HUNDREDS OF VISITORS
VIEW THE FIRE RUINS.
Mores Safes Taken Out and Their Con-
tents Found in Fair Condition
Clearing 10 Debris a Slow Job.


Trolley cars from every direction
brought large crowds here on Sunday
to view the ruins of the Shannon and
Chelsea buildings fire. The square was
filled during the day with the extlt
visitors, and Chief Murphy had men
stationed about the place all day. Elk
ira cars were run on several trips to
accommodate the crowds.
On Saturday afternoon Frank H. Al
len returned from the SOUTH having
been summoned home by news of the
fire and the death of his brother-in-
law, John E. Warner. His safe, which
had been taken out Friday, was scorch-
ed, but in a fair stste of preservation,
much better than none. He carried an
insurance on his property. but there
were many valuable belongings which
were lost and they were as valuable
as much that was in his safe. His in
surance, however, does not cover his
loss, he states, as the property he had
there represents the Accommodations of
thirty years. Considering what 1t had
gone through. he thought it was for
tunate to get what he did from his
safe.
Saturday morning the safe of John
N. Mascot was taken from the ruins,
and 1t was found that the contents
were all right. The combination work
ed and there was no trouble opening
It. The safe was not badly damaged,
end will probably be in fit condition
for further use. There were several
hundred dollars in money. effects and
bankbooks in the safe. He also locat-
ed his money drawer and removed the
money in fair condition.
There are several other safes which
are in the ruins, one being visible at
the front, under a quantity Of brick
which can be easily haken out when
desired.
The large Reid & Hughes safe, which
was taken from the rear of the ruins
is on exhibition In what used to be the
door to the millinery rooms of the By
ton Store.

dramatic talent was clearly shown by
