Fire Marshal Gladwin Thinks State
Street Fire Was Due to Carelessness.
Fire Marshal Gladwin, Captain Cowles
and Detective McGrath yesterday made
origin of the fire at 391 State street,
which burned out the place of A. M.
Kaletsky, a dealer in furs, Saturday
night. AT first it looked rather suepic-
lous, and ii was thought the fire was of
lncendiary origin. but yesterday after
a thorough Investigation was made
Marshal GladWiu came to the Conclu-
sion that the fire was started from care
lesshess, due to the throwing of light
ed cigarette in a big bale of Wadding
under bench in one corner of the store.
Fire Marshal Gladwin said he could
see no object for setting the place on
fire as new and valuable stock of goods
had just been put in the store and that
1t looked very much as if it was piece
OF carelessness on somebody's part.
When the firemen arrived on the
scene the fire was burning fiercely and
1t looked as if the whole place was
doomed
The chemical engine which was the
flrst to arrive turned a stream into the
room with good effect A line Of hose
was run from engine No. 2 and although
hl!ed with water none was turned onto
the ire as the chemical engine had the
blaze under control
Mr.. kaletsky stated that the damage
was about SO 900 and that his insurance
was $l,7oo on stock and $500 upon fix
lures, but it Is not believed that the loss
will amount to over 81, 600

EXCITING EXPERIENCE.


What might have been fatal drown
ing accident was narrowly averted at
Morris Cove yesterday afternoon about
5 o'clock and had it not been for the
timely assistance of a party who were
out in a boat some fatalities would have
probably spread a cover of gloom over
the lively summer resort. A party of
five, including Miss Emma Hasselbach,
Louis Norton Mrs. Louis Stetson, all of
this city, and Mr.. Norton's two sis
ters, Were out sailing in a catboat and
having merry time when one of the
girls noticed a stream pouring into the
boat, evidently from a hole near the
center board, The water was coming in
very rapidly and all efforts to stop it
We're in vain. The presence of mind of
Mr. Norton who is member of the
