CONFLAGRATION

This morning, at one O clock, a fearful
eonfa grafton occurred, destroying the
extensive Round House, machine shop
and blacksmith S shop belonging to the
Illinois Central Railroad Company, and
located on the lake shore, east of In
diana avenue, and short distance bove
Twelfth street, directly at the head of the
inner breakwater. >..tEs ...... H..
The fire was first discovered by a
messenger boy in the employ of the mas
ter mechanic, who slept in the machine
shop. He was awakenend by the smoke
pouring into his room, and found the
fire then burning in the copper room in
the south east corner Of the third story.
The boy attempted to escape by running
down stairs, but owing to the dense
smoke, was compelled to rush to the
windows, when he gave the alarm, and
ladder was speedily brought, by which
he descended safely to the ground. ra
The machine shop, was a four-story
building of limestone, with a slate roof,
about one hundred feet by forty in size,
built throughout in most compact man
ner and of the most solid materials; but
in spite of this, the flames made rapid
headway, owing to the oil and grease
with which everything was covered, the
whole interior of the building was
wrapped in flames. This shop contained
four locomotives, Nos. 6, 8, "a and 20,
which were being repaired, and which
are appraized tan average value ofSo, 900
each, and insured for $4,000; about
81, 800 worth of patterns; twenty Live
lathes, valued at from $500 to So, 900 each;
large quantity Of drawings, books be-
longing to the General Office of the
Machine Department, as well as consider
able personal property belonging to Mr..
Hays, the Master Mechanic of the road;
also several copper fues, all of which
were prey to the flames. ..,. .-. g..
The flames spread to the blacksmith S
shop, building of about the same size
and material, and this too was sooncon-
sumed with its contents, comprising eigh-
teen forges, stationary engine, water
tanks and large quantity of tools.
Despite the efforts of the fremen,
who worked at great inconvenience, as
they could not get the steamers to the
lake, the hydrats also being at a great
distaace from the fire. the Round House
circular building of stone with massive
wooden cupola, directly west of the ma
chine shop, took fire. The flames in a
short space of time enveloped the cupola
causing the heavy structure to fall in.
wards, spreading the fire to every part
of the building.
With this building the progress Of
the fire was stayed, and at six o'clock
this morning, after five hours of intense
heat, only the blackened walls of the
three buildings, enclosing the skeletons
of locomotives and heaps of ruined
machinery, remained standing, where
yesterday all was astir with the hum o:
business. The wooden building in close
proximity we're saved by the continued
exertions of the fremen keeping then
constantly wet.
The total loss is estimated at $50
900, which is fully covered by insurance
in the London Il Liverpool Insurance
Company.

Revolt in the Ohio Penitentiary Pre-
vented.

Revolt in the Ohio Penitentiary Pre-
vented.
Through an orderly. well disposed con-
vict, Warden Van Slyke learned last
week of contemplated revolt of the
prisoners in the Penitentiary, to culmi-
nate Saturday evening in the dining room,
while they-more than regiment of
hardened, reckless men-were assem-
bled for supper. The plan was gotten
up by convict named Blacburn, from
Gallia county, and at various times com
municated, until the whole thousand and
sixtv men were informed of the plot,
which was, to overpower and kill the
guards, when all were assembled in the
vast dining room, then force the large
gate at the southeast corner, kill the
guards on the walls, if necessary, and
when outside of the walls every man
take care of himself. The discovery of
the plot by the Warden, however frus-
trated the bloody design. and on Satur-
day evening, when each company of men
were told by their guards of the discov
ery, more chop-fallen looking set of
villains could not be imagined. Pre-
viously, however, the ring-leaders had
been taken from the shops and dungeoned,
where little restriction will probably
be exercised. There can be no doubt
but that wholesale slaughter, rapine and
plundering were prevented by timely
disclosure of the matured plans of the
desperadoes; for what volcanoe OF vice
and pent up passions is concentrated in
the hearts Of that regiment Of confined
villainy! Penitentiaries are dear luxu-
ries, fact that can be appreciated after
two or three attempts to revolt, when a
constant dread of something terrible
turks in the minds of citizens. The
sooner a new Penitentiary is built and
three or four hundred convicts moved
into it from this, the better for Columbus
and all parties concerned.-Stote jour
