companies Nos. and responded.
When the apparatus arrived the fire was
raging, the flames reaching a great height
and illuminating brightly the whole south
ern part of the city. The flames commu-
nicated themselves to the adjoining
house, occupied as a dwelling by G. c.
Schneider and while the fire did not do
much damage to the building il was COM
pletely Quilted by water.
The house next 10 Steineckers and the
stable of II. r Lubs on the eastern side
of the tenements in which the fire started,
were also at one time ignited. The tene-

destroyed. They were occupied by e.

The damage done by the fire will prob
ably exceed $1,000, which is in a large
part covered by insurance. A light wind
was blowing at the time of the fire and
but for the prompt response and energetic
work of the department disastrous CON
