The Long Beach Hotel was built sev. eral years ago and cost $800,000. It was a structure, built of wood, nearly 1,200 feet long. It stood facing south, about 300 yards from the waler. on the island of Long Beach, an eight- iiiue sinp lying Dei ween lar Kockawav and Fire Island.

The capacity of the hotel alone was about 1,100 guests. There is besides a line of cottages, running east from the hotel for a mile along the seaside. Long Beach, further from town than such resorts as Coney Island and Rocka-way, has been designed rather as something in the line of Atlantic Oity. and drawing the same class of guests. The Long Beach Development Company, at present owning the place, was formed in April of the nresent year with a capital of $0,000,000.

Tt took over the hotel at a cost of $200,000, and planned great developments. The property includes ownership of the island to the west and a thirty-year lease of the portion to the east The president or the new company Is former Senator William H. Reynolds. Other officers associated In the ownership are Frank Bailey, of the Title Guarantee Trust Company, iee-president, and Remsen Johnson, of the Jere Johnson Company. Senator Patrick H.

Mc-Carren. Henry Morgenthau and others are said to be deeply Interested. It was said at the time the deal was made that the Long Island Railroad wanted to double track the entire distance to the beach and make the run from the new Pennsylvania depot In New York In forty minutes. It wss even said that $10,000,000 would be spout on the stretch of beach, which was to have boardwalk, cottages and hotels for its entire length. Steamboats were to run on the inside route.

BROOKLYN MEN HARD HIT BY LONG BEACH DISASTER. The hotel was seven stories high, and had a frontage of 1,000 feet on the ocean. It had a promenade veranda along the entire front of the hotel. This wns the longest promenade of any hotel in the country. The fire will prove a severe blow to a group of prominent Brooklyn real estate operators.

Headed by former Senator Reynolds, they bought the property last year and organized the estates of Long Beach. It was planned to develop another Atlantic City. Contracts had been let for building a five-mile concrete bulkhead nnd boardwalk. Associated with Mr. Reynolds were Senator McCarren.

Frank Bailey. George F. Dobson and Henry Morgenthau. The Long Beach Hotel was built In 18S0 by a company headed by William Lnffan, of the New York "Suq." Associated with him were a nnmber of liter- -ary men who made Long Beach a prominent literary settlement. In 1884 the company failed, and was continued under the receivership of Col.

H. P. Chapman, father of the cottager who was burnt out to-day. Later Paul C. Ames was made the receiver, and the hotel continued under his management until lust when Mr.

Reynolds bought the property. Mr. Ames was put In charge of the real estate development, the company beginning the erection of a number of new cottages, and William' Johnson Quinn wns made manager of the hotel. The twenty-one cottages which were endangered by the fire were part of the original construction, being built in 1880 by the original company. That concern also built a railroad from Millbrook to Long Beach, which is now a part of the Long IslHiid Railroad system.

The total expenditure by the original company was $1,450,000. GAS CO. WINS A POINT. Attorney General Jackson met a setback to-day in his effort to annul the charter of the Consolidaed Gas Company on the ground that it is a trust nnd operated under charters which expired many years ago. Judge McCall, of the Supreme Court denied Jack son Js application for pertnls sion to bring suit to annual the contested charters.

Instantly the head of every family within hearing aeenied to begin tiring' a revolver, thinking they had thus giveu warning that their homes were guarded.

The authors of the fusillade then retired to their rooms and closed and locked the doors. The Italian tenants of the doomed 1ii.ii. rushed into the halls, but were iiiHtautly driven bark by the burst of tiames.

About 2iKt were made homeless by the fire, which destroyed not only their lodgings, but all their possessions. If the tenants of the burned buildings behaved with exceptional cowardice, the firemen and police appeared to unusual advantage. It wns impossible to reach several of the fire-escapes except by forming living chains from the windows of adjoining buildings, and by this means many persons were swung at a dizzy height from the fire-escapes of the Homing structure to safety.

The rescuers themselves were licked by the flames as they worked. On some of the ladders two firemen would climb up together, one crushing himself against the side to give his comrade room. In this way the rescues were effected with remarkable rapidity. The building wns reduced to smouldering heap in a little more than an hour, but such was the heat that it has been as yet impossible to make a thorough search for more bodies. The ambulance surgeons were swamped by the throng of patients, and several sufferers were compelled to lie in the street until they could be taken to hospitals.

Ada Lamonti. who will probably die. is supposed to have fallen from the fire-escae at the rear of the building. She was badly burned, sustained fractures of both let's, and was internallv injured. She lay unconscious in a heap of boxes and rubbish for four hours before she was found.

Italian detectives were rushed to the scene to investigate the cause of the tire. They report positively that it was of incendiary oricin, adding that many of the tenants of the have been terrorized by the Black Hand. The police and tire departments join in reporting the tenement hojise a veritable fire trap. They say the flames fairly leaped from bottom to top of the building, that the means of escape were inadequate and that the construct was so flimsy its to offer not the slightest obstacle to the spread of the flames. I The question of the Tenement House I lepartniptil responsibility for sucn conditions has already been brought to Mayor McClcllan's attention, and a rigorous investigation will be ordered.

F.H. SMITH i HIS WIFE EACH ACCUSE THrOTHER Husband Charged With Abandonment and Other Offenses. I'red II. Smith, a real estate broker of Nip. I'mirf street, after deposing to ninny reninrkable nrts on the part of his wife, V.

He renewed his intimacy with the woman, she asserts, notwithstanding, and lived with her at two places in Brook lyn. The defendant denies all his wife's allegations except the marriage. He deposes that "he is now summering at Millbrook, Dutchess County, at his ex pensc while he is in arrears for rent lie swears that he was never infatuated with Mrs. Collingsworth. The defendant comes out boldly here and aavs tnat nia wite Has ingratiated herself with a man of wealth and leisure named Thomas H.

United States Marshal Mayhew broke open the doors, and with men he Impressed into strvice, dragged out all of the postoffice property. Later this was inventoried and it was found that not even a penny stamp was missing. The fixed property of the office was badly damaged, but some of it can be used in the temporary office which G.

His castle-like dancing hall, built of steel, defied the flames but his bathing pavilion in the rear and hie laundry next door went up in flames.

It was largely dae to the non-inflammability of the dance hall that the fire went no further in this direction. The blase did not last long. By 6 o'clock It was out. Only the smouldering embers were left. They proved a potent attraction to the crowds later in the day These were the persona hurt and missing after the fire: John Flynn.

OUTING OF 12TH A. D.

DEMS. TO BE HELD AT DREAMLAND. Miles from the scene of the Coney Island fire yesterday the influenco of that conflagration was felt, and more than a score of men working industriously all day and most of the night to repair the damage which the fire had done to their plans. The men who were so affected by the happenings at the seashore were the officers and committeemen of the Twelfth Assembly District Regular Democratic Club, which was to have held its first annual beach party at Steeplechase Park to-morrow. Just as soon fcs it was known that Steeplechase was in ruins steps were taken to transfer the ottting to some other amusement resort, and before the ired officers went to bed last night they had completed all arrangements for holding the outing at Dreamland.

It waj a strenuous Sunday for Michael E. Butler, the district leader, and all his assistants. Early in the morning, as soon a he beard of the fire, Mr. Butler hurried to the Island to verify the reports. He was soon satisfied that the Steeplechase management was unnhle to fulfil its contract with the Twelfth District Democrats, and he hastened to Dreamland to consult former Sheriff William J.

Buttling, manager of that park. Mr. Buttling readily agreed to take the big outing party, and arrangements were made to give the Butlerites admission to Dreamland and to six of the attractions for the price of the Steeplechase ticket, 25 cents. It was agreed that the Dreamland management should print, the tickets and have them ready by" Tuesday noon, when they would be exchanged for the Steeplechase tickets at a special booth to be stationed at the entrance of the park. This arranged, Mr.

Bntler hurried back to the city and found a printer who could call his employees together for Sutidav work. The Dresses were soon busy printing notices of the change, to be sent to the members of the club. In the meantime officers of the club had been summoning the committeemen by telephone, and by noon many willing workers were at the clubhouse. No. 31 19 Ninth street.

A few took charge of changing the big banner in front of the mbhouse, on wntcti tne outing is adver tised, but most of them were set to work addressing envelopes. The club has more than 2,000 members, and it was thought proper to send the notices to all. Hundreds of envelopes were addressed and stamped before the circulars, began to arrive from the printer. All evening long the circularswith the ink still wet. were toiaea ana manea.

ine work am not stop until the entire membershin list had been cared for, and when at last the clubhouse was darkened for the night the leader and his lieutenants' had the satisfaction of knowing that the big outing -would come off as smoothly as if the tire had not occurred. EH ENDS LIFE BY HANGING Miss Limbacher's Suicide Fol lows Despondent Spell.
