Fire at Hull Block causes extensive damage and losses
A blaze at Hull Block last night caused damage estimated between 15 000 and 20 000 dollars, largely covered by insurance. The fire started in a carload of binder twine stored in Rae hardware basement and spread through the building, with smoke forcing tenants to evacuate. Fire crews fought for over two hours, flooding the basement, collapsing ceilings, and damaging Rae’s basement stock and McLeay millinery store. Damages to the millinery stock and Rae basement totalled about 13 000 dollars, with flooding potentially affecting the boiler room and flour in the National Bakery cellar. Total loss figures will be updated in coming days.
