The Large Establishment of the Colorado
, Supply Company and Three Other Busi-
ness Houses.--Gallant Work Performed ty
Firernen.--Rebuilding Has Commerced.
The third large fire that has
visited Crested Butte during its
twenty years of existence broke
out at four o'clock last Thursday
morning and destroyed property
valued at $4,000 before it was ex-
tinguished. When the alarm was
turned in by Ed. Edwards the rear
end of Bruce's large saloon was
enveloped in fierce flames, the en-
tire building even then being be-
yond the point of salvation. The
fire department, assisted by num-
Der of willing citizens, was quickly
on the scene and attacked the fire
in front with one line of hose and
in the rear with one line of hose
and the chemical engine. 1t was
at once perceived, owing to the
open roof plan extending over
Bruce's place and the Supply store,
that the latter establishment was
doomed to destruction, as was also
James Lovesy's little store on the
other side. With the vacant lot
between Lovesy's and Matzke's
jewelry store on the east side as
fighting ground and with the fire
wall in Schaefer's feed store as
partial protection on the west
side, the tiremen set to work to
confine the fire and save the adj
joining valuable property. Several
small hose rendered material assist
ance in this work. For nearly
three hours the boys increasingly
and gallantly battled with the
flames and finally conquered. Dis
cipline marked their movements,
and this fact together with their
disregard of danger and the intense
heat and smoke, made their efforts
unusually effective, and occasioned
unstinted praise from the specta-
tors.
The fire was undoubtedly of
incendiary origin, as Bruce's saloon
had been unoccupied for more than
a week, Mr.. Bruce being confined
to his bed with a serious illness.
The perpetrators of the deed laid
their plans well, as the result will
attest No cause can be assigned
for their action, and no clew to the
guilty parties has been discovered.
The losses and insurance were as
follows:
Colorado Supply Company, loss
on buildings and stock of general
merchandise, $4,000; insurance,
$40, 800.
John w Bruce, loss on building.
saloon fixtures and stock of liquors
and cigars, $4,000; insurance,
$4,000.
Karl Schaefer, loss on building,
household goods and stock of hay
and grain, 81, 900; insurance, 81 800.
James Lovesy, loss on building,
household goods and stock of con-
fectionery and notions, 800; no
insurance.
James Young, incidental losses,
500; insured.
The insurance adjusters have
been at work, and there seems to
be no question but what all losses,
so far as covered, will be paid.
With unequaled enterprise the
Colorado Supply Company had six
carloads of merchandise here Sat
urday and has opened for bust
ness in the Click building on the
corner, which was quickly renovat-
ed and remodeled to suit their
requirements. Without directly
committing himself, President G.
Nj. Schenck has practically given
assurance that the company will at
once erect a more pretentious store
building than the one destroyed.
Mr.. Bruce has formulated no
