MRS. CLARA QUINN WILL ERECT
BRICK FOR THE JOHN
SMITH COMPANY.
Jacob Betz Has About Decided to Re.
place His Burned Building With
Substantial Brick.

New brick buildings will replace
those burned in yesterday mornings
fire. Before the ruins occasioned by
yesterdays blaze had stopped burning
ARRANGEMENTS had been partially COM
pleted by Mrs. Clara Quinn to erect a
brick building for the John Smith COM
pany and Jacob Betz, whose brick was
practically destroyed, had definitely
decided to replace the structure with
a good, substantial brick.
The building to be erected by MRS.
Quinn will probably be a one-story
brick so constructed that additional
stories can be added as needed. Work
on the Quinn building will be started
as soon as it is determined whether or
not the stone foundation supporting
the building burned yesterday can be
utilized. The stone work was subject
to terrific heat and until the walls cool
off it is impossible to make thorough
examination of them.
The John Smith company yesterday
afternoon completed arrangements to
resume business in a huge tent located
at the corner of Rose and ColVllle
streets. These quarters will be occu-
pied until the new building is COM
pleted. E. H Massam, who owns ~
feet next to the Betz building, has not
decided yet whether he will rebuild.
1t was understood today that negotla-
tions were under way for the sale OF
the property to Mrs. Quinn who would
then extend the new building to be
erected to the Betz building.
Neither T. D. Sheehan or A. G'
Schott, VINO were burned out, have de-
cided on their future plans. lnsur-
ance adiusters are expected to arrive
in a day or so and adjust the losses
sustained yesterday.
