machine shop and hlacksmith's shop belong.
ing to the Illinois Central Railroad Company.
The machine shop was four story building
OF limestone with slate root, about one hun
dred feet by forty il SIC. The flames made
rapid headway, owing to the oil and grease
with which everything was covered, and the
interior Of the bu.i:.iu. was soon wrapped in
flames.
The shop contained four locomotives. that
were being repaired, and which are priced at
an average value Of 5000 each. and insured
at So, 0o0-about $1,000 worth of patterns
twenty-five latheS, valued at from $500 to
S20OO-a large quantity of drawings, books
belonging to the general office of the machine
department, as well as personal property be
longing to Mr.. HAYES. the master mechanic
OF the road and several copper tues, which
were q prey to the flames.
The flames soon spread to the biacksmith's
shop, building Ct ,out the same size and
material, and this to was soon consulned
with It's contents. comprising eighteen FORCES

large quantity OF tools.
At e O'Clock this morning. alter five hours
of intense heat. only the hlaehenrd walls Of
the three buildings, inclosins the skeletons
Of locomotives and heaps of ruined machine

WAS astir with the hum Of business. The
IRE is supposed to have originated from a
spark from the copper roam, which must
have lodged and smouldered for a long time
in the roo: until the fierce gale OF this morn

ire l1j men are throw. out of employ
