Oft by the flames was so intense that

forts were directed to saving adjoining
structures and lumber sheds from de-
struction. The loss is principally to
raisins and dried fruits, with which the
packing house was stored. a hundred
tons Of dried apricots that had been re-
oeiVed during the last four or five days
and 500 tons of raisins, valued at S4S, 600
and insured, were consumed. The april
cots were valued at $4,000
G. r. Noble attributes the origin Of
the fire to a spark from a passing en-
gine. The firms individual loss is be-
tween $25, 900 and $40, 600, covered by in
surance.
Insurance men are responsible for the
statement that the fire would probably
result in canceling all packing house
