Philadelphia, May PA fire that is
estimated to have caused a loss of up

the building 1900 rolls of carpet, 500
barrels of molasses, light and heavy
machinery of various descriptions, a
car load of wines and other liquors
and a car load of matches.

Wiseman and was valued at $4,000.
Three firemen were injured, two of
them sustaining fractured shoulder
blades.
