Home of Peter Benlncasca, at
25 Chapel Street. Saved by
Neighbors, As the Fire Alarm
Failed to Strike Prom’plly
A fire of unknown origin caused
several hundred dollars damage yes-
terday afternoon at the borne of Peter
lit-nintttsca. at 2.3 f'bapcl street, Nur-
walk.
An effort
alarm fr
was made. to turn in an
l Box 34 at the corner of
llarbor venue. and Chapel street by
Charles ’ayne. a member of Hope
llosc Company. but there was no res-
ponse. Ilut for the timely assistance
at neighbors. Benlncasca's house
would probably have been beyond saw
lng by the time the fire department
arrived. Box 33 at the corner of liar-
bor avenue and Orchard street also
failed to give any results.
A boy was rlcspatebed to Oscar ll.
llanks' stable and from there the alarm
was telephoned to the Main street tlr'o-
house. A pair of horses was also sent
front the Banks stable to the Hope
ilmro quarters.
.lnbn ll; Iloyt. stitwrlntendcnt of the
city's fire alarm system, when asked
tmlay why the bell had not rung when
the box was pulled. claimed that he
was looking for "trouble" on the sys-
tem at the little and had 'cut out" the
section for the time being. lie also
said the new switchboard will be in
working order tomorrow.
The fire at the l'lcnincusctt home no
curred on the second Ilnnr of the
house, in which was a tihr‘lstmas tree,
'a piano and a considerable quantity of
clothing. The, room was not used for
living purposes. At first it was report-
cd that the tire had been caused by a
lighted candle on the tree. but a mem-
ber of the family states that this was
not the case. llt‘ bad no idea what
could have caused the blaze. The alarm
quickly spread throughout the neigb
l-orbood and ”iv flames Wore gotten
undt- r control by a bucket. brigade. Ilc-
tore the bran was out one side of the
piano had been burntd badly and the
room anti its contents severely domain

at between $300 and $400.
