FIRE CAUSES
LOSS OF S3,5OO
WACONYARD DESTROYED
SERIOUS BLAZE ALSO DAMAGES
NEWSPAPER AND OTHER
BUILDINGS.

Fire, supposed to be of incendiary
building and wagonyard belonging to
John Dunaway and damaged adjacent
property on North Front street, caus-
ing a loss of over $500, covered by
about 81, 500 insurance.
The fire was first seen shortly after
l / o'clock last night by r. T. Johnson,
who boards at the Layman hotel, just
across the street. The blaze was start
ed in a manger in one of the stalls To-
Gated about the center of the wagon
yard, and by the time the alarm was
given and persons could reach the
place, it had gained too much headway
to be put out.
With no means of fighting the fire
except few buckets and a limited
quantity of water, great crowd
which soon gathered worked hard to
save the adjoining buildings. The
brick business building adjoining the
yard on the north and occupied by
H. F. Price was burned, but by heroic
efforts, the volunteer fre-fghters saw
ed the next building, occupied by the
Arkansas Farmer plant. On the south
the fire was stopped at the building
owned Ey A. E. Livingston and occu-
pied ly J. A. Erwin. Across the
street the Layman hotel buildings
were endangered, and it was only by
hanging wet blankets and comforts
over the verandas that the hotel was
saved
The losses are approximately as fol
lows:
John Dunaway, wagonyard and
brick business house; loss $500; in
surance, 81, 800.
L. S. Dunaway, south wall and roof
of Farmer building, damaged about
$500; insured.
A. f. Livingston, north wall of
brick building, damaged about $400;
insured.
Higgins & Graham, damage to inte-
rior of printing Office, about 800; in
sured.
H. F. Price, pressing parlor; loss
about $50; no insurance.
John Dunaway, owner of the wa
gony ard, is almost positive the builC'
ing was set on fire by some person,
but whether intentionally or not he
did not express an opinion. Il left
the yard late in the evening" he said,
land there was no one spending the
night there, so everything was closed
up. There had been no fire about the
place since early in the morning, and
this was in a place a considerable dis
tarce from the point where the fire
was first seen."
A frame building around which the
wagonyard was built was one of the
oldest structures in town, and the fire
destroyed the last frame house except
one within the fire limits on Front
street,
