Injurned to the ex tent of about $5,000. No. 43 Hayne street, owned by Johnson, Crews & Brawley. Building entirely dcslmyed. Partially insured for $12,500. Occupied by" the Courier office, who have an insurance of 810,000 on their stock, which may cover their loss. No. 41 Hayne street, owned by .John?. on, Crews & Bradley. Building totally destroyed. Partially insured for $12,500. Occur iod in the lower part by Mr. W. II. Ch.ifce, as a wholesale grocery establishment. Stock worth $:-;o,ooo. Entirely lost iusured for $15,000. Tlie uj j er part of this building was used by Messrs. W. T. Burge & Co. No. 39 Hayne street, owned and occupied by Hastie, Calhoun & Co., as a wholesale shoe and naddlery house. Building entirely burnt. There was, we are informed, a partial insurance on (he store to the amount of some $8,000. Their stock had not all come to hand, and they had not yet opened for business; but there weic goods in store to the value of $23,000, which were burnt. Some $15,000 of this was the properly of the proprietors and was covered by insurance. The balance, some $8,000 in value, belonged lo other parties. No. 37, formerly occupied and owned by Hyatt, McBurney Co., was somewhat injured, and other buildings around were more or lesn damaged. Messrs. Jennings, Thomlinson & to , at .No. 35 Hayne street, report small losses, covered by insurance. It would be difficult to stat the exact :. mount of loss which has been sustained by this unfor tunate conflagration, but we presume it is near $200,000. The insurance on the buildings that will be called for to sustain tne loss will be about $40,000, which will not pay more than half the aclual destruction. Of the value of the stocks and materials which were destroyed we can but approximate. Upon dilhgcni inquiry, we think the amount to be about $100,uu0, which some $00,000 was covered by insurance. CASUALTIES. About 11 A. M. to-day, after the fire was sup pressed, a number of persons entered between the burnt walls for the purpose of removing a valuable iron chest, and while there the walls fell in, oovering up or injuring more or less se riously some twenty-five persons, as near as can be calculated at present. Captain Hoffman, Chief of Military Police, is badly hurt, his thigh fractured, and has received a most severe cut on the head. Some five or si other white men, principally of the police force, were very bad.y injured, and one of them, it is feared, fatally hurt. Three colored men have been killed out right, and a number of others have suffered severely. The smoke is so dense around the fire that the efforts to remote the rubbish aud . m 1 xv 1 i x.
