    ROCHESTER HISTORY Edited by Joseph W. Barnes, City Historian Vol. XXXVIII AprilandJuly, 1976 Nos. 2 and 3 The Arson Years Fire Protection, Fire lnsuhnce, and Fire Politics 1908-1910 By Joseph W. Barnes The human fascination with fires and fire-fighting endures through the years. If tragic losses of life and property are still a serious concern, despite modern building codes and fire­ fighting methods, only a small leap of imagination is needed to appreciate how frightening fire could be in the years when even the downtown sections of cities were largely wooden; when spark-generating coal was the major fuel for all purposes; and when hundreds of hay-filled barns were tucked behind houses and commercial establishments. As in other American cities, these conditions prevailed in turn-of-the­ century Rochester. A legendary kerosene lamp started the fire which leveled Chicago in 1871. Thirty or forty years later such lamps were still common in barns, and gas lights could still be found in homes. The incandesccn t lamp was replacing gas, but the rapid introduction of electricity created another hazard until principles of safe wiring were learned.
