Destine, ive Fire In Port and.

Fire at the Albina terminal grounds yes
terday destroyed tbe Paoifio coist wheat
elevator, warehouse and contents, the rail,
road cosl-bankcre and contents, a vast
stretch of whsrves, 60 or more freight crt
and wbeat contents, a numbor of cart con.
taining a part of the great plant of the
Portland General Electrio Company, about
four miles of railroad trackage, and the
river steamer WillanwUe Chief. The con
flagration consumed in round numbers f 1,-
000,000 worth of property, though it it not
possible at this time to give accurate esti
mates. It was pretty fully covered by in
surance. The fire department could do
little or nothing to ttay the progress of the
flames, and they completely devoured every
thing in tbeir path, and subsided only from
laok of material. It is iuppsed that three
Uvea of workmen at the eleyator were lost.
The origin of the conflagration it not " defi
nitely known. Tbe disaster wat altogether
the most serious tht hat visited Portland
tinoe the great fire of 1S72
The fire was discovered at 4:!tQ o'clock
in the afternoon in the Oregon Railway 4
Navigation Company 'a ooal banker on tba
Albina Water front. It quickly consumed
the structure and itt contents, and spread
south along the river, and in test than two
hours had deatroyed three-quarters of a
mile of water front docks and warehouses,
including tbe greU Pacitio Coast elevator
and the large Terminal Company warehouse.
In addition to the bailJings, tracks, trestles.
doskt and freight cart were deatroyed, Thit
with freight stored for shipment in tht
warehouses, grain in the elevator, eoal in
the bankers, and part of an immense plant
for the Portland General Eleotrio Com
pany standing on oars in he yard, wat to
tally destroyed, and tbe lost aggregate
an immense sum of money, impossible at
thit time to estimate aconrately. Although
largely covered by insarance. the loia it
the heaviest tnttained in Portland for
years.
There it at thit time also tuppoied to
have been loss of life. Three men named
Andersen, Murray and Brown, workmen
at the elevator, were teen 01 the roof early '
in the fire; they were not seen afterwards,
and are thought to have perished.
The property destroyed wat constructed
almost entirely of wood, and wat 'built on ,
piling over tbe water. The river fl iws al
most north at that point, ani the tire
started at the most northern point of the
burnt district.- A ttriff breeze wst blowing
from the east at tbe time, and fanned' the
flames with great foroj in tbeir progress to
the toutb. The Simea wjre linked under
tbe buildings and covered trestles and eoo
tinned unhindered both above and below,
