Although minus It stock and building
after the conflngratlon of Tuesday evening,
the I'nlon Transfer company was doing
business yeaterday in new quarter. The
office force, which was practically all that
was left of the concern, was Installed yes
terday morning In a portion of the Fuller
& Johnson company's building, at the cor
ner of Main street and Seventh avenue.
The large vault in the burned building
waa opened shortly before noon yesterday
by cutting a hole through the wall. The
books and papers of the firm were found
to be In surprisingly good condition. Some
of the loose papers were more or less
scorched on the edge and were somewhat
damp, 'but otherwise were Intact and were
perfectly legible. The desks and other of
fice Impedimenta, which had been placed in
the vault when the fire waa first discovered,
were In good condition, although the seven
i typewriting machines on being exposed to
the air at once became covered with rust.
Everything, however, was In such shape
that the office force aa sofln aa It Becured
office quarters In the Fuller & Johnson
building was able to go to work at once.
The checking up of the Insurance carried
by the Union Transfer company showed the
amount to be T.5C0, Instead of 157,000 Or
$00,000, as was be"eved to have been the
amount by Manager W. A. Southard Tues
day night. '

A Mr. Southard estimated the value of
the atock carried by the Union Transfer
company at. between $76,000 and $85,000. It
will be aeen that with $68,000 Insurance the
loea will not be very great. The loss on
the building, however, la Targe, aa the
structure could not be rebuilt, - It 1 said,
for les than $50,000 or even more.
Remain In Connoll man's.
Mr. Southard yesterday was unable to
state what the future pli.ns of the com
pany would be, ' otherwise than that It
would continue In business. He aald: "I
cannot' say - where we will locate, but I
know of no building In this city large
enough for our purposes. Of course a new
building might be erected for us on the
site of the .old ope or elsewhere, but I
don't quite aee how we can wait until such
a building Is erected. We transacted over
$400,000 worth of buslnea during this year
and we have plenty of work ahead of us
straightening this up and completing de
liveries. Of course, until we secure a new
warehouse and can atock up again all de
liveries will have to be made direct from
the factories. iVe will certainly stay In
Council Bluffs, at leaat for the present, and
that la, about all I can say at this time."
F. R. Davis, . chairman of the executive
committor of the Commercial club, an
nounced yesterday that every effort would
be made to provide suitable quarter for the
Union Transfe company, and that if neces
sary Immediate steps would be taken to erect
a warehouse building for the company.
"Council Bluff Is the natural distributing
point of the west for the Implement a It
1 for other business. The destruction of
one or two building cannot disturb the
city's natural status In th Implement
world." ,
Tuesday nlght'a fire again calls attention
to the lack of proper fir fighting facili
ties In this city. Not only are larger mains
needed on South Main street, but additional
equipment for the fire department. Dis
cussing this pbase of the disastrous fire
yesterday Mayor Macrae said that the city
should have two steamers and ladder
equipment sufficient to reach up to a five
or. six story building.- It . 1 likely that
Mayor Macrae will bring up this matter at
the meeting of the city council next Mon
day. New Cottage Rarned.

DES MOINES, 1'PC. 12. (Special. )-At the
meeting of the Coin Belt Meat Producers'
association today strong resolutions were
paused favoring a 2-cent fare law. a Joint
fielKht rate and the enactment of a law
authorising the attorney grneral of the
state to prosecute before the Interstate
Commerce commission all discrimination
In rates by Iowa railroads. The slow time
on live stock trains was condemned, and
the position taken that the government
should pay the cost of Inspecting meat
under the Inspection law. The resolutions
were the chief work of the association to
day. A committee was busy In drafting
the resolutions all djy and reported late
thla afternoon. They praise President
Roosevelt and those with him for the
Interstate commerce law and tho meat in
spection bill and endorse the organization
of the Co-Operative Live Stock Commission
company, which haa offices at Chicago,
St. Louts, Sioux City and Omaha, and
which waa organised for the purpose of
bucking the other commission houses which
had raised their commission rates.
The resolutions then proceed to praise
Secretary Wilson for his work In the De
partment of Agriculture and for the meat
Inspections and condemn the movement to
force the packers or the live stock pro
ducers to pay the costs of the Inxpectlon.

do everything possible to secure an appro
priation large enough to enable Secretary
Wilson to make adequate and thorough in
spections. State Fair Haa Profit.
