CHICAGO FIREBUG At WORK
Firemen Are Called Upon to Contend with
Longstring of InOendisry BlaSes.
ExrlNGUlSH TEN FIRES IN ONE DAY
Serious Occurs This Morning. In
which Fifty Thousand Dollars
worth of Property Is Destroyed
Before Blaze is Quenched.

CHICAGO, April 12.-After e~xtinguishins
several fires yesterday. most Of them to-
gether and apparently Of incendiary origin,
the fremen OF South Chicago at daybreak
today were called upon to contend with
the most serious Of the long string Of
blaEes.
The first Of this mornings fires consumed
a barn containing several horses. st.
Patrick's church came next and was de-
stroyed before the hremen could reach 1t.
Scarcely had they reached the church when
they were called to fight a dangerous look
ing fire at willard Sons q Bell Forge
works. After a hard fight here the flames
we're checked. Meanwhile the warehouse
Of the Washington Ice company had caught
fire and before the flames were subdued
81, 900 damage had been done. The Calumet
theater came next, sustaining SIC, 900 lam
age before the FIRE was extingulshed. A
four-story structure having a feed store on
the ground floor and dwelling above was
discovered to be burning before the theater
fire was put out. Two families escaped In
their night clothes. The building was de-
stroyed. Meanwhile Nicholas ~schroeder's
saloon had burned down.
Loss in the Fire.
Inc TOTAL loss OF TINS morning nre u
put at $50, 1000. AS the buildings were not
near each other the fremen declare that
the fires were the work Of an incendiary'
The people Of South Chicago we're greatly
alarmed by the rapid work Of the frebug
and a careful watch is being kept today.
The financial loss in the fires of yestsr-
day aggregated $2O, 900. Evidence Of In
cendiarism was so convincing, however,
that citizens Joined the police in patrolling
the streets in an effort to guard property
and capture the incendlary or incendlaries,
In spite OF the extra precautions, however,
today's fires we're started. citizens were
bewildered at the attack and daylight was
welcomed with great relief.
A demented boy, supposed to be a
pyromaniac, is said by several residents ia
have been seen at all the fires. He Is
about II years of age and wears a red
sweater and derby hat. Three residents
say that they could identify him II they
see him again. Their description tallies IL
each case. The police are looking for him.
