8 SWEPT AWAY' BY BAD FIRE, Two of of the Finest of Ma con’s Business Houses Burned this Morning. MAGNIFICENT PYROTECHNICS Not on the Program for the Carni val—Everything is Covered by Insurance—Details of Fire. Fire broke out this morning a few min utes before 1 ©’■clock in the three-story building on Third street occupied by the Winn-Johnson crax-ker and candy factory, owned by Mrs. Curd. In a few. seconds after the discovery of the fire and the turning in of the alarm from the box on the corner of Third and Mulberry street flames broke from the rear end of the building and greedily licked with forked tongues the wall on the east side and next to the alley. The department made a grand run, but the fire must have been smouldering for some time before it was discovered, for it ■was easily seen that it had great headway on the inside W the building and that nothing on earth could save the building. Great volumes of smoke rolled from the windows in the front and the crash of falling glass, the rush of the water, the cries of the excited crowd and the shriek- of a few exhilirated Carnival visitors who were more than pleased at this addi tion to the program, made the first mo ments of the fire intensely gloomy and ominous. The town had not yet gone to rest after a day of excitement. Hundreds of belated visitors were on the streets and others were quickly summoned from the many places where the midnight oil is burned and pleasure has its sway. The great floral ball was at its height, and even the illumination of the city and the most magnificent pyrotechnic display not advertised, but thrown in gratis, only drew away comparatively few from the enticing mazes of the german. ißut a few of the dancers were out and added to the peculiar beauty of the scene when the great black masses of smoke burst into a brilliant column of light, lighting up the sea of faces making up the mob of every class and every station that filled the streets and the sidewalks and the parks for a block. After the first burst of flame the fire was fierce and strong. It broke out in every direction and stretched its greedy tongue out toward the old Floyd House across the corner, where the frightened Italians, whose peculiar habitation it is, were gath ered and huddled itj a frightened group. Then the flames reached the store of fire works. A great bomb gave the signal and the battle of Manila, of San Juan Heights and of Omdurman were as nothing to the fusilade. Rockets, careless of thejr direction, sped skyward or down into the depths of the ocean of flame. Devils among the Tailors shrieked and whistled, popped and roared in a demonia cal fury and ten thousand crackers snap ped and barked upon the third story,where they had been stored for the coming of Christmas. As the larger bombs exploded showers of sparks rose in great columns against the black night sky and the flames an swered with a sullen roar. In twenty minutes the interior of the building was gutted and nothing practi cally but the wall remained. Then the wall next to the alley fell with a crash and a shriek from a frightened Italian rose above the noise of everything as part of the outer wall of the old Floyd house went with it. Speculation ran rife as to the safety of the building: that occupied by Mr. T. C. Burke. It was thought that the fire ! wall would save it, but this hope was ' doomed to die. for slowly little puffs of : smoke came from the crevices, then in greater volumes from the roof and a little light, more, more, ending with a crash of | breaking glass and a volume of smoke and flame. • j Now was the time for the department to | get’ in its best work, and it rose to the ! occasion nobly. Everyone thought that ' the re«t of the block must go and the ■ American national bank was put down as a loss. Well directed streams of water were put into the upper stories and it was seen that they were holding the flames in che-’k. But from the fourth story to the third and from the third to the second the fierce and persistent flames made their way until at last it was seen that water had won the fight and that the rest'of the j blocjt was safe. At 2:30 o'clock it was shown that there was no more danger and that the fire had done its worst, but the streams were kept going until well into the morning. The fire originated in the bakery of the cracker factory but the exact cause is not known. The Winn-Johnson store is a complete , loss with all the stock. The bivlding was the property of Mrs. Curd and the stock was valued at $50,000. The Burke building is the property of Mr T. C. Burke, and while it is not thought that the whole of the stock is a loss very little will be saved. The loss will be about $75,000 altogether and tne insurance is ample. The members of the firms were so oc cupied this morning that they were un able to make an estimate of the values, but it is probable that the insurance com panies will have to bear the brunt of it. Following is the insurance as given to the News by the agents: With Legare Walker —Winn-Johnson Co., Caledonia. $1,000; T. C. Burke, Nia gara. SI,OOO. With J. S. Budd & Co.—Winn-Johnson Co., stock.

NEW ROAD Will Soon Be Running Through from Macon to Valdosta. Atlanta, Oct. 13.—1 n sixty day a new route will be completed into Jacksonville, Fla. This is the line which is being built from Valdosta to Jacksonville and known as the Jacksonville, Valdosta and Western. More than 600 men are at work grading and laying track. The grading will soon be completed into Valdosta, and the gen eral manager, Mr. E. C. Long, expects to have trains running through from Valdos ta to Jacksonville in December. It has been reported in the lower part of the state that this line is backed by the Georgia Southern and Florida, but there is no positive evidence going to show that. It does look, however, as though the new line would make the Georgia Southern and Florida a strong connection. 'Seventy pound steel rails are being laid on the road bed and the construction is high class. The line will be 107 miles long, and will be almost an air line.. A part of it was originally a lumber road built by George S. Baxter & Co., a firm engaged in getting out crossties. Mr. E. C. Long, a member of the firm, is vice president and general manager of the new railroad company. By extending their road they open up a new timber country, and they wil also give a very desirable outlet to Jackson ville. Although the trains will not be running through for two months yet, the ompany publishes a map and time table in the Standard Guide, giving the schedule for the whole line from one terminal to the other. The map in the guide gives the impres sion that the company proposes to build on to Chicago and have an air line to the northwest, but that part of the program will probably be deferred for the present. iMr. Walter Ferguson, of 18 Wall street. New York, is president of the company. Mr. Ferguson is interested in other rail roads in the South, among them the At lanta, Knoxville and Northern. SOUTHERN REVIEW Will Publish a BeautifOl History of the Car nival. One of the most interested spectators in Macon this week is Mr. 'Bruce Armstrong, the proprietor of that sterling magizine.

It is a standard size magazine, printed upon the ' style of paper used by the Century and Harper's and its picture process is superior to anything used in the South. Its next i edition will consist of 50.000 copies. The I Review is a literary venture upon legiti mate lines. Its advertisement of Macon is free of cost to any one in the city. The November issue will also contaifi a short memorial article upon. Winnie Davis by Mr. Edwards. NO BETTERMENT In the Yellow Fever Situation Is Shown In Mississippi. By Associated Press. Jackson.

The production of last night was far superior to that of the night before. Every thing was in better shape and several new features were added which caught the crowd. The number of people at the grounds last night was the largest ever gathered togeth er in Macon. Fully a thousand were turn ed away and twice that many were unable to find seats and it was necesasry to use the members of the First Georgia regiment as sentinels to keep the crowds back. The -pictures Admiral Dfwey and Lieu tenant Hobson were shown and drew forth much applause from the spectators. The production tonight will far exceed that of the previous nights and the crowds will no doubt be larger. The management of the street car line deserves much credit for the excellent manner in which they have handled the crowds. At the fireworks several people have been robbed of valuables.
