BALTIMORE. ii‘cb. it. 1:15 p. nix—3
Sweeping along with unabated tury,;
the greatest con‘iiagrntion in the his-I
tory of Baltimore is raging in the bar-
bOr section, and bids fair to roll up;
a property loss far In excess of all pre- *
vious estimates. 1

A northerly wind Is blowing. adding
to the terrific odds which the army ofi
fire fighters are combatting with the»
great lire still running unchecked. The !
estimates vary, ranging as high asfi
$200,000.000 to $300,000,000. With the‘
fierce wind blowing. nothing can stem
the tide of the flames till all the prop- .
any in that section is burned to tile
water's edge. From the .myrlads of
lumber yards on the western side of
Jones Falls, the little muddy stream
that flows through the business section
of-the Oriole City, the flames have
leaped over to the other side of the
stream and are rapidly eating into the
mass of oyster and fruit. packing es-
tablishments. and these are rapidly
crumbling into ruins. The most mar-
velous feature of the great catastrophe
is that but two lives have been lost.
The clanging of the hospital ambu-
lances bore evidence of the minor cas—
ualties. however, and up to this hour
approximately thirty-fire persons have
been injured, Including one fireman
seriously hurt. while working in the
burning section. The. city‘government
has been entirely suspended, and the
city is under complete military con—
trol. The city officials are adopting
the most heroic measures to check the
flames, and Governor Warfield has lei»

the fire fiend laughed at such paltry
efforts. for the flames simply Jumped
these vacant spaces and licked up the
buildings on the far side. It is an»
ticipated that there may be much suf-
fering and destitution following upon
the heels of the destructive visitation
and Mayor McLane and other city offic.
this are already discussing the most
ready means of relief. it Is estimated
that 20,000 persons will be thrown out
of employment.

Protection Against Looting.

llrlgadierfleneral Riggs, command-
Ing the State National Guard. has Is-
sued strict instructions to guard
against any possible looting of partially
destroyed or abandoned houscs. So
far there have been no instances of
looting reported.

Gov. Warfleld has called an extra
session of the icgislattlm to meet this
evening at Baltimore, to empower him
to declare the city under martial law
and to suspend all business for ten
days. '

Legal Holiday Declared. .
Today has been declared a legal holi~

as a chance to straighten out. Gov.
War-field stated today that every safe
deposit box and vault in the various
institutions was absolutely safe; that
the records were preserved. and that it
was next to impossible for serious dan-
ger to happen to documents contained
therein.

direction of Superintendent Wain-

Johnson. formerly Mrs. Maria Godaon,
of 218 South Main street. Mr. Johnson
claims that the linemen spit on his
wife. used abusive and insulting lan-
guage to her, shoveled dirt on her, and
in other was! misused her. so that she
fell in a faint tn the hole which but
be dug there. and it took nearly an

Saturday morning the linemen start-
cd to dig a hole, as she claims. on her
own property. They succeeded In dig—
ging the hole. but Mrs. Johnson scour»
ed some carpet. arranged it about the
hole and sat almost all day In it. with
her feet hanging down the? hole. The
linemen cxpostulaied. but without
avail. Finally they went away. A
little later. they return. and found Mrs.
Johnson still sitting in the hole keep-
ing guard. Then. it is claimed that
the trouble commenced. , ,

Mr. Johnson stated this morning that
the linemen. in charge of Superinten-
dent Walnwright. started to fill up the
hole. and had buried her as far as the
knees. its also claims that they spit
on her, used Insulting language to her.
and called her indecent names. He si-
no states that a complaint was made
to the police, but no action was taken.

All they were filling in the hole. Mrs.
Johnson fell over in a faint. She was
removed from the hole and taken into
her house. Attempts to revive her
failed. and Dr, ‘W. J. Tracey. who is
the trolley company‘s doctor, was cali-
cd by the company. Later Dr. Shcror.
her family physician. was called. After
about an hour, Mrs. Johnsonicnme out
of the fainting spell. After she was
taken into the house, the trolley people
went ahead and set the pole in place.

Her clothlns.‘ which” was exhibited
this morning by her husband, was plas-
tered thick with, yellow mud and dirt.
