Fire outbreaks and a wild night of blazes in city
A spate of fires Tuesday night and Wednesday morning strained the fire department. A warehouse fire at Som Yick and Co. on West Commerce and San Sabo streets caused heavy heat and damaged five hundred sacks of sugar plus beans and canned goods. A second blaze in the State Coal section of the Russell building basement triggered a gas explosion, with only slight damage after chemicals were used to seal the gas line. Fireman Y. F. Ronzater of Company No. 15 was injured when a fire truck crashed into a large hackberry tree at West Commerce and San Marcos streets while responding to the earlier flare up. The incident left Gonzales hospitalized with shoulder injuries. Captain J. Mr. Leal and Fireman D. E. Riley escaped unharmed. Additional small fires were reported, including a fire at the Grand Opera telegraph office area and a home blaze on St John Street, with no serious injuries or damage.
