BREWERY ON FIRE.
7 he Storage Department Burned
Last Night.

Last night about 1:3O O'Clock there
was an alarm Of fire turned in from box
80 and when the fire companies arrived
on the scene it was found that the cold
storage house of the Virginia Brewing
Company was in flames.
For almost half AN hour after the fire
companies arrived no water could be Sc
cured save one poor little stream that
would not go thirty feet. The angry
flames kept licking up the sides of the
building, and being famed into fury by
the wind at one time threatened the
brewery building.
The enU' ne was soon brought into ac-
ton and In short time two pcwerfuI
streams were playing on the burning fur-
mace, but this was not sufficient to curh
the angry red-tongued monster. Chief
McFalls, handicapped though he was
through the inability to secure enough
water. directed the operations of the fire.
men with the GOODNESS ami discretion of a
veteran
For some time before the alarm was
turned in tie employees of the brewery
had been working on the fire but with no
avail as the fierce western wind famed
the flames and made them more furious.
After trying to telephone to the fire
department and not being able to get
them, in sheer desperation they took a
rock and broke into the fire alarm box AS
the key would not unlock it,
The building was completely Quilted
and about all that was saved from the
building was about fifty empty kegs. In
the building there was between 800 and
1000 barrels Of beer but as to whether or
not all OF this had been ruined could not
be determined. Besides the beer there
were 200 or 300 kegs and other utensils
used around the brewery The estimated
loss on building and its contents is be-
tween SEQ 600 and $50 900 and is partially
covered by insurance
The origin of the fire is n mystery to
the brewery people ~ there is never any
firesin the building. and when first dis.
covered there was only small column of
smoke issuing from the roof In an in
terview last night with Mr.. Louis Scholz,
president of the brewery company, he
said it would be impossible to tell tho
amount lost by the fire until this morn.
ing some tins.
at the time we go to press this morn
ing the fire is still burning very iercely
though the fire department. are getting it
under control, but it will he some time
before they will succeed in putting it out.
