The news reached here early Wednesday morning of the loss by fire of McCray & Morrison's large elevator at Raub. This was considered to be the best elevator in this part of the country, and was certainaly the finest one in their holdings. At the time of the fire there was stored 9,000 bushels of oats and 1.200 bushels of corn, all without a cent of insurance. The building was easily worth SB,OOO and was insured for $5,500. The actual loss to McCray & Morrison not covered by insurance can be but little less than $6,000. The fire started about 4 o’clock in the morning, and it is thought I was started by lightning, as the electric storm was quite sharp during the night. Without question the elevator will be rebuilt. —Kentland Enterprise.
