FIRE AT FORT WAYNE.
The Sunday Morning Blaze Destroys

FoRT WAYNE. Ind. Nov. l2.-About /
o'clock this morning fire broke out in
Geary's theatre. The flames originated
in the interior OF the building. some
where about the stage, and no sooner
had the alarm been given than the en-
tire building was one mass of flames.
The wall on the west side Of the Aldine
hotel. which is separated from the thea
tire 10y walk four feet wide. soon took
lire and the hotel was totally destroyed
All the occupants succeeded in getting
out. The flames also took hold OF
Millers furniture store. Hattersly's
plumbing establishment aud LADIES' gun
store. Cooks printing Office. which oc
cupied one corner OF the first floor of the
Aldine hotel building. WIS entirely de
stroyed. The loss foots up about s6s.-
600. and insurance about 10000.
At o'clock this morning the fire was
completely under control, but several
streams OF water played on the flames
and ruins until 9o'clock. The general
supposition is that some fiend set the
theatre building on fire.
