It was in tho occupation of the Defence Department. The troops have not been in it since Friday, but the Department was retaining possession until to-morrow to accommodate for the night the men returning from the south. The only insurances are £SO on the school piano, and £SO on the library, both in the South British. The building stood on the high level, and though the fire brigade arrived in good time was hampered by lack of water.
