II i a.lmlte . by nil that this Is by far the

occurred anywhere In the country during
recent years.
ORIGIN OF THE Imm.
The fire originated In the Hoyal MillIng
comn pany'R warehouse and spread to tIme ICen-
Ien-
yon & Conneli company's and
Connel buildings , from
there to the Butte hardware company's war -
hou se. , Nobody seems to know where the
pow der was stored that wrought the terrible
des truction ,
I I Is believed that over 100 were killed.
The buildIngs burned Include the warehouses
of the Buto I0rJware company , the Parchen.
la clmeul dug store the Kenyon & Council
Me rcantile company , the electrIc works , the
old Schlitz brewery building and a flour ali
feed warehouse. Time contents were entIrely
des troyed . The loss Is heavy , but not as
yet estImated. The Northern freight depot
wa completely ) ' wreckel , and six wood car
ha med.
At 9 : l5 ; o'clock the lire department re-
ape nded to a cal from box 73 , the cal of
leath for nearly every member of the dc-
par tmcmut. There was a runor that there
was powder In the buildIng . but this was I
denied , and otter a moment's hesItatIon thc I
fir emuen began fighting the nre. At 10:08 : the S
men had barely started to work when there S
was an explosion which shook Dute to Its I
very foundations. The powder In the Dute i
Harlware cOlpany's warehouse blew up ,
spreadIng death and ruin to all who were I
ne ar .
There were heroes among the spectators ,
ho wever . and as soon as the stun of the shock
hall 11aBset away and while some ran In terror -
robe r , others began to remove the mutilates ;
bodies of the firemen and the Injured from
the proximity of the names. All over the
city people began moving toward the fire all
the crowd had greatly increased within Ovo
minutes. Just about that length of tmo
afer the first explosion a second one , almost
equal In volume to the first , heightened the
terror all over the city ant spread death and
desolaton about the scene. In this explosion
scores of citizens were killed and Injured
Parts of bodies were hurled scores of feet
aw ay. A man near the Northern Pacifc
water tank was almost struck by the leg and
thIgh of a human being . driven by the force
of dynamIte from the fearful scene.
There were still heroes left to help pul
the shrieking wounded and groaning and
dying to a distance but the people up town
he sitated. . There had been two explosions and
there might bo more. There were rumors
of carloads or powder In the vIcinity beside 5
that stored In the warehouse. Five minutes
later a third explosion did come , but I was
a mid one anti It Is believed that very few ,
If al ) ' , were Injured In this.
LIKE A DATTL FILD.
I hat all occurred In fifteen minutes the
most horrible quarter of an hour In Butte ' s '
history. The awfulness of the scene aCer the
explosion was beyond description and words I I
could give no Idea of It. It presented more
the appearance of a battlefield than anything
el se. Tlie dead lay everywhere anti time , 'rIes
and groans of the wounded and dyIng pn , -
sentell a scene altogether h rrlble. Here were :
legs ant arms , scattered around and there
were pieces of flesh ant entrails. I was
sickening. Between the Northern PacIfic and
G reat . Northern depots , .a space of 300 feet ,
the t ground was literally covered with parts
of human beings and wIlls the dead ant Ii 11-
Jured. j The scene was one of utter and absolute -
solute destruction. The houses - In the vIciniy :
were a thoroughly wrecked as If a cyclone
had passe through them. One of the resc U- '
Ing l corps gathered twenty.seven dead bodies
In i oneS pile. Eight were In anoUler. Two and
three were In other groups. The rescuers
puled some of time bodies out still quivering ,
the remnants of time human beings still groanIng -
Ing i whlo legs and arms hat been torn o cc .
Shapeless trunks quivered ant died In the
arms of time living.
The work of rescue was prosecuted In ear n-
e at. Every vehlco In the city was broug lit
Into I service. to carry away the scores of dead
and the hundreds of Injured. The hospitals
were filled. The spare rooms In the hotels
were taken , and private houses were thrown
open where II was necessary. The hose
wagon crew consisted of Chief Cameron , As-
slstnnt Chief Sloan , Sam Ash , Ed Sloan , Dave
Moses , Dave Magee and Jack Flannery. Magee [ -
gee was the driver and remained with tbo
wagon about forty yards away while Fle In.
nery was at the hydrant. Time hook and lad. I I
der was manned by George FIler and Pete
Nolan , of time regular paid department , and
William Orr. one of the volunteers. Chief
Cameron directed time attack on time buiding
amid while some of the firemen handed a I inc
of hose along , the others started In to tear
oft time Iron covering of time buIldIng EO they
could get at the names. JUst as they had 1 :
succeeded In tearing off a part of the coverIng -
lug , amid secured an entrance the"frst explosion -
sion came. A blindIng sheet of flame forced
time roof from Its fastenings and shot It 100
feet Into the air Then folowell a secon el's
deadly sIlence and then came time awful roar ' ,
carrying with It annihIlation to those who
vdc.
closely surrounded the death trap and de.
structon on evmry band.
The sight In the undertaking estabil sh-
snouts thIs morning were something aw ful .

not associated with the wlstom of the ser-

and regarded his

Caslmlr-Perler promised to be a friend to his

pOOI a public funeral at I cost of 20,000
francs ant a pension to the widow of 12,000

AVENGED A FANCIED SLIGHT.
There has been I.
an Impression at the t
Chamber that to avenge this fancied slig I
Caslmlr-Perler set on the minister of slght
to have the blackmailers Canlvel and Ti 0-
card arrested not so much to punish them
as to find In their deks documents damagIng -
Ing l In connecton wih the Southern raiway
scandals to a number of deputies. Then
came on time Gerault-Rlcimard affair . which Is
analagous to the George II and Wilkes af-
fair. Richard Is a ribald scoundrel Ii ie

whereas King George hat to put up with ,

Since then time Chamber had pushed its ac-
commotatng spirit so far as to expel , on
Insufcient i pretexts , two deputes who were
personally Inimical to Caslmlr.Perler , namely
Jaures , who In defending Richards at the I
aSElzes delivered a phllpic against the Ca si-
mlr.Perler family , In bad taste but not m

convoking the natonal assembly for 1 o'cloelt
to morrow at Versailles. .
What Is the true reason ef tIme step taken
by the presIdent Is 1' question upon which ]
there Is a great conflict of opinion. The
press Is almost unanimous In h 1lng , that
Cashnlr-Perler Is to lame for } lwlng hosen ii

In this connection , some details \ of the dec : -
ton of l. Caslnlr-Perler to the presIdency "

beloved that the lervous strain has been

or the Chamber of Deputes , deprived the
president of an intimate personal friend ! , and I
. his h IDES affected the president most deeply ,
but those who
are most competent to express -

reason to belIeve that the manifesto goat
