FIRE AT ANTWERP
DOES $4,000, 900 DANCE

Antwerp, Sept 5.-A more disastrous firc
than that of Tuesday ravaged the timber
dock last evening. 1t originated undoubt-
edly among the riotous strikers. who had
previously set fire to bales OF cotton mat
tresses and timber which had been soak
ed with petroleum.
Six great sheds were soon ablaze. The
heat was so intense that nobody could
approach within 200 yards of the fire.
Enormous crowds gathered TO watch the
great column OF smoke and flames.
At 10 o'clock last night the flames were
raging furiousy. That time three steam
engines and five fire boats were pouring
streams OF water on the fire. Nine sheds
had been destroyed and the damage then
had amounted TO S2.0000o0.
The battalions OF infantry guard the dis
trict where the fire Is raging, but there
has been no rioting beyond continued at
tacks upon the imported English dock
workers. Two hundred Civic Guards are
on duty and an order forbidding assem-
blage OF crowds is being enforced.
