The third and last fire, short ly after one o'clock was the worst of the three. The losses will aggregate $400 or $500. A few minutes passed the hour nam ed neighbors saw the barn in the rear of the property occupied by Leon Koester at No. 121 Chestnut street in flames. The entire structure was burning and the flames were being fanned by the strong wind that was blowing.

An alarm was sent in and both the departments responded the big Cron steamer. Both the day and the location were very bad. On all sides were frame structures, barns, sheds and other outbuildings while on the east was' the big plant of the Piqua Malt Com pany. The wind was blowing strong ly from the southwest. The barn in which the fire originat ed and that in the rear of the proper ty occupied by Wesley Lindsay at No.

409 Sycamore Street were both beyond saving when the department arrived The long period of dry weather had made both buildings as dry as tinder. The Lindsay barn being immediafely across the alley from the first mention ed barn' the wind carried the 'flames right to it. From the two burning boms the flames spread to a small barn and shed adjoining on the east and owned Mrs. Anna Henn, who lives at 328 Wood Street in the rear of which they are. The fences along the alley were more or less burned.

The barn in which the fire appeared to have originated was rented by James Miirphyj' a market man! He1 had a room fixfed up in which fcelived in addition to using' it as a place for L. R. Osborn to Dayton this the storage of bis bay, horse, wagon, etc. The barn' was 'the prop ty.of Shade. Mr: had put his horse and wagon in the barn" but a short time before.

He tells of baving seen a grass and brush fire in the rear 6E the property occupied Mrs. Lena Saager, adjoining the Lindsay proper ty on east! In this however, he clearly mistaken as no evidence of a. fire' of that description could be found although a careful investigation was made. Mrs.

Saager's daughter denied there had been a fire nough to cause the fire. Earlier in the morning some grass had been burned by them. but the remainshad been carefully wetted some hours be fore. Furthermore it would have been practically impossible for sparks to have carried across the alley to the Shade barn in view of the prevailing direction of the wind. There is ho reflection on the people whose proper ty was destroyed.

Otto Armstrong early saw the fire, and attempted to enter the barn to get out the horse of Mr. Murphy, this he failed for the heat was so tense that he could not get near the building The animal made frantic by its burns had freed itselE and kicked the door open only to fall when half way out. In addition to his horse and wagon Mr. Murphy lost a new suit of clothes, a peanut roaster, some stock, and (87 in cash. He has nothing left but the clothing which he wears.
