Brussels, Aug. 15.-It will take many
days to place the Belgian exposition
in a fit condition for the reopening, al
though a large majority of the build
ings are still intact The known loss
caused BY the fire which swept through
the white city" yesterday is between
S6.OOO,OOO and $40, 600. This is
chiefly confined 10 the Belgian and
British sections, but the damage by
smoke and water has been general ana
will add materially to the total loss
The American section escaped the
fires. The art exhibition was in a
building two miles distant from the
flames. The French loss is confined TO
the building in which various foods
were displayed and the pavilion OF the
city of Paris containing Industrial eX-
hibits and models of the schools or
arts.
The recovery of valuable collections
of Jewels helped to reduce the first
estimates of the loss. The magnificent
collection of precious stones owned by
Belgians and valued at $3,OO0,OOO was
unearthed from the ruins. unframed.
There was considerable pillaging
after and during the fire and thieves
made a heavy haul. Gendarmes caught
a number Of lOoters who had in their
possession scores of rings and bracelets
