FIRE DESTROYS
TULL'S CORNER
Sunday Night Blaze Causes Heavy
Loss to Proprietors Of City's
Pioneer Store

The general merchandise stock of
the J. E. Tull Co., Inc, was totally
destroyed by fire which broke out
in the rear of their store at Second
and Yakima streets about IL O'Clock
Sunday night. The alarm was
promptly turned in and within
few moments two streams of water
were playing on the fire which,
famed by brisk breeze was spread
ing rapidly toward the front of the
store and endangering the First
National Bank and the Kennewick
Hardware buildings on adjoining
corners.
After an hour of hard work, DUR
ing which they were hampered by
lack of water pressure, the fire boys
had the blaze beaten out, but not
until two.thirds of the building had
fallen in and practically every dol
lars worth of goods rendered worth
less.
The origin of the fire is a mys-
terry. AS there had been no fire in
the store for twenty-four hours pre-
vious, it is probable that the blaze
started from the wiring or from
mice getting at the stock Of matches.
Mr.. Tull estimates that he had
in stock dry goods, shoes and gro
ceries to the value of $25, 1000 and
that the building was worth 50 900.
The loss is about two-thirds covered
by insurance, carried principally
through Stanton's Insurance Office.
The building was one of the first
commercial houses to be erected
in Kennewick after the water was
turned into the canal, being built
by Johnson & Fullerton in 1908.
Mr.. Tull has had control of the
business since 1905 and, with Mrs.
Tull and his brother, Stanley Tull,
has built up one of the largest vol
umes of trade in this section. The
company was incorporated last year.
Full adjustment of the insurance
has not yet been made, so Mr.. Tull
is not in position to speak of his
plans for the future. There is little
reason to doubt. however, that
modern building will be erected on
the Tull corner, as this is one of
the most desirable locations in the
os%xr
