EAGLE BREWERY BURNED
DOWN AT GRANTS PASS.
Damage Between $1,000 and $s,ooo-Fir'
Starts in Boiler-room.

Grants Pass, Ore, Aug. 1.-THE brew
cry and ice plant of the Eagle Brewing
company of this city, which were COM
pleted but few months ago, were total.
ly destroyed by fire early yesterday
morning. Being beyond the fire limits
and out of reach of hydrants or fire
plugs, nothing could be done to check
the flames, and the large building and
entire plant were burned, entailing a
loss of between $4,000 and $1,000.
The fire is supposed to have originat-
ed in the bOiler.room of the plant. The
brewery and ice plant were in operation
as usual the day before, and at closing
time the fires in the furnace were smoth-
cred. but the flames are believed 10 have
been started by spark from the fur
mace. Within short time after the
first discovery of the fire the building
was enveloped in flames, and the ex-
ploding ammonia tanks, pipes and boiler
made it extremely dangerous to APP
proaeh the burning plant. The alarm
was sounded, and, though the brewery
was located across Rogue river, one mile
from town, several hundred people
rushed across the bridge to view the
fire. The explosion of the tanks threw
great chunks of burning timbers into
the crowd, but fortunately no one was
hurt. The owners are undecided as to
rebuilding the plant.
