AN EARLY SUNDAY FIRE.


r. & W. Jenkinson's Tobacco Warehouse
Damaged to the Extent of $4,000
Overhead Wires Interfere With the
Firemen-Travel Delayed on Penn Av-
enue.
Shortly after s o'clock yesterday morn
ing, fire was discovered in the third story
of the building occupied by R. & W. Jen-
kinson, wholesale tobacco dealers, at No
1040 PenNavenue. Two alarms were sent
In. The large number of wires strung
along Penn avenue made it difficult for lad
ders to be raised, go that the fire had to be
fought from the street. But the flames
were confined to the third and fourth floors
of the Jenkinson building and in short
time were under control.
The fire originated on the third floor, and
is supposed to have been caused by small
stove left burning contrary to orders. The
adjoining building occupied by Thomas E.
Pollard, liquor dealer, was somewhat dam
aged by water as well as the building occu-
pied by A. Klinardlinger, also liquor
dealer,
Mr. Jenkinson estimates his loss, prin-
cipally on manufactured cigars and large
amount of leaf tobacco, at about $50, 600,
fully covered bv insurance, in about 10
companies. Pollard's loss is reported at
$4,000, caused by water getting into the
liquor. This is fully covered by insurance.
Mr. Klinardlinger's loss is small. The
building is owned by the John Scott and
d. A. Stewart heirs, and is damaged to the
extent of 5000, fully covered by Pittsburg
insurance The second floor of the Jenkin-
son building was occupied as an Office by
the Mansfield Coal and Coke Company, and
was badly ldrenched with water.
The fire caused long delay to travel on
the Citizens Traction line, which was very
annoying, as it was church time and many
persons were thus discommoded.

was up in the hay loft and dared the officers
to come up the ladder. He stood over the
opening guarding it with a pitchfork, and
said the first policeman who tried to come
up through the opening he would jab with
the fork. Lieutenant Duncan studied a
short time and then started up the ladder
with his revolver in his hand, and when
near the top he fired it. This frightened
the negro so badly that he fell over on the
