a fire broke out in the building occupied by the
American Taper Company, located at No. so East
Eighth street. The mandatory is three stories high
and the upper part of it is used drying room, in
which several girls employed in the business of
drying and packing punches of tapers One of these
accidentally took fire and quickly communicated the
flames to the very combustible material which the
room contained, causing the greatest CONSERVATION
among the inmates of the building The girls, most
Of them, escaped through the window upon an ad-
joining roof; but one, named Rachael Bradford,
tainted and but for the exerions of Mr.. Charles Gill
man, would in all probability have died from suffoca-
tion. The fire was speedily extinguished. and tho
loss usual in this city, is much larger by water
than by fire. STILL believe it is entirely covered
by insurance, both upon the stock and building
