GOLDFIELD, Nev., July 7.—Gold- field, once a synenym for fabulous | wealth, quick fortunes, gambling and |all the raw hurry and bustle of & western boom town, is but another name for desolation today. The desert blew a windy blast yesterday, fanned |a fire which ofgcluls said had been !set as an episode in a bootleggers' | teud, and swept the flames from end | to end of the commupjty. As a result | one man is dead, a woman is reported missing and damage estimated ui possibly $1,600,000 was done. Of all the streets of houses known {to the miners, the prospectors and the sportsmen who flocked hither to see the Gans-Nelson. . lightweight championship fight in 1906 only half a dozen buildings remain today. Of these the .Goldfield Hotel, where miners in sun-cracked boots used to watch dress-suited promoters dancing with women In fashionable dinner gowns, stands alone. Though the fire started across the street from it, this structure escaped virtually unscathed. Other buildings standing are the rail- road station, post office, the old John 8. Cook & Co.

Goldfield gave the flames a hurd battle. Water, piped 30 mlles from a spring in the' mountains, and dyna- mite, from the stores of mines and | the magazines of supply houses, were ‘used against them. But the water supply was inadequate, the dyna- | mite ‘only made fresh kindling out of the flimsy structures on which jit was used,.and the leaping wind carried flames and sparks ahead. Though for years Goldfield, which | once was a city of 25,000, had more | bouses "than _its dwindling popula- tion needed, last night there were | not roofs for the thousand that re- | mained when the fire started, but there was food, re, dless of the fact that all the town's supplies of edi- bles had been destroyed. From Tonopah. from other Nevada cities, even from California, went food, clothing or other relief to the | stricken town. | AGREE TO OPEN MINE. i ey ‘Workers End Strike in Plant Qwn- | ed by Union Heads.
