The loss on the building is trifiing,

water, with which the back part of
the top floor was deluged, that did
the damage throughout the entire

have been averted had the stock been
covered with the oilcloths and tar
paulins of a salvage corps. Never has
the need of salvage corps been more
clearly demonstrated, and every one
who saw the result of the fire-the
destructive streams of water that
poured themselves through every

the costly goods-emphasized the ne
