bridge, was entirely destroyed by FIRE about
noon today together with 1000 tons Of
dock The total loss is estimated at $780,
600. The insurance is about S340, 600.
II seems certain that the FIRE was started
by an incendisry. as a man was seen leav-
ing the dock after the fire had gained some
Roadway. The police station was nvt1ned as
soon as possible. but before an officer ar
rived the man disappeared.
Three times during the last fortnight
fires have been started on docks in this
city and it is supposed that the same man
is responsible for all OF them.
The FIRE broke out shortly before noon
and it looked for a while as though the
entire line OF docks on the east side OF the
river would be burned; indeed, several
times Irving dock. adjoining. caught FIRE,
but by diligent efforts on the part Of the
fire department the flames were confined to
Victoria dock and a few small buildings
nearby.
Several small houses near the dock were
destroyed. the less on them aggregatihg
$4,000.
Earlier in the day the half block Of frame
buildings bounded by Mississippi, Russell
and Goldsmith streets. in Albin. not far
from Victoria dock, was destroyed. Eigh-
teen families who lived In the block were
rendered homeless. The ground floor Wa
occupied by several small stores. The
total loss is about SIS, 900.
