a 110,000 fire which destroyed the sec
ond and third floors of the Iaji Jewelry
Company's establishment, 211 De Knlb
street, Norrlstewn, and threatened
ether bulldlnes.
All of Norrlstewn's flre-flehttnc
forces were cnlled out shortly after
4:30 e clock this morning. Firemen
battled for nn hour before subduing
the flamcH. They had te reach the rear
of the burning building through n nar
row alley.
Leuis Iteale. a member of the Norrls Nerrls Norrls
eown Fire Company, was playing a
stream through n window ns he steed
in the serai-darkness en a narrow shed
reef. lie missed his " footing nnd
dropped fifteen feet. He was token te
his home.
Crossed Wires Start Blaze
The fire started en the second fleer
of tne Knnz stricture, presumably from
creied wires en an electric dork In n
workroom. Tne glare, rellectcii in n
window, was seen by Patrolman Emll
Fernrri. who summoned engines. Later
a general alarm was sounded.
The Warner department store, front
Ine en Main street, extends In an L
shape en De Kalb street, nnd Is
separated from the three-story Jewelry
establishment by n narrow alley. The
Der Building, containing offices and
apartments, is en the ether aide of the
burned building.
Persons living en the upper floors of
the Dyer Building were aroused by the
clatter of Are apparatus. They pre
pared te leave with their valuables, but
the Hemes did net penetrate te their
building.
The rear of the Lanx structure is
hemmed in by ether buildlnss. Firemen
had te drag ladders and 'hee lines
through a narrow alley. The second
nnd third floors were stocked with
watches, clocks, bracelets and ether
.articles of jewelry. Many geld nnd
silver trinkets were melted by the in
tense beat.
Fleer Flooded
Streams of water were flooded into
the second nnd third fleer rears from
ladders and nearby buildings. The
water conked through te the first fleer,
damaging showcases and costly articles
en display.
Thcre was scarcely a ripple of air
se tnnt tne names am net leap out te
surrounding stores. Sparks rained en
two-story structures nearby and fire
nun doused the roeN as a precaution.
Itnlp Lane, owner of the jewelry
establishment, said the $10,000 less was
fully covered by insurance.

the concern as being the real head of
Tayler k Qe. and te have appropriated
tb money of clients te establish his
ewestleart in business. He has ap
apparently left the city. , , . ,
Bight persons hnve thus far been ar
rested n connection with the company's

them being the Rev. T Ashir Hpis, la-
mena Urumm-r hnv of the Civil War.
and' formerly secretory of the Pennsyl
vania Mstireaci x. m. v. a. mis con
nection with the case lies in having in in
trediifvd 11 Miteiimnn of the firm te an
aged coUple and tar have helped induce
tnem te piace tneir ine savings wiw
the brokers. They lest fpSOO. Mr.
Hess Is ill nt his peme. He collapsed
foltewlng his arrest.
Efferts te aln the dlschsrca of Mr.
Hess are expected te be made by many
pf the twenty or mere prosecutors when
preliminary hearings are given the pris
oners tomorrow. At the request of State
Representative Clinten Sewers, repre
senting several of the prosecutors, the
minister, who is seventy-three yenrs old
was released en his own recegnisance
for n further hearing by Magistrate
Ceward Saturday, while ether defend
ants were held in bail of from $1000
te seuuu eacn.
Although county detectives believe
they nipped the L.' B. Tayler Company
brokerage business while It was' still in
the bud, they have, nevertheless, started
an investigation in an effort te 'deter
mine just hew much this concern suc
ceeded in getting from Its alleged vic
tims. At the present time the customers of
the company who have complained te
the office of the District Attorney num
ber fewer than twenty, suffering a total
less of approximately $75,000.
Frem the accounts of the modus oper
andi of the company, as given by de
tectives who have worked en the case
and the lawyers who have been Inter
ested In the prosecution, the entire busi
ness of the concern was nothing mere
tnan a uciiocrate steal without any pre
tence nt doing legitimate business.
The only and most Important arrest
needed te cemnlete the case, as far as
tbe prisoners are concerned, is that 'of
Walter W.'Weed, treasurer of the com-
inny, wne is charged by tour 01 tne ox ex
ccrs under arrest with being the rent
head of the company and who is ssld
te have appropriated the money. Weed
wns sought all day yesterday, but 'all
efforts te find him were futile.
