Chief liutton Issues Warning Warm weather and grass fires seem to go hand in hand, and Salem people should be especial ly careful about throwing matches or burning cigarettes where they may light the grass. Fire Chief Hutton said last night, after two alarms had come in during the day on account of such fires. An alarm at 4:30 yesterday aft ernoon called the equipment to the foot of Chemeketa street, where fire had started in the grass along the river bank. By the time the firemen arrived, however, the fire had been put out by the efforts of A. M. Spdng, of Spong's boathouse. who fought it with a wet sack. The cause of the blaze is unknown. Yesterday's second alarm came last night at 8:50, when residents at Lee and Turner Koad set fire to dry grass on a vacant tract nearby. Someone going past, not knowing that the fire was being watched, and had been carefully safeguarded, sent in an alarm. Those who set the fire declared that -they hadbeen given permis sion to burn the grass, although firemen pointed out that it is un lawful to burn grass at night. The need for an east side fire station was evident last night, be cause of the great distance the fire equipment had to travel to reach the scene of the blaze.
