Another Disasterous Blaze at Laporte
Early Saturday morning at about
2:3O, fire was discovered in the meat
market by the proprietor, Henry
Kraus, who was awakened from his
slumber while sleeping in room
but few feet from the market by
the noise of the fire. The interior
and front end was all ablaze by the
time the alarm was given and hOr-
rifying sounds of midnight bells
aroused the entire population who
quickly responded to the call and
began to remove the furniture from
the double dwelling occupied by Mr..
Kraus and Chas. Funston. Before
the market had been consumed the
fire communicated with the dwelling
house and with all the effort that
could be put forth only a part OF the
furniture from the upper story could
be saved.
The buildings were owned by j..
w. Flynn and partly insured. Mr..
Kraus carried no insurance on his
market equipme mt which comprised
Il new steam engine and refrigerator
costing upwards of S4OO. A large
quantity of meat in the building and
a new truck wagon standing close by
were also consumed. No insurance
was carried on any of the furniture
burned. The origin of the fire is
unknown, as is usual with the several
other fires that have occurred here of
late.
Mr.. Kraus has not yet decided
whether he will rebuild or continue
the business here any longer.
