Wa tells of the big fire there last night.
The local officials OF the Lagomarcino-

the four story Wholesale hardware
store of Harper & McIntire started to
burn at 7:45 o'clock. 1t was the hot
test blaze In this city for many years
and for time was beyond control Of
me firemen and Mayor Gordon tele-
graphed to Davenport and Burlington
for help. BY 1920, however the
flames were under control and out
side aid was not needed. The build
ing was completely destroyed and the
stock is total loss. BY heroic work
of the firemen the adjoining whole
sale fruit houses of the Lagomarcino-
Grippe Co and q. H. Emery g. Co.
were saved, the flames being confin.
ed to the one building. Harper & Nc.
Intire had received two carloads OF
ammunition today and when the
flames reached these the explosion
blew out the entire front wall of the
building which faces Commercial
street. Firemen and spectators, which
included practically the entire popula-
ton of Ottumwa, were imperiled by
the explosions of powder and cart
ridges, but no one was injured. The
loss is 100000.
The wrecked building is two and a
half blocks east of the Burlingn:
railroad station and is on the Bur
lington tracks. The stocks of score
of merchants in the same block were
damaged nv smoke and water.
