BISHOPS LODGE BADLY
DAMAGED BY FIRE

Yesterday morning the people Of
Santa Fe were startled by the fire
siren and there was much conster
nation when il was learned that the
fire was az Bishops Lodge the beau
tiful summer resort about two mile
from the city. The city fire de
partment responded to the call and
was soon on the ground and with a
large number of volunteers worked
hero cally to suppress the fire.
The fire, which was in one Of the
main buildings, was caused it is
said by defective flue. Bucket
lines were organized and chemicals
used very freely. At one time IT
was feared that all OF the building
was doomed but through the un-
ceasing work OF the volunteers the
larger part of the building was saw
ed. Several shots OF dynam tie were
used and as there is no water system
at the Lodge the volunteers are to
be commended in their excellent
work of saving part of the building
1t is understood that most of the
loss was covered by insurance
