The | bulldings occupied by Roth, Blum & Co. were in danger, but the department saved them. Assistant Chief Hernandez had much difficulty in fighting the fire. He had plenty of men and apparatus to aid him, but it was difficult to secure water. It had to be puarped some distance and the hose burst frequently on account of the tremendous pressure needed to throw heavy streams. It was impossible to save the tannery, although the firemen made every effort to do so. The wind*swept the flames onward and only a corrugated fron building prevented them from wiping out other structures. Within five minutes after the first build- Ing caught fire the other structures were ablaze and burning fiercely. The raged for more than three hours and all that remains of the splendid plant is the charred embers. Two hundred men will be thrown out of employment by the conflagration. The tannery has been in existence for the last twenty vears, and this was the first fire experienced by the firm. Mr. Legal- let could hardly restrain his tears when he saw his splendid business destroyed. He seemed to regret the fact that his men would be minus employment. He | stated that the firm was partly insured, but would not say whether it would re- build. The tannery occupied two square bloc] It had nine or ten buildings, two | of which were five stories high. Some of the buildings were 200 feet wide. These were situated on a marshy peninsula. The firm had built its own road and had put in a number of hydrants for its own bro- on. - Unfortunately the fire in the yards and, owlng to the fierceness of the blaze, the firemen could not utilize the hydrants, alarms e turned 534 and engines 11, 3 | and trucks s and 9 re | zen turned in an alarm from box 532 and "morr‘ aprsratus we to the scene, but could do nothing to save the plant. Mr. Legallet said the firm had many orders on hand jfor warious concerns in the United Staths and that the stock stored in the vatfous buildings was heavy. | A large oil tank escaped the fire by reason of the fdet that it had been buried in the marsh under the direction of Fire Marshal Towe. Had it exploded, lives might have been lost, as there were hun- dreds of people in the vicinity during the | progress of the fire.

TACOMA, May 16.—Edwin R. Place will fight to retain the custody of his 6-year- old daughter, whose possession is sought by his former wife, now Mrs. Anna L. Folger of Stockton, Cal. Place declares that Mrs. Folger's allegations that she has been unable to find the little girl dur- ing the last three vears are untrue. vs Mrs. Folger knew that the child was being boarded at Puyallup and vis- ited her on three different occasions. He claims that each time she endeavored.to get possession of the child. Place claims that in 1898 a divorce was given to him and not to Mrs. Place, the court awarding him the custody of the child. The second divorce last year was was in from b , 25, 13 and 35 Some citi- 1 the scene horses. He | agreement was made whereby he was to keep the child.
