PIPE OR CIGAR BELIEVED
CAUSE OF $25, 900 BLAZE

of $3.50 M Street.

Fire. believed to have been caused
by sparks from a lighted pipe or
cigar. damaged the grocery ware
house of J. E. Dyer & Co. in the rear
of 1880 NJ street northwest, to the ex-
tent of $4,000 about 4 o'clock this
morning.
Two companies responded to a tele-
phone message from the grocery COM
pany's premises. and upon reaching
the scene found that the flames had
eaten a hole in the roof of the ware
house. Another alarm was immedi-
ately turned in, increasing the num-
Der of fire-fighting companies to
eight, and it was only after stub
born fight that the fire was extin-
guished Fire Marshal Seib was told
that workmen storing goods. in the
building yesterday afternoon were
ordered to cease smoking.
Several members of the department
recalled a similar fire in the ware
house on the morning of January g..
1914. shortly before 3 o'clock. The
blaze was started by lightning. which
struck the building. The flames
spread to the store by way of a small
bridge connecting the two buildings.
with a fireproof door, it was stated at
the time, the flames penetrated to the
store. Since that time a fireproof door
has been established on the bridge.
which. to a large extent, prevented
the blaze from reaching the store this
morning.
Private ]. H. Swami of No. engine
company was burned about the face
while fighting the fire. He received
treatment at Georgetown University
Hospital and returned to duty.

ment. which was rejected, authorizing
the appropriation of s4,000.000 for the

Took Her Arm in Trying to Get
Her to Join Party.

Albert Victor Parr, twenty eight
years old, was arrested yesterday
afternoon by Lieut.. Maurice Collins,
hack inspector. on a warrant al!eg-
ing that he assaulted Mrs. Louise
Kelly, member of the woman's bu-
reau of the police department, the
night of June 20. The assault charg-
ed is alleged to have consisted in
Parr trying to induce the woman
police worker to board his taxicab,
in which two men and woman were
passengers. and taking hold of her
arm.
Mrs. Kelly was on duty and pass
ing the corner of 18th and E streets
about IL o'clock, she stated. when a
public vehicle stopped at the curb
and the driver asked her to join the
trio in the car. telling her she would
get IS for joining the party.
Having had an amount of investi-
gative experience, Mrs. Kelly did
not become excited and shout for a
policeman. She stood her ground
long enough to get good look at the
chauffeur in order that she might be
able to identify him later on. Fully
satisfied she would be able to identify
the driver. Mrs Kelly spurned his
offer to her to join the party and left
the scene.

LOS ANGELES. Calf. June "a
Great conventions are great breeders
of great crowds. The Shrine conven-
ton at San Francisco last week, old
stagers tell me. matched even the
election convention crowds and esti-
mates as to the number of visitors
ran all the way from 250,000 to $780,
600. The correct number probably
runs close I'd 100000. and Washington
will have to care for that number of
visitors when the Imperial Council
meets there June 5, 6 and 7 of next
year.

Washington will have to match this
