since been renewed
1t is not known whether Mr.. Teeple had
any insurance. He himself was uncertain
about it. lie said that he mad been -un-
fortunate on account os the former fire
at his pace, and was not fully aware Of
the condition in which his policies stood.
His Insurance. if he has any, is with a.
C. Guerard & Son
There were a number of insurance men
at the fire, many of whom represent COM
panies. that have policies on the property
or the stocks carried in the buildings. The
aggregate Of all the policies that could be
ascertained was something more than $780,.
600. The companies, presented by J. +.
Wheaton &. co, carry the largest amounts,
some $1,000, being repre- scented in these six
companies.
Probably the greatest loss will be sus-
tanned by the companies that cover the
stock of Conkln & Co. 1t is said that
stock of aboat 100000 value is carried by
the firm and the damage will be great
on account of the water poured into the
building. 1t is thought some $4,000 is car
ried. OF this amount $500 is in the
companies represented by Wheaton & Co.
John d. Carswell has $4,000 on the stock
and another $4,000 is carried with the
companies represented by bearing & Hui.
Mr.. John T. Rowland has 5000 on the
stock. Mr.. Goddard of the firm of Conk-
lin & Co., was seen, but could not say
just what amount of insurance was car
ried He said the firm is protected. He
was not able TO say what the loss would
be. Hardware suffers greatly when water
Is thrown upon it on account of rust.
The hay and grain consumed on the
wharf was consigned to Law & Browder,
who had it insured with Wheaton & Co.
1t is not thought that the consignees will
lose much.
The Savannah Grocery Company was
covered and will not suffer any loss. The
insurance is $500, $1,000 of this amount
being with Wheaton & Co.. and the rest
with Myers & Holt. 1t is not known
whether Jackson carried any insurance.
The stock of c. r. Holmes, dealer in
produce, who occupied the building just
east of that occupied by Mr. Teeple was
damaged by both fire and water He has
insurance to the amount of $500 with j. l..
Archer & Co. The building suffered dam
age, but to what extent can scarcely be
estimated. This building is owned by an
estate in Boston, Mass. East of the store
occupied by Mr.. Holmes is that occupied
by w. Inman Miller. This is owned by
Mrs. Josephine Dieter, who has insurance
with J. L. Archer & Co. to the extent of
$1,000
The building occupied by Conklin & CO.
and owned by the United Hydraulic Press
Company was insured with Wheaton &
Co. for $3.50, $500 additional being car
ried by the firm on the wharf property
which is also owned by the Cotton Press
Company

THOUSANDS SAW THE FIRE.
Ray street and the Wharves
ThrOnged with Spectators.


ThrOnged with Spectators.
An immense crowd of people witnessed
The fire. Being Sunday. it furnished an at
traction for those who otherwise had THEN
time on their hands. The piles of lum-
Der on the wharves east of the fire were
black with thousands, who watched the
flames from this vantage ground. The
north side of Bay street, between Barnard
and Jefferson, was thronged, the crowd
impeding the work of the firemen by get
ting between them and the machines
which were stationed on Bay street. At
the foot of Montgomery street was an
other large crowd.
The crowds which watched the fire were
variously estimated at from 10000 to 20,-
900 people. They were of all classes and
degrees The work of the firemen was
generally praised. The situation was
difficult one. and it was seen if the fire.
men succeeded in averting a general con-
flagration they would be doing well. They
displayed admirable nerve in attacking
the fire in the most dangerous places, often
enduring severe heat. Chief Mcguire and
Assistant Mouro, both cool as veterans.
were everywhere directing the work, and
going themselves Into the most dangerous
places. There was probably more favor
able comment upon the work of the fire.
men than at any fire in the recent history
of the department. If the less was large
the firemen were not to blame
The people living in the little tenement
houses on both sides of Williamson street
were badly frightened, and moved out with
all their belongings. A wooden window
shutter on the water tower in Franklin
square caught fire from sparks, but the
blaze was quickly eXtinguished by one of
the chemical engines. The water tower is
no longer in use. and a fire there would not
have interfered with the work of the water
department.
A peculiar feature of the fire was the eff
feet produced by the high buildings inter-
vening between the flames as they first
broke out and the view of those in the
Southern section of the city. This was
not so noticeable after the fire had gotten
its greatest Roadway but at first it looked
as If there were two great CONGREGATIONS
on the northern side of the city. a dis
tanc9 of about a quarter of mile, appar-
entity, separated the fires. The glare, find
ing its way out from behind the big build
ings on the bluff at openings to the east
and west caused the effect. The distance
between the apparent fires was dark while
at the places at which they seemed TO be
located shone with bright CLEANS.
