The Endicott syndicate, which for the
past two years has been endeavoring
to secure franchise for the transmits
sion of light and heat to the numerous
buildings and business blocks that il
cchtrols is experiencing the same bad
luck that attended its efforts before. Yes
terday the assembly committee on streets
heard the plea of the syndicate's agents
Gushing q Cabot, to be allowed to cross
several streets with it's conduits, but
the permit was not granted. The ordi-
nance guaranteeing the company's rights
over and under the streets was sent to
the corporation attorney for general re-
vision.
In reality the syndicate wants to do
general lighting business, serving Others
in the eight blocks in which its interests
are centered, and to that end had intro
ouced an ordinance calling for a fran
chise emitting it to that right THE
principal purpose, the applicants claim
however, is to enable them to econom-
ically heat and light their own property
II en- central station, and disposing Of
an excess if they have such. The streets
they wanted to cross are Cedar, Seventh,
Minnesota and Sixth.
Griggs Il Turned Down.
Former Assistant Corporation Attorney
Griggs appeared for Cushing &
Cabot, st. Paul representatives of the
syndicate, but he met with a rebuff from
the committee in the shape of a general
refusal to give any company a sure thing
on the cream of the heating and lighting
field. 1t would be muzZling future COM
petition, and the committee was vigor-
ously opposed to any such action.
The opinion was general, however, that
the company Should be permitted to
heat and light it's own buildings, pro
daI -
OF business blocks and buildings under
the guise Of a trusteeship, and on this
basis the corporation attorney was in
Structed to revise the ordinance. The
committee was agreed that if a permit is
given, it must be for stated number of
buildings and only those in which the
company owns the title.
Mr. Griggs said his clients would be
satisfied with such an arrangement
The syndicate claims to own and con-
troll buildings valued at S4O0O,OOO in the
very heart of the business district. 1t
is now served with heat and light by
the Manhattan, the Gas and the Edison
companies, but wants to be relieved from
paying them further toll.
Representatives of these companies
were in attendance yesterday and took
extensive notes of the proceedings Fear
that the syndicate would indulge in a
general lighting and heating business
under the guse of control and trustee

permit last year, and it now looks as

R. E. Cobb's Plant, p East
Third Street, Completely
Gutted by Fire
LOSS WILL BE $4,000
Damage to Building About
$1,OOO-LOss to Both
Fully Insured.

r. E. Cobbs egg cold stc~age plant,
q East Third street, was completely gut
ted by fire last night and Is cars of egg
cases and a large quantity of eggs de-
stroyed. Cobb's damage will amount to
$1,000 fully insured, the damage to the
building will reach $1,000 and G. ]. Ertz,
who has a commission store next door
was damaged by smoke and water to the
extent of $780,
The building is an old tWo-story stone
affair and was used as a storage place
for eggs and for Gambling Lnem. The
fire evidently started among the egg
cases in the rear on the second floor, al
though the cause is not known. The
eggs are 'candled' or tested as to their
freshness by an electric globe instead
of candle and there was no fire in the
building, so that the only remaining
conjectures as to the origin Of the fire
are incendiarism or defective wiring.
The alarm was turned in by one of
the Cobb employees at S:45, by which
time the fire had taken a firm hold on
the infiammable egg cases which were
piled up to the ceilings. When the
fire department arrived on the scene,
a dense volume of black smoke was
pouring from the upper windows on
Third street. There is no alley in the
rear of the building and the work of
the department. was hampered, as the
only way to get at the blaze was from
the front. The heat of the fire in the
rear soon caused the front windows to
break and the blaze shot far out on the
street.
Saved by Thick Wall.
There is a thick stone wall between
Cohb's and Ertz's, and this prevented the
fire from working it's way into the latter
building although considerable smoke
penetrated through the creVices. ErtZ
had a large number of freshly killed
chickens which were slightly damaged
by the smoke and some cheese and but
ter were damaged by the smoke and
water.
The egg crates with the pasteboard
sections made ideal tinder and they
burned swiftly and stubbornly The
crates were piled up so that the streams
could not strike the blaze in the rear
squarely and it worked it's way to the
front. The roof started burning in a
half hour, but the fire department had
the fire completely under control by this
time. One fireman was slightly cut on
the left shoulder by falling plate glass.
r. E. Cobb, the proprietor of the stor-
age plant, said that he did not know
what quantity of eggs were stored in the
building, but thought that there were 10
carloads of cases, the majority of which
were empty. The building is handled by
w. G. Read.
