from
this side of the river is credited the
checking of the spread of the flames
over the entire east end of the city.
The key TO the situation was the
U. N. Roberts company sash aud
door plant. 1t WAS already burning
when the Centrals and Moline com
pany arrived. They set to work at
once to save the factory, realizing
that If it burned there would be no
stopping the onslaught of the fire in
the residence district ad Joining.

vide for amending the constitution
making that Inauguration day.

Not a few shrewd Observers are
becoming convinced that one OF the
important subjects that will hnve to
be taken mp by congress at the COM
ing session is that of tariff retalia-
tion. As the matter now stands,
except in the case Of two or three
specified articles and under specified
circumstances, this government has
no authority to resent the most fla
grant discrimination against Ameri-
can commerce through tariffs i'm
posed by foreign countries. Ger
many has Il new tariff and accord.
ing to the cabled accounts many of
it's schedules nre aimed at American
goods, but the administration can
not stSike back for lack of author
ity, although there are oppOrtuni-
ties in plenty. This country, of
course, does not wish TO put a tariff
chip on its shoulder for the purpose
of inviting n tariff war with any
other country, but it does need the
authority to show other nations
that American goods cannot be dis
criminated against with impunity
and congress should see that it gets
it. The mere fact of having it will
go far towards making it unneces-
sary to use it.
