A fire OF unknown origin did damage amount
ing TO 100000 last night TO a six story brick
warehouse at Washington and Laight streets
occupied by the Ragus Tea. Coffee and Spice
Company and the Union Pacific Tea Company.
Suffocating doors and gases from the burning
spices forced the aremen 10 fight the flames at
long range. They aided by two freboafs,
two water towers and twelve engines.
The night Waterman saw column Of smoke
issuing from a clothes closet on the third floor
He found the interior in a blaze and sent in an
alarm. Before the arrival OF the engines the
flames had spread into the warerooms, which
were full OF spices.
The streams OF water poured into the building
by the firemen seemed 10 have no effect Two
more alarms were sent in. Chief Croker came
to the fire from a Staten Island ferryboat, and
on the advice OF fire surgeons ordered the men
out Of the building because OF the suffocating
gases.
The flames spread 10 the top floor. ate their
way down TO the second floor and for twenty
minutes the entire building from the second
floor up was ablaZe. The fire was not con-
quered until the interior OF the building and it's
contents above the first floor had been de-
stroyed.
During the fire tight four sections of hose
stretching from the flreboats burst and drenched
numbers OF persons who were hurrying TO the
Pennsylvania ferryboats.
