Elephant Rampage and Fire Hit Rhode Island Area
A large elephant escaped from its keepers on the Pawtucket to Fall River road, killed three horses, smashed wagons, and injured two men before being captured near Slade's Ferry and moved to Fall River. A bleachery at Scott’s Pond in Smithfield owned by W. F. Sayles burned, with insured values totaling about 44 500. buildings and machinery valued at 25 000 and goods at 40 000. Nearby steamers Prometheus North Star and Illinois carried passengers to San Francisco while Catawba arrived at Mobile from Havana.
