TWENTY ARE INJURED
Many Other Firemen Narrowly
Escape Death at Chicago.
F0RTY-MlLE GALE BLOWING
Burning Embers Scattered for Blocks
in the Vicinity of the Confiaeration,
Endansering the Grand Pacific Ho-
tel and Other Big Structures.

tCt dHu StHCE Dig
Chicago, Jan. 2S.-More than score
of firemen were hurt and as many
more escaped injuries or death after
thrilling experiences in a fire which
destroyed the Mayer building, a seven
story brick building, and the Hotel
Florence. The loss, 1t is believed,
will amount to 100000.
Famed by forty-mile gale the fire
scattered burning embers about the
southern portion of the loop district,
endangering score of structures.
Twenty guests at the hotel, which was
four-story structure, were reused
from their beds by policemen and
f1remen All of the inmates are be-
lieved to have escaped.
Adjoining the burning structure on
the east is the partially completed six
teen-story building of the Corn Ex-
change National bank. The new sky
scraper was given a severe test, but
with the exception of some temporary
woodwork resisted the flames success
fully. Two members of the fire de-
partment were struck by boards
which fell from burning scaffolding
on the fifteenth floor of the bank
building and seriously injured.
The wind drove the flames directly
against the bank structure, which
formed complete barrier to the
spread of the fire. but at the same
time acted as chimney to carry
burning brands, sparks and embers
Hundreds of Feet Into the Air.
During the fire a cascade of sparks
poured upon the Rookery building and
upon the board of trade, Grand Pacific
hotel, Illinois Trust and Savings
bank, Western Union, Home Insur-
ance and other big structures. Some
of these buildings were erected so
long ago that their fireproof qualities
are matter of doubt and detachments
of firemen were sent out to keep
watch upon them.
The fire started in the rear of the
second story of the Hotel Florence.
Before they were discovered they
gained considerable headway and
shortly after the firemen arrived the
second and third floors and a portion
of the rear wall fell. A six-story build
ing adjoining the hotel on the west
caught fire and was partly gutted. 1t
was occupied by six printing and two
tailoring concerns, most of which suf-
fered heavy damage. In three of the
printing offices night shifts of en-
ployes were at work and these men
were driven to the street SO hurriedly
that many were forced to face the
blizzard clad In the sleeveless gar
ments of the stereotyping room. Many
of the guests of the hotel were also
scantily clad when they reached the
street. The refugees were cared for
by the police.
