Summer Hotel in English Indiana Burns Down
The White Sulphur Springs hotel ten miles south of English burned at 9 yesterday morning from a faulty kitchen flue. The blaze left the structure a ruin within an hour, with an estimated loss of 40 000 and no insurance. The resort famed for its mineral waters had hosted many guests in summers. The original building dates to 1888 with later enlargements and modernization by Louisville capitalists and Jeffersonville investors. Rebuilding is regarded as unlikely this season.
