Manuel T. Hatch, manager of the
Hatch & Bailey Lumber Company,
will, this afternoon, lease some dock
property, on Water street, in which to
store their lumber. Mr. Hatch is ne-
gotiatine with several people, and will
definitely decide this afternoon.
A tliree-masted schooner, consign~
ed to the company, is awaiting unload-
ing. and will be unloaded at'the new
yard. Another big cargo is expected
in tombrrow and the company will be
in better shape than ever to do busi-
ness. in the meanwhile, however, the
company members are right on the
job, carrying on their extensive busi-
ness from their Marshall street yard,
where they carry over $25,000 worth
of lumber.
There will be a meeting of the in-
surance adjusters in South Norwaik,
at the office. of J. M. Layton & Com-
pany, inc., on Wednesday, the 15th
inst, at which time the losses in the
Hatch & Bailey Company fire will be
considered. A large number of com
punies are represented in the fire loss-.

It is understood that the commer-
cial companies carried about $31,000
of insurance on the propert3 of the
company, and that the Lumbermens
Protecti3e -\ssociation had 830, 000.
This will be ample to cover all lossesI
sustained by the company.
