HOssfeId Trunk Concern Prac-
tically Destroyed Today. e.
Building, Stock and Machinery
Worth More Than $4,000.
ALL SUFFERED GREAT DAMAGE
The Flames Started in Base
ment and Spread Rapidly.
Owner of Factory Is in st.
Louis on a Buying Trip.

The Hossfeld trunk factory, $40
Kansas avenue, was partially destroy
ed by fire which was discovered at L
o'clock this morning. The factory &C.
cupied a three-story building, the rear
of which was Quilted by the flames
The stock and machinery of the fac
tory valued at 100000 suffered severe
loss, altho it's extent was still undeter-
mined at noon today.
The cause for the fire has not yet
been assigned by Chief Joseph Hanlon
today. All that is known is that IL
started in the cellar and was soon
sary to train eleven lines of hose upon
the building.
No exact estimate of the loss could
be made this morning The building,
owned by Reuben Knowles, 305 West
Sixth street, was estimated to be
worth about $4,000. The value of
the stock, according ts D. E. Rose,
1927 Western avenue, vice president
of the company, was about $5O, wv
and the machinery at about $1O,OO0.
Both stock and building were insured.
Knowles is wintering at Tampa, Fla
and George H. Hossfeld, 1927 Western
avenue, is in st. Louis on buying
trip He will return tonight
Discovered by Western Union.
The floors and rear of the building
were badly burned and the loss 10 the
stock from the water will undoubtedly
be heavy.
The fire was reported by the West
ern Union office across the street and
a general alarm was turned in. All
the fire fighting equipment of the
city was put to work and the new 800
gallon-a- minute motor pump was
placed in operation at Sixth and Kan
sas avenue along with the old steamer,
1t was 2:30 before the fire was
under control. The rear of the build
ing was a roaring mass of flames and
it was feared that it might fall. Judi
cious use of water on the front sec
ton of the building kept the fire from
spreading and the holding of the walls
saved adjoining buildings None of
the floors fell a1tho they were badly
warped and strained.
Young Hossfeld Breaks Down.
| While the rear of the building was
mass of flames the fire never mount
ed above the roof. Dense outpourings
| of wood smoke covered the down.

Archie Hossfeld, 1927 Western ave-
nue., son of the owner of the factory
arrived on the scene with Mr.. Rose
while the fire was at it's height He
/ broke down under the strain and had
