The balance of $4,000 is placed in one OF the
companies in this city, but which one could
not be ascertained yesterday.
1T was at first thought that the adjoining
stores of Frederckson Il Harte and that Of
Philip Werlein had been extensively DAM
aged, but 1t has been ascertalned that the
damage was much less than anticipated. The
exact amount has not yet been learned
Col Power said that an investigation OF
the cause OF the fire would no doubt take
place ut once, but owing to the fact that the
largest amount of insurance is not placed in
board companies, he could not be very def
mite as to when it would take place. The in
vestigation will be u strict one, and the char
acter and position Of the fire, as discovered
when the salvage corps first entered the
building, will be closely looked into.
In connection with this fire, the chief engi-
neer OF the fire department., Thos O'Conn0r,
claims that had the building been provided
with wooden shutters, or in fact shutters of
any material that could be easily opened, he
could have controlled it much earlier, and
without SO much damage Owing to the
almost utter impossibility Of opening the
shutters, the fire gained great Roadway before
water could be brought IN contact with the
flames. There was every facility on the
grounds for the prompt distinguishing Of q
much larger fire-quantities of water and
men. Mr.. O'Connor says that the fire should
have been confined to the third story, and
would have been but for the length of time
required to open the blinds.

TIE GREATEST DUaR.nELL FEAT.

One OF the most marvellous feats Of
strength ever performed with dutab-
bells was yesterday executed in the
presence of several invited guests Of
Professor VIM, Miller, the celebrated
athelete, at his private gymnasium, No.
l3l West Baltimore street. Prof Mil.
Ter raised without jump or jerk a one
hundred and sixty pound dumb-bell at
straight arms length above his head
using his right hand only from the
shoulder, and while holding this ex-
tended, he pushed . sixty pound dumb
bell six times up and down with his
left hand. i. m IA, ,sa .lssa ...l,.. 80
The weights Of the bella were found
to be correct by placing them upon
scales in the presence Of tho spectators,
among whom was representative OF
the Neios, thus proving concluaively
that the bells were actually as heavy
as represented. The feat just dsscrib-
cd, as has been said, is remarkable
one, it never having been surmised by
modern atheletes and its successful per-
formance places Professor Miller at the
head Of heavy dumb-bell lifters of the
world. 1t is the result, as he states, Of
cultivated muscular skill, and eviden-
ces what power can be obtained by iu.
dicious training of the muscles. Balti,
