From information given out at the
Office of Hon. S. w. carr of BowdOin-
ham, insurance commissioner of the
State, Monday, it is learned that the
fire loss in the State for the year now
drawing to close will be a large one,
and in the opinion Of the department 1t
will be larger than that of any year
since the establishment of the depart
ment. The report of the department
tor the year 1906 shows that there
We're in the State during that year
1S41 fires which We're reported to the
department, and the loss therefrom
amounted to S2,21S,729
The loss for the present year WILL
according to all indications. exceed
that figure by quite 3 margin. OF
course a close estimate can hardly be
given at this time as reports from
many of the smaller fires have not
been received at the department. but
an examination of the records for the
year shows that from the reports re-
Ceived at the department up to Nov L
there have been 40 fires in the state
which have each been accompanied by
Il loss of $4,000 and upwards, the total
loss being 81, S43.5'3.

which these fires have occurred are
