TWO MILLION FIRE
AT FALL RIVER
Retail Stores, Hotel and Many Other
Large Buildings in Business
District Destroyed.
NONE KILLED OR INJURED

FALL RIVER, Mass, Feb. L.
Estimates made by owners of prop
erty and proprietors of stores in the
section OF the business district
swept by fire early today, indicated
that the total loss would be approx
imately $2,OOO,0OO. A score of build
ings, including an apartment hotel
and several OF the largest retail
stores in the city, were destroyed
and many others we're badly dam
aged. There was no loss of life and
nc one was injured.
Police and firemen early in the
day were unable to put forward any
theory as to the probable origin of
the fire. It started in the basement
of a four-story brick building at the
corner of South Main and Spring
streets, occupied by the department
store of the Steiger company.
The night Waterman In this store. Mich
ael ORourke, said today that when he
made his last rounds shortly before mid
night he saw no sign cf fire few min
utes later. when he wss on an upper floor,
he heard noise which sounded like
slight explosion. He hurried downstairs
and found the basement filled with smoke
BIg store Goes Quickly.
When the fire apparatus arrived the
steiger building was ablsze. Within a
few minutes the fire had spread to adj
Joining buildings across South Main street.
Help was then called from New Bedford.
Taunton and Newport, r. I.
Before the out-of-town engines arrived
the flames had made such a start that II
was impossible TO stop their progress
southwark along South Main street until
they had reached Columbia street. There
the Edward building, with a double fire
wall. served as an effective check. and
by flooding the building and adjoining
property the firemen got control of the
conflsgration.
At the north end Of the burning dis
trict n water curtain on the department
store of r. A. McWhirr & Co. prevented
a further spread. The granite walls OF
st. Mary's cathedral protected a residen-
tial district nearby.
Guests Driven from Hotel.
The I.enox hotel diegonally across the
/, street from the Steiger store, was one OF
the first buildings TO suffer. The guests
were hastily reused and made their way
out by fire escapes ano doors in the rear.
The front OF the hotel was then I'm flames.
Throughout the progress of the fire
drug stores, restaurants and churches
were thrown open for the relief of fire
men. police and people driven from their
homes. The guests at the Lenox hotel
were given shelter In private residences.
The fire was the most disastrous in the
history of the city. The majority of the
structures burned were constructed oil
brick, three or four stories in height. The
heaviest individual loss was suffered by
the steiger company Members OF tn,
firm estimated it at 100000 on the build

PROMINENT MINNEAPOLIS
CITIZEN SUCcUMBS AFTER
A BRIEF ILLNESS
Simon J. McNulty, Resident Of Min
neapoIis for Thirty-two Years,
Died Thursday, Week Ago.

On Thursday evening. November Is,
Simon j. McNulty. at the age of G2
years, surrendered his soul to God, at
ter a brief illness of one week. He
was born in County Cavan, ireland,
where, when a young man, he was an
officer of the United Irish Land
League. and he came to this country
about "a years ago.
Mr.. McNulty came from a family
long distinguished for it's loyalty to
the freedom of Ireland, and constant
ly worked with that end in view.
He was man of profound faith, In
everything that transpired he saw the
will Of God. His was the faith of a
st. Peter, while his charity was that
of st. Francis. A soul of hospital
ity; he was never happier than wher
surrounded by his friends 1t seemed
as if his guests were comforting ia.
vor on him by allowing themselves to
be entertained. There is little danger
even in this fitful age that recollec-
ton of him will fade from the mem.
DRY of all who were privileged to know
him intimately. None knew his 10y
atty better than the many Irish organ
izations of this CITY, in which he was
prominent and factor. His whole
noble character untouched by the
faintest suggestion of sordidness forms
picture to which the Imagination will
cling.
Simon McNulty in the early history
of Minneapolis was a member of the
police force but for the past eighteen
years he was at the head of the Nc.
Nulty Detective Agency, and conduct.
ed that business successfully until his
death.
He was vice president of the Hen
nepin county board, Ancient Order OF
