Some of the stuff was badly burned, some burning and all smoking with sicken: ing, offensive odor. In Gabel's tailor shop the damage bevond that by smoke will not_amount to anything. Just before the alarm was turned in John Dubi, oneof the tailors at worlk in the rear of the store saw smoke coming up through cracks near the window, He filled a can with water and poured 1t dowu the aperture.
