Individual Immcs.
Most of the first floor furnishings
were removed from both parte.
The individual louses are hard to
ascertain today.' In the Ivanhoe home
the loss by complete destruction Is
conservatively placed at $200, and the
damage to furniture by water and re
moval In a edition to rtc'.ee. at pres
ent not known to be lost, will bring
the total up to $260 at the lowest estl
tnnte. Much of the first-floor furni
ture . was removed. Forrest Ivanhoe's
room was on the second floor, and all
the furnishings and fixings In It were
a total loss. Several Ingrain carpets,
summer clothing, and articles of ho
luimedlute value to the family, were
stored upstairs, where rescue could
not be effected.
Pit over and above such pecuniary
Ii sues as may be discovered, there
were pictures and family relics of
great value to the family, that are
missing. Some of them were saved,
tyit the driving snowstorm and"the wa
ter from the hose used In fighting the
flames completely ruined a great
number of photographs and other
perishable keepsakes.
The same thing Is more or less true
of the Buehler property. Not quite as
much of the household effects were re
moved, and the loss to Mr. Buehler
will be as great or even greater than
the loss sustained . by Mr. Ivanhoe.
Neither of the families carried Insur
ance on the household floods. The
residence was insured for $4000.
' Sufferers Are Grateful. '
The. most conspicuous feature of the
night's strenuouslty for the large
crowd that swarmed the lawns and
thoroughfares, ' was the extreme care
exercised by every workman. In only
one Instance did the excitement of the
hour cause carelessness, when one
lareg mirror was broken. But almost
without exception, furniture was
handled with the best of care, the vol
unteers keeping in mind the need of
caution In their work. The sufferers
are especially thankful for this. Mr.
and Mrs. Ivanhoe today wish It explic
itly stated that they are more than
grateful, not only for the disputch In
removing property, but the care shown
In doing It. A group of excited men
can do more damage than good In such
Instances, but last night this feature
was missing. "We are grateful to the
fire department and to the volunteers,
but we have no way of expressing it
excepting through the press," said Mrs.
Ivanhoe today. "The fact in the case
is, we have never known a case where
so much care was exercised by volun
teers under like circumstances, as Inst
evening."
Never before in the history of the
city has there been such a swarming
to house tops as during the height of
the fire. No more spectacular pyro
technlcal display has been seen here
than when the flames shot up from the
hurnlnar structure, sending great show
ers of sparks In a northwesterly direc
tion. The home of Pr. Molitor was not
the only one to be menaced; homes
several blocks away were is as great
danger on account of the gale carrying
the live embers a great distance. In
nn area Including several diockh. win-re
the flames would have devastated
dwelling after dwelling hud they j over
powered the department, the property
owners were r.piinkllng the house
tops. In the blmk: with the fire, the
barns and houses owned by Or. Molitor
and A. t Huntington, the contest with
the sparks was a lively one. The ad
joining block tas no less put of dan
ger. A belated visitor to the fire dis
covered n burning ember on the New
ton home, between Main and Wash
ington, on Third street. Timely aid
prevented a conflagration in that
thickly settled district of the city.
The menaced section of the city was
large, nnd once out of control there
could have been no means of staying
the mad progress until the railroad
tracks had been reached, thus laying
waste block after block.
li'tmi'ttoii Complete.
The Hllts-Andros structure is a
complete loss. The building of It has
been spasmodic, with the result that
there were Innumerable walls where
there was no obstruction to the flames.
For some time the only evidence of a
fire visible was occasional whiffs of
smoke making their way out between
the shlr.gl.'s of the rof. U afterward
developed that the walls were ablaze
during that time, though no one was
aware of It. From the basement the
flames follower the partitions to the
remotest corners. The house was built
In sections, from time to time, and on
ccount of these many partitions be-
