Fargo, ND Hotel Fire, June 1897
HEADQUARTERS HOTEL AT FARGO, N. D., DESTROYED.
Fargo, N. D., June 14. -- The Headquarters hotel, the oldest hostelry in the state, was totally destroyed by fire at 6 p. m. The ticket office and waiting rooms of the Northern Pacific were also burned. A lucky change in the direction of the wind undoubtedly saved the city from another great disaster.
