Extensive Fires.

The firemen of the Metropolitan Brigade were actively
engaged in attending fires in different parts of London.
One fire, attended with great loss of property, happened in
the premises of Mr. Edwin Yates, -picture-frame maker
No. 33, Goldsmith-row, Hackney-road. The outbreak it
appears was occasioned by an escape of gas, and in the
course of a few minutes the whole building pre-
sented a blaze. Conductor Eidson promptly attended
with the Royal Society's escape ; and the land steamers
by Shand, Mason, and Co., and manual power engines
followed, and a good; supply of water having been
procured, the firemen went to work in gallant style, but
they were unable to get the fire subdued until the building
and all it contained were destroyed. Fortunately the suf-
ferer was insured.
Another fire broke out in the promisee belonging to
Mr. Murray, 'No. 101, High-street, Shadwell, which, had
it not been for the prompt arrival of the lire brigade from
the adjacent station, several lives unquestionably must
have been sacrificed. As it was the brigade succeeded, by
the aid of their ladders, in bringing down in safety the
whole of the endangered persons. The Royal Society's
escapes were also soon in attendance, as well as numerous
land steam and manual power engines, and owing to an
abundant supply of the East London Company's water the
engines were set to work, but the shop and the contents
were destroyed before the fire could be extinguished. The
fire commenced at a quarter to three in the morning.
A fire also happened in the premises of Mr. Partridge,
a tea dealer, No. 156, Edgware-road, at which conductor
James attended with the Royal Society's escape, followed
by numerous engines, and fortunately the fire was con-
fined to the stables.
The other fires were of minor importance.
