REMINGTON THREATENED BY BIG CONFLAGRATION.

Farmers’ Friend Store Conducted by . Cohn and Kahn Discovered ~ Ablaze Early Monday Morning. > Cphe business block located on Ohio street north of the railroad at Remington had. a close call from destruction by fire early this Monday morning. The fire was discovered in the general store conducted by Cohn & Kahn and known as the Farmers’ Friend. The immense stock of goods was all ablaze at about 6 o’clock when discovered and the alarm given. . The fire company was quick- to respond and for about two hours the city water was played over the burning store room. The stock is thought to have been greatly damaged and the building which belonged to "Israel Taylor, of Peru, also suffered codsiderably, probably to the extent of f1,000,’ but the firemen were able by hard work to prevent the fire from extending to the other buildings of the block. The status of the insurance is not known, but it is thought they carried about $16,000 worth. It was this company that undertook some months ago to prevent insurance agent G. A. Chappel, of Remington, from “Cancelling a policy he had issued to them It was cancelled because Mr. Chappel thought the amount of stock carried did not justify so much insurance. The amount is understood to have been taken by other companies. Wordreceived from there is to the effect that the stock valued at $20,000 is almost a total ruin.
