Revenue Cutter Service

Reports of assistance rendered coasting

In demand at all seasons. They help
vessels in distress in the spring as well
as In winter. and are practically under
cruising orders throughout the year in

supplies aboard she will sail for the
cruising ground to relieve the Miami, SO
that she can go to Halifax for supplies.
Under this plan each vessel will have
about fifteen days cruising. while the
other is going to port taking on supplies
and returning to the cruising grounds.

the limits before checked. /. The wind is blowing in a south erly direction tonight and this ! fact is the only reason the dis trlct west of Central avenue in the middle of the city is not de- stroyed.
 Fire swept across the frieght and passenger yards of the Iron Mountain railroad at the end of Valley street, between Malvern and Central avenues, destroying both freight and passenger de- pots, cutting off railroads from all wire connections except that through the Western lines. The Iron Mountain estimates it's loss according to Superintendent C. l.. Mayne, who came here on the special from Little Rock, at a. bout S30,000. No equipment was burned. Three switch en- glnes were used to move rolling stock in the yards to the south ern end. Passenger trains are forced to stop three-quarters of a mile from the station site.
 The Rock Islands olss is believ- ed to be small despite the fact that the fire originated within a few blocks of it's depot. Wind car ried the fire north to the june tlon of Central and Ouachita avenues, coursing back south and west, the flames being carried a distance of more than block a. cross the wide yards of the Iron Mountain.
 Ouachita avenue, on which is located some of the largest con- mercial houses in the city, was gutted on the east side only for a distance of four blocks, when the flames jumped across the street, burning everything south and west of the new Lindell ho- tel.
 The court house, high school and negro school were de- stroyed. The government is in- terested in the baths destroyed with the Parke hotel, the aggre- gate loss of the latter being S500,000.
