Dallas. 8ept. SO,—A fire which hap-
pened on Elm street, lu the business
section, Tuesday night, did between
|15t),0t)0 and $800,000 damage, cost
one fireman his life and Injured four
morn. The dead man was J. M. Parton.
The Injured are West Webb, Will
Btampley, Ray West and A. I,, Davis.
Shortly after the fire was discov-
•ted in the second floor of the building
occupied by .1. H. Blakuuey to the west
of the liquor establishment of I,. Crad-
dock & Co., an explosion occurred in
the liquor house which sent a shower
of glass to the street below and shook
the walls of the burning structure
After this the fire swept onward In Its
course, spreading to building# on each
altle.
The furniture establishment of Will
iara Kelly was soon a mass of flames
and the flames spread to the Egan
Farry Electrical company's storerooms.
The tire department in the business
district, was prompt in responding, but
It was quickly perceived that more ap~
paratusa would be net etwar.v to fight
the flames, and a general alarm was
turned In. bringing every available
piece of apparatus in thc/ciiy to the
scene.
While the fire was at its hottest
and the firemen had crowded into the
Craddock building in order to reach
the blaze in the heart of the block,
with a crash the entire second fleet
fell upon them, hearing with its enor-
mous weight of barrel goods and caus-
ing a scream of horror from those out
Bide and a cry of warning from their
fellow firemen.
Immediately every fireman within
reach plunged into the ruin of the
flooring, retiring aside the timbers,
heaving out the hot bricks and bring-
ing to light in a few moments the
smoked and blackened firemen on
Whom the floor had fallen with the
exception of one who was pinned down
hy the timbered planking iii such a
manner that only the upper part of his
foead was visible,
. Wolf, dtampte.v and West were soon
reesued.
The effortfp rescue Davis was a he
role one.« HdJ'-wiib the other four
firemen, was on nee second floor of
the Craddock bulldwe-when it gave
.way. The heat was sw intense that
It drove the workers bark To fight
the flames with water meant certain
drowning of Davis, for the place was
already filled with water, and t few
more laches would cover hint. All his
body Was pinned down except his
head and one shoulder Chemicals
Were called Into play, and the tire
was driven back. Then a doctor rush
Pd in and administered opiate# The
work Of rescuing him progressed slu r
ly for the reason that great caution
had: to be exercised, else heavy tint
hers would fail and crush him
At 8:35 Wednesday morning, when
the remitters finally removed the de
briH from around Fireman Pavi* and
had conveyed him to tile hospital, they
found just a few feet away the lifeless
body of another man Fire Chief Ms
gee looked at the remains and express
ed the opinion that they were those of
jl, it. Tartan, driver of No*! company
Chief Magee said he thought It was
IPwrton because Part on was the only
member of the department as yet un
