The total loss is placed at $15,000, and was only partially insured. O. E. Nor ris & Bro. carried on building and oom tents insnranoe amounting to $4,800. W. E. Odom had insurance amounting to $000 on his store and merchandise. Some of the contents were taken out of several of the stores before they were destroyed, but in tbe main, the stooks of merchandise proved oomplete losses to their owners'.
