REDDING, Sept. 24.-The total loss
by the fire that destroyed a-number of
buildings in this city late last night
is now estimated at s75,600, with insur-
ance of $43,200. A high wind at times
carried the burning embers two and
three blocks, and hundreds of persons
were kept busy for two hours putting
out incipient fires on the tops of build
ings in the business part of the city.
That the fire was the work of an
incendiary in the Italian quarter is the
general belief and two suspected men
have been arrested and placed in jail
pending an investigation.
The losses in detail are as follows:
sRedding feed company, warehouse
and grain. $4,000, insurance $4,000:
San Francisco brewers bottling build
ing, $4,000. insurance $2,750; J. Hoefer

tel, $4,000, insurance $4,000: John Coax

$4,000. insurance $500; minor losses.
about $500, insured for about half
that amount
City trustees met this afternoon and
took steps to prevent a recurrence of
similar fire. The two blocks of burnt
district will be thrown into fire limits
and construction of wooden buildings
on old sites prevented. Four other

could hit like q pile driver and was ms clever
