from the Buffalo Express Nov 81
destructive fire occurred last night between the hours
OF ten and twelve O'Clock which consumed the large grain
elevator and warehouse adjoining the New York Central
Railroad freight depot, on Ohio street, together with
immense quantity Of grain, and some other property
slowed within The building buildings belonged the
Central Railroad Company and valued at $500 OO0
upon which we understand there was no insurance
Something over 200 600 bushels Of gran mostly wheat
were stored in the elevator the value or which cannot
vary much from 5000 0o0 AS nearly as we could learn
this all insured su.h probably the case for wheat
Is seldom stored without insurance.
About the quantity and value OF other produce and
freight In the warehouse we could ascertain nothing def
mite, but nconsiderabe compared with the re main
der Of the loss We set Town the total destruction of pro-
perty at about $500 000-rather than under that
amount, probably.
The freight depot of the Central Railroad IL built M 70
and against the elevator destroyed and the contiguous
end was in imminent danger from the fire. but though
the roof was burned somewhat the remen that
building. on the elevator and Warehouse nothing re-.
mains but the walls, which of brick, built very Solid
ly, and which, Notwithstanding the immense pressure
upon them from the grain In store, stood firmly.
OF the origin Of the fire nothing could be learned last
night II became apparent about ten O'Clock, and was
under considerable Roadway before the alarm was given
Before the remen could reach the spot it was beyond
control The steam fire engine did not make its appear
apce Oh the ground at all We would ask whether has
