WILL REBUILD
 IMMEDIATELY
  BOILER AND MACHINE SHOPS AT COTTON BELT YARDS BADLY DAMAGED BY FIRE.
LOSS IS ABOUT $50,00o
Origin of the Fire Cann0t Be LearH- ed-ise Men Employed in
 the Building.

Superintendent of Motive Power T. k. Adams, of the Cotton Belt servl;e here, stated Monday morning that that company would rebuild it's man. moth boiler and machine shops. which was partially destroyed by fire at all early hour Monday morning. entailing q loss Of about s50.O0o. which is fully covered by insurance in foreign companies. While the damage is estimated at S50,o0G. Mir. Adams believes that the loss may go under that figure.
 The building, 350yt25 feet, was gut ted and much of tue machinery so hadly damaged that it will have to be replaced with new material. The walls of the building still stand, but the roof was entirely burned away and the interior of tic structure left unfit for occupancy. One hundred and fifty men are employed in this department, but it is believed that they will be put back to work with in tie next ten days. as plans are already under way to repair and re- furnish the building.
 The time clock in the building shows that the watch1nan had been in the buiidf. Q just fifteen minutes before the fire was discovered and the origin of the costly blaze eanno1 be learned.
 The company ftFe department at the shops did effective work and de- spite the fact that the boys from en- e.n3 company. No. had to stretch hose thirteen hundred feet from Sec ond avenue and Nebraska street, they aided materially in preventing inc flames iron. spreading to adjoining buildings iil the shop yards and help ed to extinguish the fire in the ma chine shop.
 Fred" one of the fire horses from engine house, No. i, was injured dur ing the fire. but not seriously.
 Owing to the fact that the fire oc- curred jus at the midnight hour. when many people were celebrating the incoming new year. the fire at tracted a large crowd to the scene.
 While no figures are obtainable, it Is reported that the insurance car ried or the boiler and machine shop. is about $s7,500. Although Superin- tendent Adams places the loss at about $50,000. others estimate the loss at $12O,00o. While 150 men are employed in the boiler and machine shops, 1t is reported that fully three hundred men will be out of employ ment. until the department ts re- established.
