ALARMING FIRE, AND NARROW ESCAPE OF THE
INMATEs.—Yesterday morning, between the hours of five
and six, the oil and colour shop belonging to Mr. James
Clarke, situate at 90, Red Cross-street, Southwark, was
discovered to be on fire. An instant alarm was raised, and,
after some time, the inmates were aroused from their slum-
bers, but although the fire had not extended beyond the
shop, the smoke was so dense, and of such a suffocating
nature, that the residents, to effect a retreat, were obliged to
escape from one of the back windows. The firemen suc-
ceeded in getting the flames subdued. but not until the stock
in trade and fixtures were considerably damaged by fire, and
the furniture by removal.
