Daniel Romans Place on
Brook Street Has Sec
ond Attack
LATE HOMEGOERS
DISCOVERED FLAMES
Last Nights Loss to Build.
ing and Stock Less
Than $500

The fire department had another early
morning call to-day, when fire OF un-
known origin gutted the little store on
''the lodges" off Brook street, owned by
Michael Good and conducted by Daniel
Romans. The total loss will not ex-
ceed $500, amply covered by insurance,
it is said, in the G. Fl. Pape agency OF
this city. II was the second fire that
has visited the store in Ii months. On
the evening of March last, an outbreak
which the fremen fought with chemi-
Gals, did good deal of damage.
Around 1890 late homegoers discov-
cred flames issuing from the roof of the
story and a half structure. A general
alarm turned i'm from box l6 at the
corner of Maple avenue and North Sem
mary streets called out the entire de-
partment. At first the men applied
chemicals along with the water, but the
former was abandoned as ineffective and
two streams of water were directed to-
ward the building. The fire seems to
have originated in the rear end of the
store. From that point it swept through
the first story and then rose to the loft
above. 1t was hard fire to subdue,
for the building is constructed of flimsy
material and an interior design that pro-
vided for a labyrinth of partitions did
not serve to facilitate fire fighting. 1t
was simply case of dumping water
into the building until every sign of fire
was quenched- A half hour after the
general alarm sounded, the about signal
was given.
Chief Gladding went to Brook street
again this morning to look the ruins over
by daylight. He said he wasn't prepared
to give his opinion on the origin of the
fire. Mr.. Romans is said to carry insur-
ance of $500 on his merchandise. Prac-
tically everything of value was de-
stroyed. The remainder of the loss is
on the structure, which is also well in
sured.
When the horse-drawn apparatus
started back to the station, the long
pole between the horses broke near the
axle. There was some little delay in
patching up the break and afterwards
it developed that the pole had cracked
on the way down to the fire. 1t win be
repaired at once.

enormous business of Sll9,493Sl in the

IL the largest business done by any post

of the increase.
The cost of city delivery service was

NEEDS TIME TO DIsMEMBER.
New Haven Railroad Ready to Give Up
Outside interests Soon as Possible.

New York, Jan. 24.-Though ready to
give up ownership and management of
its outside interests as fast as this can
be done, the New York, New Haven g.
Hartford railroad company will require
considerable time to separate itself
from the properties involved, said How
ard Elliott, chairman of the board of di-
rectors of the company, at dinner
given last night by John A. Sleicher,
publisher of periodical.
Every director of the company, said
the speaker, was keenly interested in
having the New Haven railroad run in
a "first-class business manner" and the
desire of the management to meet the
wishes of the public served by the rail-
road and the views of the federal gov
ernment, had been shown by its readi-
ness to give up all control of the Bos-
ton & Maine.
The agreement to withdraw from all
participation in the management of the
Boston & Albany road was further proof
OF this, said Mr.. Elliott.

To-day Is Charged to
the Suffragettes
"A CARETAKER CUT
ANOTHER BOMB
He Got Away Just Before
the Explosion Wrecked
the Place

Glasgow, Scotland, Jan. PA bomb
outrage, which is believed by the police
to have been carried out by militant
suffragettes, to-day destroyed the exten-
sive conservatory in the Glasgow botan-
ical gardens, known as the Kibble crys-
tai palace. The great glass roofs and
sides of the structure were blown into
thousands of pieces, and many of the
valuable plants housed there were
ruined.
A caretaker of the place succeeded in
severing the fuse of second bomb just
before the first one exploded, and he had
narrow escape from serious injury.
Footprints and portions of food, which
were found in the bushes, indicated that
the perpetrators waited some time for
an opportunity to set off the bombs.
Near the footprints. which were those
of women, black silk veil was picked
up. Among the remains of the repast
were an empty champagne bottle and
some cake.
