A fire was discovered in the Delaware
Bank building, Sixth and Market streets,
at 8. 80 o'clock Sunday night. 1t was first
seen by j. Horace Rudolph, who at once
gave the alarm at the police station.
Several officers and citizens rushed at
once to the scene. Sergeant MONEY! en-
tered the building by the window on
Sixth street nearest Market, breaking the
window in order to do so. Buckets of
water were then handed him, with which
he put the fire out. 1t was a matter Of
a few minutes. The window frame and
sash is badly charred, but the fire was
confined to that locality. About $500
will cover the damage, $50 of which was
to stationery. The origin of the fire is
unknown, but it is thought that the
janitor in lighting the gas, as it is his
custom every evening, must have dropped
a lighted match in the waste basket i'm
mediately under the burner, as the fire
was right around and above the basket
and burner.
