FIRE IN BROADWAY.
EARLY MORNING CALL. CONFECTIONER'S SHOP DAMAGED. Within len minutes of a policeman passing along his beat and noticing nothing untoward, an outbreak of fire was discovered in a small fruit and Bannister, in Broadway, Newmarket, at Bannister, in Broadway, Newmaret, at 1.30 o'clock this morning. The alarm was raised by a taxi-driver, who noticed an ominous glare in the shop. The Newmarket Fire Brigade made a smart turn out, and effected an excellent save, the damage being confined to the counter and fittings. The stock, which suffered through smoke and water, was not covered by nn insurance policy. No one was living on the premises. The cause of the conflagration is a mystery.
