Boston Fire Casts Wide Reach on City’s Trade
Fifteen hours after the fire began Boston’s western business district was ruined, engulfing 200 acres of major commerce. The loss to Eastern manufacturers was heavy as stocks lay in this sector. Comparisons to Chicago’s earlier disaster surface, with predictions of business paralysis unlikely to fully materialize. Insurance scales show 192 companies involved, with property destruction pegged around 80 million dollars. Charitable outpourings span nations, renewing bonds between cities and peoples. McCrary is reelected in Iowa’s First District by about 4,500 votes, and Ray is named to succeed Neece in the Tenth District, expanding Republican gains to 13–6.

Fire Devastates Boston Business District on Devonshire
Ware November 9 dispatches describe a massive conflagration ravaging Boston, with attempts to blow up corners at Devonshire and Milk streets. The blaze, fuelled by dry goods and wool houses, destroys wholesale blocks from Summer to Washington, with bridges of fire spreading toward South Boston and federal street.
