 By this time the building was ob scured by dense clouds of. smoke, the cellar was a furnace and the flames were gaining headway. Up the air shaft the flames swept to the roof, sending forth great clouds Of sparks into the air and giving the impression that the building was doomed. In the opinion of experts all that saved it was the extra heavy brick walls between stores and apart ments and the efficient work of the firemen, early handicapped by appara- tus being at other fires. The big aerial truck was sent to the scene to be used in case of emergency.
 Fire Breaks Out on Church St.
 The fire had not been gotten under control when a request for apparatus was received for the fire at the plant of the New Britain Ice Corp. and H. lumination of the sky in that direction caused many to depart in that direc- tion. Hook & Ladder Go. No. and several special details were left at the Reynolds building in charge of Capt. Eugene F. Barnes. One line of hose was still in use at the building today to wet down the smoldering em- bers
 T Reynolds estimates that damage tc the building will exceed $2,OOO. Ten ants will suffer heavily from smoke and water. Gordon Brothers were unable to estimate their loss today Their heaviest loss will be in potatoes it is estimated, the storage place fol them being in the hottest of the fire Reynolds and Gordon Brothers re- port their losses covered by insur' ance.

ment The run over the dark coun- try roads was made in forty minutes. As the out-of-town apparatus rolled into the city, showing signs of hard run. they were met with cheers.
 Conferring with Chief Dame and other local officials, the visitors were put to work immediately, thereby re- leasing several pieces of local appara- tus in case of further alarms. Be- cause of knowledge of the city and conditions it was deemed advisable to reserve local apparatus for respond ing to further alarms.
 It was after midnight before the visiting apparatus was freed from duty and left for home. Hot coffee, sandwiches and other refreshments were served at headquarters, in the various fire stations, stores and pr1- vate homes.
 So great was the tax on the fire alarm system that the apparatus ran down early in the evening, tying ur the various boxes and big Baptist church bell temporarily. Building Inspector Arthur N. Rutherford got iI touch with City Electrician George Cooley, the mechanism was wound uI with the aid of volunteers in time tc send out the military call.
 Physicians volunteered their ser vices to care for injured and take charge of the pulm motors. Drs. J. l. Kelly and Waterman Lyon were on the scene early and accompanied the apparatus to several of the fires. A call for aid came from 26 Maple street where it was reported that Ed ward Cole, a volunteer in the hand ling of hose. had collapsed from ar overdose of smoke. shortly after ar irving home. With pulmotor in his car, Building Inspector Rutherford rushed to the scene. The police am bulance in charge of Policemen Fred erick Wagner, Charles Johnson and Matthias Rival was sent out.
