blocks all along the line surged such
crowds as Baltimore has seldom seen,
From tho suburbs and the outlying
country districts came an army Of vlsl-
tors, many OF them driving carriages that
showed signs OF the muddy rural roads.
But it was an orderly crowd and gave
no trouble TO the police or soldiers. q.
At the banks, adjacent to the fire
section, guards We're atationed. On the
great broad plaza between the courts

was roped OF, and In the square thus
formed the first regiment OF the Mary
land National Guard was stationed, lTef
ouently being put through the manual Of
arms to warm up the half dozen militia
men
One OF the most remarkable freaks OF
the fire was the escape or the big gov
ernment buildings. The flames wrought
destruction on all sides OF this group Of
structures, except on the north. These
buildings are the City Hall, the United
States courthouse, used as temporary
headquarters of the sub-treasury pending
the erection OF the new building and by
the customs office, the posloilice build

Heavy Guard.
The utmost precautions against attack
on tho vaults were put into force, and a
heavy military guard safeguard every
room. corridor, window and walls OF the
building. The detail consisted Of fifty
eight men of the TWEEN ty-first Company,
Coast Artillery. who camc over from
Fort NIcHenry at tho request Of the sub

Ing, while every approach to the struc-
ture, which occupies a block in tho heart
of the city at the edge OF the burned
area. was heavily guarded and sentrics
kept the public from all the Sidewalks
on cvory side of the building.
These precautions were In contempla-
ton of tho presence OF the vast crowds.
Of tho chaotic conditions In the business

number of criminals that have come here.
Loss and Insurance.
AS yet no figures on loss and insurance

placed the loss in round figures at $685.
