$4,000 DAMAGE
CAUSED BY FIRE
IN WAREHOUSE
Firemen Battle Stubborn
Blaze at Peoples Out
fitting Co.

Flames that broke out early today
in a warehouse OF the Peoples Out
fitting Company at 417-19 South
Illinois street, destroyed the third
floor of the brick building and
hundreds Of pieces Of furniture. the
total damage estimated at $4,000.
Firemen were blocked in then eff
forts to reach the flames by heavy
steel shutters, locked on the inside.
At one time firemen attempted to
bring water lines up the stairway
Of the warehouse, but we're forced
to retreat, when flames became too
nenacing.
Prevent Blaze Spread
The two-alarn fire, said by fire
officials to have been caused by
sponstaneous combustion, broke out
near the elevator shaft on the third
floor. where large amount Of
Grated furniture was stored.
Police said they had attempted to
trace smoke in the vicinity, but
were unsuccessful.
Firemen we're able to prevent
spread of the blaze to other build
ings, including a frame warehouse
of the company a few feet distant.
Although discovered after it was
well under way, fire fighters were
able to conf1ne the blaze to the
third floor, but furniture on the
other two floors and basement suf-
fered heavy water damage.
Face Draft Hazard
Finally able to open some Of the
building shutters, firemen faced a
further hazard when back draft
caused the flames to shoot out the
openings.
Fire Chief Harry Voshell took
personal charge Of the fire fighting,
aided by several battalion chiefs.
Radio Patrolmen Roy Pope and
Harry O'Mara reported to fire Off
Gals that they had smelled smoke
in the vicinity three hours before
the blaze was discovered.
The same structure was damaged
by fire in 1908, when occupied by
the Paper Stock company. Fire
men then fought the flames an en-
tire night.

CHICAGO, May 10. While
authorities in London and Phil
adelphia rounded up men charged
with helping him swindle middle
class Englishmen out of millions
Of dollars, John (Jake the Barber)
Factor continued today to elude
detectives, who admitted they hoped
he would surrender here and end
the international game Of hide and
seek.
Reports that Factor had hired
5carface AL Capone to protect him
from gunner, who were trying to
hdnap him for ransom, caused the
detectives to turn their search to
known gang lSaunts and hideouts.
Police, however believed Factor
would surrender, now that it prac-
tically has been settled that he can
be released on bail.
Bail to Be Provided
It had been contended Factor
could not be released when arrested
in this country on the English
charges, but his attorneys gained
admissions from federal authorities
that he might.
Jake the Barber" was said now
to be the only one at large of the
men sought in connection with the
sale of more than 100000 worth
Of fake oil and mine stocks to
clergymen, widows and workmen Of
the middle class in England.
Several men were arraigned Mon
day in London in connection with
the swindle. In Philadelphia, Fac
tors partner, Harry Green, began

dition to England.
Feud Report Is Denied

Among reports circulated since

smart and sophisticated. 1t sure is
a light weight as a play.
