Goods Were
Totally Destroyed By
Fire and Water.
Yesterday morning revealed the exact
damage done by the fire at the
Chu Kee store on the corner of King
and Kekaulike street. All the goods,
including dry goods, sewing machines,
notions of every kind, etc., were
completely destroyed by fire and water,
one solitary lamp, although blackened
by the fire, representing the only
survival from the wreck. The walls
and ceiling of the store have been
charred through by the flames, but
otherwise no great damage seems to
have been done the building which is
built of brick with wooden partitions.
Chu Kee's loss amounts to about
$500 which is covered by a $2000 insurance
policy. Some goods in the store which
is next to Chu Kee's, in the same
building were also damaged by water,
but as they are fully insured the owner
suffers no loss.
