FIRE SWEEPS OVER BLOCK
Five Mules Are cremated in Disas-
trous New Orleans Blaze.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
New Enthusiastically an entire
block of frame buildings, in the square
bounded by South Rampant, Saratoga,
Erato and Thalia, was destroyed by
fire, and five mules, the property of
Hoilander Sons, were cremated in the
fierce blaze which had it's origin in
the stables of the firm at No. 1907
South Rampant.
How the fire originated is a mystery,
but it is not believed to have been
incendiarism. The stamping of a trot-
ting horse gave the alarm. The heat
and smoke caused the animal uneasi.
ness, and he plunged around his stall
until he aroused Miss Alice Mosley,
who keeps q rooming house adjoining.
The roomers in the house were awak-
ened and sought safety in flight, some
OF them not even taking time to don
their clothes.
The fire vas confined to the square
in which it originated, although some
dwellings on the opposite side of Sara
toga, to which the fire penetrated,
were scorched and damaged.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
New Orleans.-The extension of the
Old Basin Canal from its present ter.
minus at Rampant street to the levee,
where it would enter the Mississippi
river by means of a powerful lock and
dam. is a project now in the mind
of the present state administration.
Governor Luther E. Hall held con.
ferences with local officials at which
this big project was considered at
length. It. was regarded as a man.
moth commercial enterprise il the riv-
er transportation could be linked with
that of the basins and the lake to the
rear Of the city without the long
route via Lake Borgne.
"The matter has been considered"
said Governor Hall. "But Of course,
the state can do nothing until the case
of the Carondolet canal gets out of
the courts. After that this proposition
may be taken up seriously. l am con
yinced that it might be made a splen-
did commercial advantage to the city
of New Orleans"
