The Spectator estimates that the insurance
loss by the fire will amount to about $780,
100000. The district burned Is much smaller
than that destroyed at Chicago, but the con-
tents are of greater value per block. The
loss will fill heaviest on Boston companies,
the greater number of which coniue their
business entirely to that section. Tue lead.
ing companies may be expected to stand,
with few if any exceptions. -.
The Spectator gives tho following list of
insurance losses: Firelneu's Fund Company,
OF San Francisco. $4,000; Alps, OF New
