evidence disclosed in the investixa-
ton has conv,uced me that the Are was
started by two former employees who
were disgruntled because they were dis
charged from the estate said Doreen.
ON Premises Bcfore Fire.
My inspectors have been able to es-
tablsh that the two men were not at
their homes shortly before the flames
we're discovered. On the contrary. cvt-
dence has been obtained that these men
were actually on the premises two hours
before the fire started. The men live in
Little Italy. an Italian district on the
East side.
'"rhe men we've discharged after an
alteration with the ground foreman
The controversy involved their work and
the amount OF wages due"
Doreen asserted that the former en-
ployees have been on the Rockefeller
grounds several times since being dis
charged. Representatives of the Fire
Marshal's office believe these visits were
made By the men to familiar.ze them
selves with the surroundings.
Tracks found in the snow and the sof.
ground indicated to the inspectors that
two men had set fire to the structure
and then had run away.
In the absence of word to-day from
Mr.. Rockefeller the fire loss is estimated
at 100000. Employees OF Mr.. Rookie
Teller related "reminiscences to-day TO
