sured only $4,000, less than half its cost.
A. 10 o'clock the FIRE is still raging-4O
houses burned"
We learn from Captain Roe, of the
DE Win Clinton, who left Albany last
evening, that the conhagration was some
what less disastrous than would be infer
red from the foregoing extract. The fire
broke out between FIVE and six o'clock, in
a stable in the rear of the Pearl street
House, kept by Mr.. Brown. From Rose
street, the buildings were burnt through
to Lydlus street, numbering about four
teen houses, several Of which were good
buildings. Some ten or twelve houses,
INCLUDING the Pearl street House, were
burnt upon Pearl street. The buildings
destroyed In Rose street were old, and of
moderate value. The church in Herki-
mer street, which was DESTROYED, took fire
from the sparks borne thithar by the wind.
It was built in 1897.
