Fire Rips Sioux City Grain Elevator and Nearby Homes
A noon fire at the eight story Sioux City Terminal Grain Elevator caused over 200000 in damage, gutting the 30000 bushel grain store and injuring no one. The blaze spread to nearby buildings including the Milwaukee railroad ice house, with sparks driving roofs, and two infants narrowly escaped cremation as rescuers pulled them from danger. The elevator workers faced peril while the town fought the flames and power lines were knocked out.
