FIRE RAVAGES MONTREAL.
FIREMEN UNABLE TO COPE WITH THE
FLAMES-LOSS WILL BE IN
THE MILLIONS.

Montreal Jan 23-A big fire is raging in the
heart of the business district. Twenty firms
have already been burned out and the fire is
still spreading. The fire started at 500 o'clock
in the premises OF NJ. SAKE & Sons, wholesale
clothiers, at Lemoine and St Peter SITS The
streets in the locality were deserted at the time,
and the fire apparently had a good headway
before the first alarm was sent in. The fire
men found the building, a three story stone
structure solid mass of flames the fire having
apparently started in the basement and rushed
up the elevator shaft in the rear Of the store.
Second and third alarms were sent in immedl-
ately on the arrival of the division chief but
before the nearest reinforcements reached the
scene the flames had Ieaped across St Peter-st'
which is narrow at this point, and attacked the
big five story stone building occupied by H. A.
Nelson & Sons Company, fancy goods. Here 1t
spread as rapidly as il had in the SAKE build
ing In almost an instant il seemed as II the
entire building a roaring furnace.
The warehouse of BeardmOre q Co. tanners,
adjoining Nelson TO the SOUTH was next at
tackled, and from there the flames communi-
Gated to the establishment of Silverman, BOulter
& Co. wholesale hatters and furrers.
The firemen utterly unable to check the
flames The Board of Trade building is in ruins,
and the loss will be in the millions.
