SUTTON HAS STUBBORN FIRE
Hotel Burned, other Property Endan-
sered, and Hastings is Called
on for Help.

SUTTON, Neb., March 1.--(Special Tele-
gram. 1.-The most disastrous FIRE that has
visited Sutton in ten years wiped out the
fine three-story Oakland hotel here tonight.
The loss is estimated at $4,000. The prop
erty was partly insured.
The fire broke out at $3.50 o'clock In a
middle room on the third floor. The origin
of the fire Is unknown. The IRE department
was unable to handle the fire on account
OF the dense smoke and in consequence the
entire building was in flames before any
effective work could be accomplished. A
strong wind blew from the northwest and
carried the flames and sparks across the
street TO adjacent buildings. The fremen
were finally driven from the hotel and were
compelled to devote their work to guard
ing surrounding property.
The Hastings Ere department was tele-
graphed for at 1915 o'clock and thirty -four
of Hastings best fire fighters with Chief
Hammonds at their head took a special
train and arrived at 1o:sz, making tbs
thi-ty miles in thirty-fve minutes. In
less than fifteen minutes after the specia
train arrived the Hastings iremen had two
lines Of hose laid and were fighting tn,
flames. The Sutton volunteers did excel
lent work in protecting property.
Bert Lewis, one OF the Sutton hremen
was suffocated by smoke in the third stor,
Of the hotel and his life was barely saved
by the timely assistance. of Homer Gray
who followed the line Of hose and found Mr.
Lewis in a dazed condition.
Milton Hoagland, Hastings flremen, wa.
hit on the head by a falling brick and
deep cash several inches long was cut II
his head. Several other people were In
jured, but none seriously.
The hremen will be compelled to worl
all night, as the wind continues to blow
gale, and sparks from the ruins are beint

ing and was the pride of the town. Johl
