Siirroiiiinlntt Property In Mncli Dunuer but Nnvcil by 12ncrgcle Work on the 1'nrt of Firemen 1. dm 1 (Imnted at 915,000. At fivo o'clock yesterday afternoon tho livery stable of Henry C. Smith In Me chanics lano burned for tho third time, nnd dense columns of black smoke lifting itself skyward made It appear as though a whole block In the heart of Burlington's business district wns threatened with total destruction. As though by maglo tho Bmoko and flames burst from under tho roof of tho livery building, where many tons of liny wero stored, ajid be fore the flro department had really got to work it was In tho midst of a veritable Inferno. Tho flro was as short lived as It was active, for an hour later u wns under complete control; the smoko nnd flames had disappeared, and tho hundreds of peo plo that had gathered from everywhere were wending their ways homeward. The livery stable and Its contents, with tho exception of the 20 horses and II wagons of different types, nro a toti.1 loos Last evening Mr. Smith estimated his loss nt about Jld.Wni. The building and con tints were Insured, but not to their full Anluo because of the high lnsuranco rates. The place has long been considered a flro fnp. All the other property that wns damaged was fully covered by Insurance. Although the Intense heat warmed the windows In the Hay ward block and tho two adjoining blocks west, owned by Brownell & Hawley; damaged the news room of tho Dally News; charred tho rear of the Craven and Henderson hlocks nn Church street nnd partially i destroyed a small barn In the rear of the livery stable, owned by Brownell fi Hawley, the total outside loss Is not considered large. The owners and cccupnnfs of these buildings, as well as the buildings facing on College street, South Wlnooskl avenue, Main street and Church street, have no complaint to make, and consider that they were lucky In escaping loss Oil I ni.V OF THE FIRE. Newsboys, It is thought, smoking In the small barn of Brownell & Haw lpy, located In tho rear of the Smith stable and with entrances from Main street nnd Mechanics lane, started the fire. The boys bad been playing In the loft, nnd it wns they who gnvo the alarm to employes In the Dally News ptess room, which adjoins the barn. H C. Smith and some of his employes, who were seate.i In front of the stable, ln-nrd the news and ran down the alley to Investigate. Learning that bis stable wns In danger of burning, Mr. Smith hurried bnck, falling down twice. Then began thp work of sav ing tho 20 horses and the carriages The horses were all gotten out but by tho tlmo that the fourteenth wagon had been rolled out the stable wns n roaring mass of lames nnd several carriages were destroyed. Mr. Smith did not know last evening how many were lost. At the Dally News building the em ployes were actively nt work. A larK" rubber covel mg was placed over the press, and typo and other movable property was partpd to a placo of safety. The olllce furnituie wns moved to the sidewalk. In a small shed ad Joining the Brownell fi- llnwiey barn, where It Is supposed the fire originated, weie stored "t mils of print paper. Six of the rolls were pushed to a place of safety, but tho remaining rolls were ruined by water. C W. Brow-noil snld last evening that his barn ivn empty and that he could not imagine how a lire could start there unless it wns originated by newsboys. A mystorv puzzling both firemen nnd Mr. Brownell Is how the fire from this barn could bo coin- munlcntoii to the Smith stable, as th. latter structure was covered with thick metal sheathing. The flames In nn In credibly short time, however, pene trated through this sheathing and mnde their way Into the hay mow of the Smith stable. Then, like a vol cano, It crackled and roared In seem ing glee, and neither water nor chemi cals could stop It. HOW THE FIRE WAS rOFOHT. The fire alarm clock Mopped at Just five o'clock, and three minutes later the flro department had time streams on tho small stablo In the rr.ir of tho Brownell ,t Hawley block, wlare, it Is believed, the conflagration started. From a study of Bui Muslim's fire dis tricts, tho department knew what to ex pei t when they saw n fire the size of yesterday's, '"'' !ls fust as the men arriv ed hose was strung from every conceiv able quarter. Win n tho livery stablo burst Into flames it be. -unc i vldent that the firemen ouijlit to cnufine ttclr efforts tc saving the neUlib'irlng property, nnd this tli 'y did so v.. II that nothing but praise of their work wis heard. In a short lime M stream) who playing on nnd around the flu-, The first three weie i-1 111 at wmk lliniuuh the alley way between the Brownell fi Hawley and tho Haywiird blocks. Tho firemen soon had the fire In the small stable un der control and wero protecting the Dally News piopcitv. Two streams which had belli run tl, rough Ward's b.irbi-r shop were protecting the le'ir of tho Craven block, while two other streams i'-(re covering tho roofs and upper parts of the building. This torvuil to check tho flro so that Ilessej's store did not even fiel the smoke and the Church street ten.in's were not damngiil beyond that dom by water. The block Is notnlng but it tinder box and onlv heroic efforts eould havo picvi tiled tbe spread of flames In ibis direction. On the roof of Jones ,t sham's block nnmher streum was at work and, al though the e-irnlcp was jcveral times nblaze from tin. Intense heat, the dam ago ii,ii was sllghl. Down boiow the block ninl between the Star Restaurant nnd the livery stnblo a. buncn of fire men were having the hottest time of their lives nnd It looked for a tlmo as though thov must give up. The flames burst nut and It seemed us though tho Mreams of water had no effect hut tho firemen finally won out, but not until 'apt. I.vnch of Station No, r nail nis arms sce.rched so that they will bet of no o.'c fi r several days. Thieo nnro Hues of hose, wero run through Mechanics lane from Church Mrect and they did elfectlv.i work In Keeping the fire from spnndlng north. The heat threatened the wooden building at the end of the street nnd tho wnter was kept divided between niu flro and the other propeity The flro proof shutters on the Ftee Press book bindery stopped the blain effectively, but at times thn hont was so intense that wntor had to bo turned on them. Two morn linen of hoeo wero run In from tho corner of South I Wlnoi.i-lil nvtnuo and Collego street and thesu prevented tho spread of flames to the east. The lone nnd fehurt of the story Is that tho firemen coinplotely surrounded tho fire and won out. OTHER BUILDINGS IN DANOUIl. Tho wind blew south by east, enrry In tho smoko nnrt ' rindors ovor Mnln streot nnd Tho 'Strong thcutro. Al though thn buildings of tho Frco Prosn association nro directly ncrosn tho nl loy from tho biirnnd stnblo, as nro tho roars of other buildings facing on Col lpfte sttcot between Church streot nnd South Wlnooskl avonuo, nono of thorn wtut In much dnnger because of tho direction of tho wind. Tho occupants of all these buildings, though, closed tho flro shutters and kept closo watch of the Itames. Automobiles in tho garage of tho Vermont Molor company, faclntf em South Wlnooskl nvenue ntin with tho rear on Mechanics lano, wero wheeled out of both tho front and bnck en trances. Some of tho machines worn run over tho hoso lying on Collcgo streot, against orders of tho firemen. Property m tho shoo shops In tho ronr of tho J. B. Henderson block, Church streot and Mechanics lane, was removed, and hoso wns strum? through Ward's barber shop In tho Cravon block, soaking tho floor with wnter. As the smoke was wafted high In tho air and to tho southward nono of tho adjoining buildings was dam aged by it. On the top of Tho Stronrr theatre employes woro stationed wrth hoso nnd pails of water. For a short time the men wprc obscured from v'cw from the street by tho smoko. CAT RESCFES KITTENS. A cat owned by M. J, Lundervlllo, tho Main street groceryman, proved to bo one of tho horoes of tho occasion. This tabby hnd four kittens stored away In tbe Brownell-Huwloy barn nnd she saved them all, bringing them ono by one to the Lundervlllo atoro. Tab by was not afraid of water, nnlso or people, but with head and tail erect she walked through the crowd, Intent only on saving her little ones. PROPERT. LOSS HEAVY. Mr. Smith will to-day be doing busl nes from his blacksmith shop, which Is across the street from where his livery stable stood. Tho telephone number Is 1270. Although all of the horse.s nnd II wagons were saved, about everything else of value was devoured by the names. Tho men had Just returned from a funeral and all of the landaus, each of which costs n thousand dollars or more, wero In tho barn and every one was lost. The sleighs, a large niriber of carriage's, every harness and even the bitch ropes were lost. The unly entire outfits saved were live rlrs which were out at the tlmo. The horses were yesterday afternoon taken down to tho stable of B. F White for temporary keeping.
