BURNS AT vERMILLION

Vermillion, s. D., April Fire here
early Sunday morning destroyed the
large new armers elevator. The cause
OF the blaze is unknown yet it is the
opinion Of several people that 1t was
the work OF an incendiary as the fire
started under the southwest corner of
the building, so feet from the engine
room. The bins contained upwards of
10000 bushels of grain, the most of
which was corn. The farmers carried
$4,000 insurance, which does not cover
the loss.
The elevator company has not lost
heart over the calamity, but negotia-
tons win be commenced al once to pur-
chase the Truax elevator close bv. IN
which to do business until another new
one car be erected.
