Ellis Island Fire 1897
Fire On Ellis Island
It Broke Out Shortly After Midnight in the Furnace of the Main Building.
The Fireboat New Yorker And Police Boat Patrol Have Gone To The Scene.
Communication With Island Was Cut Off-It Was Reported that All Persons Escaped With Their
Lives.
Fire broke out in the main building of the United States Immigration Station, on Ellis Island,
shortly after midnight. It was first discovered from this city, when the flames began to shoot out
from the northwest tower. This was at 12:30.
From that time on the fire ate its way ravenously through every part of the big structure, and at 1
o'clock the roof could be seen to fall in with a crash that sent the burning embers flying far into
the sky.
From the first all communication was cut off from the island. The telephone there is located in
the main building and just behind and inside of that portion which seems to have been the point
where the fire originated.
The building itself is one that seemed to invite an internal fire. It was constructed entirely of
Georgia pine and spruce, but on the outside had a tin covering of galvanized iron.
This was almost at once warped and twisted out of shape by the intense heat, and the docks,
cook-house, official residences, and other buildings, with one exception, were soon wrapped in
flames.
In fact, it looked as though the entire island, with the single exception of the male dormitory,
which was the old United States Government powder magazine, seemed one big blaze.
There were many immigrants on the island, and several ships landed large numbers there
yesterday. It is believed that over 600 immigrants were there.
The police boat Patrol, the fireboat New Yorker, and several tugs have gone
out to the island, and are doing everything possible to overcome the fire.

market street purchase notes, and $1,246,700 for the purchase of additional land.
Ready To Change The Power.
Underground Trolley Awaits Only the Letting of Contracts.
President Vreeland of the Metropolitan Street Railway said yesterday that since
the State Railway Commission has granted the company's application the work
of changing the motive power on Fourth, Sixth, Eighth, and Madison Avenues
would be pushed as rapidly as possible.
All the plans for the change from horse to underground trolley power, he said,
have already been completed, and a large part of the electrical plant has been
placed in the cable power house, in Twenty-fifth Street, and preparations are
being made for an electric power station at the foot of Ninety-sixth Street. The
contracts for the actual work of construction alone remain to complete the
preparations.
The work on Sixth and Eighth Avenues, he said, has been checked by certain
legal questions. He and the counsel of the company will go before the Sinking
Fund Commission Thursday to try to adjust these questions, so that the change
of motive power may be pushed rapidly. If the delay on the west side continues,
the material brought together for the work on Sixth and Eighth Avenues will be
transferred to the east side and used for making the change of power on the
Fourth and Madison Avenue line. It is possible, therefore, that the trolley cars
will be put into operation first on the east side.
President Vreeland said that he expected that the change of motive power on all
these lines would be completed before the end of this year.
Born on Brooklyn Bridge.
The first child born on the Brooklyn Bridge came into the world there yesterday
morning about 3 o'clock. It was a blue-eyed boy, and he weighed nearly seven
pounds and was robust and healthy. His proud mother is Mrs. Lulu Hobbs,
twenty six years old, of 762 Fifth Avenue, Brooklyn. Dr. Holmes of Hudson
Street Hospital was summoned to attend Mrs. Hobbs in the ladies' waiting room
in the New York end of the big structure, and therefore, the surgeon claims, the
boy is a Greater New Yorker. Mother and child are at the Hudson Street Hospital
and are doing well. | |

Caring For Immigrants
New Arrangements in consequence of Yesterday Morning's Fire on Ellis Island.
Inspections On The Piers
No Life Lost and Nobody Hurt-The Government's Loss About $500,000
-Immediate Appropriation for New Buildings Expected.
The destruction of the Government buildings on Ellis Island, used for the reception and
inspection of immigrants, will cause inconvenience, but no serious loss, except to the
Government. Arrangements have already been made under which it is believed that the
immigration machinery will work smoothly and rapidly.
Commissioner General of Immigration Stump arrived here yesterday afternoon from
Washington, and at 7 o'clock last night was on the island, after a conference with Dr. Senner, the
Immigration commissioner for this port. When he returned from the island Col. Stump said he
was convinced that the management of the fire, the conduct of all the officials on the island, and
the arrangements already made for the future were all admirable. They received his full approval,
and were, in his opinion, creditable to all concerned.
Many steamships are due this week, and they have more than 7,000 immigrants aboard. The
Friesland with 170, the Ems with 456, and the Aurania with about 100 are expected to-day.
Commissioner Senner has arranged to have each vessel met at her own dock by an ample force of
his men. The inspections will be conducted on the piers. Acceptable immigrants will be passed
immediately. The sick will be sent tot he city hospitals, those with contagious diseases or
requiring disinfection going to Quarantine. Those detained will be lodged in the barge office at
the Battery.
Loss Not Over $500,000
Commissioner General Stmup[sic] thinks the loss will not exceed $500,000. He will ask
Congress for an immediate special appropriation of that amount for new buildings. He has no
doubt that it will be granted, especially as the Immigration Bureau has always been self-supporting. It has now $225,000 to its credit unexpended.
This balance, the Commissioner said, will not be used for new buildings, but he is sure that the
bureau can easily and quickly repay any money given for such purpose if required to do so. The
Commissioner added that so far as he has influence he will insist that the new buildings be brick
or stone and as nearly fireproof as it is possible to make them.
Like Commissioner General Stump, Commissioner Senner is delighted with the conduct of his
subordinates on the island and with the general management of the affair. Dr. Senner was on the
scene soon after 1 o'clock yesterday morning, and took personal charge. He says everything had
been so well done, however, that he had only to look after the details. The closest inquiry shows
that not a life was lost, and that not one person was injured or suffered serious bodily harm.
How the Fire Started.
The fire was discovered at 12:38 o'clock by Watchman Gaines. There were 191 immigrants on
the island, 55 of them in the hospital and 136 in the dormitories, including several Hindus and a
number of Mormon girls. The night force of officials and helpers consisted of Superintendent
Burke and 6 regular and 2 temporary watchmen, 2 engineers, 4 firemen, 2 laborers, a matron, an
apothecary, a cook, 2 doctors, 3 hospital nurses, 3 railroad watchmen in care of the baggage, and
3 employes[sic] of the restaurant.
The steamer John G. Carlisle lay at the ferry slip with steam up, as she is required by her
contract to do, and three watchmen on duty. She was connected with the buildings by an electric
alarm wire, according to rules. Dr. Senner said yesterday that he had always known the big
building to be a fire trap, and had taken all those precautions for that reason. The building was
supplied with automatic sprinklers and many fire plugs, with regulation rubber hose and nozzles
attached, and an ample supply of water from the steam pumps in the power house, but no
confidence was felt in these arrangements.
When Watchman Gaines, who was in the main building, was led to the fire by the smell of
smoke, he saw a blaze in the tower nearest the Battery. The statistics branch of the
Superintendent's office, containing many papers, was there. By the time he had shouted "Fire!"
and run to give the alarm, the flames were racing along the walls and floors up stairs.
He does not definitely know where the fire originated, and in what place. Both Col. Stump and
Dr. Senner are in the same plight. "We have no theories," said the Colonel, and so far as I know
now an investigation into the cause will be useless. There is nothing to investigate."
Saving the Immigrants.
The night force immediately began work. Superintendent Burke led some of them into the
dormitories, and the sleeping people were aroused. There were symptoms of panic and hysteria at
first, but they were sternly repressed. Mr. Burke knows just enough Italian to say "come quick."
Most of the immigrants were Italians. As a group was aroused and dressed, it was put in charge
of a man who led, drove, or pushed it down to the boat.
At the hospital the nurses, doctor, and attendants worked like machines. There was not a word or
exclamation to excite or alarm the patients. All were thoroughly wrapped up before being lifted
or assisted out. E.R. Brandow and George B. Emmons of the Carlisle were the litter bearers, and
they carried patient after patient to the boat without even jostling one of them. The long shed
leading to the ferry slip sucked in the fire from the main building and was soon ablaze. It was
pulled and pushed, and fell down, and the patients were carried out over it, although its tin roof
was nearly red hot.
By 1 o'clock the last person was safe. Dr. White's family, in the surgeon's quarters, was the last
gotten away. It consisted of two ladies, several children, and a servant. Much of Dr. White's
furniture was removed. The removal of the immigrants to the boat did not take more than
seventeen minutes.
Lines of hose were run ashore from the fireboats and steamers, and firemen fought the flames
until daylight. The electric light and steam plant was saved without a scorch. The surgeon's
quarters are standing and can be restored. The walls of the record office and kitchen are standing.
Everything else is ruin-a tangle of charcoal, battered and rusted iron, and ashes, from which
smoke was still lazily rising in clouds all day yesterday.
Most of the Records Recovered.
Commissioner Senner was surprised and delighted to find yesterday afternoon that fully two-thirds of the records in the records office had been found, more or less damaged, but yet useful.
The safe of the railroad office was opened, and all the paper money in it, estimated at $200, was
found to be destroyed beyond hope of redemption. The silver and gold were melted, and all the
papers were gone. On the other hand, the safe in the money exchange office of F.J. Scully had
kept its contents, probably$6,000 or more, intact. Not a paper or note was even scorched, and
coins of many nations were taken out in tin pans and dumped into bags as good as when they left
the mints.
There were many small individual losses, none of them, of course, covered by insurance. All the
minor officials lost their uniforms, some of them just purchased, which had been left in the
building.
Of the 136 people taken from the island, the 55 sick were sent to Bellevue, 69 were released and
went to their friends, 22 were sent off on outgoing steamers, 33 men who have been excluded or
are detained are quartered in the upper story of the Barge Office, 12 women and children, who
are detained are comfortable at the House of Our Lady of Hope, which also sent cots for the men.
Leo House also offered accommodations, and gifts of clothing from several sources have made
all the rescued people fairly comfortable. It is not likely that any of their losses are very serious,
as most of them carry their money and valuables on their persons. Commissioner Senner said last
night that those who lost baggage will probably be paid for it by the Government.

Notice to Mariners.
New York, June 15.-Lightship No. 51, that lies off Sandy Hook, was

Another vessel replaces her in the meantime.
Miscellaneous
London, June 15.-The brig Henry B. Cleaves, Capt. Nelson, Previously
reported arrived at St. Jago, Cape Verde, May 16, after having been ashore, had
her rudder slightly damaged. Repairs have been made, and she has proceeded to
St. Vincent, Cape Verde. Her cargo was found to be undamaged.
London, June 15.-The British steamer Ohio, from Rotterdam for Montreal,
since she has been beached at Sinclair Bay, after being ashore, as previously
reported, is having temporary repairs made by divers. She will go to Sunderland
as soon as the weather becomes fine.
London, June 15.-The British steamer Victoria, Capt. Blakey, which arrived
here the 13th from Montreal, reports that on June 3, in lat. 46, long. 47, twenty-four large icebergs were sighted.
Granton, June 15.-The British steamer Cyril, Capt. Davis, from New York May
24, which arrived here to-day, reports having, on June 1, in lat. 46, long. 41,
passed a derelict brig, dismasted and mostly submerged.
Omaha, Neb., June 15.-The officials of the Union Pacific Railroad have
received a communication from Eugene V. Debs relative to his co-operative
commonwealth scheme. The proposition must be reviewed by the General
Manager's Office. Debs desires a large concession of land, embracing many
hundreds of acres. The railroad company has plenty of land in that country, yet
the kind Debs wants suitable for an agricultural community, as well as
commercial enterprises, is valuable and on the market at good figures. The
matter of transportation for the members of Debs's company will be arranged as
with any other colony desiring sales but with the land-donation proposition it is
different. It is and always has been the policy of the Union Pacific Company to
donate lands for colonies to a limited extent, and to encourage immigration by
such means along its lines, but the Debs scheme is much more elaborate than the
company has ever been called upon to deal with before.
Shot For A Horse Thief
Thatcher, an Advertising Solicitor, Killed Near Indianapolis.
Indianapolis, June 15.-James Thatcher, an advertising solicitor, was killed this
morning by Harvey Leonard, a farmer, west of this city. Thatcher in company

Leonard said he thought they were horse thieves, and he pursued and shot
Thatcher with a shotgun.
Fighting Over Car Fares.
The City of Indianapolis Indicates Its Line of Defense.
Indianapolis, June 15.-The city indicated its course to-day in the three-cent street
car entanglement by filing a motion in the Federal Court to dissolve Judge
Showaiter's temporary injunction. A demurrer was also filed by the city against
the complaint of the Central Trust Company. In this the city raises the question
of jurisdiction of the Federal Court, and pleads that the facts stated are not
sufficient to constitute a cause of action.
A copy of the recent decision by the Indiana Supreme Court sustaining the three-cent law was filed with the moti on and demurrer.
He Painted Harvard's Statue
Howard Dunning of Cedarhurst, L.I., Publishes a Confession.
Cambridge, Mass., June 15.-Howard Dunning of Cedarhurst, L.I., a first-year
special student, has confessed to the desecration of the pedestal of the statue of
John Harvard on May 29 in a public letter. He says: "I sign this letter with my
name, as I cannot face the position of sneaking through college life with such a
concealment.
"I love Harvard, and I worked hard there. I painted the score upon the pedestal of
the statue of John Harvard, but I never intended it for desecration, although I
now feel that the student sentiment was just. After some time I may wish to visit
the university; if so I should have no pleasure in meeting friends whom I thought
would not be friends if they knew the truth. I should rather have the friendship
of one fellow in the university who knew of this act and forgot it than the
friendship of the whole university, if this friendship was based on ignorance of
the fact."
The Delehanty Inquiry.
Boston Commissioner of Immigration Charged with Intoxication.
Boston, June 15.-An investigation to determine the grounds for charges

quarrels alleged to have taken place between the Commissioner and the
members of his force.
Washington, June 15.-The resignation of Mr. Delehanty, the Immigration

Delehanty is under investigation, no action will be taken by the department until
the report of the investigation is received.

securing more stringent laws against mob violence.
The incorporators are from the home city of Gov. Bushnell, who has been
severely criticised[sic] by the colored population of the State for an alleged
indecision which resulted in the deaths of two innocent persons.
No More Indian Polygamy.
Cheyenne Squaws Greatly Excited Over the Situation.
Perry, Oklahoma, June 15.-The Cheyenne and Arapahoe Indians are wrought up
over the new law which goes into effect July 1 relating to polygamy. After that
time each of the forty Cheyenne Indians who has more than one wife will have
to choose one of the two, three, or five wives that he has, and the cast-off wives
must go back to their relatives.
The interest among the squaws, who have become enlightened to their situation,
has become intense. Every squaw who wants to remain with her husband is
doing her best to please him; that she will be the lucky wife. There are forty of
these polygamists, and in all they have over 100 squaws.

Carolina Dispensary Law.

a magistrate, and his store closed up. This action is taken under Section 22 of the
Dispensary law, which declares that any place other than a State dispensary in
which liquors are sold shall be considered a public nuisance. It is probable that
the case is made to test the validity of the "Original Package" decision recently
issued in the United States courts.

the title, and the paragraphs of the preamble were seconded by an apparent
majority of the delegates. The project will be taken up piece by piece after the
constitution of the new organization is settled upon.

Settling The Immigrants.
Arranging Accommodations at Barge Office-Government Will Reimburse
Losers by Ellis Island Fire.
The immigration officials were busy all day yesterday settling their new official
household in the Barge Office. The day and night Customs Inspectors have
doubled up, and the detained immigrants are distributed in what were formerly
used as offices. The Shipping Commissioner and Matron Boyle are still in their
old quarters.
Superintendent Hickey of the seizure rooms has contracted his quarters so as to
have space sufficient only for valuables. Other abandoned or seized goods will
be placed in storage, excepting perishable goods, which will be sold at once on
the piers.
Several of the damaged safes were brought over from Ellis Island yesterday.
There were 489 immigrants on the Aurania, Bremen, and Trave, which arrived
yesterday morning. They were passed upon at the respective piers, and only
those who were held for examination by the Board of Special Inquiry, fifty in
number, were taken to the Barge Office.
The eight Hindu itinerant merchants whose goods were destroyed in the fire at
Ellis Island were informed that the Government would recompense them for
their loss, as it will all who lost clothes and baggage.
It will be two weeks before the bureau will be settled, and the arrangements will
be made on the presumption that it will take a year to rehabilitate Ellis Island. |

Trying A Submarine Boat.
Mr. Raddatz Gets Improved Results and Avoids Using Coal.
Oshkosh, Wis., June 18.-The Raddatz submarine boat, elongated and with
stronger machinery, was launched to-day, and made a successful trip. It was
found necessary, after a number of trips had been made, the first time she was
put into the water, to add to the dimensions of the boat in order that more
powerful propelling machinery might be carried.
Mr. Raddatz has been in Milwaukee for some time building a large engine of his
own invention, to which power can be applied without the use of coal. Thus the
smoke is done away with while the boat is submerged. The various parts of the
propelling gear, after being set up in the engine shops of E.P. Allis & Co., in
Milwaukee, were packed in small boxes and shipped to this city. The boxes were
not opened until safely deposited inside the cigar-shaped hull, in order that
prying investigators might not learn of Mr. Raddatz's valuable secret.
Saving Mount Washington.
How New England People May Keep the Axe from Their Forests.
Boston, Mass., June 18.-The announcement that one of the great lumbering
concerns in Northern New Hampshire had added to its already enormous
holdings by the purchase of Mount Washington has caused much lament at the
prospective denuding of the mountain of its forests. It appears, however, that
these fears are groundless. The company, which has come into possession not
only of Mount Washington, but of the entire Presidential Range, the Bartlett
Lumber Company, shares the regard felt by the community at large for the
monarch of the White Hills, and desires to co-operate in saving it.
Manager Smith of the company proposes a popular syndicate for the purchase of
the mountain-in fact, of the entire Presidential Range-whereby the axe will be
averted and the mountains be preserved in their grandeur. His idea is for every
person in New England to put in a dollar, thus rasing a fund of $5,000,000,
wherewith to accomplish the purchase of the 70,000 acres comprised in the
range. Mr. Smith is not exactly decided in his plan. In fact, the wish is at present
father to the thought, but he is in earnest in the idea and hopes to see it carried
out in the near future.
Very Hot In St. Louis.
Temperature 96 at 4 O'clock in the Afternoon-Heat Prostrations.
St. Louis, June 18.-At noon the temperature was 92, and at 4 P.M. It was 96.
Since Thursday noon the city ambulances have had fifty-two calls for heat
victims. The nights remain hot and to this are charged many cases of prostration.
Eleven persons were overcome by heat to-day, and all the cases are serious. The
names are: Charles Boet; C.O. Bach; Hattie Grant; George Reifschneider; Henry
Schirmer; Thomas Caine; Henry Haldenburger; Henry Wisezski; Chris
Haberburger; August Seehausen; and G.W. Moore.
Traffic In Children
Chicago, June 18.-Mrs. Lizzie Murphy of 784 Van Buren Street came into the
County Court to-day to assert her claims to the custody of a little girl, and in
doing so makes charges against Robert Curran of New York City which are
looked upon here as serious. Her story, which is believed here by the Visitation
and Aid Society and the Humane Society as well, is that Curran brings children
from New York, finds homes for those he can, and, after selling the most
desirable, leaves the rest at 113 Adams Street.
Mrs. Murphy answered an advertisement by Curran, and got into communication
with him. She says he referred her to 113 Adams Street, and told her to make her
choice of the children she found there. Those she saw there were below three
years of age, and not the sort she wished to adopt. Curran then told her of
Charles Casey, who, he said, could supply the child she wanted.
Sure enough, she found a girl, May, and took her home. Curran told her no
references would be necessary. Three days later Curran, she says, came with a
demand for $6. She paid $2 and promised the rest. She did not see him for two
years.
Eighteen months afterward Casey got possession of the child. When she wrote to
Curran he told her that if she paid the $4 she would not have lost the child. He
agreed, however, to furnish another; also that she must meet him at the station
with $6. Mrs. Murphy introduced a letter to prove that May was cruelly treated.
She says Curran carries a card of the New York Foundling and Orphans' Home.
Hearing in the case was deferred until next Friday.
There is no New York Foundling and Orphans' Home, although institution s
with names very similar are in existence. The New York Foundling Asylum is at
175 East Sixty-eighth Street. The New York Orphan Asylum is at Riverside
Avenue and West Seventy-third Street.
Winnipeg School Question.
Canadian Minister Leaves Ottawa to Effect a Settlement.
Ottawa, Ontario, June 18.-Clifford Sifton, Minister of the Interior, left for
Winnipeg this afternoon. It is understood that he goes in connection with the
school question. When Merry Del Val, the Papal delegate, was in Winnipeg, he
pressed on the Catholic clergy the desirability of accepting the school settlement.
They have agreed to do so, provided they can get one further concession. It is to
see if this can be done that Mr. Sifton has gone West to see the Provincial
Government. If possible the concession will be made, so that the schools may be
satisfactory to all parties. Just what point the Catholics want cannot be learned.
But it is said that it does not in any way make any departure from the public
school system. Premier Greenway has always said that he would be willing to do
anything that he could to assist the Catholics, providing they accepted the
common schools.
Capt. Hart Surrendered.
Bondsman of the Laurada's Captain Asks to be Relieved.
Philadelphia, Penn., June 18.-Capt. John D. Hart, convicted of filibustering in
connection with the steamer Laurada, who was admitted to bail pending an
appeal for a new trial, was surrendered to-day by Robert J. Barr, one of his
bondsmen.
The petition in which Barr asked to be relieved as surety was heard before
Judges Butler and Dallas in the Circuit Court of Appeals, and was granted. Hart
was remanded in custody of the United States Marshal pending the acceptance of
new bail. |
