WORK OF AN |NCEND|ARY,
Narrow Escape of the Inmates
of a Howard Street
House.
Fires Built I'm Two Railways and
Fed With Kerosene-Spite-
Work Suspected.

A "frebug" almost succeeded in burning
the clearinghouse at 1118 Howard street
early yesterday morning, and that heavy
loss OF life was ayerted is due to the
prompt response of the Fire Department
to an alarm from box 70.
The house is three-story frame build
ing, owned by L. C. Hab erling and occu-
pied by ]. Mooney, who lets out reoms to
dodgers of both sexes.
At 3:15 o'clock yesterday morning a
lodger smelled smoke in the second story
hallway, and at once sent in an alarm.
This blaze was quickly extinguished, but
had no sooner been gotten under control
when another fire was discovered in the
next story above. This was also put out
without difficulty. AT the places where
the blazes were found the smell of coal oil
was strong, and it was found that the floor
and wall were saturated with the infam-
mable stuff.
The laths had been taken out of the wall
in order to give the flames full sway, and
had not the matter been discovered in time
nothing could have saved the building.
The fires were so widely separated that
there was no chance that one had started
the other, and from their position it ap-
pears that the incendiary must have
started the one on the third story and
then descended to the second floor to finish
his work.
There were thirty people sleeping in the
house at the time and had the second story
hall been in flames when the fire was dis
covered the loss of life would have been
heavy.
The Fire Marshal is investigating the
case, and believes it to be one of spite
work.

Cigars and DenS on Clay Street
Disappear in Rapid
Flames.
Chow Kee g. Co.'s Clsar-Factory
Reduced to Ashes, With a
Loss of $4,000.

There was great excitement on Clay
street, near Kearny, last night, when a
stream of chattering Cinnamon poured
out of 6491I Clay street and big flames shot
from the windows of the second story. A
lamp had been tipped over in one of the
front rooms, and after the Chinese found
they could not smother the blaze with
their hands they all fed, yelling the Chin
csc equivalent for ''fre!" at their utmost
lung power
An alarm was sent in about half-past 10
o'clock from box q. The chemicals were
first to arrive, and all the work was done
with one of them, although two lines of
hose were laid from the hydrants, to be
used III case of necessity.
The two upper floors of the building
were occupied by Chow Kee & Co.'s cigar
factory. There was nearly $4,000 worth of
stock and fixtures on hand, and none of
the stuff will be saved. In the ashes is in
cluded about 100000 cigars, which were
ready for sale.
The building itself was not damaged to
any great extent. Altogether the loss may
foot up to $4,000.
The proprietor of the factory says he has
$4,000 insurance, and that his total loss will
be near $l0,0 600, but that estimate is consid-
cred too large.

minutes yesterday afternoon, that for a
while threatened to result in a wholesale
destruction of life.
The laundry, up to yesterday. was con-
Quoted by corporation, in which Messrs.
Baccigalupi, Ratio, Thuot and Brickwedel
were the main owners. Recently it got
into trouble and the end was an execution
in the Sheriff's hands and sale that was
advertised to take place yesterday.
The deputies who went there to look
after the sale, Messrs. Byington and Tracy,
began to have difficulties the instant they
arrived, for Brickwedel and Thuot, who
were in possession, refused to let them in
and they only effected an entrance after
exercising considerable diplomacy. After
the interior had been disposed of the
wagons that were outside were taken UP
and the trouble began.
Thuot mad been muttering threats Oh
vengeance all through the sale, but his
rage grew out of all bounds when he recog-
nized among the bidders friends of Bacci-
gallup and Roth, and began to suspect
that they were buying in the place to GUST
him.
'1'll blow the place up with dynamite
before they shall get it, he shouted, as he
ran through the crowd and into the
laundry.
No one paid any attention to his excited
talk and the sale was proceeding quietly,
when suddenly screams were heard from
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1895-09-07

minds that the rest were in real danger
pushed the door open by main force and
allowed the rest to escape.
HE said he was going to blow US all
up" said ore of the girls, land he would
have done it, too, if we hadn't scared him
with our irons.
"He had something in his hand that he
was going to throw into the fire. Some OF
the girls kept him away and others tried
to get out. l guess be was scared at the
screaming, for he went away from the
fire after while"
The laundryman denied that he intended
blowing up the place, but said that he
only intended keeping possession against
what he thought was an illegal sale.
By that time another squad of deputies,
who had hurriedly been telephoned Tor,
arrived Oh the scene in carriages, and quiet
was restored. 1t was some time before the
frightened girls could be induced to return
to their work, and only then when the
deputies had agreed to stay at the laundry
and prevent any further trouble.
1t is said by the Deputy Sheriffs that
when they arrived to make the sale Brick
wedel and Thuot had crowd of young
men inside to resist any attempt to make
the SALE These fellows wilted, however,
when the deputies showed their badges
and demanded peaceable possession.
Late yesterday afternoon legal repre-
sentatives of each of the owners and of
the Sheriff were on the ground TO watch
proceedings, and warm legal fight over
very much tangled corporation is in the
wind
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1895-09-07

the interior of the building, where dozen
or more girls were ironing. Before the
crowd that was grouped about and auc-
tioneer on side street could get around to
the front door the noise indicated that
every girl in the place was screaming to
the full extent of her ability and making
frantic efforts to escape from the building.
To add to the confusion the door was
found to be locked and no mems OF
getting inside seemed available. While
the deputies were debating whether or not
to break in the door and aid the scream
ing females. most of whom varied their
shrieks with cries of 'help," the I'M
prisoned ironers solved the problem
themselves by climbing on tables and
chairs and thus reaching row OF WIN
dows that are situated about ten feet
from the floor of the ironing-room and
about the same distance above the street.
Once there they began leaping into the
street with a total disregard of the danger
of broken bones. All got safely out until
a large girl known as MARY" stuck last
like hen under q gate, and then those
who were inside, seeing Their escape cut
off, redoubled their screams.
BY this time the deputies had questioned
the girls outside, and, making up their

SHERIFF TO BE ARRESTED.
superintendent of Streets Ashworth
Desires to Test Point
of Law.

A three-cornered friendly controversy
between Chief of Police Crowley, Superin-
tendent of Streets Ashworth and Sheriff
Whelan, which will probably lead to the
arrest of the latter on charge of misde-
meanor within a few days, was begun yes
terday.
Sheriff Whelan recently evicted Mrs.
Libby, of 2222 Hyde street, on an order OF
court. Her goods and chattels remained
on the sidewalk for several days, when the
policeman on the beat reported the OBJ
struction to headquarters, and the Super
intendent of Streets was asked to remove
it. He replied that it was not his business,
but that of the Sheriff, who had placed 1t
there.
Sheriff Whelan when requested to re-
move the goods declined, stating that
his responsibility ceased when the goods
were placed on the street.
Superintendent Ashworth then ordered
the goods removed, but the Sheriff was
obdurate, and was informed that he had
better carry $40 bail in his pockets, as he
might be arrested at any time for obstruct-
ing the street.
The point involved in the matter is
new one, and will be tested for the first

THE GREAT YACHT RACE.

The Betting in San Francisco Slightly in
Favor of the American Boat.
The great international yacht race was
one of the main topics of talk at the Mer-
chants Exchange yesterday afternoon.
The news will be anxiously awaited to-
day, as many little wagers have been laid.
A. H. Small, who believes that the Brit
ish boat will win, has made several bets to
that effect, but has had no trouble in find
ing takers. The odds are slightly in favor
of the Defender
Captain Hawley of the Spreckels tug
boats was willing to wager 500 even money
on the Defender. He had four hats bet on
that proposition and was willing to bet
$50 or 500 that he won the tiles.
Harry Dimond had some money placed
in his hands yesterday by an enthusiastic
Britisher who desired that it should be
laid on the Valkyrie if odds could be OBJ
tanned, but he did not find any one willing
to give the odds.
