Nine alarms Of fire is the record for the
tWenty-four hours that ended at midnight
There were more alarms Of fire than on
any other day in 1907 and more than are
recorded for a single day in many years.
So far as the members of the fire depart
ment can remember, the largest number
of alarms for any day on record is ten,
one more than yesterday. On July 4 OF
last year, there were five alarms, so that
the record for yesterday shows just twice
as many.
The actual property loss was compare
lively small, only one OF the fires amount
ing to anything. The fremen had one wild
goose chase on a false alarm to the feather
works at Mechanic street and New Jersey
Railroad avenue. Two fires were caused
by balloons, while most Of the Others were
caused by fireworks of one or another va
riety.
Tw of the fires would probably have
pendence Day, because one was due tc
the careless use of matches in a Prince
street notion store and the other to thu
explosion of an oil stove at 81 Academy
street.
A toy balloon landed on the advertising
sign on the roof on the Lyon Brewery
