pany Heavily Damaged by Water,
and Many Lodges Suffer Loss.

About 1880 this morning fire broke
out in the Sleeves building, at the cor
ner Of Liberty and State streets, do
ing damage to the amount of from
100000 to $4,000. 1t originated in a
room in the center of the top floor
which is used for a woodshed The
upper floor of the building is used for
lodge rooms, and is in use every night
Of the week, Last night the Macca-
bees held a session of the lodge, which
was followed by luncheon and So
ciable. They did not close the even
ing's entertainment until late, and
one theory and a theory only, is that
match was thrown among some of
the inflamable matter and ignlted, or
it is possible that some of the work
men who have been at work for the
past several months on the remodel
ing of the building might have mis-
lplaced some of the wiring, and thus
the fire might have been caused by
an electric wire. 1t Is quite evident
that the fire had been under way for
about half an hour before 1t was dis
covered, as great damage had been
done before the alarm was sounded.
The first that was known Of the fire
was when an explosion took place
which sent the flames high into the
air This explosion was caused by the
intense heat and smoke that had ac-
cumulated under the roof and the sky
! light to the air shaft in the central
part of the building. As soon as the
heat and pressure became strong
enough It burst forth from the top and
sent the flames high into the air, This
gave the alarm to all in that part Of
the city and the department was soon
on the scene, Both departments re-
sponded, the East Salem department
taking a stand at High and State and
department No. assuming position
at Liberty and State, Several streams
of water we're soon playing on the
flames, but 1t proved to be a pretty
hard fire to fight, by reason Of the
fact that It was in the attic, and In
the Railways, where It was very diff
flcult to reach. The flremen did splen
did work, however, and by o'clock
had It completely under control. Al
most the entire third story Of the
building is destroyed. as well as the
roof and attic, while great deal Of
damage is done to the ceiling Of the
second floor Water damaged all
parts OF the building. and II is diff
cult to estimate the total damage done
at this time The stock of the Roth
Grocery company, grocers, which Ia
next door on the east, was greatly
damaged Most Of the damage to the
grocery company is from water, al.
