Fire's Costly Havoc Unfolds on Minneapolis East Side
A massive fire on Nicollet Island and surrounding areas in Minneapolis destroys two million dollars in property, leaving over 200 houses burned and about 1,500 people homeless within two hours. Sparks reach Boom Island and lumber yards, with residents fleeing to the river as flames threaten long blocks of wooden structures. The blaze reduces Clarke & Co box factory, Lenhart wagon works, Cedar Lake ice house, and Lintges Connell boiler works, amid dramatic rescues and widespread destruction. The Chicago Post commentary follows, contrasting American urban living with continental tastes for seclusion and urging reflection on modern wealth and restless society.
