At The Height Of The Blaze: Its awning name-lettering almost obscured by the smoke-clouds rolling from its blown-out windows, the Capitol Market at 123 E. Washington St. suffered a $30,000 fire shortly before 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon. Although the cause of the blaze is undetermined, James B. Thompson, proprietor, who discovered the fire, said it apparently started near a basement ice machine. Fed by escaping fuel gas, the flames raced up through the flooring into the street-level vegetable department and destroyed food stocks across the ground floor. Yesterday's was Ann Arbor's most major fire since the Wild & Co. blaze last December. (Story on page 13 and pictures on pages 13 and 22).
