I The cause of the (ire is unknown but
'judging from the "lay of the land" and
the great headway the blnze had gain-
d in such a short time before the
j alarm was given the general suppos
ition is that it-was the work of a "lire
bug,' but in the absence of evidence
nothing can be done by the property
o.vners but bear the losses.
Had it not been for the .stillness of
the night much more property would
have beu.ii destio.yed, us the lire de
partment was rendered almost helpless
owing to the l.ick of water. An invest!
gatioti revealed the cause a gitte on
the water main, at the corner of Web
ster street and Fourth avenue almost
closed. From information gained it is
learned that this gale was closed some
lime ago when the repairs were being
made' on the iniiin. Just "who is re!
sponsible for it being in this condition
is a matter of conjecture, one deeply
regreted by all parlies I'eiieerned.
