Handwritten on the back, "Fire at 2nd & Washington. Time: 3:00. Sept 1905. Time I, Stop 16." Photo shows several buildings on fire. From a sign on the side of one it is an iron works facility. A group of men are standing in the street in front of the buildings. A fire hose is stretched up the street and a group of men are spraying water on one of the buildings. Several pieces of furniture are sitting on the sidewalk across from the burning buildings presumably the pieces came from the burning buildings.
