EIGHT FIRES LAID ID SACCO WORKERS Two Fire Houses Set on Fire in
 Companies Absence

Boston. Aug. 29 R-A series of fires of suspected incendiary origin and thought in Cambridge, at least. to be the work of Sacco-NanZetti sympathizers. were under investiga- ton in the two cities today while protect fire houses which suffered in four of the blazes.
 Eight inccndiary fires all within mile and half of each other kept the fire apparatus of both cities on the jump late yesterday afternoon and night and today were the sub ject Of state police inquiry.
 Two fire houses each in Cambridge and this city were set on fire during the absence of the companies at one or another of the series of blazes and under conditions which left little doubt in the minds of officials that the outbreaks were planned and ex- ecuted by the same person or group.
 Five of the fires were in Cam bridge. Two of them, those in the fire houses, were set while the ap- paratus was busy battling flames in an old barn. The fire companies no sooner had returned to find their own quarters ablaze than two chem ical plants were discovered, burning following slight explosions.
 In this city two other houses were left temporarily uncovered while the apparatus was called to a multiple alarm from the freight yards of the Boston and Maine railroad, where a storage shed was on fire.
 That fire, which was the most serious of the day, was subsequent ly pronounced incendiary by inves- tigating officials.
 In this city police protection took the form of an order sending a pa trolman to every station house the moment it was vacated by a com pany answering an alarm. In Cam bridge patrolmen were admonished to be unusually vigilant in making their rounds.
