Fire was discovered in the temple OF the
Washington Hebrew Congregation, Sth

morning shortly before o'clock. The
fire department received summons. but
before the alarm was sounded No. en-
g.ne had been called on a local. AS soon
as the members of that company reached
the building they promptly called for ad-
dilional help. The blaze went from the
lower floor To the roof, the firemen being
able TO confine it to the rear of the build

destruction of the edifice.

would fully cover the loss unless the or

but it was not believed to be DANA ged. 1t

may have INJURED it. Members of the Of

The big schoolroom on the lower floor
was slightly damaged by smoke and

Response to Local Alarm.

Lieut. Mcconnell was in charge al the
quarters of No. t. engine company this
morning when a telephone message was
received from S1l 9th street telling of the
fire. Occupants of the 9th street house
had seen the blaze from their rear Win
dows and had acted promptly. When the
firemen reached the temple they noted at
n glance that they would be unable TO
cope with the flames and turned IN an
alarm. Engine companies IA, IT. and Z,
trucks and and the water tower were
soon on the scene. Acting Chief Frank ].
Wagner and Acting Battalion Chief Beers
were among those who were early at the
fire Acting Chief Wagner's first order
was for his men to do no more hmage
than was actually necessary.

commanded, and be careful about the

Fire Marshal Nicholson lost no time in
investigating the cause of the fire. and he

in the janitOrs room on the lower moor
The janitor, Robert Pettross, colored. de-
clares that he had had no fire IN the room
since last Friday There was small
gas stove in the room and 1t was kept
on a table beneath the gas fixtures. Inc
fremen found that the jet with which the
rubber tubing had been connected was
open and the gas flowing at full head.

Views of Fire Marshal.

Somebody must have opened the jet,,
the fire marshal said. He added that he
thought the gas fixture became overhead
ed, melted the rubber and the blaze was
communicated to the floor. 1t was his
idea that the fire had been burning sew
eral hours before 1t was discovered.
While the fire marshal was certain that
the fire originated in the manner stated.
the suggestion was made that POSSIBLY
il was the work of an incendiary. Ii
was said by some of those who assem-
bled in the burned building this morning
that an ince ndary may have set nre 10
the building by opening the window OF
the janitor's room and applyin ga match.
Detectives Owens and Johnston of the
first precinct were on the scene inns
morning to make an investigation.
Members of the fire department ex-
pressed surprise at the amount Of frame
work In the building. and felt that they
had done good work In checking the
flames under the circumstances. BY the
time the several companies OF the hre de-
uartment reached the temple the rear OF
the building was almost solid mass or

II was found that when the heat had
become so intense that the glass was
broken the blaze leaped from the window
