The fire could M.,ivi teen extinguished In five mln-iits.-i had tht firemen teen able to f ft water -to. the proper place in the hn "-ant,, but they were prevented by . it volume of dense smoke that Issued from, every egress and crevice. : They ran from one place to another, seeking a point of vantage, but were able to do practically nothlns toward securing an inlet. to ,the basement lAfter pouring water rather indls crlminaitely for nearly the entlrs hour, and thus striking blindly at the neat of the trouble, the smoke was finally reduced to such a minimum as to permit effective work with . the (hose; . A few dashes of the - ,full stream t water extinguished Mae flames entirely., v the loss I20,ooo. . .Mr. St. A. Murrill, president and general manager of the 1 Queen City I Printing an Paper Company, stated , last night that his los would approx imate 120,000. The entire, damage re sulted from the flood of water that was - kept pouring into the building. : In 'the bindery department the loss Is complete, except the machinery, con " eteting of the presses and linotype ma-chines,- which were covered by rub .: ber blankets and thereby saved from ; total destruction. j. All the paper and binding material Is absolutely worth- less, the water reducing It ' to mere refuse, fln the office, on the first ' . floor, and facing rourth street' there is also great loss. In this depart , ... wnenf desks, office furniture of all kinds and paper and printing articles - were- badly damaged by the water, hardly a swinge of fire being notice able. The fact Is the fire, never came ; from the? basement1: f It played about wildly In this close covert at times licking and sticking ta the floor of the ; rround. .offlces,; buti ;jnever .cominj through.'. , ,V ;THB INSURANCES,! 17,000. J V ; While Mr. Murrill places his ' loss . at, $20,000, .this does not' mean that - Athere is $20,000 worth of stuff actuar ly disintegrated. The net -loss would not reach that sum, but would prab i " ably be as much as the ; Insurance will i cover. Mr. Murrill had f thai wisdom ' to carry blanket, policies' which i pro - tected everything In hla snop from ' the article of the highest to the least . value. The 1 total Insurance .will amount to $17,000 Some of. this ; amount was carried with the follow - Ing named companies: r ' - . ': Piedmont Fire Insurance Company, - of Charlotte. $5,500. '. Virginia Fire and Marine Insurance , Company,?, of : Richmond, Va,i $1,000. ' " . The Ejun Fire Insurance Company, . of New Orleans. $1,000. 1 ' ' - ' v, ; - The Fire Association", of ..Phlladel- - phla, $1,000. - , , The Pennsylvania Fire ; Insurance Company, of Philadelphia $1.500.. The Commercial Wnon, of England, $2,500; on linotype miwhlne, $2,500. These policies were carried with the i Insurance agency of C, N- G. BuV & Co. There are two or three other policies which will run the sum up to approximately. $17,000. ' . j THE ORIGIN OF THE FIRE. v.' ' v The fire originated In the basement w here Is stored uch atuft as is gen erally thrown raway around-a print-shop. Boxes of various .kinds, all grades of odds and.) ends of paper, and refuse generally, were stored - there. The flames were probably conveyd. to . this material by the furnace, there be ' ing no Other plausTble theory as to Vhow the flames could have been start , ( ' ed. The first intimation- that the em- - ployes of the establishment had of the Are came when Mr, Frank ?C. Farnan, who was sitting In the Office de-tected the oflor of the burning pa per. He - looked around but saw ' nothing until he discovered tiny bits of smoke ooslng up the elevator A" shaft. , Hs at once.. Investigated lt and . found the, basement and all its con tents afire; He turned' in the. alarm and the fire 'departments came to the scene even before the gong .had ceas ' - ed sounding.. . . ; , w TH& FIREMEN'S FIGHT. " '' The' firemen discovered at once that they .had a serious " proposition before them. - They-were unable to tell immediately to what extent was the hazard of the valuable adjacent ' buildings, Jbut the vast waves of smoke that Issued from every crevice of the building indicated ithat a wild ".. Are was -raging within. Several un successful attempts" ' were made to ge inside, but the firemen were1 driv. f- in back, powerless to stand' before' the - belching smoke. After battling. brave- ly and with seeming dlscretlontor a - ' long time, Chief Orrv after a number "'of vain -efforts, succeeded In, breaking ' ''.he basement door and got a line, of :. tiose .inside V)t-cellar, i. Water ! was poured Jn after the guage of . floods until It finally stood mbre than two ( feet deep in the basenfent. In the ex . cltement of the hour, It was , also turned into the office and the second story and ruin was' thus wrought in ' ? ; thee" departments. - . ' . . GREAT: CROWDS GATHERED, s Httween S and 4 o'clock, wWll the . flre was at Its worst, . great crowds . gathered on Eourth street and ' ftTsO 1 on South Tryon, particularly near the spot where the engine stood, pumping terrifically lnn effort to stand up to the needs of the occasion.: Btrcet nrs and traffic generally stopped on , Tryon street lines of hose being ex- tended up and down-across and In z!g-cag fashion, fastened to -every hydrant in the neighborhood of the " Are, The firemen bad prepared for a desoerat flgbt. "-The adjacent buildings were. un damaged. At times -it looked a If the' building occupied by ,the Saeo Tette Machine Works wait fn Immi nent danwr. but no real hurt resulted at all. There wer times, too, wheit the ocurrfinta of all the other bulld Inirs that stand In solid line on Fourth street were fearful lest t the firemen ! would "fait to check the flames, once thv burst from the basement of the , building In which they were confined. MUSCULAR FAINS CVISED. - ' "During the rummer of 1!xn I was trou Md with munoulBr pnlns in the instep of ' my foot," siy Mr. K. Pellar, of To ronto, Ont. At t!nis It was tn painful .
