ST. pAUL'S CHAPEL BURNED
Parish House Also Destroyed in
Early Morning Fire.
Church Was Saved-Loss 100000 or
More. with insurance OF e3s.'W
ON the Entire Property and
$4,000 on Furnishings.

The chanel and parish house or st
Ja,l's Church were Sunday morning
DESTROYED by a fire which began in the
furnace room under the chapel and ves-
NV room, and burned for a period OF four
hours, from about ESQ until $50 the
church proper the rectory and other
nearby buildings were saved by the ener-
cetic efforts Of the FIRE department, but
the chapel and parish house. With their
contents. were almost totally destroyed,
only the walls being left standing.
STORY OF THE FIRE
shortly after five o'clock Sunday
morning, Henry l. Scott, the sexton OF
st. Paul's Church. started ZIP his fires
and opened the furnace doors. He thcn
went to his house. which Is but a stones
throw from the church on Pine street. TO
attend to his own FIRE and on hts re-
turn stopped at the rectory to see to the
furnace there. lie did not consume over
fen minutes on the trip.
On his return to the church ne found
the furnace room full Of smoke and on
fra The only possible explanation OF
the IRE is that It originated through a
powerful back draft, caused by the
strong south wind which was blowing.
MIR Scott ron 10 the nearest fire alarm
box ard attempted To turn in an alarm
but failed, It Is supposed because he did
pull the hook down far enough. He then
ran 10 the rectory and aroused Dr. G. Y.
Piss, rector Of 81. Paul's. who tele-
phoned TO Chief Niles Of the fire depart
ment.
The chief rang IN an alarm and hurried
10 the scene Of the Are himself, arriving
there about $40 Tho entire department
was on the s,rot almost Immediately and
.he work OF fire fighting commenced.
THE lower, or basement, rooms of the
chapel and parish house were. by this
time filled with smoke and flames but
the fireanen, nevertheless, effected All en-
trance
The fire had got into the partitions, all
Of which had air spaces, and worked up
20 the roof As the roof was Of slate
the department was seriously handicapped
in fighting the fire from without. The
chief efforts Of the nremen were devoted
10 saving the main part Of the building,
the church. and this they did A dozen
streams Of water were playing on the
blaze soon after tho arrival of tho de-
partment and at ono time nine streams
were alone devoted to preventing the
spread Of the flames to the church.
BY $50 the fire was out and only a
few blackened rsfters and portions Of the
roof tn addition to the stone walls re-
mained Of the parish house and chapel

One Of the strangest fires in the his
tory Of the city occurred here this week
when the Holy Trinity cemetery was the
scene OF a conha grafton which not only
taxed the efforts Of the fire depart
ment but also consumed several rows Of
tombstones. The trouble was discovered
by small boy who hurried excitedly to
the nearest policeman with the startling
Information that de grave yards burn
in up" Never having seen such fire
the officer was skeptical until his youth
full guido piloted him to the cemetery
wall beyond which flames could be seen
leaping from headstone to headstone. BY
the time the astonshed policeman had
turned in an alarm and the fire depart
ment had arrived several dozen of the
memorials had been consumed. After
the fire was cxtinguIshed ny copiuus

engineers are already studying the prob

are the plans already suggested which

bilious OF all proposals is that which
conteinplates supplying this city with
water from Lake Erie. The initial cost
of duct capable OF carrying to New
fork 1'oOoM1,DD gallons OF water daily,
or twice the capacity OF the plant now
under construction would. 1t IN esti-
mated, amount to about $50 0OO. 900. The
elevation of Lake Erie. however, is B5s
feet greater than that Of New York, so
that the water could be brought to the
city principally by gravity. The advo-
so'co VI TINS pan also argue III Us De-
half that when the water reached its
destination it would be under sufficient
pressure to run dynamos. with which
among other things salt water could be
pumped to flush the streets. 1t is fur

line OF tho proposed duct In sufficient
quantities not only to enable New York
TO get its water supply free, but actual
