Urge Fire Commission to Reward
Frank German for Rescuing
Young Girl.

The Supervisors Fire Committee yester-
day referred to the Fire Commission the
communication of Chief Sullivan OF the
Fire Department. recommending for suit
able recognition the heroic act of Frank
German in saving Miss Nellie Healey
from fire at PA Stevenson street.
The committee recommends that Cor
man be rewarded in such manner as will
seem proper by the Fire Commission.
While approaching the bravery shown by
German in risking his life to save another
the committee regrets that 1t has no
power to reward the young man. How
ever, 1t gives its hearty approval to any
token that the Fire Commission may see
Mt to give him.

Fire was discovered last night shortly
before o'clock in the engineers supply

street. between Mission and Howard
streets. An alarm was sounded from box

the department arrived the fire had spread
to the Standard Machine Works and
Brown & Nugents wagon works.
The fire was stubborn one to fight. and
not until after two hours of the hardest
work was it declared out. Owing to the
nature of the contents of the various
buildings considerable damage was done
by water. The total loss is estimated at
between $780, and $4,000.
