about two hours after Andrew Belts, a

It's origin is matter Of conjecture.
Four other fires have occurred in the
building in the last few years.
A slight blaze started in pile of the
debris last night, but it was promptly ex-

Director Smiths Statement.

Director Smith of the geological survey
gave out a statement about the fire as
follows:
The fire originated in and was largely
confined to the first floor, occupied by
other tenants. 1t gives emphasis, how
ever to the wisdom of Congress in au-
thorizing at it's last session the prepare
ton of plans for a government building
that will not only be better adapted to the
peculiar needs of this scientific and map
making bureau. but will insure the safety
of the public records, that have been five
times endangered by fire destruction
since 1903.
THE fire today originated i'm one of the
several stores over which the survey
watch force has no control, but in a
few moments the flames had burst
through into the survey library. situated
