East Oregonlan said last night: One of the most dastardly crimes this town has ever suffered was com mitted last nigh: when the Alta Hou and stable were maliciously set afire by an unknown wretch. By his act h'3 Impel lleiV the lives oi a score of peo ple within the hotel, burned eight Worses to death and brought financial ruin to'Sam Bltner, owner of the property. Tho fire was started about 11:30 last nlsht and te best witness to the cir cumstances surrounding the origin Is Pete Schafer, a young man who was sitting with Miss Town on the front porch of the Johnnie Town home at the time. Firebug Was Seen. According to Schafer.he and MIfs Town saw a man come stealthily down the street from the side of the Alia House just a moment before the fire was seen. The fellow tip-toed until almost In front o" the young people, whom he did ncl see, and he then broke Into a run. On reaching Webb street he turned towards the business section, Ftll! running. " A Disastrous liliizc. The fire was started in a shed be tween the Alta House and the feed stable. It was a shed In which slops from the hotel were placed and it con nected the hotel with the stable. By reason of Its location it was the Ideal place for a man to start a fire If ho wished to burn the stable and hotel. From the little shed the flames spread rapidly to both the stable and the hotel, though the barn burned the faster. The barn extended from one end of the block to the other and the entire structure was an easy prey to the flames. Being of dry lumber and filled with hay. it burned like powder when the fire once gained headway. Eight Horse Burned. When the fire started the big sta ble was completely filled with horse and vehicles. Nearly 80 head of horse.- were tied In .the stalls, every stal! lacing taken. Those who arrived on the srene early stw the peril of the horses and rushed In to free them. Hut the fire was so strong nt the ex- -erne west end of the barn that heir could not reach the frantic animals ind elRht of them were burned In the!" stalls. By hard and plucky work on the part of eaper volunteers the re mainder nf the horses were goiter loose and they ran out of the bnrn. Alta II'mwc Destroyed. While the five made slower head ny on the hotel It was no less suit . It dest 'UcUveness. Commencing t the southwest coiner the flames ate heir way Into the hntlry and within i fvy minutes tho old farm hotel was 'mined. Though' seme of the frame '.tlj' standing the ruin.
