Smoky Fire at
Whitman & Adams.

An alarm of fire was sounded at
1922 A. NJ, Monday, for a fire in the
| sub basement of the Whitman q Adj
/ ans co. department store in the Nee
MAN block, ri, 2l5 Water street The
| fire itself was confined entirely to the
| sub basement but the store, which
/ was stocked with Christmas goods in
addition to the lines usually carried,
/ was we'll filed with smoke. Two lines
| of hose We're run from the rear Of the
building and il was necessary TO use
| considerable water in the sub basement
| TO eXtinguish the flames The recall
was sounded a 1f,O5 A. Nj.
| The fact that there was a fire in the
building was first discovered by a GUS
toner, who informed Miss Agnes Diet
rich, one of the salessirls, who was
waiting upon her, that she smelled
smoke and thought she could hear
flames from underneath the basement.
Delbert W. Adams a member of the
firm, tried to get down the stairway to
the sub-baSement with an eXtinguish-
er. but was unable to do so on account
of the smoke which was coming up
the narrow stairway. Meanwhile, two
Young men employed at the store
George Davis and Lawrence Roderick
had rung in an alarm from box 80, in
front of the Granite National Bank.
The fire department made a quick
run and chief Buckley, as soon as he
found that it was impracticable to get
into the ub-basement from the inside
stairway OH account of the smoke,
sent the hosemen around to the rear
of the building and it was from this
gYa I,at no
fought.
The fire apparently originated in the
northern end of the sub basement
near the electric wiring, but just
how il caught. no one seems to
know. No employees of the build
ing had been in the sub basement
since early morning it is understood.
The fire had gained sufficient Roadway
before it was eXtinguished to char
badly the overhead timbers in the part
of the suh-basement, where it APP
peared to have started.
The building is owned by Horace
North of Boston and both he and
Messrs. whitman & Adams are under
stood TO have their losses well covered
by insurance in companies represented
by number of different local agen
cies. Neither member of the firm had
any figures to give out Monday noon,
as to the amount of loss sustained by
the fire.
The store was closed Immediately
after the fire and will remain so until
after the insurance adjustors have
gone over the stock for the purpose of
determining the amount of damage,
which they expect to do Tuesday.
Until the entire stock has been gone
over by the adiustors it will be I'M
possible to estimate the amount of
loss and any attempt TO do so would
be mere guess work.
