The only fire In a Japanese laundry here of which there is any recent record occurred last Friday night In the Western Addition Laundry, conducted by S. Hatta. The fire was discovered by a patrolman at midnight, and, with the aid of two other policemen, he awakened 16 Japanese who were sleeping in the rear of the place. The official police and fire reports stated that the fire originated in one of the sleeping rooms In the rear of the laun dry. There was nothing to indicate In cendiarism.
