Peoria, Ills. June Am explosion
which occurred in the eleven story
warehouse of the Corning Distillery,
the second largest in the world, this
afternoon, completely wrecked the
building. The ruins Immediately took
fire and communicated to three adj
joining buildings burning them to the
ground. Ten men We're buried be-
meath the ruins and burned to death,
and six others were seriously injured.
The loss on the buildings and whiskey
and spilits stored will approximate
81, 1,000,0 600. The fire spread to the
stock yards district, where a dozen
large cattle barns, filled with cattle
for market were burned.
The dead:

Louis Sax.
William Finley, Jr.

Nj. CrowI.

The cause of the explosion cannot
yet be determined.
The widest excitement prevailed
after the explosion, the immense plant
was surrounded by thousands of peo-
pie, who, however, were unable to
get close to the structure on account
of the intense heat.
The warehouse containing in the
neighborhood of 10000 barrels of
whiskey- was instantaneously a seeth-
ing caldron, and it was seen that no
one inside the big structure could
escape. The warehouse, in crushing
the smaller structure nearby set it
on fire, and the whiskey from the
burning barrels flooded everything in
that section. Large streams ran
down grade toward the river, and in
q short time there was a foot of
whiskey in the cattle pens east of the
warehouse, where 5000 steers were
chained fast. Their distress lasted
but q few moments, however, for they
We're soon roasted to death or suffo-
cataG.
They were the property of Dood
and Krafer, of Chicago. 1t is impos-
sible to compute their loss, but it will
amount to thousands of dollars.
The fermenting houses were speed
lily food for the flames. They are
two structures of good dimensions
and both of them were practically
destroyed.
The firemen got near the fire with
difficulty, and the water had little or
no effect. A high wind was blowing
and tanning the flames in the direc-
ton of the monarch distillery, and
for n time it was feared that the fire
would sweep along the entire river
bank. However, the heroic work of
the firemen began to tell and at seven
O'Clock the fire seemed under control
with no likelihood of further spread.
