Damaged Tea for Fuel.
From the chfcaao Tribune.

There is but one house in the city, or, in
fact, in the country, that makes business
of rehabilitating the salvage of great fires,
and as that house takes care of the salvage
of any and all kinds from fourteen differ
emit states, something of the scale upon
which it is conducted can be imagined. As,
of course, all the goods saved from the
flames are badly injured by water. they
must all be subjected to drying process.
Flour is very little injured by water, as a
paste forms upon the outer surface which
preserves the -four within from damage
therefore it is simply necessary to remove
the slaves of the barrel, scrape of the outer
paste from the flour and place it in large
bin, from which it is sfted through an i'm
mense sieve and reweighed and barreled.
Tea preserves itself in some what the same
way. In reference to a quantity of tea
saved from the burning of tea warehouse
some months ago, was told that after the
salvage, which aggregated ], 200. 900 pounds,
had been dried and was ready for reboxipg,
it was found by chemical analysis TO be
unfit for food on account of the river water
with which it had been saturated. Although
to all appearances 1t was as good tea as one
ordinarily buys, and there was nothing
unusual in its taste, being unfit for food II
could neither be sold nor given away. What
was to be donea As a last resort it was
decided to feed the furnace with it, and
since the second week in September the
entire building five stories) has been heated
with tea for fuel
