MARQUETTE PRISON
DAMAGED BY FIRE.
MICHIGAN PENITENTIARY IS THE
SCENE OF A FIFTY THOUSAND
DOLLAR BLAZE.
Confagration Starts in Cigar Factory.
and Communicates with Other Shops
-Convicts Fight Flames BTavely.

Marquette, Mich, Jan. 12.-ISpecial. ]
The Marquette penitentiary was the
scene of a $4,000 blaze yesterday after
noon. Fire started in the cigar shop in
the basement from unknown causes, and
soon the entire building was in flames.
At the time, the convicts were in their
cells eating their suppers. They were ad-
mltted to the yard and behaved WELL II
IS said that some of them did excellent
work in fighting the flames.
From the cigar shop the fire spread TO
engine and boiler houses destroying
them.
The flames next communicated to the
largest shop at the prison, the overall
factory, bakery and kitchen, but at this
point were brought under control
through excellent work of the conyicts,
aided by a. shift Of the wind, after win
dow frames and cernices had been
burned off on one side of the building.
Had this structure gone. it is believed
that the fire could have, been prevented
from badly damaging the prison itself.
The states loss is estimated at about
$4,000; that Of Franklin Cigar COM
pany. which holds the contract for prison
labor, is also about $4,000, with insur-
ance of $4,000. Fire fighting facilities
at the penitentiary were totally made

Mrs. Blaise as beneficiary, and another
for $4,000 accident insurance, which
