The buildings were a part of the BLOCK
bounded by Jefferson avenue and Smell

are a total loss, which is at
$I52. 600 exclusive of the loss on tue
buildings. which amounts 70 S5o,5o9.
The buildings joined each other at the
corner of Jefferson avenue and Shelby
street. No one seems to know what
caused the collapse of the buildings. On
Sunday night that district is practical
" deserted and the few who were In
the vicinity say that the buildings
seemed to fall into a heap without ap-
parent cause, making a noise like the
rumbling OF distant thunder. There
are evidences of an explosion about the
ruins, but no one heard a sound or
such an explosion. The II OF the

loss of life would hav been appalling,
as there are approximately 200 persons

buildings collapsed into q heap and in
a short space of time the infiammable
material caught fire from the Furnaces

were no ~watchmen about the premises.
consequently there will be no loss of
life. No one was injured nor is there
any one who can give a definite reason
for the catastrophe.
