An- drews at 112-118 Summit street was gut- ted by fire about 5 o'clock Thursday afternoon and the garage adjoiding the bakery was totally destroyed causing 3 loss that was estimated by Mr. Andrews on Thursday evening at over $22,500. The fire started in the garage when the automobile delivery truck backfired as John Ludwig was starting the motor. The machine burst into flames which quickly set fire to the garage and in a short time this was a mass of flames, Mr. Ludwig., when he saw that the ma- chine was afire, threw a bag over his head and pushed the machine from the burning building but in S0 doing was se- verely burned about the face and hands. The fire in the machine was put out aft- er it had been backed out of the ga- rage. Mr. Ludwig then netified the fire de- partment which made a quick response, the Central sfation and the West Side answering the call. When the department arrived the garage was bevond saving and attention was devoted to saving the bakery. Two hydrants were open- ed but the pressure was so low that the streams were ineffective until the pump- er had been hooked up.

Damage to the ovens will amount to $1,500.

URGES HOUSEWIVES T0 CURTAIL SUGAR CONSUMPTION Although commereial canners and fruit preservers have been provided with suf- ficient sugar by the action of the federal government, which has brought the Ar- gentine crop to their relief, housewives are urged to curtail their corsumption of sugar by one-half, Mrs. James J Grace, state chairman of the woman's campaign in bringing down the high cost of living, said Thursday. About two weeks ago the commercial can- ners and preservers of jams and jellies decided to boycott the sugar market, saying they would not buy sugar at present prices. To avoid a complete lack of these com- modities next winter the department of Justice intervened and arranged to have the Argentine sugar crop go to the com- mercial canners and preservers and their sugar problem is solved, M. Blakemore, president of the National Preserves and Fruit Products association, declared Wed- nesday. Mrs. Grace says the housewives will net be able to buy suzar cheaper either now or later *unless the consumption is curtailed by one-half for Some time. She has sent out circulars to the various town chairmen urging that canning be done without sugar and that the susar be aflded when the fruit is used. With the commiercial canners provided for, a sup- ply of sugar will be gradually accumu- lated if housewives throughout the coun- try will curtail their use of sugar by one-half, and that will mean cheaper su- gar, Mrs. Grace pointed out. “France and England are taking up the sugar problem in this same way—less consumption until supplies increase, and then prices will come down. It is perfect- ly plain that there is no other effective way of bringing down the price of sugar.” CLATMS > OBTAINED MONEY BY FALSE PRETENSE On the charge that he had obtained money by false pretenses, a warrant has been issued here for A. G. Sanford of New York. It is charged that he repre- sented himself as an agent of the Stan- dard Motor Truck Co, and that he estab- lished an agency at a Taftville garage with 2 man named Gaudreau who gave him a check for $228 which has been cashed. It was given on June 7 and was made payable to bearer, Mr. Sanford was here again Wednesday at the Taftville garage, but went away in the afternoon. Later in the day an- other man who said he was an agent for the concern appeared and claimed that Sanford was not in the employ of the company. MBS.
