Chief Thurston and Five of His
Men Injured In Fire At
. Union Bakery

Three firemen were badly burned
and three others, one of whom is Chief
Charles H. Thurston, slightly burned
last night when re which did damage
amounting to approximately $500
broke out at the Union Bakery, located
in the Wolters Block on Union Street,
shortly before six clock.
The injured are:
Capt. John Franco, McInerny Tract,
severe burns about the face and hands:
confined TO home.

All of the men, with the exception Of
Chief Thurston, were treated by DR..

Chief Thurston received first aid treat.
ment at the central station and was
then taken home. =
The fire started in the concrete fur.
mace room at The rear of the Union
Bakery, and although the building it.
self was not damaged, the electric mo-
Tor, the burner and the water. gas and
electric light pipes were completely
destroyed in the blaze. The loss, nc.
cording to Anton STANCE, proprietor, is
in the vicinity of $500. The property
was not covered by insurance.
II has been customary to use crude
oil in the furnace, but the scarcity of
this commodity forced Mr.. STANCE yes
terday to resort to the use of kerosene
oil. The men went to work as usual
last night, but the oil refused to flow
and II was while Mr.. STANCE was en-
deavoring to adjust matters that the
blaze shot out. =
A quantity of kerosene oil was on
the floor of the room at the time, and

put into action. 1t took little more
than half an hour to beat down the
fire, and it was during that time the

CHARGE OF ASSAULT.
.|SFORMALLYMADE

Afid0vits in the hands of the police
detectives concerning some of the
movements and apparel worn by David
c. Buick, together with other circum-
stances which caused them to believe
that Buick was the person who shot
and otherwise assaulted w. o. Ito,
driver of an auto at Red Hill two
weeks ago, resulted in formal charge
being lodged against him yesterday,
the charge being that be committed
an assault with intent to murder, main
or disfgure.
The police will bring Buick before
Judge Irwin today and will probably
ask, in case his attorney asks that bail
be set, that the amount be large. The
crime which Buick is charged with
provides for n fine, in case of conyic-
ton, of not exceeding one thousand
dollars or imprisonment at hard labor
of not more than five years.
The detective department, under CAP
tain McDuffie, has worked continuously
on the case, and its members believe
they have woven chain of cireum-
stances about the prisoner, and that
any effort to prove an alibi against this
barrier will be difficult.
At the time Buick was captured by
the police he wore hat and did not
possess n revolver. The police saw
they have affidavits from a number of
people that he was prone to wear
cap, but this cap has not been found
since the assault, and was not at his
room or places he frequented. Furth.
ermOrc, the police have located NUN
Der of cartridges for a revolver, the
former having been in the possession
of Buick not long before the assault.
During the latter part of November
Buick is alleged TO have had revolver
which no showed to q number of people
in public place, being unable at the
time to get it together after he had
taken it apart. -
There are a number of other inter.
esting pieces of circumstantial evi.
dence having to do with revolvers and
movements which the police have accu.
mnlated and substantiated by afidavits.
