Description of Fire
Which Destroyed Hall
In Anchorage Friday
The following account of the de
strution of Robart’s Hall at Anchor
age, Friday night, was given by Hen
ry Slov, captain of Company 1 of the
Anchorage fire department.
A boxing contest had been held in
the hall upstairs that evening, which
was attended by a large crowd. After
checking up ahd closing the place for
the night, Mr. Robarts retired to be !
awakened about 2:30 by the smell of
smoke. He looked after the stoves
and then opened up the door that
leads down into the main hall. A vol
ume of dense smoke and flames
drove him back into his room. Grab
bing up one of his grandchildren, age
two, he awoke Mrs. Robarts and his
daughter, Mrs. Mona Glaze, and her j
baby, and all fled down the stairs, i
The fire had been discovered in the
meantime by Carl Lottsfeldt, who
turned in the alarm, but by this time
the structure was a mass of flames,
and! the streams of water were turned
on adjoining buildings to save them.
The old Elks home on the left, and
Wandling’s fur store on the right were
saved by strenous effort on the part
of the firemen, nine large streams of
water being played on the flames by
the new La France fire truck, and
but small damage was done. The walls
of Robarts’ Hall are standing but the
building is completely gutted. The
fire siren was found to be frozen and
many residents knew nothing of the
fire until next day.
Mr. Stoy said that hereafter the si
ren would be tested each day during
the winter months.
Mr. Stoy, who has been engaged in
business recently sold his interests
in Anchorage and was an outgoing
passenger on the steamship North
western and will visit, his old home
in Spokane before locating in busi
ness again.
E. A. Rasmusen, head of the Alaska
banking syndicate, was an outgoing
passenger on the Northwestern. He
said business was good considering
all things in general, and was highly
pleased over the merger of the Bank
in Anchorage. Reaffirming the state
ment made in the Gateway a few days
ago, he said that two banks were
all that were necessary in the town
of Anchorage. Mrs. Rasmusen and
children are in Seattle and spend two
out of the twelve months of each year
in Alaska.
