FIRE DESTROYS ICE HOUSE
Loss on House and Ice Will Total
35000 It Is Estimated
Last Thursday afternoon between
five and six oclock the west one of
the companys two big ice nouses at
this place was practically destroyed
by fire The ice house was built of
wood and was covered with a tin
roof Both the railroad companys
and the citys fire fighters prompt
ly responded to the alarm and did
all possible but the building was
practically a total loss by the time
the flames were subdued
The character of construction and
the weak water pressure handicapped
the fire companies and prolonged the
fight to get the fire under conrtol
Both company and city departments
however did all they could under the
ratiier unfavorable circumstances
The Loss Nearly 5000
more convenient and practical than
the present plan
The company now stores about
000 tons of ije at this place but
the demand is fcr at least one half
more than that quantity
Sparks from the switch engine are
ed the fire Officials do not place
much credence in the spontaneous
combustion theory
