i(lSS AT THE SUNDAY FIRE Damage Proves to Be Not 8o Heavy as Was at First Reported. ESTIMATING THE DESTRUCTION DONE Asies Bollding Saffers Less Than Was Sap- posed—Omaha Hardware Company's Stock a Total Wreck Other Firms Fare The damage by Sunday morning's de- structive firc in the Ames block, in which wes the Omaha Hardware company's whole- salo store and which wus completely de- stroyed, is not 80 hicAvy as was first sup- vosed, The loss on the entire building, fronting on Jones street and which is ownod by Fred- erick H. Ames, a Boston capitalist, will not exceed £10,000 or $12,000, as just that portion of the buiiding occupied by the hardware company was gutted. ‘I'here were five floors and those, together with the roof, went down in a ruinous heap. The fire walls on either sido of the hardware storeroom were strong and substantial, protecting the build- ing on the east and the west from tho hot flames, It1s thought that the portion of the building occupied by the hardware firm can be replaced for §10,000 or $12,000. The build- Ing is wnsured. The serious loss is, of course, to the Omaha Hardware company, whose stock of goods was almost entively destroyed, The stock, according to Frank V. Miller, secrotary of tho concern, was not worth over $135,000 or $140,000, while the insurance carried is $125,000, Tne secretary is the son of L A, Miller of Council Bluffs, and general man- ager of the hardware ccmopany. He, to- gotner with A.S. Carter, treasurer, and other members of the company, Visited yesterday morning and afternoon the dilapi- dated and ruinous sceno of their business. The origin of tho fire is supposed to be the work of an incendiary, although some seem to think that it got its start by scme explosive substance that was included in the hardware stock. At all events it _was one of the most destructive fires Omaha has hada for some time. it was also handlea exceod- ingly well, considering the factthut the fire- men were hampercd on account of tho storm, the city being in_darkness and all the wires being _down, Then, too, tho building is badly located and hiard to reach i qguick time, on account of the Tenth street viaduct and the close proxiwity of adjacent build- ings, x Scencs at the Ruin. All day lobg, and in fact from the time the fire started, the fircmen wero assiduously at work playlug streams of water upon the smouldering debris that lay in a mass at the bottom of the once five-story structure, Iron girders, twisted and contorted in all ‘maginable shapes, heavy hardware, cutlery, iguns, pistols, axes, knives and the like, lay wnere in the ruinous heap. Everything per- ished, as the heat from the fierce and hot flames destroyed them. The portion of the building occupied in the ‘west end oy ihe United States Wind Engine and Pump company was shghtly damaged only. The company’s stock is principally damaged by water which surged in at the cellar, damagivg the plumber’'s stock of goods. The insurance will cover the slight loss. The eastend was unoccupied, with tho exception of some hardware stored n iu by the Omaha Hardware company. "Chousands of people in throngs visited the scene of destruction and viewed the ruinous mass of debris, with its bare walls towering upward on either side of the mam- moth building. In the massive pile of rub- bish at the north cnd a portion of the com- vany’s safe could be seen. At the east end an immense quantity of axel grease burned all day and fed the smouldering rubbish. “Phe only accident that occurred during the fire was to C. Reynolds, a fireman of truck No. 1. A buge timber, in falling, struck Reynolds on the shoulder and right arm. He ‘was_not anrlnlfll{ injured, but was incapaci- tated for work. He was removed in the pa- trol wagon to No. 8 engino house, after ‘which he was taken to Brown’s hospital. It is thought that be will recover from his wound within a few days.

The credit for so suc- cessfully handling what threatened to be a most serious coniagration s due Chief Charles Salter and Assistants Barnes aud Graves, “r'iat the fire was so soon gotten under con- trol is little less thun remarkable, as the rire- yery start almost overwhelming od The fire m wires were prostrated by Saturday’s storm, and as the telephono service was in a condition the only way of sending the alarm to the various engine houses wus h& mounted messenge Considering this 1o of affairs it will be seen that almost superhuman work on thu part of the down- town companies in delaying the progress of the flames was all that provented tho total destruction of the entire corner if uot, in- deed, of the whole block. rre— Ladies, ladies, think of the engagements you have broken and the aisappointments consequent to others end perhaps also to vourselves, all on acoount of headache, Bradycrotiue will cure you i fifteen min- Vies, e —— You are Invited.

M., March 27.--The case of Alamo Baca, Sovero Rubio and Jaquin Jimenez, who are in jal at Las Cruces, charged by tne Mexican consul at Deming with complicity in the murder of Mayor Acheta and others at Ascension, Mexico, in the local olection riots of January, was con- sidercd by the govarnor yesterday and argu- ments on the Issuance of extradition papers were heard. Attorneys for the accused claim that as this is a political offense, the prison- ers ure not extraditable. They also under- tako to show thut these men, while in the house in the vicinity in which the murders occurred, really had no hand in them and, above all, they allego that Baca should not be turned over 1o the Mexican authoritics because he s in fact a citizen of the United States, A. B. Fall, an attorney for Baca, is in Washineton, and has had a conference with the State department over this matter and it is said he has arranged, in case Governor Prince decides to permit the removal of these prisoners, to have tho case appealed and taken up for consideration of the Depart- ment of State.

Escape, Although One Witness Was Assassinated. CawiiLg, Ga,, March 27.—Mitchell county has convicted its firstlyncher. The lyncher's namo is Barney White. It was early last fall that a.party of masked men took Larkin Nix from a Thomas county prison. For two days nothing was heard of tho party, at the end of which time they tied Nix to a tree 1n Mitchell county and riddied him with shot. ‘The citizens of Mitchell county sev about finding out tho lynchers, A few months after a party of men took Burrell Holiand out at midnight ar:d flogged him. The mask fell from one of their faces and Burrell recognized Barney Whito, He was arrested, togother with six of his companions. .Great interest created by tho trimi, which opened last Monday, ending yesterday in the conviction of White, The same evidenco will convict all of them, although Will Davis, one of the witnesses, was murdered Jast night by assassins.

Gafford, the young lowa com- mission man. She wanted to speak to Mabel and being acquainted with both the occu- pants of the room felt no hesitancy in enter- ing. Tho gas was burning dimly and she walked directly to the bedside and shook Gafford’s arm. One touch of the flesh was cnough to alarm her, for the arm was cold and sUff. With a cry for help tho girl rushed from the apartment and down the stairs as fast as hor feet could carry her. An officer was quickiy called who tried to report the matter to poiice headquarters, but the wires weve down and ho had to run clear to the Mulard hotel in order to find a telephone that was in working order. In a moment after the discovery of the awful crime the whole house was in an up- roar. Tho inmates huddled togetver in the pariors or rushed wildly up and down the hall askitg all sorts of questions from the frightened woman who had found the bodies. After a moment or two of intense excitement the women quieted down und hardly spoke above a whisper until the bodies had been removed from tho premises. When the Coroner Came. Owing to the fact that no teiephones in the western part of the city were working, a cab had to be called and seat to Coroner Maul’s residence in order to get that ofticial on the scene as soon as possible. After the bodies had been viewed by coroner & search among the effects of dead was instituted, The coroner at first decided to ieave the bodies as thoy were until wmorning, in order to give the jury an opportunity to view the remains before removal, but this suggestion of Mr. Maul was_mat with $o much opposi- tion from Neliie King and the inmates that the coroner gave up the idsa and sent for his wagou and two coftins. The dead man’s satchel was tho Hirst thing examined and from books and papers it was found that the murderer’s name was Abner N. Gafford and not J. J. Gafford, as was first supposed. Kvery scrap of paper both in the dead man’s clothing and satchel was care- fully looked over in hopes of finding a bit of writing which would clear up the mystery of the crime, But tho search was fruitiess as nothing but a half dozen business memo- randa books were found and their contents threw no light the sub- Ject, except 1o establish the mname and resioence of the dead man, Some letters addressed to Mabel Dan- fels from Denver and signed Aggie Mooney ‘were found in the top drawer of the dressing case. These were taken possession of by tho coroner, who ufterwards lcarned that the Denver woman was o sister of the dead irl. When the bodies were being vrevared for removal it was found that Gafford held tightly clutched in his left hand a crumpled €1 bill, which, when unwrapped, was found to contain 15 cents, The revolver which lay close to the cold and stiff right hand was one of the latest pattern Smith & Wesson, 38-caliber, ham- merless weapons. A tiny stream of blood had flowed from the wound in Gaffora’s temple, across his death white face and down onto the snowy pillows and into the bed. It was found that the bullet which entered the woman’s brain haa clipped off one little curly lock of jet black hair, which lay on the pillow directly helow the spot where the bul- let haa entered. On Gafford’s coat was found the ensignia of tho lowa State Traveling Men’s associa- tion and in the pockets enough money in sil- ver to mako the total amount $2.42 was found. When the room occupied by Gufford and the apartment udjoining wore being cleaned the money which it was stated the voung man had was found. Scattered under the bed in the next room was a bundle of bills amounting to §24), 1t is presumod, judging from this fact, that Gafford had opened the folding doors and tossed the money into the room where 1t was found; that the crime was premeditated and uot committed on the spur of the moment, as was first supposed. Just as the first streaks of dawn webe peep- ing through the windows tho bodies were placed in separate cofiius and taken to the morgue. Concerning the Victims, As soon as possible the coroner telegraphed to the sister of the dead woman and 1eceived areply asking him to notifiy two brothers who were stopping at the Pacific house in Council Bluffs, This was done and the brotkers called &t the morgue later in the day to learn tho full particulars of the affair, One of the brothers said that his sister's name was Mary Mabel Mooney and that she was 16 years old. He also said that their parents” wero dead and that the girl had lived in the Bluffs until last August, when she left saying she was going to Carrol!, Ia, Since then nothing had been heard from her. A telegram was also sent to J. J. Gafford, tho fatber of tho deceased, at Manning, fa., who replied stating that he would arrive this morning. Notwithstanding notices which were posted in the doors of the morgue denying permission’to see the bodies, a small crowd of curious people hung about the front en- trance neariy all day, The inquest will be beld at 3 o'clock this afteruoon. —————— AMONG OMAHA’S TEACHERS, the the on The much-needed vacation is at hand, Most of the corps will take the weck for re- laxation (and sewing).
