WATERBURY, DEVASTATED.
Property Worth over S3,O0O,OO0 De-
stroyea by Fire.

Property Worth Over $4,000, 900 De-
stroyed by Fire.
Several acres of business blocks
and property loss variously estimated
Mt from $3000,000 to $4,000,000 is the
fearful record of d confiagration which,
starting shortly after o'clock on Sun
day night, laid waste the business
heart of Waterbury, Conn.
The territory inclosed by Grand,
Leavenworth, South Main and Spring
streets is almost entirely mass of
ruins. On these blocks were the most
deliberately built and the most impor-
tant business concerns in the city, dry
goods houses, hotels, newspaper offices,
hardware, shoe, jewelry stores and
blocks Of modern fats. Hardly one OF
them has survived the fearful ordeal.
Here and there a narrow building
stands untouched, but all else is heap
ed on the water soaked ground, black
ened and charred and ,ndistinguisha-
BILE.
Around this devastated area stand
block upon block Of newly built apart
mcnt houses and stores, saved from
like ruin only by the heroic efforts of
the flremen.,
The fire started in gas explosion on
the second floor of the Reid & Hughes
department store in Bank street. A
forty mile gale was blowing from the
west. and before the firemen had mo-
ment's notice the flames swept across
Bank street and licked up as by magic
the tall office building on the other side.
The flames spread with remarkable
swiftness to the great business blocks
south and north, taking in the section
thickly built up, and in three hours a
score of landmarks were wiped from
the map.
Hurry calls for assistance were tele-
phoned to New Haven, Hartford
Bridgeport, Naugatuck and Torrington.
and by midnight special engine COM
panies from these cities were on hand
and fighting the flames shoulder to
shoulder with the Waterbury coinpa-
MES.
The firn was considered under con-
troll at 2:30 ii. Ill., but at 4 a. m. the IA
nous old Sccvil House caught fire, and
in an hour there was nothing left OF
this well equipped hotel except charred
and crmnbling walls. All Monday
morning the riremen fought to keep the
red hot enbers from spreading the
blaze, and 1t was only Monday after
noon that final assurance was given by
Chief Snagg that the danger was
past

The bride wore a princess dress Of

of orange blossoms. A wreath of the

This bouquet was modelled after the

She wore no jewels of any description,
