of Hyder, $750.
Damage to Rozenstain store
and dwelling, $1500.
It is understood that a ma
jority of the destroyed houses
will be rebuilt as soon as tha
necessary preparations can be
completed.
In addition to the above all
guests of the Provinse Hotel
suffered losses of clothing and
valuables ranging from several
hundred to upward of $2000.
Dr. Rae L. Carlson lost optical
instruments valued at approxi
mately $1000. Frank A. Met
calf, U. S. Mineral Surveyor,
also lost surveying instruments
and other effects of consider
able value. As far as could be
ascertained these losses will
add about $5000 to the total.
A new Studebaker Six owned
by T. W. McDonald and
stored in the Mc
Donald’ garage was also
among the losses. The car was
backed out of the garage
but could not be moved
beyond the danger zone owing
to the steering mechanism be
ing locked. Mrs. Mary Carlson,
also lost a considerable sum
in valuable jewelry and cloth
ing in the destruction of the
Ideal Cafe building; while the
personal loss of Marshal and
Mrs. Martin will be not less
than $750, according to pre
liminary estimates.
James Roberts, manager of
P. Burns & Co., also lost per
sonal effects valued at $150.
Stewart residents vied with
those of Hyder in doing every
thing possible to protect prop
erty and save valuables dur
ing the course of the confla
gration, in addition to sending
over fire extinguishers and
ladders, thus further sealing
the bond of amity existing be
tween the citizens of Hyder
and their Canadian neighbors.
Credit for the saving of the
upper townsite from probably
destruction, as a result of the
forest fire, is conceded to be
due largely to the valiant ef
forts of the Premier mine
crews led by Mr. Pitt. For
many hours after the fire was
out the mine crews continued
the battle in the woods north
of town. With dozens of small
fires springing up on every
side, during the course of the
afternoon and the succeeding
night, wide spread destruction
was prevented in the upper
end of town only by the con
stant vigilance and labor given
by the Premier forces.
