A Large Area of the City Of Davenport

Fire laid waste an area Of saWmill and
residence property in Davenport, Iowa,
Thursday evening equal to twenty ordinary
city blocks.
The flames started In big pile of kin
ding wood Of the Rock Island Fuel Com
pany, on the levee. A brisk breeze was
blowing, which carried the flames directly
across the immense lumber yards OF Wey
erhauser Denkmann, which was soon a
seething mass of flames. The spread of
the fire was SO rapid that workmen barely
had time to desert the yard. The flames
pushed their way into the adjoining resi-
dence district closely settled with middle
class homes, the average value being a
few thousand dollars each, from which the
occupants escaped only with their lives
and the clothing on their backs.
Over fifty homes were thus burned, some
of them tenements, resulting In 100 fami-
lies being rendered homeless. while others
deserted their homes in the threatened dis
trict. Efforts to check the flames were un-
avaiiing until they spread on the north to-
