FROM WASHINGTON. the "POST” BUILDING DESTROYED BY THE fire. ,« leading Heweoapere o» the City affsctad—The Loee Very Hfa.y ••Report of the Bureau of statistics—Notes. WiawKGTOK, Ju'y fire broke oat in the Poet banding, corner Tenth and D t reets, suddenly this evening and eoon the nnper etories were wrapped in flames. The budding was occupied by the Wash ington Dally Post, National Republican, Washington Critic, Sunday Gazette, United States Elec trio Light Company, district gas inspector, Lee’s restaurant, Joseph Shorter’s barber shop and Nealy’s litho graphing establishment. The editorial, composing and press rooms of four papers are completely ruined, and the business oKces are flooded with water. The bttlld- j„g which is owned by Stilaon Hutchings, was valued at ISO, don and is said to be covered by insurance, though this cannot hedeflnltely ascertained until the arrival ol Hutchins, who is at present in New Hampshire, and whose Business papers here are locked up in his private desk. The Post and Republican used the same valued at 120,000, and on which in surance policies to the amount of $15,000 were taken out to day. The Critic press was valued at $15,000 and is supposed to have been Insured. In the base ment of the Republican office was a press owned bv ex-Secretary Chandler and val ued at $25,000. It is not yet known wheth er this was Insured. Nealy’s loss is esti mated at $3,000. Hehad in his charge the plates of a new book entitled "The Nation al Capitol.” The Washington Post and the present plates were very valuable and are a total loss. Besides the pistes 5,000 coplea of the new work were burned. Lee's restaurant was a popular resort for South ern visitors to Washington, especially tboie from Booth Carolina and Georgia. His loss is $5,000, with $2 500 insur ance. The Gazette Is owned by Thos. G. Morrow, whose loss is not heavy. Bhorter'a loss is hut $300. The total loss f ill reach $150 000, about two-thirds ol hich is covered by insurance. The edi tors of the livening 8tar at once tendered the use of tbelr office to both the Post and Republican, and tnese papers will be is sued as usnal to-rnorning. The Star has two presses, eitber of which la capable to printing’.the,entire edition ;of both the Post and Republican. While the Post building was atUl in flames the editors ami primers of th* Pott and K'pnblican were hard at work at the Star office, preparing for tomorrow's lsrae While the origin of the Are is not definitely knovn it is believed to have broken out in the engine room of the Electric Light Company plant. This com pany was in the Post building and soon after the fire broke oat every electric light In Ibe town was suddenly extinguished, leaving certain quarters of the city in complete darkness. Walter Hutchins, of tbe Post, gives the foliosing estimate ol tbe losses: The Post, including loss on its building, $82,000; the Republican. 135.000; the Oritio. $30 000; tbe Elect, io Light Companv $.00,000; other losses, $3 000-total, $100,000. Tbe loss is almost entirely covered ny Insurance. Tbe most serlons loss to tbe Post Is tbs burning of its mailing list of the weekly edition. Two of Its presses were saved in a dam aged condition, and tba type of the Re publican can soon be placed in good otder again. Tbere will be no interruption In the publication of any of the journals.
