Utah CITY GONE
.o,Is MINING CAMP PRACTlC-
f' ALLY DESTROYED
BY a Fire THAT started From an E1-
,,s;on--FIames Spread So Rap
idly That People Had TO Flee for
r,eir Lives and Little Property
Was saved.

calf Lake, June 26.-Mercur. the
aat cvanide gold camp, and the second
g,.rest mining town in Utah, was prac-
',ellv wiped out of existence by fire.
w. H." orioin of the fire remains a mys-
. l beyond the fact that it began with
EXPLOSION of some kind about 9 in
.be morning, in the upper story of the
proble block. Not less than 40 or so
l.oros have been completely Destroyed,
and there is not single store left in
+be camp. The people are in desti-
,nte and pitiable condition. At least
OoO are without food and shelter.
Gov Wells and Mayor Thompson, of
Salt Lake, were appealed to for inn
mediate assistance.
Fully 50 per cent. of the town has
baen DESTROYED. Not one business house
remains, and scores upon scores of dwell
mos have been completely destroyed.
All available vehicles of every descrip-
ton we're pressed into service, and every
effort made to save household goods and
stores. but so rapidly did the flames
spread that the people were forced to
aee for their lives and practically moth
ing was saved.
Conservative estimates place the
total loss at between $500, 900 and ST.
600 900, and the insurance at $3.50 900.
The Mormon and Methodist churches
were not damaged, and have been con-
verted into places of refuge for the most
helpless and destitute of the women and
children
GOV. Wells, Mayor Thompson, of Salt
Lake; Oregon Short Line officials and a
number of prominent Salt Lake citizens
arranged for special train, with need
ed supplies, which left Salt Lake early
in the evening for the stricken town.
Mercur is the western terminus of the
Salt Lake d Mercur railroad, situated
So miles southwest of Salt Lake City.
In the old days it was silver camp.
Finally it was abandoned, and remained
in deserted state until the cyanide
process of extracting gold from low
grade ore was given to the world.
Then Mercur became lively camp and
finally was incorporated in 1895. 1t is
famous as the home of the noted Mer-
cur and Golden Gate mines.
