RED CROSS MEMBERS
WORKED UNDER FIRE
Blaze in Old City Hall Where
Society Has lis
Headquarters
AUTOS AND TROLLEYS
BLOCKED FIREMEN

Members of the Red Cross worked
under fire early this afternoon" when
it was discovered that the Old City
Hail, being used by the society for it's
headquarters, was threatened by
flames. The Red Cross workers at
once telephoned to the Fame and
Washington Fire Companies. The fire
was located under the first floor Of
the building, but with the aid Of the
chemical the blaze was soon extin-
guished by firemen before any serious
damage was done.
The fire caused considerable ex-
element, and to add to the confusion
a long stream of trolley cars became
stalled in Market street between
Fourth and Fifth streets. The crews
made no effort to move the cars, ac-
cording to the firemen, and a number
of automobiles that were being park
ed on the west side of the street
caused the firemen TO stop their ma
chine and wait until a patch was
opened for them. The eastern side Of
the street is torn up while the street
paving is being done and the fremen
could not use that side Of the street.
Fortunately, the fire was not seri-
Gus. otherwise the delay might have
been serious. The blaze was caused
by sparks from an open fireplace.
