The front page has a two column headline: "15 Dead, 22 Missing as Fire Sweeps Hotel at Dubuque" with subhead. (see) Article continues on page three with related photo. 1st report coverage on the Canfield Hotel fire disaster in Dubuque Iowa. Always nice to have notable events in history reported in this famous New York City publication.
Other news, sports and advertisements of the day. Complete in 44 pages, this is the rare rag edition that was produced on very high quality newsprint, with a high percentage of cotton & linen content, allowing the issues to remain very white & sturdy into the present. Given the subscription cost, libraries & institutions rather than individuals were the primary subscribers of these high-quality editions. Great condition.
