FIRE

PrrTsBuRGu, Oct. l3.-YcsterdaY afternoon
at . o'clock. fire broke out in the extensive
buildings OF Phelps, Carr & Co., couch and
wagon manufacturers, Manchester, two miles
below this city.
No fire companies in the town, and but few
facilities for checking the flames. Tho fire
spread rapidly, involving the destruction of the
whole block, including above Hall & Speers large
plough factory, andseverai dwellings and built
ings occupied by Phelps; Carr y Co., owned by
tirely destroyed. No insurance
, Phelps, Carr & Co.'S machinery and stodk,
valued at $4,000, insured in two Philadelphia
offices for $4,000.
A large amount of Hall & Speers' finished
work was saved, but the destruction of the ma
chinery, patterns and timhers involved consider
able loss Stock and buildings insured for $I4,-
00Oin the Lycoming Office. The total loss will
probably reach $75, 900.
About one hundred and fifty hands arc thrown
out of employment The fire was undoubtedly
the work of an inccndiary. Several attempts
were before made TO fire the building.
