Cat Caught in Motor and Fire Starts Clad only in night attire N. Barrette and his wife and family were driven out of their home on Saturday mornâ€" ing by fire which started in the baseâ€" ment of the building they occupied. The blaze, which did damage which will amount to several hundreds of dolâ€" lars began when a cat got caught in an electric motor. Family Driven from Home A passerâ€"y saw clouds of smoke bilâ€" lowing out of the basement window ‘beâ€" low the store, at 120 Mountjoy street, which Barrette owns, and turned in an alarm. Before the fire truck got to the scene of the fire Barrette and his family were forced to vacate the third floor of the building where they were sleeping. The fire started at about fiveâ€"thirty o‘clock. Apparently the cat, weii known feline curiosity, was closely inspecting the electric motor which operates in connection with the store‘s refrigerating plant. It got â€"caught in the fly wheel and the friction which resulted caused fire which caught some cases of stock piled nearby. Before long other cases of stock took fire and the cellar was in fiames. The animal was dead when firemen extricated it from the motor. The smoke which rolled up through the store above and seeped into the third storey, where Barrette lives, forced the family out of the house. Damage was mainly confined to the basement and the stock which was burned and damaged by the flames. Some damage was caused in the store above by smoke. On Friday a call was received from 38 Fifth avenue, where a chimney fire was quickiy brought under control. A new element in an electric range was the cause of a small fire at 49 Toke street on Saturday but no damage was done. Don Clothes.
