Special TO The Independent
Great Falls. Nov. 27.-At o'clock this
morning W.D. Benson and Jack Enrght
discovered smoke Issuing from the up
per story of the building occupied by
A. Nathan's clothing house. Sergeant
Shea at once sent In an alarm, while
Mr.. Enright went To a telephone and
called up Mr.. Nathan, who was sleeping
soundly at his residence. The fire de-
partment was soon on the ground ana
the front door smashed In. The store
was so full OF smoke and the heat so
intense that the firemen could not get
far inside the building. The depart
ment did good work after Il got at the
fire, however, and I'm less than an hour
II was under control and practically
subdued. Three-quarters of an hour
after the fire was discovered II was all
out.
The damage was very heavy but not
a total loss Indeed, IL Is surprising,
considering the heat, that 70 much es-
capped. The fire evidently originated
either in pile of shoe boxes. near the
rear of the store, or in the basement
directly under II. for at this point big
hole is burned in the floor and the whole
pile of shoe boxes in heap of charred
fragments. When the fire department
first reached the building they found
the fire burning in the basement as well
as in the main store. After putting out
the blaze In the basement they turned
their attention to the main floor.
Mr.. Kaufman stated that the stock
carried by the firm would run between
S75, 900 and 100000 Both the basement
and the upper story were filled with
goods. The firm carried Insurance
amounting To $3l ,O00.
The cause OF the fire IL n mystery at
present. Mr.. Kaufman locked up the
store about 9 80 last night and no one
slept i'm the store. There were no stoves
In the building. IL being heated by
