The annual catalogue Of the state
University, just issued, gives little evil
dence hat the institution has been
embarrassed by a disastrous fire, beyond
the promise that the reconstruction of
the main building will be completed for
the ensuing fall, superior to the original
building and fitted with new apparatus,
specimens. etc., obtained by Worlds
Fair purchases and donations and by
direct importations. An epitome of the
university's history and Of the laws per-
tanning to it emphasizes its state char

for admitting pupils from both city and

which was partially destroyed by FIRE
yesterday morning. A delegation of in
surance men Interested in the loss. appear
ed before the council and fought against
the condemnation on the ground that the
building might have been a tit subject for
condemnation before the fire occurred and
therefore II would be unjust to the insur-

total loss by reason of the fire
Hon. W II Venable, one OF the owners
of the property. urged the council to sus-
tain the report of the inspectors. He said
he was willing to stand the litigation
with the insurance companies to adjust
the loss, but declared that he nor any
body else would stay in the building after
the discoveries of the inspectors.
In Difference to the protest of the insur-
ance men, the council ordered the inspec-
tors to make a second examination this
afternoon, and tomorrow they will again
report in favor of the condemnation of the
building in even stronger terms than in
the first report. The building will there
fore have to come down to be replaced by
a new one out and out. There is sure to
