MYSTERIOUS FIRE
Flames Starting in Unoccupied

FIRE ENGINE BROKE DOWN
Special Dispatch to Every Evening

Laurel. Aug. Ga fire of undeter-
mined origin, that started IN an unoccu-
pied tenant house. in the rear of the home
of Charles NJ Pusey, that fronts on Market
street. Mt o clock this morning. destroyed
five dwellings, garage and consumed tour
automobiles and four hogs, before the
flames were gotten under control. After
the local fire company had gotten the
flames checked, using gasoline fire
engine, the engine broke down and re-
fused TO work.
The fire was discovered by Night
Officer Hanson He turned IN an alarm
but the fire whistle failed to work. For
tunatelv. there was a passenger and
freight train lying at the depot, and the
engineers of the two locomotive blew
several sharp blasts until they had aroused
the citizens.
By the time the fremen got their ap-
paratus working, and water playing on
the flames, the tenant house where the
fire had started haG been practically
consumed with four hogs IN n rear pen,
and the flames had spread to the garage
of Mitchell and Ohphant There were
several cars stored in the garage and all
but four we're rescued. Two of the cars
burned were the property of a + Herans.
The flames spread to a dwelling owned
by the late G. W Knowles and TO three
small frame buildings in the rear of \.
b. Herans wheelwright shop BY this
time the firemcn had gotten several streams
on the flames and aided by scores of
volunteers checked the flames.
Almost Immediately after the danger
was over, the engine baked and broke
down This gave rise TO suspicion that
some one had tampered with it. An
investigation of the breakdown will be
made. II was reported TODAY.
The fire burned for nearly three hours,
but no one was injured, but the fire COM
pany had some lines of hose burned,
that were laid too close TO the burning
buildings The firemen did good work
with the apparatus, and under the cir
cumstances are deserving of due credit.
The loss is estimated at about $4,000

A Canadian Atlantic Port, Aug. g.
Search was made in Canadian waters by
government vessels today for a German
submarine which since Friday, has des-
troyed five sailing ships and the Standard
Oil tanker Luz Blanca sunk yesterday
after q running fight 40 miles of the coast
of Nova Scotia. Except in the case Of the
tanker two of whose crew were killed by an
an explosion Of torpedo al hands took 70
small boats and reached shore safely.
Reports by officers Of the sailing vessels
attacked Indicated that the U-boat had
been away from home waters many
months This was shown BY the looting
Of the British schooner DOrnfOntein, from
which the raider took aboard a six months
stock Of provisions and clothing Other
ships were forced to give up such stores as
were desired bv the enemy craft
The U-boat kept right after other VIC
tins from the moment It stopped the
Dornfontaln, four-master, on her maiden
voyage out of st. John, n b., off Grand
Manan, Friday morning. The German
commander did not waste torpedoes or
bombs on the Britisner, which he set
afire. but the hulk later was picked up by
fishing vessels and towed TO port
Proceeding thence into the sea track
followed by f1shIng schooners. the boat
sank four with bombs. The last Of these
was the Nelson A., hallIng from lar-
mouth, n ,
While finishing the JOB the submarine
sighted steamer IN the distance. and set
out after her al full speed Whether this
vessel was the Luz Blanca, the crew Of the
Nelson A. WAS unable to say When the
tanker was attacked she showed fight,
but the range of her guns was not equal
TO that OF the I-boat which kept back far
enough TO be out Of danger. The tanker
then gave the enemy hard tight however
A torpedo tore through the stern Of the
Luz Blanca and she settled quickly Even
when it was plain TO he J--bOat command
der that the vessel was disabled and going
down and while the crew was starting of
IN three small boats, the U-boat let loose
her deck guns. but the shots were Wild.
