thought that s., 900 will fully cover it. There
was no insurance on the coal. The board of
trade passed resolutions thanking the mem

manner in which they conducted themselves
and also thanking the different departments
from neighboring cities who responded to the
call for help. Five or six of the engines be-

fit for use, owing to their worn-ont condition.
