Fire of undetermined origin con
suming 500 tons of hay in' the hay
market at Thirty-sixth and L streets,
st 2 p. m. yesterday threatened to
spread to the Cudahy packing jilant
just south of the raging flames.
Hay was being unloaded' from box
cars on the side track when flames
Dursi iorin at tne east ena ot the
nayvpuc. Migu. wina spread the
flames rapidly and soon the entire
market was a blading furnace. The
damage was estimated at $15,000.
The first alarm was turned in at
1 :30 p. m. arid the second at 2 p. m.
Apparatus was called from Omaha
to work on the flames and keep
them from spreading to the packing
plant if possible.
One box car on the side track was
exploded wheo the fire spread to the
heart of its contents and burst into
flames.
A f r rt rj- tli firm ilAnirtmonf
'had the fire under, control. More
than a dozen lines of hose were
stretched to the scene, and streams
of water were poured into the seeth
mass of flames from every direc
tion. The cross-town street cars
were routed over the Q street car
liar and turned back to the city ai
Twenty-sixth and Q streets on, ac
count of the track to the L street
terminus being crossed by the many
hnes of hose. v
The Cudahy Packing company1 J
lire department was in readiness 10
protect the plant from flying sparks,
which were numerous on account di
the high wind. At a late hour
VVedncsday afternoon the fire was
still smouldering, and a number of
streams of water will be played upon
the fire until entirely extinguished,
according to a statement of the bat
talion chief of the South Side. -
