Hudson, Wis, June A. - At Z o'clock
yesterday morning fire broke out in the
railway car plant of the Chicago, st.
raul, Minneapolis & Omaha Railway
company and completely destroyed the
freight car building, together with all
ITS contents.
The loss is placed at 100000. and over
one hundred men will be thrown out
o1 work pending reconstruction. One
coach, four refrigerator cars and some
twenty-five freight cars were con.
cumed, together with much stock and
machinery. Many of the men owned
their own kits of tools, valued at from
S6O to 500 each, all of which were lost.

ance. They will probably rebuild at
once, as there are still six or eight
large buildings in the plant. Engines
were summoned from St. Paul to aid
