NO LIVES were LOST
The Structure Is Estimated to

Richmond, Va, March 30.-The JEFF
ferson hotel, the magnificent struc-
ture built and furnished by the late
Lewis Gintery at cost Of about ST.
100000, was destroyed by fire. No
lives were lost.
The hotel was constructed Of buff
brick and granite foundation and was
regarded as semi-fire proof. The
building covered about half a block
in the ultra-fashionable part Of the
city, fronting on West Main and
Franklin streets.
The flames broke out In the upper
part of ehMain street side, spread
with a tremendous rush, and soon
that part of the building was a seeth-
ing mass Of fire.
About o'clock this Saturday
morning the two towers of the build
ing were still standing, as also was
part of the Franklin street front, but
the latter is a wreck.

tendants then dashed through the
building, awakening the guests, many
of whom were sleeping and had to be
dragged out Of bed. Most OF the
guests on the Franklin street end Of
the hotel saved their baggage, AMI
finally the Jefferson statue was got

The guests in the part where the fire
started lost their baggage and many
OF them lost all their clothes.
Owing to the height of the building
the fire department was at a great
disadvantage. There were no thrill.

being numerous and wide.
Last night the other hotels and pri-

OF the Jefferson are crowded with the
burned out guests, some Of whom

The latest theory regarding the origin
OF the fire is that 1t started from cleo.

department, was painfully burned.
One of the guests had his leg broken,
He was removed to the Old Dominion
hospital.
The insurance was estimated a.
about $650,O00.
