To the east of Broadway the houses
were close together and averaged about
two and a half stories In height.
Two large oil barges tied up at the
wharf Of tbs Tidewater OIL company
and which contained 5000 gallons Of
oil each were burned, and for time II
was feared they would drift across the
Chelsea creek and ignite the Standard
Oil plant on the East Boston side. Two
tugs made desperate efforts to tow the
barges into the harbor, but the hawsers
were charred, and before the barges
could be removed they were burned.
Lieutenant Governor on Scene.
Lieutenant Governor Eben s. Draper,
who is at the head Of the senate during
the illness of Governor Curtis Guild,
Jr., was within the fire lines all day
directing the work of the militia and
aiding In the removal of the homeless
to places Of shelter.
Mayor George A. Hubbard of Boston
at 5 o'clock last night called meet

subscriptions for the homeless. The
Intertrust company of Boston told
Mayor Hubbard to draw on it for ST.

been raised
The Suburban Gas and Electric COM
pany Of the town of Revere, which ad-
joins Chelsea, housed 200 fire sufferers
and provided them with food.
The scenes during the fire were pa
thetic and dramatic. No one knew
where the fire would spring up next.
Householders piling up their goods out
Of doors occasionally found mattress
in flames In the middle of the street
All the firemen were In the center of
the city, and half mile square of the
residential section was In flames, with
no protection available Or possible
Men, women and children ran around
the streets begging some one to call
the firemen, and there were no fremen
to respond. All the money men pos
sessed was offered teamsters to cart
away household goods, but there were
few teams to be had.
Many OF the women were In great
terror at the roaring Of the flames and
the shouts of the firemen in the smoke
which enyeloped the city. Children in
great numbers became lost from their
parents.
Children and Women Seek Shelter.
Children who were apparently alone
laid down here and there on a mat
tress or quilt and cried themselves to
sleep. Mothers with babes in their
arms looking for shelter from the
binding smoke and flying cinders ran
to parks.
All the patients of the Frost hospital,
which was directly in the path OF the
fire when the blaze began to spread,
were moved in ambulances to the Ma
rine hospital.
Owners of automobiles who raced
their machines to Chelsea to see the
confiagration were impressed by the
firemen and police to carry injured per-
sons to medical aid.
Physicians from Boston went to as
sist local practitioners.

Ridder has seen fit to accept the re-
sponsibilities of the treasurcrShip. He
Us 4 very high type Of the American

tions and connections will not bring
him under charge of suspicion Of

Chicago within a few days to take up
the work at headquarters.
Mr.. Riddcr was seen at the Hoff-
man house tonight and said:

of treasurer, and I accepted, for the
reason that l favor tariff reform, and

in the success Of Bryan and the De-
