Closet Fires Most Numerous.

In some fires the blaze was kindled in
the clothes closet and in others in the
bedroom or the sitting room. Bedroom
and closet fires were the most numer-
Gus. however. In many cases couch
or other piece Of upholstered furniture
was saturated with some innammable
Iiouid and the blaze arranged 10 start
under il.
When the blaze started in a clothes
closet the tenant was generally directed
TO send his more valuable clothing 10 a
tailor until after the fire was extin-
gIIished. When the object was to burn
insured furniture the tenants furniture
was frequently moved out and he
bought more on the instalment plan 10
replace il. The instalment furniture
was burned up and the tenant did his
best to avoid paying any more install
ments.
So far as his Investigations went last
night. Mr.. Weller could not say that
any representatives. Of any insurance
company were implicated. The only
statements made by "Tzzy' which up
TO that time were susceptible OF the
slightest Confederation implicated only
mechanics" and public adjusters.
"Izzv" came here from Russia in
1907. According 10 his own story. he
had been setting blazes-for about three
years and a half. or about year longer
than Mr.. Weller had supposed. He

In every case the insured man was a
party 10 the crime. Nevertheless, his
evidence would be most valuable as
corroboration for "Izzy's" testimony.
and II may seem best TO let those who
contcntcd themselves with only a
single FIRE 20 free. in order that they
may testify against the mechanics
and the adjustors. whose crime IS more
serious.
