Harrison Swept by $125,000 Fire
Harrison, July 8— Battling
against terrific odds, the most
disastrous fire in the history of
Harrison, several firemen were
today prostrated by the heat,
and Alex Reed, a fireman, was
badly burned when a portion of
the business district was laid
waste by the flames. The loss is
estimated at $125,000, with in
surance about $50,000.
The fire originated in a row of
two-storv frame buildings on
West Stephenson avenue, within
one block of the public square.
These buildings were owned by
by Dr. M. A. Hathcock, L. H.
Schweitzer and C. D. Allison.
The fire was beyond control
before discovered and spread
rapidly. Within a few minutes
the flames jumped to the Pres
byterian church, on the south
west, and the stone and concrete
block on the opposite side, own
ed by George O’Neal and occu
pied by Ozark Wholesale Gro
cery Company, and the Harrison
Wholesale Flour and Feed Com
i pany both being destroyed.
None of the contents were saved
From here the fire threatened
business buidings on the west
| side of the treet, but bucket bri
gades of citizens and the firemen
prevented the flames from get
ting a start. One line of hose
was put out of commission when
it was found that the leg of a
chair had been lodged in the noz
zle, and the firemen were forced
to take the nozzle to a black-'
smith shop to have the chair 1
leg taken out.
George O'Neal, who owner* the
concrete block occupied by the
wholesale grocery company, also
lost many valuable records which
he says he cannot replace.
