MEDICAL BUILDING IN RUINS
Second Disastrous Fire at McGiII
University.

Montreal, April ia second dis
astrous fire within two weeks has Wis
tied McGill university and practically
destroyed the medical building, one Of
the oldest and most valuable of the
splendid collection on the college
grounds. The results of the fire were
most disastrous, as in addition to the
usual equipment Of a college medical
building the museum, one Of the best
on the continent, was destroyed. The
loss in this cannot be considered in
money value, as the museum has been
collecting for nearly three-quarters of
a century and contained many abso,
lutely priceless specimens. The mag
nificent library, however, was saved.
Immediately after the disastrous
fire which wiped out the engineer
building the university authorities, it
is understood, placed $500, 900 of extra
insurance On the whole university
plant. The medical building will
share in this, but 1t is doubtful
whether the insurance will cover one
half of the actual damage. The build.
ings were erected at a cost of about
$350,G00. The collections which they
contained are practically beyond all
estimate as to value.
