Mardi Gras Festivity Amid City Fire Destruction in New Orleans
A chaotic Mardi Gras rush follows a February New Orleans fire that burned 70 acres along the river, destroying docks, 75 wooden houses, freight cars, and grain elevators while threatening riverfront vessels. The blaze, dating from the Illinois Central docks, caused over five million dollars in losses with four million insured, and the city decorates with bunting as Shrove Tuesday approaches. The Brooklyn cruiser, Schley’s former flag ship, anchors upriver, and notes on New Orleans history and politics conclude the account.
