His cigar went out. He lighted a fresh one and flipped his match carelessly to the sidewalk. "See what you've done," exclaimed the woman with him, as she saw the lace on her dress burning. Together they smothered the flaming garment. As they walked to a nearby doorway so that the woman might arrange her apparel, smoke and flames began to curl through crevices in the iron door that gives entrance from the street to the basement of the store of Scrantom, Wetmore & Company. The fire under the street, and not the match had ruined the woman's skirt. When the doors were forced open by policemen the flames shot upward for yards and before the fire companies responded it looked as if the blaze had gained ground. A single stream however, extinguished the fire. Empty boxes were stored in the cellar. Little damage was done, the fire being confined to the front of the basement. Chief CREEGAN was unable to explain the fire. ** ROBBED OF ROLL OF $750 Mason Contractor Touched Soon After He Leaves Bank Emil KOHLER, a mason contractor living at No. 297 Orchard street, was robbed of $750 yesterday noon, probably in one of the elevators in the Wilder building.
