DAMAGE TO THE SEVENTH REGIMENT
ARMORY,

II will be recollected that short time since the
Tompkins Market building was severely injured
BY fire, which ruined the roof over the Seventh
regiment armory rooms. temporary roof of
boards had been constructed TO shelter the prem.
ises till proper one could be built. This, tt was
estimated, would cost $4,000, and the Board OF
Estimate and Apportonment had been requested
TO make the requisite appropriation therefor.
Meantime the Tenth company had taken
the precauton to have a coating OF
waterproof paper placed upon the board
TOoi over their room. On Thursday
night the heavy rainfall penetrated the tenn
porarv roofing and the water about midnight be-
gan to drip through the ceilings into the company
and smaller drlllrooms. This dripping soon
swelled to rushing streams. which drenched the
valuable property stored In the rooms ana ruined
expensive and artistic Irescoes and pictures. In
spite OF the exerlons OF the armorer, many OF the
uniforms were spoiled by wettng. II Is estimated
tnat the damage already reaches $4,000. An
