is that it was caused by electric wires ard
the other by somebody throwing a lighted
cigar in .thc hallway while coming down
stairs late last night or early this morn
ing the fire smoldering an night. Patro'-
man Conner however. said he entered tho
building at about $50 o'clock this morning
the door being open. and he saw no sign
OF fire az that time
Fortunat ~ there is a lcavy fire wal
between the hallway and Hyrup's theatr,.
