THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN.
MONDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1»j6.
W. & A. ROUNDHOUSE
DESTROYED BY FIRE;
CONFERENCE CALLED
Total Damage Is
Placed Near $200,-
000.
STATE must say
WHAT WILL BE DONE
Lease by N. C. & St. L. Road
Has But Short Time
To Run.
juat what th« Weitarn and Atlantic
tvi;! do for shop* and round house fa
cilities after the disastrous fire
Monday evening will be a matter of
conjecture until after a conference of
president Thomas,' who arrives Tues
day afternoon from Nashville, and oth
er ’official* of the road with the state
authorities.
The fact that the Western and At
lantic Is owned by the state, and that
the lease of the Nashville, Chattanooga
and St. Louis on It has but a com
p.iratlvely short time to run, compli
cates matters, and will be a big fac
t„r In determining whether the shops
and things will be built with any Idea
of permanence.
Meanwhile, the officials on ttye
ground estimate the losses at varying
figures. J. L. McCollum, superintend-
int of the Western and Atlantic divls-
l„n, thinks that the damage did not
amount to over $100,000. Masfer Me
chanic Lamar Collier, on the other
hand, thinks that less than $200,000
will not cover the loss wrought by the
flames, others make their estimates
at various points between these two.
Major McCollum said Tuesday
morning that the average damage to
the engines would not exceed $2,000.
“Thev look mighty bad,'* he said, “but
y,,u can’t Judge a scorched engine by
the outside appearance. There's a
coat of asbestos under the thin sheet-
iron exterior. Even those engines
which had no water In them and which
look like they are damaged entirely
bevond repair can be overhauled and
twain put into commission.
Now, as to what we are going to
do for a round house until we can get
in shape to handle our work here
again that will be a matter for Pres
ident Thomas to decide.”
Mr. Collier’s estimate Includes some
of the Incidental expenses brought
about by the fire. In addition to the
actual loss of property.
Over 250 Out of Their Regular Work.
The tire which did-the damage threw
hot ween 250 and 300 men out of their
regular employment, but the major
portion of them are still given work
clearing away the debris and getting
th< damaged engines In shape to be
taken wherever It Is decided to repair
them—to the Chattanooga and Nash
ville shops, or to the shops of friendly
roads In Atlanta. Hardly 100 men are
thrown out of employment and they
will not be out long; In fact, most of
them will he placed on a night shift, It
Ik thought.
The fire which did all this damage
wn«* discovered about 9 o’clock Mon
day evening by Machinist Allen Har-
rr ve In the wood shop under an arc
LgV.t. An unwary bug attracted by the
brilliant spark between the carbons
tuny have made this his dying deed.
Pretty certain It I* that the spark
•• hleh fell into some refuse came from
thN lamp.
Mr. Ibtrgmve notified the other men
ct work In the shop and In the round
I "is.-, but before they could make any
fight on the tire It bad grown to such
proportions that they had to get out.
They used a stream from a small hose
f"i I time, but ns one of the men said,
I could hardly hear It slxzle as It
";i turned Into steam before it got to
*h»‘ business part of the blaze.”
Lightning Quick Fire.
I A. Everett, traveling engineer of
the N, c. & St. b„ was one of the first
fi -m outsdle of the shop to arrive, and
"h«n he got there, he said, the whole
"no,] *hop was one big blase and the
t t- was getting In Its work on the
r ind house roof. He and others said It
was the quickest fire they ever saw, In-
' Ivlng the whole establishment as It
did inside of five minutes after it w’as
first discovered.
Sixteen engines were In the round
b'"ise. an unusually large number, as
It happened. The damage to these

There is hardly a ejear track in the
Western and Atlantic yards.
The mechanics and laborers around
the devastated shops Tuesday morn
ing are all bedecked in new, clean
working togs and are handling bright
new hammers. That’s where they suf
fered. Nearly every man at the shops
lost from $10 to $25 worth of tools be
sides his overalls.
Next to the round house, where the
ruined engines are, the ruins of the
machine shop present the most deso
late apparance. The expensive drills,
lathes and machinery peculiar to the
railroad repair shop Is now a lot of
Junk—for the mechanics do not think
that any of thin can be repaired, so
that It will give satisfactory service.
One of the biggest lathes hod just beei^
Installed and had not yet been used.
The ruined blacksmith shop and
room where the mechanics kept their
tools add their part to the general ef
fect and to the loss, but the damage In
them Is not so great as In the machine
shop and engine house. The turntable
In the center of the round house,
though badly charred, Is being used
with safety Tuesday.
Thousands Saw Fire.
There Is no telling how many* people
saw the blase Monday evening. The
fire burned fiercely for more than nn
hour, and during that time lit all parts
of the city with a weird glow. The
low-hanging clouds gave the Impres
sion that the fire was even more exten
sive than It was In reality, and thou
sands of people flocked to the center
of the city to see what was the matter.
The Forsyth street viaduct was crowd
ed to the limit and dozens of men and
boys climbed to points of vantage in
the Ironwork overhead.
But down in the yards people with
the Inborn desire to get closer to the
thing making the excitement were the
ones getting the full benefit. In most
parts of the yards the mud was deep
enough to flow Into the tops of decol-
lette shoes, and the cold, drizzling rain
which was falling was Just enough to
be the most disagreeable. But these
drawbacks did not keep folks from do
Ing their bets to get to the place
w'here the police would let them go no
further ancf the top of every car in the
vicinity of the fire had Its quota of
spectators.
Gas Tank Threatened.
At times it looked as If the big gas
tank about 50 yards from the fiercest
part of the fire was In danger, but
fears on this score were soon allayed.
When the fire engines arrived sev
eral of them had a lot of trouble get
ting their hose lines to the fire on ac
count of the tracks all being choked
with freight cars, and by the time
they could get their streams to playing
all that was left for them to do was to
cool things down as soon ns possible,
for the conflagration had reached such
a stage that the damage It did could
not be averted.
It Is stated that by reason of the
good work of the switching -crews In
getting equipment out of danger but
few freight or passenger^ cars were
seriously damaged.

New York. Oct. 2.—J. C. Baker, head

home, No. 410 Central Park Weit. Mr.
Baker was 18 yeara old, happily mar
ried and the father of a child, to whom
he waa devoted. No cause can be as

Mr. Baker went home In a rather
nervous and fretful mood. Painter*
and decorators were at work. He com
plained of the disorder and said he
could not hear the odor of turpentine.
He u'nlked Into nnnther room and
his wife heard the report of a
volver. She rushed Into the room nnd
found her husband on the floor with a
bullet wound In his head. He was un
conscious and died In n few minutes.
Mr. Baker was a native of Atlanta
and an artlft of ability and originality.

The Barnum A Bailey circus will
exhibit here Friday and Saturday, Oc
tober 19*20. Especial Interest
taches to the Barnum A Bailey show-
day this year, not only because of the
popular belief thnt It Is the largest
combined circus, menagerie and hip
podrome In the world, but also because
the management announces a number
of features of such an extraordinary
character as to discount anything hith
erto known in the line of arenlc sen
satlonallam.
Probably the most remarkable of the
new acts, and the one that has created
the greatest comment nnd wonder, Is
known ns the “Dip of Death.” In this
startling act a heavy road car fllea 40
feet through apace, with machine and
driver actually upalde down. Then, na
though thla thriller was not sufficient
tu satisfy the public demand for sen
sationalism, two daring bicyclists tempt
injury nnd possible death by turning
somersaults In inld-nlr on their wheels.
This sensational %ct Is descriptively
entitled the “Two Twirls of Terror,”
and Is said to create a furore wherever
It Is seen.
Apart from Its sensational features,
the Barnum A Bailey program seems
to have a sufficient variety of genuine
old-fashioned circus acts to satisfy
the most exciting lover of real arenlc
entertainment. Interspersed with these,
i it Is announced, are a number of acts
nhat, while not especially sensational,
are especially Inte estlng nnd attractive
by reason of thelt originality and nov
elty. The foreign agents of the Bar
num A Bailey Show were. It Is said,
notably successful last winter In *«-
curing unconventional and skillful acta
for the current season.
DRUNKS PILE INTO STATION
WHEN SALOONS OPEN UP;
CONDITIONS NORMAL NOW
From Saturday aftarnoon until Mon
day morning* with all aaloona in tha
oity closed, a total of 55 easts were
docketed at tha police station* two of
theaa for drunkenness.
From Monday aftarnoon until Tuea
day morning, with only 14 saloons’ opsn
from 5 until 10 o'olock Monday night,
a total of 46 cassa wsra dockatsd, 20
of the number being fpr drunkenness.
Tha majority of tha drunkenness also
repressntsd disorder.
After a week of remarkable quietude
and sobriety In the city of Atlanta, nnd
rest for the hard worked police, the
police business Is now beginning to
rapidly Increase with the opening of
the saloons.
The above comparison of figures
demonstrates the ratio at which the
police business Is gaining.
With a few saloons In the center of
the city open from 6 o’clock Monday
afternoon until 10 o’clock at night, 20
men, both white and black, were ar
rested for drunkenness, while on Mon
day, out of a total of 65 cases, only
two men answered to the charge of
being drunk. The police officials say
that the police station and police c<
will now rapidly assume their nor
apjtearance after the week of enforced
prohibition nnd peacefulness.
None of the saloons of Decatur and
Peters streets was open Monday
night and this fact accounts for the
drunkenness being no greater than It
was. The police believe that had the
saloons In these two thoroughfares
been open, they would have had their
hands full until late In the night han
dling the drunks, and that the disor
der would have been much greater.
The saloons had been opera only an
hour or two until the drunks began to
roll Into the police station.
