The loss by the burning of the Old Or
chard House is greater than was at first
supposed. Mr.. staples estimates his loss
at from S75 900 to $4,000. The total losses
aggregate about 100000. The heaviest
private loss is that of Paul Brooks and
family OF New York, who lose several
thousand dollars worth of clothing and
jewelry. The occupants of the lower sto-
ries saved most all their effects. The
Ocean House and other houses are all well
sprinkled with the sufferers, though many
left Tor their homes on Thursdays trains.
Mr.. Staples is somewhat discouraged by
his heavy loss, and has formed no definite
plan as yet for rebuilding, but he will un
doubleday do so. as great pressure will be
made 10 this end Oh the part of the many
patrons. who have already drawn up pa
per,pledsing him their support and patron
