 CAUSE OF FIRE
tcOntinued from Page D

(Continued from Page D the blaze started is extremely dif. flcult.
 Other witnesses in addition to Mir, Bram, were to be questioned this afternoon and more will ho called tomorrow.
 Police Superintendent William J Roach said today that police hae investigated rumors that a woman who saw the blaze had been pre- vented by three men from ringing in the alarm and had found them groundleSs. The men, he said, are known to the police and there Is no possibility of their having any mo- tive in wishing to delay an alarm.
 Losses by Fire
 The Rose Shop and the Bradley. OHara buildings, both three- story structures, were destroyed Sunday night in Q spectacular blaze that for Q time threatened much of the city's business section. Marshal Lahey es- tlmated damage at $75 900 or less, but unofficial estimates went con- siderably higher.
 When firemen reached the Rose Shop, the building was in flames, and the fire had already spread to the Bradley -O'Hara building to the north. All the city's fire ape paratus, except two engines, were sent to the scene, but 1t was sev- eral hours before the fire was un- der control. The last company did not leave the scene until almost 10 o'clock Monday morning.
 Marshal Lahey declared yester- day that the fire must have been burning fiercely for a long time before the alarm was rung in at 7:lO D. m. Sunday and expressed sur. prise that the blaze had not been seen by passersby.
 A fireman was injured when the Rose Shop roof collapsed at the height of the blaze and a spectator. a nurse, suffered lacerations when she tripped over a hose.
 4 crowd of over 10000 gathered to watch firemen battle the blaze from South Main and Brook streets. Yesterday afternoon, the front wall Of the Rose Shop was torn down by order of Building Inspector John T. Hartley, who termed it a menace to public safety.

 Cardinal o'Connell said that peace would come only when man. kind asked humhly for 1t.
 Alas" he said, ''the pride of heart that seems to consume other leaders-sofne other so-cailed lead- CTS so hardened with ambition and pride even the voice of God seems unable to reach or move them to see the destruction that war brings on the world. And usually with no results other than more hatred and more destruction than before. Thank God America is at least of ficially at peace. And while all the faithful are offering prayers to God for me on this anniversary, I in my turn ask God to receive them all and to give us his protection and love and have this nation in his holy keeping"
 Asserting that Europe was 'com- pletely changed" from the Europe in which he once served the church. he said that America also had changed, and added:
 But the changes in America are conservative compared with what has happened in Europe. The great strength of Americans and the mis- sion of America is to keep what is best og its conservatism and sanity

 The middle eastern announcement confirmed the speculation that ephansom" British column Is streak lng across the vast desert wastes gar south of the main battle-ground driving for the Libyan coast in the vicinity of El Agheila in Q vast Ranking maneuver.
 Capture Prisoners
 On Che big battle-ground, the high command reported, the British garrison at Tobruk has captured D. GOO prisoners and is consolidating the gains of It's break-out attempts,
 in the big battle near Rezegh, the middle eastern command said, 8 South African force, heavily out- numbered by Axis troops, withstood an attack by German troops rushed up in trucks and supported by tanks,
 British armored forces, the com 9nuniuue said, launched 6 counter attack and drove off the German tanks with heavy losses. Losses on both sides, in fact, were heavy, the cofrmunlque said.
 Meantime the New Zealand forces moving up the coast after captur- ing Bardia and dambut is driving closer to Tobruk with the support of British tanks.
 The middle east command re- ported that in the frontier area"-- presumably the region of CapuzSo and SIdi Omar-the British have taken 1000 prisoners and many more are coming in.
 The Royal Air Force reported to- day that ll9 Axis planes have been destroyed from dawn to Nov. ia, to midnight Nov. g in the Battle os Libya,
 The maneuver involves e drive across more than 400 miles, half by desert track from Jarabub to Gialo and the remainder of the distance to the coast, by highway,

 Commenting on Q German high command assertion that an attempt ed British landing had been re- pulsed, the ministry said:
 ~The enemy is hetraying anxiety regarding our intentions concerning the coast of occupied territory and hopes. by making exaggerated claims to elicit information which, however, will be withheld from him.
 ''T0day's item in the German com munique probably refers to the ac- tion mentioned"
 (The German eommunique said that the attempted British landing had been repuIsed Sunday night or early Monday mornlng).
