The building was reduced to a chell, with a loss of about $100,000.

Eighty-five horses were removed three or four blocks to the south. ‘The fire was put out toor by floor from the second to the top, t?. ninth floor being the last ablaze, Employees of the New York Dock Company said they were mystified by the fire, which they could not ac. wen for.
