The building is surrounded by lot of
old wooden buildings, and close to it is
Woodward's Pavilion. If the fire had got
a good start the destruction of property
would have been great, as the buildings
would have burned like finder. The laun-
dry building contains machinery, which
was not removed when the change was
made to Folsom street. The building was
condemned by the Fire Wardens about a
year ago 1t is owned by r. F. Fletcher
of Los Gatos.
Baratas was arraigned in Judge Mo
gan's court yesterday morning, and the
case was continued until January 25. His
bonds were fixed at $4,000.
The Fire Marshal is puzzled to under
stand what motive BarataS could have for
setting fire to the building. 1t was ru-
mored that his wife had been employed in
the Electric Laundry, but had been dis
charged, and the motive might have been
revenge Her name was not, ho-ever,
on the books of the company. Towe is
still hunting for clew.

made the richest gold discovery in the city and

At that time Mr. Anderson was in hopes that
he could secure the right to open up the ground
and mine through the property, but as the Su-
pervisors have authority to give any one
permission to mine gold under public street
