original estimate and statements from
the firms involved place the loss ut
si.450.00o
This loss falls mostly on the firms
OF Bremen G. Co., and Sanford G. Co.,
and Is divided rs follows:

ings. 100000.
]. 3. Sanford & Co.. 100000.

Other concerns In the block about
100000.
The fire was the largest that has
ever occurred in Monterey and for q
time threatened the destruction of the
entire business portion of the city.
To the absence Of wind is ascribsd
the fact that the fire was confined to
one block, although 1t took some hard
work to save buildings on the opposite
side Of the street from the fire.
The fire was brought under control
about 1880 Sunday and although q
large force of gendarmes were kept
on duty all day today and several
streams Of water were Kept constant
" playing on the smoidering ruins. r
On account OF the danger from fall
ing wallis, street cars on the streets
through the fire districts are routed
over other lines.
Telegraph service cut OF Monterey
was entirely cut on by the burning
or the poles but the federal company
was able to re-establish communities

ownership of Clipperton Island in the
Pacific ocean. arouses considerable in
terest here owing to the expected COM
pletion OF the Panama Canal by 1915.
The island is IN dispute between
France and Mexico. The Italian gov
ernment has Indicated it's willingness
to act as arbitrator in settling the
question. Should the arbitration bo
decided favorably to France It would
mean simply another station in the
line OF that governments possession

The island lies $40 miles southwest
Of the harbor OF Acapulco. Mexico.
The island is q very dangerous.
eter and navigators are advised to ap-
proach II with great caution.
France claims the island not only
on the ground OF the discovery of q
French captain two centuries ago but
also on that of the taking OF formal
possession by q French naval officer
sent out for the purpose in 1858.
Mexico has exercised some author
ity over the phosphate Industry and at

Mexico City. Aug. 22.-The confia-

ated In the laboratory of the Botica

light wire. and soon communicated to
the highly iniammable chemicals and
oils with which this building was
stored.
II was just 10 o'clock the first explo-
sion occurred. Following this came
other explosions of chemicals, one OF
them sending large piece of tho ma
chinery high into the air. which, in
falling, crashed through the building
clear to the ground, floor. These ex-
plosions shot the flames fully 500 feet
into the air. During this time the
flames were pouring from the windows,
threatening the buildings on the north
side of the streets At 1880 o'clock
the flames communicated to the house
Of J.. b. Sanford, which was COM
pleteiy Quilted in a short time.
A great panic prevailed during the
burning of the Sanford building when
a mufied explosion was heard. 1t was
known that this firm deals in dynamite
and 1t was thought that large guam
tity Of this was stored in the build
ing, but there was just one small can

plosive..

grafton in the cotton crop in Missis-

crop in Louisiana as that which pre-

weekly crop report Of The Picsyune Is
sued tonight.
While some sections Of Louisiana re-
port that excessively hot weather Of
the last week has caused serious de-
terioration in the cotton crop. the gem
eral estimate appears to be that the
plant has held its own. In the low
lands there was @suficient moisture In
the soil to counteract the effects OF
the hot and dry temperatures.
Mississippi conditions are not favor
able. Cotton opened very rapidly be-
meath the intense heat but deteriora-
ton resulted because of immaturtty.
In some sections labor refused to take
the field because Of the hot weather
and some cotton was lost in this man

Mr.. Schmidt was one of the old
and well known residents of
Brownsville. His death was some
what sudden, resulting from an
acute attack of Indigestion, but he
had been in bad health for years
suffering from Bright's disease.
Mr.. Schmidt was native of Den
mark, having come to this coun-
try after attaining the years of
manhood. He was a man of edu-
cation and possessed a fine fund of
general information, which made
him always an interesting CONVEX
sationalist. For a good many
years, he was engaged in teaching
in the public schools of this coun-
ty. As a man, he was stauuch
and true to his friends and his
convictions. The older residents
of the Valley knew him well, and
he enjoyed the respect and esteem
of all. He will be missed by many
friends.
No relatives of Mr.. Schmidt s
reside at Brownsville, and the
nearest living relative of his known
of here is brother living in New
York. A telegram was sent to the
latter for instructions as to the
disposition of the remains. but no
answer was received up to noon
today.
