An Early Morning Fire Consumes Several
Grocery Stores.

fHfbtelN Nlbif~-
DANVILLE. VA. April l9-Special.-
At o'clock yesterday morning fire
broke out in the wholesale grocery store
OF z. /. Grasty, in the heart Of one Of the
large business blocks OF Main street The
fire was a vigorous and vicious blaze.
and threatened 10 make an exceedingly
disastrous confagration.
BY the heroic efforts Of the Fire De-
partment the flames were confined %
three stores. The grocery stores Of p L.
Grasty. and Overbey q Swanson Bros.
and the small clothing store OF Abram
Levine. These were totally destroyed
with their stocks. Adjoining buildings
with stocks were more or less damaged.
The total losses were $4,000, and the
insurance is $1,000. The losses of the
grocerymen were comparatively small.
because Of the fact that they carry the
bulk of their heavy stocks, such as meats.
flour, fertilizers. hay, &c. in warehouses
near the railway depots This is especial
~ true OF Messrs. Overbey & Swanson
Bros. who rented another office this
morning. and continued business as
though nothing had occurred. The build
ings destroyed were owned by Dr. J. G.
Anderson and Mrs. r.. Summerfield. and
were valued at 5000 each. The insur-
ance on the Anderson store was $1,000.
and on that Of Mrs. Summerfield $500.
