The fire early yesterday mornlne- de. stroyed the Acme meat market and dwelling apartments of S. E. Akerly and Charles Thomas, on North Main avenue. Providence. The buildings were next to the Ready Pay store oppo site the square. The fire was discov ered about 2.45 a. m., and the Liberty and Niagara Hose companies promptly responded, followed In a short time by the Excelsior and Cumberland Hnsn companies. The building, a frame one, was in names when the firemen arrived. and Mr. Akerly and family experienced mucn tumcuity in making their escape. Clark Conrad, who was sleeping In the front bedroom, owes his escane from death to the brave conduct of Officer Palmer, who rushed Into the burning building, found Conrad and succeeded In getting him out of danirer. All the household sroods and clothing were destroyed. The fire spread so rapidly that a second alarm was sounded, which brought the General Phlnney company from Green Ridge to the assistance of the other companies. In the rear of Mr. Akerlv's tiremlaeu was a two-story dwelling occupied by Charles Thomas and his famllv. This was speedily caught by -the flames and no tim was given for the family to save any of the household effects. M. E. Church Damaged. Although the Methodist Episcopal church Is twenty-flve feet from the scene of conflagration the stalned-glnss wlndowB were broken, and other damage was done to the amount of $500. Thanks to the efforts of the fire men the edifice was saved from destruc tion. The loss to Mr. Akerly on his store fixtures, stock and household goods will exceed $2,000, on which he has Insurance of $1,200. Two hundred dollars In bills and some cash In the register were also, lost, some of the cash being found In the ruins yesterday morning. The firemen discovered two ladles', gold watches and a sum of $3C and Important papers In Mr. Conrad's vest in the room which he had occupied. Mr. Thomas, who occupied the rear building, sustains a heavy loss and has no Insurance whatever. Dr. Henry Roberts, of Towanda, Is the owner of the building, and his loss Is estimated at about $4,000, which la. partly covered by insurance. No satisfactory reason can be given for the cause of the fire. A fire was left In the office st6ve when the store was closed, but the usual pre cautions were taken to ensure the J safety of the place. ' ruthless reductions necessary 3, 1895.
