-Four hundred years ago the entire
world produced and found use tor 60,00l
tons of iron annually; today it produces
and uses 100000 tons every year. a
growth so marvellous as to surpass belief

the United states gave to the world 10000
tons or iron, and it was exceeded among
iron producing countries by Great Britain

4O,COO tons, ueinS with Germany; then it
went forward at great leaps until 1870.
When. with an output of 10000 tons, il

UNABLE TO ESCAPE
THE FLAMING FLUID
Terrible Work Of an Incendiary

BURNED WITH NkPHTHA
BELIEVED THAT OVER 100 PEG
PIE persisted IN FLAMES.

Vancouver, b c, April "Details of
the terrible confiagration at Baku are
given as follows by the Japan Daily
Mail: Dispatches from Baku say that
all available hospitals are filed with
sufferers of the FIRE, while the sheds
on the fair grounds are crowded with
homeless people. The fire broke. out in
( the evening at meal time, and spread
so rapidly that many people were un-
able to escape from their homes. The
fire even cut off the retreat of the
spectators, thirty of whom persisted.
1t is believed that the conhagration
was started by a discharged employee
for the purpose of revenge. and it is
further reported that the naphtha res
ervoirs had been previously filled with
water, which, in overlooking, carried
the flaming fluid over the town, in
Volving scores of houses. The stream
of fire was several yards high. Num-
bers of people were seen attempting to
escape while their bodies burned like
torches. The total number of victims
is not ascertainable at present.
1t is announced that ten factories and
five depots were burned. containing al
together 35,000000 pools of naphtha
and naphtha refuse. 1t is estimated
that the losses viii exceed 5000. 600 rou-
bles.
Nine charred corpses have been re-
covered One hundred and sixty per-
sons were injured by burning, forty-one
of these severely, and six have sue
cumbed to their injuries. Many victims
are still under the ruins and the search
IS proceeding. 1t is not known how
many of the spectators persisted, but
100 persons are still missing.
