FURTHER PARTICULARS OF THE EXCHANGE
HOTEL FiEC.-is now appears that the fire in
the rear portion Of the Exchange Hotel yes
terdav morning originated from q defective
iluc IN the laundry department, which Is IN
the basement. 1t was ut one time thought
that the fire was the work Of an incendiary.
1t being 10 the basement, the fLimeS were not
discovered until they had made considerable
hCadWay. Reaching The lathinS and joists
between the tin roof and the plastcrng Of
the conccrt-room, the draught was SO great
that the fire was communicated with aston
ishing rapidity in almost every Objection, the
space between the ceiling and roofing acting
as n funnel. through which the flames roared
and burned with startling fierceness.
The candy nanutactory OF James iinalc
was considerably. damaged by water. This
store adjoinS McSSrs. Oscar Cranz and John
Latouche, and is immediately under the old
tiining-room Of the Exchange. Nj. Linac
estimates his loss at Si0O; no insurance. Lii
touches tailoring establishment was injured
by water, though his stock of goods was re-
moved promptly. He was insured for s, 900;
loss not estimated, but slight. Mr.. CranZ i.
insured for $4,000 loss will probably Jbc
1920. Hotel building insured for $1,000
damage by fire and water not estimated. On
the furniture and fixtures there was an in.
surance Of $4,000; damage very slight-to
a few tables.
The tircmen deserve mention for the prompt
ness with which they responded to thc
alarm and the energy and labor which was
Displayed in arTesting the flames. which
