Gottstein, on Second tv. at 6 p. m Monday, for the third time within stx months, Damage is estimated this time at between $7,000 and $10,000. The loss tn the first fire, May 12, was $100,000; In the second fire, ae been repaired, June 24, the damage was Monday night's fire ortginated from a cause unknown, on the fourth floor, in a stock of new furniture. It was discovered econ after closing time. Prompt response by the downtown fire companies and a sparing of water resulted in small damage to the floors below, though the stock was damaged to some extent, and the Helen Igoe Shop for Women and the Keating Millinery Co, suffered losses, as usual. Dam- age to these two stores, however, was small, in comparison to the fire in May. The theory that somebody threw a half-burned cigarette on the floor is discounted by Gottsetin, who has warned his employes to be un- usually careful. L. A.
