in the vicinity from destruction. Fire

The hotel building is owned by Gus

smoke and saw blaze curling

flames were confined to the rear of
the building, however. and that there
would be little or no danger for a

their effects. Some carried trunks

kinds of baggage. Several women
coatless and hatless sat on trunks on
the sidewalk while firemen battled
with the fire.
