HOSE HOUSE FIRE
CA Us Ed b ] WIZ ES
State Fire Marshal Comes
and Investigates Traders
Alley Blaze.

Moses M Kindleberger, deputy
state fire marshal, Of Wheeling, came
to Glarksburg Friday and made an
inyestigation Of the IRE that Quilted
the frame building occupied by the
city fire department IN Traders alley
Thursday evening. 1t is the belief
that crossed electric wires caused the
blaze. Charles B. johnson, chair
man Of the FIRE committee Of the city
council, also investigated the fire
Friday. Neither could find any deti-
nate clueN The cause.
The fire started in the second
story, which was used for hay and
feed storage room, and spread to a
considerable extent before it was
discovered by John A. Mcdonald, the
only fireman at the place. Other
firemen were summoned and efforts
were directed at first toward saving
the contents OF the building. The.
horses, hose cart, all the hose except
about 200 feet and all the rest Of the
apparatus we're taken out.
Hose connections were then made
with a fire plug at the corner of
Traders alley and Fourth street and
with one in the alley near the burn
ing building. The first named plug
was found to be dry and no water
could be obtained from it while onl,
a very light pressure was at first OBJ
tanned from the other. 1t is stated
that valves had been closed without
notice to the fire department.
After some desperate fighting,
marked with a number of thrilling
incidents, somebody turned on a
valve somewhere and water spoutea
from the hose that was in play clear
over the hose tower Of the building.
IN a short time thereafter the fre
was extingnished. es
The hose tower was practically
ruined and the inside Of the building
was we'll burned. The loss to the
owners of the building is about 81 500
and the loss to the city is under $50
as the only damage to its property
WAS done to about 200 feet OF hose.
