BLAZE MOST .STUBBORN
PATRONS OF PICTTTRE THEATER
ARE EXCITED.
lire mm Extinguish Conflagration In
Basement of Liquor Store Only
After Hour or Fighting.
"" t '
Fire breaking out In a basement oc
cupied by tho O. I. C. liquor store, at
249 Morrison street, at S o'clock yea
terday afternoon, gave the fire de
partment an hour of tha hardest tussl
ing that It has had In many months.
Though there waa little fire, dense
clouds of smoke, filling tho basement
where the blaxo was confined, and
pouring out upon the street, made con
ditions so Intolerable that reliefs or
firelighters could stay at their work
but a few minutes.
' First knowledge of the' fire came
when a puff of amoke broke through
the floor Into tha Oh Joy Theater,
which la over the west basement of the
liquor store. The house waa full or
patrons, mostly children, and there waa
some excitement, but Patrolman . Sims,
who chanced to be In the theater, as
sisted the management In quieting the
crowd, which filed out without Injury
to anyone.
For an hour the firemen fought
against tha dense amoke. before they
were able to locate the small blaze.
It had started in some paper packings
in the basement and had begun to eat
the lloor and Joists when It waa ex
tlngulahed. Four feet of water atood
In the cellar when the firemen had
finished.
E. E. Cohen, manager of the liquor
company, waa unable to make an esti
mate of hla loss, but thought that it
might run up to I1S.000. cornered by
Insurance. The building Is owned by
the Flelshner Estate and la not seri
ously damaged. The theater waa seri
ously damaged superficially, but can
be renovated at email expense and will
reopen eoon. A large atock of llquora
waa stored In the basement, and a
barrel of high-proof alcohol caused
aome trepidation among the firemen,
but waa found to be stored In a place
remote from the blaze.
A cable of the Pacific Telephone
Company waa aevered. and between 50
and 100 telephones are out of com
mission, but repairs will be completed
by tonight. Other business houses In
the vicinity were slightly damaged by
amoke and water.
Fully 2000 persons gathered In the
neighborhood of the fire, and a large
aquad of police under Sergeants Goltz.
Cole and Harms were kept busy In
holding them back.
When the alarm rang In at the
Fourth-street house, the men on duty
there were engaged In fighting a small
blaxe which had broken out In their
quarters from some unknown cause.
Leaving Fireman Gavin with Babcock
extinguishers to contend with It the
other men hastened to their stations
and made tha run to the fire. When
they returned Gavin had conquered the
blase.
