The start of the blaze was sus-
picions because of the general burst
of flame. noticed by the man Who
turned in the alarm. ‘
It will be recalled that on May 17.
this year. an attempt was made to
fire the store occupied at the present
time by A. J.‘ Collins & '00.. in the old
Ely hall block. since
Frank .lncoby. This time the fire
was confined to the air shaft of the
store and the firemen had a hard fight
to keep the flames from reaching the
building proper.
Andrew J. Collins said this morning
that he could not give an estimate of
the property damage to the building
being renovated for his new store.
Neither cmild Contractor McMahon.
New roof beams will have to be
placed. a new roof will have to be put
on the fore part or the building while.
the walls will have to be put on the
fore part of the building while th‘c
walls will have to be plastered again
and the floors gone over_ where the
flames ate through them.
Chief Bogardus said this morning
that he \vm proud of his nervy bunch
0" fire fighters and reminded the re-
porter tliat it took a man with nerve
to enter through the skylight into the
heart of the blaze the way some of his
men did. He was also pleased at the
working of the two platoon system.
Asked if he thought the fire start
mi from accident or from intention.
(‘hiel‘ liogurtliis said it was a risky
lthing to say that it was incendiary.
