1TARTED IN CHINESE LAUNDRY.
The Are started on Fark atreet, near
Hoyt. in a Chinese laundry, and quickly
their fate, kn the stable besidea this
horse were Maymont, Annie J., 9:19,
and a colt out of the. latter by old Zam
bro, and a .'bus horse. In. the stable was
also m green pacer belonging, to a
stranger., Jim Mlsner. had been training
him. Tom, Condon's loss, including
horses,. tralnin-;arWhrnes,ougglev
etc.. will not be much less than fJl.OOO,
without a rent of . inaurtthc. Mr.' '.Con
don had refused 00 for . Zambro CV
alone. .. ; ,
'SPREAD IN ALL - DIRECTIONS. ' i
From Condon's stable Jbe fire .spread to
every direction, and in a . few minutes
the entire block 'was ,' ablas. The
Wakeman A- Morse Company put In be
tween 25 and 30 tons . of . loose bay last
Friday, and when the , Are .'reached this
there was no stopping It, Condon had
also. a goodly supply of hay-and straw
on hand which helped to feed the flames.
In conversation with a Journal re
porter after the Are was under control,
Mr. Morse, of the Wakeman -ft Morse
Company said: ?T "".',
WAKEMAN MORSE' LOS8.
"It Is pretty bard lot. me to say at this
time just what our -loseS le.,' I should
say, however, that -It its Jo- tha neigh
borhood of $l2,0W..!,re .did .not own the
building. That was tha - property of tne
City "4 Suburban , Company. . We 'had
38 horses In the building , when . the fire
started, and I can' only account for 27
of them at this time. Our men tell me
of several they stir )erlsh In the flames
while ' others ; are said , to .. be running
loose in the streets. The saved one
are .'quartered at; different ' atablea ' for

ance as I left all th,at to my partner,
Mr. Wakemish.' : v.. .-.; ,vvi. .t
The latter, upon being consulted, said
that his Insurance amounted to 4 bout
$7ooo. . . -"',iv;if.wi ,'
N... P.'S NARROW ESCAPE.
While the Are - wis ' conflned to.
on the north side of 'Hoy t. street, had a
narrow escape. When the fire waa at
Its height the upper portion of the build
ings front (oolc flre but the' flames were
quickly extinguished. " , :, , ,
On the south' side' of QllaaiiL street' the
Harlow rooming house-Will have to re
plenish Its window pa at aa they were
nearly all, destroyed by . te heat For
blocks 'around people moVea their furni
ture Into the street, fearing that the fire
would spread, but by 2:30 O'clock nearly
all had re-established themselves.
There was great excitement in the
Park lodging house 'when "the ' fire first
started.. There were about M people m
the place at the time, and It waa sur
rounded by flames when Mrs. Haskins,
the landlady, started- to awaken her
roomers. Some had to be virtually car
ried to the street in their, night clothes.
The exit vwas so.' hurried that nearly,
every one lost everything they possessed,''
Mrs. Haskins lost everything except the
clothes she wore. She'-stood calmly by
and, saw her furniture go tip In smoke.
The police, many of whom were day
watchmen, who got out of their beds
to help those' on duty(' preserved order,
maintaining It excellently. Many thou
sands of people surrounded the burn
ing block but till were kept outside the
fire lines. . ; ... 4 .v.w.:., ..

Many of the losers 'by the flre can not
L be . focatett toaay, but it is safe to sa;
that the following, figures will show- uie
approxtnit.;.loset;r ; -', - '" ' '
The VVakeman ik -Moras Transfer Com
pany! lose about Illt.000 with an Insurance
of rabottf- Vt.QMi M
Thomas D. Condon Iowa fully 111.009 on
his racing stable, and his race track
trappings. ' ' . ' ; ' - "
The City ft Burburban Company, which
owned the building ' occupied by the
Wakeman 4 Morse Company, Is unable
to estimate lU loaa, ' 1
"We had a lot Of material stored In the
building," said sin olflcer or the road to
day, "and, as we' understand there " are
several fet Of Water underneath, prob
ably' a let of H is aaved by dropping
through' the burning , floors. Of course
this slocly problematical, but we do not
know. The Pacific- Improvement Com
pany also . had considerable property
stored In the building, but we can npt say
what their loss- is as yet.
The" Eaty estate, wlUph owns the Park
ttreet aide 'of the block, eatlmates Its loss
at about 15,000, fully insured. ' - ; '
Ktthle Bros., who are the successors of
Frank Thuhander in the carriage repair
and manufacturing business, lose about
12,600. No insurance. ?
Louthit ft Malarkey,. blacksmiths, get
off with a loss of a.bout J300; no Insur
ance. , v..;
. The Northlrtet ''Baking Company, whteii
iokt Its entirtj Iplaht;' can put In another
for less than S,000,f- , .,
The Junk dealer on the corner of .Park
and CliaaTi, lost hia all, but it was not
very much. About, 1300 will cover the
real value of. the stock and fixtures. ,
In the- Chinese laundry was probably
HOO worth of washing, but the loss to the
proprietor Will mot exceed 175.
It Hill not cost ' to exceed JIM to repair
the' f ronto the "Northern Pacific freight
sheds and replace the windows.
The actual loss Is about $31,300 with in
surance of about 13 per cent.
man ft Morse "Company, was the only
one -Injured during' tho' fire, to any ex
tent He had rooms over the stable -and
waa not awakened until the structure
was' In flames. 'Then he had to run for
bis life througi tha flre to a window and
jump to the sidewalk, a distance of fully
15 feet. . , , ',.,," .
Burns was seriously burned about the
face, 'neck and hands).,' Bystanders picked
htm up and he was sent to St. Vincent's
hospital in the police patrol wagon, where
he is getting along nicely.
Edward Smith, a young man who was
anxious .to get close to the fire, collided
with hose wagon, on Glisan street. He
was knocked down but not hurt to any
extent. . . '
NOTES OF THE FIRBJ. ,
The awning; of a cigar store on Seventh
and Ojlaan , Streets caught on flre from
the large cinders and cauBed some ex
citement. The Blase was about -to
connect with the building when a crowd
of bystanders , tore It from its fasten
ing. - --
While th front ef the N. W. bakery
was s. mass of flames a large section of
the side of the building fell, and it was
thought for a short time that several
ot ut firemen were badly wounded, as 1
they had been working underneath the
burning structural . No one waa Injured,
however. ..-
