Soderquist rushed up the stair- way and found the steps blazing with oil. A quart can of Kkerosene was blazing furiously near the top of the stairs, and, seizing this he rushed to the street.

An investi- gation showed that the flames haa started in the rear of the building and doing con- siderable damage. This seems to in- dicate that it may have been started in two places at the same time. That portion of the building to which the fire was confined is occupied by Miss L.
