Serious Results From Fire at Blossoms

Fire, caused by a slight explosion OF

y. +. Besson's iyeing and cleaning estao-
lishmsnt at LIB 18th street. shortly
after o'clock today. The loss is estimated
at about $3.50. principally in damage to
machinery. Few articles intrusted TO the
he use for cleaning were destroyed. and the
loss on these amounted 10 but little. There
was no insurance on the property.
Mr.. Besson had nearly finished his morn

action probably ayerted a serious fire, the

In the meantime the fire department IA
been summoned and rendered prompt and

Young WIFE DESERTED.
James Freeman MysteriOusly Disap-
pears, Leaving No Trace.

The police were asked last night to look
out for young man named Edward Free
man, who disappeared from here Tuesday
morning, leaving his wife in almost desti-
tute circumstances. Freeman is cook by
occupation, and Monday morning about 4
o'clock he reached here with his wife from
Atlantic City. They remained I'm the depot
until after daybreak, and then they went
in search of a room, finding one with the
family of Mr.. c. G. Younger, 40 New
Jersey avenue. Eleven months ago they
were married in New York, and have lived
in Atlantic City most of the summer. The
season was drawing to a close, and Free
man concluded to come to this city. where
he thought he might get a good situation
for the winter.
Tuesday morning when he left his room
he told his wife he had obtained a position
in hotel on Pennsylvania avenue, and
took his cooking outfit with him, saying
he would return in the evening about $50
o'clock. Mrs. Freeman remained about the
house all day, anXiousy awaiting the time
for the return of her husband. AT the hour
mentioned she had not heard from him,
and a night of waiting and watching fol-
lowed. Morning came and he had rot re-
turned What had become of him the
young woman could not imagine. Had he
been drinking man. she could have ex-
planned to herself why he was absent. but
he had not been in the habit of drinking,
and there was simply no reason she could
assign for his absence. During the night
she spent most of her time at the window,
peering abroad and hoping.
Mrs. Freeman waited all day Wednes-
day, feeling that her husband would GER
tainly return at night. but he failed to ap-
pear. he had the day before. When last
night came. and there was still no news of
him, the wife became almost frantic and
concluded to ask the police for assistance.
She had made inquiry at the hotel where
he said he had obtained work, and had
found that he had not been there.
The distressed young wife still spends
most Of her time at the window, listening
for familiar footsteps and awaiting the
return of the missing one. The police have
been unable to find any trace of the hus-
band.
