broke out about 9 o'clock this morn-
ing was the means of calling out the
entire First District fire department.
and the assembling of a large crowd
in W all street.

The tire was first discovered when
clouds of smoke began to pour up the
basement stairs and through the floor,
into the shoe store. The department
was called out. anti the firemen had
small difficulty in subduing the blaze.
which was in a pile of papers and rub

clouds of smoke belched forth front
the building for over half an hour

one. Two lines of chemicals were
trained on the blaze.

The cause of the. tire is uncertain.
A smoke pipe passes directly over the
paper pile. and it is thought that' a
slight defect in this pipe may have
started the blaze. No other cause
could be discovered. No damage to
speak of. was created. Had the blaze
broken out in the night. there would
