THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, MAY 3, 1896, DISASTROUS FIRE ON BEALE STREET, Lead Reduction Works of Fuller & Co. De- stroyed. LOSS PROBABLY $150,000. There Is Considerable Mystery. Surrounding the Origin of the Fire. MANY RESIDENCES: DESTROYED Nearly a Score of Poor People Are " Left ‘Home'ess—Fireman and : Policeman Injured. The most disastrous fire seen in San Francisco -since the Brannan-street con- flagration nearly a_year ago occurred yes- terday morning when the reduction works of W, P.Fuller & Co. on Fremont and Beale stréets, between Howard and Fol. gom, were totally destroyed. In-addition to this the machine shop of Murray Bros: and some half a dozen residences in the “tame block were also burned. The buildings named were completely gutted, the loss being variously estimated at from $130,000 to $200,000: ‘The cause and origin of the fire is at present unknown: At 3:40 okfgek an early pedesirian passiig along Folsom detectea an .intense glare. When he reached Beale street the flames were 'to be seen issuing from the shop of Murray . Bros,, 252 Beale street. Back: of this estab- lishment Jay “the .reduction works and there the flames were burning briskly. An alarm was turned ‘in from box 51 at 3:52. A. M. and .five minutes later a second cali wis sounded.. At 4:13 Chief Sullivan or- dered a general alarm, fifteen engines re- sponding to the call. 0. conguer the flames, in view of the Start- and _the .combustible material on Wi they fed, was a physical fim- - possibility.” 8o thie firemen directed their “energies. (oward keeping the fire within the block bounded Ey Folsom, Howard, Beale and Fremont streets. - It was a hard, long drawn out .battie, but the firemen finally won. -. The reduction works of W. P. Fuller & Co: extended fiom Beale .to Fremont streets. 1t was a large, three-story frame - - structure with about 100 feet frontage ‘and - filled : from garret to cellar with combusti- blé materials, oils forming a large part of the.stock on hand. - An efiort was made to prevent the fire from extending to the vats, but the résult showed it was so much time wasted. In lessthan fifteen minutes the entire building was ‘a -seething mass of " flames, the various arms of which shot “sky d some fifty feet or more. *. - Adjoining’ tho reduction works to the -north'was ‘the big four-story brick build- ing used by Fuller & Co., as 2 paint and oil factory.” This also extends through to Fremont streét. After a time the heat Rgrew so inténse that the big iron shutters on the €outh side became warped, and in ‘two ‘of three instances actually melted. In a few. moments thesecand story caught fire'near the center, and with astonishing rapidity soon .gutted the building for a distance 0f 125 feet to #ard Fremont street. . Every. effort was made to save the con- " tents, but the lreat was so intense as to .prevent the firemen from approaching ‘nearenough 0 do any actual good. Their. efforts therefore were directed voward the “front .of the building, which escaved any serious damage. Much of the costly machinery; however, was confined in ‘the Fremont end of the building, and it went tumbling to the basement a mass of ruins. On- Folsom street; between Beale and Fremont, were a number of one and two :story frame dwellings, abutting in many instances the reduction works. When the fire was- fifst discovered, the occupants were. 2slepp, but “when they were finally aroused, not. many stood on the order of their going. Gathering such wearing ap- parel as was within easy reach, the occu- pants fled hastily to the street, satisfied to escape with their lives. In many instances men, women and children reached the street in scanty, shivering attire. A few hazardous spirits succeeded in rescuing some furniture and wearing apparel, but ih the main the household goods were totally destroyed. : The two-story frame building in the rear of 320 Folsom ‘street, owned %y P. Reilly and occupied by Mrs. McKenna and Mrs. Johnson as a residence, was almost en- tirely destroyed, as was the furniture. A two-story frame dwelling adjoining, occu- pied by J. Splane, C. Spanier, Mrs. Marks and P. Hallinan and owned by Joe Lainey, was burned to the ground, as was the frame buildings at 1, 2 and 3 Lincoln place, occn- pied_by T.T.Bryant, Joseph McCarthy and Mrs. Keating and owned by Mrs. Mary D. Enright. The wind then swept the flames over to Fremont street, where two two-story frame buildings, owned by Mary D. Enright, were destroyed. 3 Superintendent Comstock of the Fire Patrol in his repor: fixes the buildings de- stroyed and the actual loss as follows: One-story frame, bulkheads and vats, on Fremont, through to Beale, between Howard and Folsom ; owned by W. P. Fuller & Co.; oc- cupied by same as lesd reduction works; esti- mated loss, buikheads and vats, $5000; con- tents, $3000. Extended to four-story and basement brick, 228230 Beale and 229-231 Fremont; owned by W. P. Fuller; occupied by same as paint llcl.or{ oils and looking-glasses; estimated loss on building, $15,000; contents, 00,000. Extended to two-story frame, 252 eale; owned by Cavanaugh; occupied by Murray Bros. as machine-shop; estimated 1oss on building, $1000; contents, $2000.

Enright; occupied by Mrs. Fitzgibbons, M. Doned, H. Meyer as dwellings; estimated loss on building; $300; contents, $200. There are some who think that the fire originated in that portion of the Reduction Works where red lead was burned. There is always more or less heat in the cor- roding-bins, and the temperature is never less than 80 deg. Samuel P.Smiley, one of the employes of Fuller & Co., said the firm took every precaution toward guard- ing against fire, and in his opinion the fire started in the rear of Murray & Co.’s machine-shop. Smiley was positive that no r-d lead was burned Friday night. Officer William Caliahan, while assisting at the fire, was caught by some ialling debris, suffering painful but serious burns about the facé, neck and arms. George Thomas was also injured by a faliing shut- ter, being badly cut about the head and shoulders. Thomas ana Callahan had their inP'uriel dressed at the Receiving Hospital and later were removed to their respective homes. 2 Fuller & Co. yesterday afternoon issned a statement placing the damage to their business at a quarter of a million dollars. The statement is as follows: The- fire :1s supposed to have originated in the rear of a machine shop on the northwest corner of Folsom and Beale streets, about 200 feet south of the corroding plant of W. P. Ful- ler & Co. The damage caused by the fire will exceed $500,000. Fuller & Co.’s corroding plant is & total loss. Their brick factory build- ng, udr{t)lnmgon the north and its contents are badly damaged. The excellent construc- tion of the factory building prevented itsen- tire destruction, -2s it is separated by fire divis- jon walls into four cn)mglnmenu, the open- fing being protected by double Standard fire o 078, The loss to Fuller & Co. is very heavy. They are unable at present to estimate it, but in all probability it will exceed $300,000, covered by partial insurance. The Fire Department did excellent work -and by its efforts the total destruction of the Fuller premises was prevented. As the result of the fire 250 men will be thrown out of employment. George Thomas, living at 22 Verona street, and John Leahy, 1210 Kearny street, both firemen, were injured at the fire and were attended to at the Receiving Hospital. Thomas in running fell and sprained his shoulder, while Eeahv was strack on the right.shoulder by-a falling iron door and had it dislocated..” If he had not jumped back it would have struck him on the head and probably killed him.

Ambitious Soldier Boys Who Are Fired by - His Success. PROGRESS BY MERIT. The New Road to Promotion Recently Opened Out to Enlistel Men. LATE EXAMINATION IN POINT. Some Fortunate Candidates Who Have Risen From the Ranks and Their Records. The recent promotion of General Nelson A. miles to the office of major-general commanding the United States army and the favorable action taken by the House of Representatives towaesd making him lien- tenant-general emphasizes the fact that ihe first step leading to that exalted posi- tion does not have to be carpeted witha West Point diploma. The way may be made more or less diffi- cult by the prejudices of a century’s growth against innovations on' the time-honored traditions of the regular army. Backed by the law and the precedent set in General Miles’ case the ambitious private soldier, when qualified to pass the pre- scribed tests of mental, moral and physi- cal development, may by persistence, patience and good conduct overcome the difficulties which may hinder his way and in time wear the insignia of rank and draw the generous pay of the commanding general of the armies of the United States. How this may be_is shown further on: but let no one "Le deluded with the idea that this road to the desired promotion is a whit easier than the one which begins Corporal W. S, Sample. the title of “‘candidate” prefixed to that of his rank on all rolls, returns, orders and offictal correspondence. Hisnameis placed on the relative merit roll of successful com;:lilors. and he receives appointment in bis turn to fill any vacancy that may oceur in the grade of second lieutenant. In accordance with the above provisions of the law, the annual examination for enlisted men in the Department of Cali- fornia for promotion to the grade of second lieutenant was held in the Phelan build- ing, in this City, beginning March 28, and ending April 2. The officers composing the examinin board were: Deputy Surgeon - Gener: Middleton, Captain Buck, Colonel Guen- ther, Captain Starr and Lieutenant Green, chie} signal officer. The results of the examination and the recommendations of the board have been forwarded to Washington, and in due time the young candidates will receive orders to report at t'ort Leavenworth for the final examination. It is learned from the de- artment headquarters that all the candi- gnes passed very creditably and that they were the brightest set of young men who have ever appeared before this board for examinatio: They were: Sergeant-Major Robert Mc- Clure, Battery A, First Infantry, Angel Island; Corporal Preston Brown, Battery A, Fifth Artillery, Presidio, and Corporal ‘Warren 8. Sample, Company b, First In- fantry, Angel Island. 2 Sergeant McClure is a son of Captain McClure, United States army, and is a graduate of the University of California. Corporal Brown is the son of the late Colonel John Mason Brown, a leading lawyer of the Kentucky bar, and a gallant Federal officer during the late war. He is a grnndsnn of General William C. Preston, who was Minister to Spain under Mr. Buchanan, and a major-general in the Confederate army. Ccfu-poral Brown is a graduate of Yale ollege. Corporal sunfile is a member of a well- known Kentucky family, and earned his appointment to West Point on a com- titive examination open to all comers in is Congressional district. He took high rank in his classes, but was compelled to resign at the end of his third year on account of his eyes, which gave way under the hard work which he had undertaken. Upon the advice of Mr. Elkins, the then Secretary of War, he enlisted in the regu- lar army, with the purpose of recruiting his strength and availing himself of the opportunity as above provided of getting a pair of epaulettes without a West Point diploma. ¢ 3 Il)'ha results of this examination, it is Sergeant McClure. with the entrance examination at West Point—far from it. It has one great ad- vantage, however, and that is the start may be made without having any political “pull” or packing and the would-be eneral is no ionger dependent on the Favcr of the Congressman from his dis- trict or the azreement of his political com- plexion with that of the party in power for the opportunity to enter the lists on the field of honor. In 1892 tke act of 1878, providing for the promotion of meritorious non-commis- sioned officers was repealed. There were very many objections to it, not the least of which was the opportunity for favoritism at the hands of the officers making the re- quired recommendations. Unless a man stood well with his immediate superiors his chances for a commission were next to nothing. The following explains the present method: Generel orders No. 79. HEADQUARTERS OF THE ARMY, ADJUTANT-GENERAL'S OFPICE, WASHINGTON, November 26, 1892, By the direction of the Secretary of War the following law, and the regulations estabe lished by the President to carry the same into effect, are published for the informa- tion and guidance of all concerned : Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of Amer- ica in Congress assembled, That the President be, and is hereby, authorized to perscribe a system of examinations of enlisted men in the army, by such boards as may be established by "him, to_ determine their fitness for promotion to the grade of second lieutenant. Provided, that' all unmurried soldlers under the age of 30 years who are citizens of the United States, are physically sound, who have served honorably not less than two years in ‘the army, and who have borne & good moral character before and after enlistment, may compete for promotion under any system authorized by this act, 5 Sec. 2.

THOCPERS DN THE MARCH The Four Cavalry Companies at the Presidio to Start South. They Will Leave This Morning for Patrol Duty at the Govern- ment Parks. The four troops of cavalry at the Presidio will start this morning for the National parks, the Yosemite and the Sequoia. Every spring for the past four years some troops from the Fourth Cavalry, sta- tioned at the Presidio, have been ordered to the parks on police duty. At first one traop went to each park, but since then the force has been increased every year until to-day the largest body of men yet sent out will start south. Troops B, C, I and K are the troops sta- tioned at the Presidio. They are all full troops and all have had experience in po- licing the parks. The march down will take several days, but horses and men will start with an imposing wagon train and the roadside camps will have nearly all the comforts of home. The_ duties of the troops at the park: make life there anything but easy. Ban of catile and sheep turned out on the hills to shift for themselves will, as soon as the snow melts, make a line for the parks, where, as no cattle are allowed to stay there, the grass is always long and juicy. Not only do the herds find their own way to the parks, but scheming drovers some- times nelp them -long]. and unless dis- turbed by the soldiers allow them to grow fat within the precincts of the Govern- ment’s gardens. Belore it became the cus- tom to police the parks the land was over- run with cattle. The grass was eaten almost as soon as it shot upward, and thousands upon thousands of cattle and sheep remained permanently in the pre- serves. Now, however, it is different, Cattle that are caught are driven out at once, sometimes where they came in, sometimes on the opposite side of the preserve. If the herder is there with them, he is put out on one side and his herd on the other. At first the uproar among herders was tremendous, but now they have learned to kee off the for- their cattle and s! “F bidden ground, and there is less trouble. The boundariesjare patroiled by squads of three or four troopers, under a non- commissioned officer, which keep moving from station to station until, having made the circuit, they find themselves back at the camp again. Other troopers are en- gaged in striking out new ' trails and blazing old ones, and altogether the troops are kept busy. The troovs will remain at the parks abont seven months. They go as soon as the 8now is just melting and they will re- main until the winter snows drive them home again. ————————— Lecture to Art Students. The lecture detivered a few evenings ago by J. H.

Plant Erected for the Perfect Reduction of Low-Grade Ores. MILLIONS IN THE PATENT. The New Morosco Fusion Process for Extraction of Precious Metals a Complete Success. Very few people are aware that in the little mining town of Amador City there has been erected within the past year a plant for the working of base ore destined of Wright Brothers of Bakersfield.

At the finish of their ten-round setto to revolutionize the mining industry of Ziegler was certainly the freshest man and THE NEW CONCENTRATOR. [From a photograph.] the world. The treatment is known as the Morosco fusion process and the patents covering the same are owned by '_.he Morosco, Shields & Bishop Fusion Company. The subjection of calcined ore to a molten lead bath and extraction of the precious metals by so doing is not an idea of rTecent date. To devise practical machinery for feeding the ore continu- ously into the lead, to then handle the same in its passage through the molten metal so as to bring every particle of ore in contact with thelead for a sufficient length of time, to insure perfect extrac- tion of the precious metals, to discharge the tailings from the apparatus witiout any loss of lead, to combine all these points successfully has required much thought, labor and capital. Many ineffectual attempts have been made to accomplish this, and the United Btates Patent Office and other records show numerous failures by those attempt- ing to produce a mechanism that would enable the ore to have all the conditions necessary for amalgamation while im- mersed in the lead and at the sawe time secure a steady and automatic discharge after treatment. Eminent authorities have conceded that such a process would be a success and in certain branches revolutionize ore treat- ment, providing the mechanical effects could be so constructed as to insure steady introduction and perfect segregation of the ore while in the lead, automatically dis- charging same, all these features to com- bine regularity and durability. Last June the erection of a plant was commenced iny Amador County at the Bunker Hill, and operations were at once begun to demonstrate and work the pro- cess on a practical scale. This process now completed, is offered to the mining public for their investigation. The num- berless failures of the past will cause man, men to doubt if a success is really at hand. The photographs here shown will give an adequate insiiht into the works, showing a plant capable of treating between ten and twenty tons per day, which has been running successfully on ore since April 3, 1896. The treatmentof ore in detail is briefly as follows: Theore being first reduced to thirty or forty mesh according to its char- acter, is then given a dead roast to freeit from all volatile bases, such as sulphur, arsenie, fantimony, ete., which if allowed to remain would prevent the ore and lead coming together. The roasted ore is at once fed to the bath machine while still at a high beat, as the introduced ore must necessarily be considerably above the melting point of lead (640 F.), in order that there may be no chiiling effect upon the bath and thereby reduce the amaliga- mating heat. The roasted ore is fed in a steady stream, automatically, to the bottom of the bath well, which is a very heavy iron casting, thirty inches in diameter and six feet deep. The ore on reaching the bottom of this casting is freed, and at once attempts to rise by ils own gravity through the bath of molten lead, of which there are over five tons. In this chamber are circular per- forated plates with reversed stir-arms be- tween, and the ore is caught by the first stirrers and seggregated, passing through the first plate and on to the second set of stirrers, continuing this operation five times, until it arrives on the suriace of the lead, where it is discharged automatically by a rapidly revolving xskilthen toa tnr 'y box of running water which immediate. chills the ore and thence passes on to the concentrator. After the ore passes throngh the bath it carries no gold or silver, as the prectous metals have become fused witn the lead and leit behind in the well, while the ore is uischarged into the water-box, carrying with it about 44 per cent of lead, which is all recovered on the concentrators, re- melted and refined and is used again in the bath. The bath furnace takes one-quarter of a cord of wood in twenty-four hours to keep a proper heat. Twelve horsepower is re- quired for running machinery. Proyiding the capacity of the prasent machine is only ten tons per day, the cost of working per ton is $2 02 on chlorination tailings that have lain idle for want of some means to extract their remaining value. Gold-bearing sulphates and base ores can be worked by the Morosco Fusion process for from §3 to $4 per ton ana yield over 90 per cent extraction. The vast bodies of pay ore now lying idle for want of successful treatment will no doubt prove a bonanza to the owners of the Morosco Fusion process, A TRAINER UNDER ARREST. “Red Jim™ Phillips Charged With “‘Doping”” the Gray Mare Gracle S.
