HOUSTON HAS
ANOTHER FIRE
BIG COFFEE WAREHOUSE BURNS
FIRE LOSS ESTIMATED AT
100000

Houston, Tex, Aug. ia fire
which occurred shortly before 4
O'Clock this afternoon completely de-
stroyed the warehouse of the Cheek
Neal Coffee company at Carr and
Cont streets in the Fifth ward, the
loss according to officials, being
more than 100000, the insurance
being inadequate to cover the en-
tire loss. The fire originated in the
corrugated steel warehouse in a
corner where large amount OF
eXcelsior-packed crockery was stor-
ed and spread rapidly eating its
adjoining before the arrival of the
fire department Nearly 5000 bags
house, practically all of which was
lost, the damage to the building and
equipment being between 100000
and $4,000 The three-story build
ing in which the coffee and the ma
chihery of the coffee company was
located was practically untouched by
the flames, although the water
worked considerable damage on the
machinery. according to j. w. Neal
the president and general manager
The machinery will be running
within a few days. SO rapidly
were the flames gaining headway
and threatening ether factories in
that vicinity, among them being the
Bonner Oil company warehouse. 2O2
Cont street, that general alarm
followed the first alarm, calling ou.
the entire fire-fighting apparatus OF
the city. The fire lasted more than
three hours and only the prompt
arrival and efficient work of the
fire department prevented serious
damage to other buildings.

COMM E2CIAl CLUB.
And Union Labor Organizations
Work Together.


Work Together.
Guthrie, Okla, Aug. 20.-it is claim
ed by Fred i. Wenner, secretary Of
the Guthrie Chamber of Commerce.
that Guthrie is the only city in the
Dor organizations hold memberships
in the Chamber of Commerce. This
plan was adopted in Guthrie nearly a
year ago and the results have been
highly satisfactory, bringing about an
understanding between the business
men and labor organizations that phi
To that time was not known.
There was considerable. argument
in favor Of making effort to =
the union men individually 10 join
the Chamber of Commerce, each to
pay the monthly dues of 81. 1t was
finally decided, however on motion
of Col. John Golobie, editor of the
Guthrie State Register, to issue mem
berships to the unions, each paying
the monthly dues and being entitle
to representation and vote at th
meetings of the Chamber of c.
merce.
The results have been far greater
than We had anticipated" said Sec
retary Wenner yesterday. Each loca
union elects man to represent it i
the Chamber of Commerce meetings,
and in addition, too, all union men
who so desire are elected to individ
ual membership. We find a closei
union between them and the mer-
chants and professional men than
had ever before existed, and the bet
ter understanding between them is
acknowledged generally as bearing
good fruit.
