Yesterday afternoon Supt, Gay had three or four strips of scantling pre- pared, with long w is fixed tn them, with their busine: upward. He fastened his “tramp teas- ers’ inside the window ledge, thereby making a most uncomfortable berth for any one inclined to “turn in." At 1,10 o'clock this morning the watch- man found that the place was on fire, The flames were discovered in a small storeroom in the front of the cellar filled with odds and ends. A half-barrell of turpentine was there also and a barrel of disinfecting fluid, The storeroom could be reached from &® basement window underneath the re- ceiving platform on the Thirty-fourth ends pointing j street side of the building. The flames had not had sufficient time to gain any great headway before the firemen appeared.
