through them with irresistible fury.
Streams from dozens of lines of hose
apparently had not the slightest effect
upon the flames, which continued to
eat their way through the doomed
structures.
Origin of Blaze.
Investigation shows that the fire
originated in the basement of the
Rochester Dry Goods Company. About
4:45 O'Clock there was an explosion that
almost wrecked the building and those
adjoining. and this was followed by
the appearance of cloud of smoke and
a sheet of flame that burst through the
roof Of the building
Half an hour later II WAS evident that
the Beadle & Sherburne Company's
store was doomed. and the books and
records were removed to a place of
safety.
Fire Wall Effective.
The BeadIe & Sherburne store occu-
pied five buildings east of the ROcdes-
ter Dry Goods Company's store These
buildings were owned by the Helen
Cornwall estate: Alice F. Burton, J. b.
Cornwall estate. the EIlwanger & Barry
Real Estate Company. and the estate
only parts OF the walls remaining
standing.
A fire wall separating the Sibley. Lind
say & Curr Company's wholesale build
ing from the seven-story Cox Build
ing north, and extending to Mortimer
Street. temporarily stopped the spread
of the flames in that direction.
Driven From Homes.
When the walls of the Sibley build
ing fell north they crushed In several
small houses in Mortimer Street. The
occupants Of these houses had been
taken from their homes by the police
as soon as the extent OF the fire was
realized.
Shortly after the north wall went
down the west wall went into St. Paul
Street This was followed by the explo-
sion of the boilers. which shot the flames
into the granite building. Up the rear
elevator shaft the flames mounted to
the twelfth story of the granite build
ing-a height to which the fremen were
unable 10 attain. This building was
regarded as the finest office building In
the city, and was considered absolutely
fireproof. So fierce was the fire in the
heart Of this building that at O'Clock
the front wall bulged perceptibly. and
the rear wall, where the first fire ap-
peared, was also becoming dangerous.
Marble Block Falls.
At 8 o'clock the front wall of the five
story marble block fell, going into Main
Street. No one was hurt. The falling
walls made the work OF the firemen
doubly hazardous. and Mayor Cutler at
9 o'clock ordered them back from the
immediate vicinity Of the burning build
ings.
At $40 o'clock several companies were
ordered to the roof of the Burke, Fitz-
simmons, Hone Company's department
store. on the northeast corner OF Main
and st. Paul Streets. This is a six-story
building. While directing operations
here Assistant Chief Jaynes was thrown
to the sidewalk and rendered uncon-
scious. He was removed TO the Hahne-
mann Hospital.
At 1918 the fire was practically under

SWEPT
BY A GREAT FIRE
Seven Million Dolars Damage to Business Section
Before Flames Are Gotten Under Control
BaItimore'S Experience Averted

ROCHESTER. y. Y. Feb. 26.-Ro-
chester's business section was threat
ened with destruction by a fire which
broke out in the heart Of the dry goods
district at 5 o'clock this morning. The
fire was gotten under control at 1915
O'Clock. and the loss is estimated at
about 100000.
The fire started IN the central eleva-
tor shaft OF the Rochester Dry Goods
Company. at 156 Main Street east. Ten
minutes after the alarm had been sound
cd the six-story building was ablaze
from cellar to roof. and the walls had
begun to bulge.
Flames Spread Rapidly.
In less than half an hour the rear
wall Of the building went into Division
Street. and the flames then spread to
the seven-story "freproof' building OF
the Sibley. Lindsay & Curr Company.
in Division Street
The walls began to go down I'm the
wholesale building district shortly be-
fore 6 o'clock. and at I o'clock. Chief
Little announced that the local depart
ment could not stop the fire Buffalo
and Syracuse were at once applied 20
for assistance. and started special trains
for this city with fire apparatus.
Series of Explosions.
At $50 O'Clock the fire had practically
made a clean sweep of the seven-story
wholesale building of the SibIey. Lind
say & Curr Company. At O'Clock
there was a series of explosions. which
was followed by the breaking out of
the flames in the twelve-story building,
corner ST. Paul and Main Streets. east.

Sibley. Lindsay & Curr Company oc-
cupies the lower floors with its retail
quarters. while the ten upper floors have

Half an hour after the fire had en-
tered this building it was breaking out
Of the windows on the twelfth floor.
Guests in the Eggleston and Whitcomb
Hotels I'm Main Street were called from
their rooms soon after the fire started
The Heat Terrific.
At o'clock. half square had been
burned over, causing loss estimated
at S7,O00.000. and the fire was still spread
ing. The Buffalo and Syracuse com
panies arrived just before O'Clock. At
Sis o'clock 1t seemed as though the FIRE
would cross the south side of Main
Street cast. and windows in the stores
on the south side of the street began to
crack under the terrific heat.
Breaking out as fl did shortly before
people were starting for work, the fire
attracted an immense crowd and the en-
tire night police force was called TO as
sist in holding the crowd in check. En-
ployes Of the various concerns, whose
places Of business were destroyed. were
among the earliest arrivals and were
pressed irto service to assist in removing
the contents of the stores.
Water Has No Effect.
In the Sibley. Lindsay & Curr store
there are over 1000 persons employed,
while in the other establishments there
are employed some 1900 more. The
total number of persons directly affected
by the FIRE will number some 1900.

Rolling up the largest majority ever
recorded for a political party in the
history of the county, Wapello Tuesday
took front place in the ranks of the
Roosevelt enthusiasts and gave to the
President total according to unoffl
cial figures of 4,S95 and a plurality of
2,405. Wapello also proved more than
true to the party whose officials have
served her as county officers so well
during the past two years and returned
their successors to Office with plurali-
ties while not quite equaling that of
the President, so generous in proper
tions as to mean nothing short of rout
to their opponents.
Adams Alone True.
30 great was the political upheaval
which might more properly be termed
a somersault, that even rock ribbed
democratic precincts which never in
their history could have been declared
to be doubtful, gave big maiorities to
the republican ticket. Adams alone
remained true to her trust bequeathed
through long line of antecedent cleo
lions and gave to Alton B Parker
plurality of ten. Dahlonega made
desperate effort to remain true but the
best she could do for the democratic
ticket was seventeen in favor of Roose-
welt.
How Deed Was Done.
How the whole thing was accom-
plished can only be learned by care
full perusal of the vote by precincts.
The following tables in connection
with those published in the issue of
the Courier of last evening will give
the unofficial report of the vote in
every precinct in the county.
