destroyed, with prospects that the total
loss will reach at least S5, 600. 600. The
fire started in the Photographic supply
house of o. II. Peck & Co., on Fifth
street and First Avenue south, and in
less than onc-half hour this building was
a mass Of wreckage. Next to the Peek
building is the furniture supply house of
Boutelle Brothers, the largest house OF
its kind in the Northwest This build
ing soon caught fire, and is now burning,
the sparks from it, carried blocks by the
north wind which is blowing, causing
several small fires throughout the city.
Relief has been secured from st. Paul
that city having sent all its available fire
apparatus. With the strong wind blow
ing. aided by zero weather, the firemen
are experiencing severe difficulty iu their
work which has not as yet been effective,
as the fire is burning itself out in one OF
two buildings, and their work is entire
ly directed to the buildings IN close prox-
imity in sn attempt to save them. 1t j;
