THE GREAT BULK
Of Losses in the London Fire VIII Fall
on the American Companies.
only Two Firemen Were Slightly Hurt
During the Work of Distinguishing the
FIames-Au Historical Treasures of
Cripple Gate Church Were Saved.

LONDON, Nov. GA number of fire
engines are still playing upon the
smoldering ruins which mark the scene
of the great conf1agration near the
general post office Friday. Walls are
falling every now and then.
1t is impossible to accurately esti-
mate the damage done, but the direct
loss will probably be below $4,000, 900.
Consols nd India three-per-cents
have fallen heavily on the belief that
the losses viii necessitate heavy sales
bv insurance companies and most of
the insurance companies shares have
dropped 10 to 80 Shiflings.
The Evening Standard, in its inan-
cial article, Saturday afternoon says it
is believed that the bulk of the fire
losses will fall upon American insur-
ance companies.
The last flames disappeared by II
o'clock Saturday morning, but as this
message is forwarded water is still be-
ing poured upon the red-hot masses of
ruins. The burned district is sur
rounded by enormous crowds of PED
pie and the railroads are running
excursions from the country.
In spite of the magnitude of the dis
aster, only two firemen were slightly
injured during, the work of e&tinguish-
ing the flames
About three hundred firms are seek
ing for new offices. The estimates of
the amount of damage done range
from $40, 0OO 900 to 100000 900, but ac-
cording to the best opinion the loss is
about 80, 100000.
The official report says the cause of
the fire is unknown.
A large number of warehouses from
five to six stories high have been
burned and have partly fallen, the
whole covering an area of 200 by $50
yards, bounded by Nlcholl square, Ed
munds place, Jewin crescent, Aus
tralian avenue, Paul's alley and Red
Cross street.
The insurance agents take an OPP
timistic view of the'losses, their esti-
mates ranging from $500, 900 to $4,000
600. 1t is fact that dozens of burned
out firms were not insured, in some
cases because they were considered to
be undesirable customers and in 9TH
ers because the locality has long been
considered dangerous by the insurance
companies. The latter assert that the
sensational reports regarding the
losses have been promoted on the stock
exchange in order to influence stocks

For Cuba is Approved by President AIcKin-
Iey-He Will Express the Hope That Cuba
Will Not ProIOng the War.
New YORK, Nov. 2O.-The World FRI
day morning makes the following
statement:
The World is able to say on very
high authority that President McKin-
ley will tacitly approve the programme
for autonomy, or home rule for Cuba,
which Spain now promises.
Second, that the president will ex
press the hope that Cubans will no.
prolOng their war for complete indie
pendence, but will accept instead g
form of autonomy.
Third, that if the Cubans do not
heed his advice Spain will be given
more time without interference from
the United States.
Fourth, the president says that he
ardently desires peace both at home
and abroad. War scares and belliger-
ency resolutions disturb business, re-
tards prosperity and do no good. A
new congress is to be chosen next fall
and everything depends on good
| times A season of peace from Cuban
sensations is therefore now almost Ger.
| tain.
Fifth, Spain has been informed OF
McKinley's hopes and plans, and as the
first evidence of her own fond inten-
tions and good will, she pardoned and
released Thursday the American crew
of the filibustering schooner Compete
tor, caught under arms off the coast OF
Cuba on April Is, 1896"

larly of the types and characteristics
of tobaccos adapted to each of the diff
ferent foreign markets; the methods OF
curing, sorting, fermenting and pack
ing, with recommendations for such
changes in these methods as will in
sure an increased price for the prod
