NEW YORK, Dec. 20.--The Delaware
Lackawanna e Western railroad, which
a few months ago suffered the loss of
it's Hoooken terminal buildings by fire
sustained a still heavier loss today
when the new ferry terminals of stee
frame and supposedly fireproof con-
struction at the foot of West Twenty
third street, Manhattan, were burned to
the ground.
The loss Is estimated at more thar
half million dollars. A careful searcl,
up to late hour tonight failed to show
any lives lost.
Several employees of the railroads
were severely burned and five mer
were reported missing after the fire was
under contral.
The new ferry houses of the Del
aware, Lackawana &c Western and OF
the Jersey Central railroads were al
most total losses.
Buildings Just Completed
They were the newest ferry ter
minals in the city, the Lackawanna
building still undergoing its finishing
touches, and the Jersey Central having
been completed only two months ago
The terminals Of the Erie railroad and
the Pennsylvania were in such danger
for time that the fire department con-
| centrated almost it's entire efforts or
saving them. One small freight shed
belonging to the Erie and part of its
| docks were damaged.
| The fire started in the paint shop in
| the Lackawanna building, presumably
from a defective electric wire. A ferry
boat was just discharging 500 passen-
gers into the streets when smoke
flames and explosions burst from the
paint shop nearby. SO rapidly did the
flames spread that when the fire depart
ment had got to work the intense heat
was already melting the copper sheath
ing on the walls of the building.
