Loss on Buildings Alone Is $750,000. RAWHIDE. Nev.. Sept. 4. A fire that started thl morning at 9:30 in Dr. Gar tier's office, a veritable flretrap, spread frith lightning-like rapidity and. despite the vigorous efforts of the fire depart ment and BOO miner volunteers, eight blocks, comprising all the business sec tion of the town, were a mass of flames. The fire-fighter soon discovered their ef forts were of no avail against the fire, so they began dynamiting adjarent build ings. Over a ton and a half of dynamite ' mas used. At 11 o'clock the total area was a mass of ashes and smoldering em bers. Dynamite Spreads Flames. Among the first buildings to go was Collins' hardware store, which contained two tons of dynamite, that exploded with terriflce force, hurling burning planks and boards a great distance and setting fire to numerous buildings simultaneously. This catastrophe led the firemen to fight the flames with dynamite, which prompt action saved the outlying portions of the town. A strong wind was blowing, which swept the flames southward across Rawhide avenue and east across Nevada street. The buildings destroyed will alone re sult in a financial loos of ITSO.ono. with no Insurance. The contents of the build ings are a complete loss and will swell the total to considerably more. Many people were slightly Injured by flying debris, but none are reported seriously hurt. Many acts of heroism were enacted and. were It not for the cool-headed ones among the anxious fire-fighters, several fatalities would have resulted. Frenaled men, whose fortunes were going up in flame, rushed madly forward in their at tempts to save their belongings, and would have perished had not restraining bands detained them. "Have Money, but 'o Grub." A famine was feared, as all the supply houses and grocery stores were wiped ut. Dispatches sent to Reno said: "We have lots of money, but no grub." Acting on these messages, a subscrip tion list was started and in a few min utes over J5000 was raised and a relief train started from Reno at 4 o'clock. :ontaining thousands of pounds of food and bedding. The train will arrive in a few hours and relieve the seriousness of the situation. All the mining towns of the state came to the assistance of the Rawhide sufferers with cash contribu tions. The San Francisco Mining Ex change at once sent a contribution of A partial list of the heaviest losers fol lows: First Bank of Rawhide, Bank of Rawhide. Press-Times building. Mlxpah Mercantile Company. Nevada Meat Mar ket, the Northern (Tex Rickard's). E. E. Mix & Co.. Nevada Club, Downer Hotel. Kelly's dancehall. The losses on the above aggregate over J100.000. The fire destroyed the hoisting works of the Bluff Mining Company. Gilitt Hi?l properties on the Grutt boys' business offce, the loss amounting to 110.000. which is the extent of the damage done to the mining properties. One of the first telegrams sent out was an order for lumber for the construction t hutMinir. an1 ulnm were welt un der way for a reconstruction of the town before the ashes were thoroughly cool. Rawhide is a typical mining town, and up to two years ago had a population of about 8000. Since the excitement of first discoveries abated, however, the popu lation has rapidly decreased, and there are now probably 9000 people In the camp. The buildings are mostly small and scat tered, though there are a few substan tial structures. Among these were the Rawhide Hotel, Hotel Dormon, the Bank of Rawhide, the Moss building and Tex Rickard's building. TOXOPAH PROMPT "WITH AID Rushes Supplies to Rawhide by Train and Automobile.
