DESTRUCTIVE FIRE AT LUDLOw.-The
village of Ludlow was visited yesterday
by serious conf1agration which resulted
in the total destruction of Hammond's
block and some adjoining buildings. The
fire broke out about twelve o'clock, and in
spite of all efforts to stay the progress OF
the f4mea, Hammond's Block was soon
enveloped and completely at the mercy of
the devouring element From this the
fire communicated to Sheriff Stimsons
dwelling house and the brick school house,
both of which were totally destroyed.
Hammond's Block was occupied by L.
G. Hammond, dry goods dealer Messrs.
Gates, jewellers; A. A. Baldwin, photo
grapher, and by the post Office. Ham
monds Hall, the largest public hall of the
village, was also located in this building.
Most of the contents of the building were
saved, though in a somewhat damaged
condition The total loss is estimated at
about $4,000, which is partially covered
by insurance. This loss will be severely
felt by the town of Ludlow, as the block
destroyed was prominent one, and was
occupied by leading business men. We
are not advised as to the cause of the fire
