BLAME BANDITS
FOR BLAZE Thai
DESTROYS STABLE
Police Hunt Robbers of William
fitzpatrick as Firebugs and
Arrest Waterman.
PRISONER TELLS HALTING
STORY OF FLAMES ORIGIN
Believe Destruction Of Property
Was Revenge of Thugs
on Aged Owner.

That the fire which early today des-
troyed the stable of Fitzpatrick & Casey.
at 1884 Lock street. causing loss OF
10000, was set by members of the band
OF bandits, two of whom held up and
robbed aged William Fitzpatrick in his
office, 1873 Washington street. last Tues.
day, is the belief of the police. Abun-
dant evidence existed to establish in the
minds Of the policemen and firemen
that the blaze was of incendiary origin.
This evidence was SO strong that Arthur
Messter, Fl years old, of 1913 Warren
street. night watchman in the place.
was arrested and is now a prisoner in
the Second Precinct police station.
Patrolmen Neefus, Clark and Lloyd
rescued 21 horses form the blazing
building. Clark, in endeavoring to get
one frightened animal to the outer air.
injured his hand. But for the timely
arrival of the tlremen and policemen
the horses would have persisted, as the
stable burned rapidly.
Messter, the police declare, once
served prison term for incendiarisin
ana as his story of the fire was rather
vague and disconnected, he was made a
prisoner. But the theory concerning tile
origin OF the fire, which involves menu
pers OF the hold-up gang, seemed too
plausible to be overlooked. and an in
vestigation Is being carried out ON the
strength OF 1t. Mr.. Kilpatrick's prompt
appeal to the police is believed to have
inspired desire for revenge among the
bandits, and the costly blaze is regarded
as the natural sequence.
Fitzpatrick, who is SO years old. was
at work in his office late Tuesday after
noon, when two men entered and pulled
down tile shades. When he turned from,
MS desk 1t was to face a man pointing
a revolver at his head. He attempted
TO rise, and was struck twice over the
head by blackjack welded by O see
