What threatned 10 be very disas-
trous fire took pla@ about $50 o'clock
last night in he r@r OF No. 1903 Ross
street, but by good arrangement on the
part OF the hrmen.it was extinguisned
without great damage.
The FIRE occrred in the basement OF
the rear addition a the house named,
which was ocopied as a stable by Mr..
James Woodal and II. W. Rountree &
Brother. The palance of the building.
which was ued bs a residence. had
been vacant ory few days.
The cause the fire Is unknown.
The driver Of wagon owned by Roun-
tree & Brothr put his team of two
mules I'D an TOUR before the fire was
discovered, an whsn seen after the fire
was unable q give any explanation of
its origin. On. OF the mules broke his
halter and cab out Of the stable when
the doors werethruvn open and escaped
alive. but badi burned. The other mule
and three hoIes, the property of Mr.
James Woodal were burned to death.
The properts is owned by Mr.. Oscar
f. Lehman. al is insured for $500. The
first knowledg he had OF the fire was
when i inquirh of him at his residence
about the insranee. This amount Will
probably covefthe loss on the building.
There was nj insurance on the wagons
and animals the stable.
The hremen attacked .--e flames with
two streams q each end, and though 1t
was well undo way when they reached
the scene it Fas quickly gotten under
control.
'rhere was inch delay in turning in
the alarm. ani 1t was sent In by Roun-
trees watchmh from their private box.
The burned building is just in rear
OF the old elton house, which adjoins
the Ballard hose behind, and Rountree's
lumber yard I'd trunk factory is just
across Ross sfet. Had the fire caught
other buildlngahe result would no doubt
have been vet destructive.
