THIRTY KILLED IN FIRE CAUSE OF DESTRUCTION OF MONTREAL HERALD Gas Tank in Basement Exploded and Large Water Tank on Roof Fell Through Four Stories.��� Herald Ninety Years Old. Montreal, June 14. ��� Investigation shows that the cause of the fire in the Herald building was the breaking clown of the supports of a watertank fire protection system. The tank crashed through four floors, causing the explosion of the gas plant and the conflagration. Thirty pressmen and girls were instantly killed and others of the employees were badly injuredr It was a five-storey structure, standing on James Street and fronting Victoria Square, and was replete with all the modern requirements of a daily newspaper of the first class. The Herald was founded in 1801, and during the present generation especially has been one of the leading journals of the Dominion. Notwithstanding the fire, it was published this morning, with a complete account of the disaster. The editetial and business staffs all escaped, but there may be other bodies still buried in the ruins. The fire was only put out after an exhausting all-day fight, There were many thrilling episodes and many narrow escapes. Fred. Vidal, stereotyper, was caught under a girder and both legs and several ribs were broken. He was pinned helpless and the flames were rapidly approaching. His rescuers labored furiously in their race with the fire. All seemed hopeless. Father Marsin went through the seething flames to administer the last sacrament to the imprisoned and apparently dying man. Just then the heavy beam pinning him was severed and he was saved. Mr. Fitzmaurice, formerly cartoonist on the Vancouver Province, came within an ace of being killed. Isabella Phillips, formerly of Vancouver, was among those killed in the bindery department.

An elaborate affair is being planned for the formal opening of the club house, which will occur sometime during July.

Wallace summoned Johnson to his assistance and the latter was deliberately shot and instantly killed by Yeager. Yeagef also fired several shots into the crowd, that gathered but no one was injured. FINED $300 AND COSTS C. CHRISTIANSEN SOLD LIQUOR ILLEGALLY AND WAS CAUCHT This Is the First Conviction Under the City's Liquor License By-law��� Case Waa an Important One to " Blind Pig" Operators. Magistrate Carss this morning imposed a fine of $500 and costs upon Chris. Christiansen, proprietor of the Western cigar store, for illegally selling spirituous liquor, or. in other words, keeping a "blind pig." This is the first case of the kind under the city's by-law and is of the utmost importance. It will tend to influence the other blind pig men to a large extent. Chief McCarvel laid the complaint, and succeeded in getting a conviction. On Saturday night last Constable Regan saw a man coming out of Christiansen's place and he had two bottles of whisky. For these the man paid 50c and $2.00. The witnesses for the Crown were Chief McCarvel, Constable Regan and the purchaser of the goods. In defence Christiansen said he did not sell the liquor and never sold any. He had some liquor on hand, which he gave away to those who deeded it. He would not sell it. He received it from friends of his without price. The magistrate did not taki kindly to the novel defense, and imposed the above fine. If the fine is not paid, the city is entitled to redress; and if the redress is not sufficient to satisfy the fine, then the defendant will spena two months in the common jail. The fine provided in the by-law is $250 and the license fee of $150 for bottle license, making a total of $400 for the extreme penalty. As this was the first case, His Worship made the fine $300. YOUR ASSESSMENT Does not have to be Placed on the Telephone Petition It will no longer be necessary to place the assessed value of the property owned on the Telephone Petition opposite the signiture of the signers. All that is necessary is to put down the number of lots owned. Aid. Pattullo ' and Aid. Mobley suggested that some one circulate the petition as that was the only way ten per cent of the property owners could be secured. Hamilton's Quick Flight Philadelphia, June 14.���Charles K.

Pattullo suggested to the council last night that the government be asked to place on sale the unsold lots in the sections that have already been sold. If the city decides upon frontage tax for improvements the government would pay no taxes. In that case the owners of property adjoining government lots would refuse to sign any petition and no improvements would be made. Aid. Smith and Aid. Pattullo moved the the deputation to Victoria take up the matter of selling the remainder of lots in section one, with the Premier and cabinet when they go down next week.
