FIRE DESTROY OFFIGE AUILDING Atlas Block in Salt Lake Burns With Amaz- ing Rapidity. SALT LAKE, Feb. 11.—Fire that started in the Atlas block, a large flve-story office | building located on Second South street and in the heart of the business section, at 2:30 this morning completely gutted that bullding, spread to the Central block, leaving that structure a wreck, and did other damage that will bring the total loss close to $275,000, with insurance of about half that amount. The fire was one of the flercest in the history of the cify and consumed the destroyed bulld- ings with remarkable rapidity. Several lcdgers on the top floor of the Atlas block had miraculous escapes from death. The principal losers are: S. S. Walker estate, owners of Atlas building, $100,000; Salt Lake Hardware Company, stock, $75,000; tenants of Atlas block, $75,000; Central block, $25,000. The Bank of Com- merce and the private bank of F. E. Mc- | Gurrin & Co. occupled the gxgund floor of the destroyed Atlas block. Outside of office furnishings, however, their loss is Dbelieved to be small, although this cannot be determined until the ruins cool and the big vaults are opened. The D. F. Walker building, a four-story office buflding east of the Atlas block, was saved from destruction by a fortu~| nate change of wind. Several times the roof caught fire from the flame from the Atlas block, but no serfous damage was done. The_ Atlas block was occupied by scores of professional men, including physieians, dentists, lawyers, architects and mining brokers. Their losses are complete.
