Fire Alarm Early Tuesday Morning.

A fire alarm was sounded from the
Baptist bell, at about $50, Tuesday
morning, for blaze beneath the Sec
ond street bridge, over the Maine Cen
trail tracks The dense clouds of smoke
arising from the bridge were noticed by
some of the early risers in that vicin-
ity, and the alarm was given by them.
The chemical engine was on the scene
only few moments after the first
stroke of the hell. but the fluid could
not be used effectively. the flames be-
ing confined to a large box enclosing
the gas main. 1t would seem that the
fire originated from sparks issuing
from a locomotive of one of the night
Pullmans, and owing to the existence of
small leak in the gas main, the start
ing of a blaze would have almost in
simultaneously followed. The box en-
closing the main was filled with saw
dust, and in this box was the most of
the fire confined. A connection of two
sections of the main soon melted away
and of course a large leak was occa-
stoned, which with the ordinary night
pressure of gas. the chemical was un-
able to eXtinguish. In a short time.
however, the main was shut off, and
then was every spark of fire promptly
extinguished. 1t was a stubborn blaze
and the chemical remained on duty
several hours. The loss will be small.
