OLD FACTORY BUILDING
IS DESTROYED BY FIRE

A fire, which for time was spec
tacular and threatened to destroy
the building of the C. & S. Company
in Seaman avenue, completely de-
stroyed a frame and corrugated
iron factory building owned by j..
c. Mccoy about $3.50 o'clock last
night. Several horses which were
in the stable of the c. & S. Company
adjoining the blazing building. were
saved after men had rushed through
the smoke filled building open
ed the door of the stable and lei
down the stall chains.
Quick and effective work by the
firemen saved the complete destruc-
ton of the C. & S. Company's build
ing which adjoined but was separat-
ed by a thick brick wall. A large
supply of cement was stored IN the
C. & S. structure, much or whleh
was ruined bv water.
The cause OF the fire is not known
but the entire Mccoy building was
a mass of flames when the tiremen
arrived. Huge clouds of smoke, reA
sembling an oil or asphalt fire, rosei
high in the sky and attracted hun
dreds of spectators. Upon arrival
a. the blaze the firemen turned thelT
efforts towards saving the adJoinlng
buildings. The damage is estimated
at $4,000, part of which is said to
have been covered by insurance. AS
far as could be learned the building
which was destroyed had not been
used recently but was chemical
factory at one time

Immediately following the fr~
that destroyed Pauk's body suspl-
cion attached itself to the clrcum- y
stances surrounding the case
through stories related by Gusack
to several of his neignbors. Gusack
is said to have stated that he saw
the body of his cousin burning up In
the house after he. Gusaek, had re-
turned to.the burning building from
a trip to arouse the neighbors. The
incident was suspicious because OF
the fact that there were two WIN
dows in the room where Pauk burn
ed TO death. and had he been alive
the authorities think, he would have
been able TO make an exit through
one or the other of the windows.
No definite motive has as yet been
established but the county authori-
ties and the state police are WORK
ing upon the theory of robbery.

WOULD DROP
BOOZE CHARGE
But Charged Mans Attorney
Says No, and Case is
Continued

The hearing for Clarence Witak,
of 339 Watson avenue, who was ar,
rested on Monday night charged
with manufacturing and selling
liouor in violation of the state law,
was held before Recorder Harold
e. Pickersgill in the police court
last night. After hearing the case
the recorder expressed his wiling
ness to set aside the warrant he had
issued for the search of Witak's s
home, but Attorney David I. WI
Ientz. representing the defendant,
requested an adjournment OF two
weeks because OF the interest Prose-
cutor Joseph E. Stricken has dis
played in the case and the fact that
the prosecutor is away from the city
at present. 1t is claimed that the
warrant issued by the court to CITY
Marshal Daniel ]. Dwyer for the
search of the Witak premises was
illegal. According to the law as
constructed by the defense last
night on application for searcn
warrant for a private dwelling must
be accompanied by personal knowl-
edge on the part of the applicant
that liouor is or has been on sale in
the dwelling.
ATTORNEY Wilentz succeeded In
convincing the court that while Mrs.
Isaac Germs, the complainant in the
case, might have seen the liquor In
the Witak home she had no person
al knowledge that it was being Of
fered for sale. The warrant was
therefore illegal, according to this
construction of the law. The case
was adjourned at the request or ths
defendants attorney in order to al
low Prosecutor Stricken to pass ar
opinion upon the angle in question.
Mrs. Germs accused Witak of sell
ing liquor to her husband. She con
tended that Germs was unable tt
| work because of the booze he hat
secured at the Witak home. Th'
| police descended upon the house OF
! Monday night and seized a still.
three barrels of mash and quantit,
of liquor.
