The local agents of the companies
this morning wired the loss to the
home Offices or general agencies Of the
companies involved, placing the loss
in each case as total" and it is be.
ieved that an adjuster will be sent
forward at ice to adjust the insur-

trustees of the Maennerchor corpora

repairing of the stage. The hall will
be gotten in shape first, as already

Light Wires Promptly Cur.
The electric light company, which
has a daylight circuit running near the
building, sent a man to the scene as
soon as the file was located and the
wires were cut. so that there was no
danger from live wires to the fremen.
The telephone company suffered very
little loss.
Department Congratulated.
The promptness of the fire depart
ment in responding to the alarm and
the efficiency of the service afterward
went far toward preventing what
might have been a very destructive
fire. Both Chief Gramm and Assistant
Chief Cordiner were early at the
scene, and they directed the efforts of
the trained iremen to the right spots
at the right moment, the excellent re-
suits of the department bringing COM
nendation from business men and 9TH

throttle of the steamer and that ma.
did itsNtun duty. The chemical
engine was on hand, out the fire soon

the fire, but there is some discussion
of the possibility of incendiarism, and
the police have the matter in hand.
Chief Gramm is certain the fire start

from ashes piled in al iron ashbin in

Quickly Gave Alarm.

Mr.. Washburn was on his way to this
Office to prepare for the days labor
when he discovered the fire. Running
to the engine house at the corner OF
Third and Custer streets, a block and
a half away from the fire, he gave the
alarm, and in a few minutes the de-
partment was on hand, with the engine
and three streams of water. The de-
partment had the fire in hand in less
than an hour, so that the damage was
confined to that one building and to
the stage addition of that building. 1t
is notable that at the time the whistles
sounded the alarm a stiff wind was
blowing, and many citizens who had
located the fire looked for the utter
destruction of the New Grand and the
wooden buildings to the north and east
in the same block.
Believed Residence Doomed.
Mr.. and Mrs. R. E. Fitch spent the
night with their son., E. E. Fitch, at
Fourth and Sheridan streets, and Mr..
Fitch, when ne heard of the location
of the fire, expected to hear that his
own property, just east OF the theater,
had taken fire. NO sooner, however
had the fire companies gotten their
lines laid and water flowing than the
wind died down and for an hour there
was no wind to speak of. Mr.. Fitch
was o o at home and neighbors came
to the help of the owners of property,
so that the fire was confined I o the
opera house, although burning brands
fell by the hundreds. There was at
no time fear of the burning If other
property after the engine started on
