Many Buildings Burned In Bath
Beach and Elsewhere.
CHICAGO, Feb. 28.——A disastrous fire
broke out today in the heart of the West
Side factory district, and by 10:30 had
caused a. loss of $250,000, and at that hour
threatened to destroy a. vast amount of
property.
' The fire started in the five story brick
Kaestner building, at 245 South J efierson
street. In the building were the Kaestner
Knitting works, the Pioneer Paper com-
pany and the Bach 81. Hertz Feather com-
pany. The building was crowded with
men and women employees, and the rapid
spread of the flames resulted in a panic, in
which great loss of life was narrowly avert-
Q
D:
About 100 women and girls, in addition
to a'large number of men and boys, were
at work, and in the stampede many were
knocked down and badly bruised. Many
of the women were rescued by the firemen.
. The burning building stood in the very
center of the factory dist-riot. flanked on
either side by big manufactories, and soon
the efforts of the firemen were directed
entirely to tho endeavor to prevent the
spread of the flames. The Kaestner build-
ing was $0011 beyond help.
Other Buildings Burned.
Despite the efforts of the firemen, the
flames spread to the south portion of the
Crane elevator works, which adjoincd the
Knestncr building on the north. A brisk
wind fanned the fire, and the loss to the
Elevator company is heavy.
Five dwellings in the vicinity were to-
tally destroyed, and the flying embers
started several ?:;-.... fires in buildings sev-
eral blocks away.
A panic occurred in the Lancaster cara-
mel factory on Harrison street, several
blocks from the fire.
Two hundred and twenty children were
at work in the factory when the flames
from the Kaestner building were seen and
some one sounded an alarm. A wild rush
for the exits followed. the children becom-
ing crazed with terror.
They rushed down the stairways, tram-
pling underfoot. those who had fallen, and
several boys jumped from second story
windows. Help was summoned, and 11
children were removed, unconscious, in
ambulances. It is feared that several of
them are fatally injured. The loss by the
fire will probably be nearly $600,000.

PITMAN GROVE, N. J ., Feb. 28.—A fire
which was caused by the explosion of a,
coal oil stove started in the residence of
John Kerschncr, on Twelfth avenue, at 9
o’clock this morning. Before the flames
were gotten under control six cottages
were totally destroyed, as many more bad-
ly damaged, and several houses had to be
torn down to prevent the spread of the
flames. It looked at one time as it tho en-
tire camp grounds would be burned over,
but by hard work on the part of the resi-
dents the fiamcs were checked.
One of Kerschncr’s children, a baby 1
year old, was so badly burned that it will
probably die. .. -
