FIREBUG
DESTROYS
CATHEDRAL

Halifax, y. s., Dec. N.-It Is believed
that the fire which destroyed St Luke's
Anglican cathedral here early today was
due TO incendiarism. When the fire was
discovered a man was seen leaving the
vicinity Of the church and acting i'm a
suspicious manner. The authorities are
searching for him.
Fire was first discovered i'm a pile OF
chairs near a stove In the Sunday school
building, ~ feet from the main cathe-
dral. This fire was eXtinguished with
slight damage Hardly had IL been sub
dued when word reached the fire depart
ment that the cathedral was ablaze. A
general alarm summoned all the APP
paratus OF the city. but the cathedral
which was built OF wood, was OF a nature
TO feed the flames rapidly and could not
be saved. Only a few charred tiubers
remain today.
The cathedral was erected about 20
years ago and had been extensively reno
waited during recent years. The total
loss is estimated at about $50. 0c0 with SIS
900 Insurance on the building and contents
and 5000 insurance on the organ.
