EXAGGERATED
Blaze Was Confined to the Hart

$4,000.
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Brainerd, Mimi, April 27.-Fire
dispatches from here last night were
grossly exaggerated and based upon
what was expected by a few excitable
persons to happen and not upon the
actual damage.
The fire was discovered in the
Hartley block in the heart of the city,
and for time the entire business por-
ton seemed doomed. The flames
spread rapidly thru the Hartley build
ing and threatened the Wise block on
the corner.
The fire started in the basement of
Slipp Bros hardware store, In the
Hartley block, and as there were oil
and refuse there the flames spread
rapidly. All the tenants Of the Hartley
block and Wise building were notified
and the work of saving the large
stocks in the latter building COM
menced at once.
The stocks Of r. F. Walters, boots
and shoes; c. L. Burnett, jewelry; M
K. Swartz, drugs, and others, were re-
| moved. These are being placed In
| original locations to-day and the loss
| in no case is heavy
| The stores burned in the, Hartley
block were owned by A. p. Moberg
dealer in dry goods, whose loss is esti'
mated at 100000, with insurance Of
$1,000, and by Slipp Bros, hardware
whose loss is in the neighborhood OF
$4,000 with insurance of $4,000
There were few minor losses. -
The Hartley block, three-stor5
brick building of seventy live fee
frontage was butted. It is owned by
George Harrison Of Minneapolis anc
valued at $4,000 and insured fol
$4,000.
The total loss will probably not ex
ceed $65, 900 against which there is in
surance of about one-half.
The fire was under control at
o'clock this morning.

MINNESOTA TOWN LEFT
WITHOUT WATER SUPPLY

Special to The Journal.
Fergus Falls, Mimi. April 27.-The
washing out of the Kirk dam yester-
day resulted in the shutting off of
the city's water supply to-day, the
intake pipe at the power station hav-
ing been buried in sediment washed
down during the night.
The situation is not a pleasant one,
particularly at the insane hospital,
with it's 1,400 patients.
There is no way of filing the pipes,
and if the situation continues, water
will have to be hauled in wagons.
Efforts are being made to cut the in

raised to-day.
