Destructive Fire In the North Division.
The alarm OF fire, at .halfpast twelve, Sun
day morning. was caused by the partial burning
OF the large factory Of tue well known trunk ma
kcr, John Garland, corner Of sedgwick street and
Chicago avenue. The factory was an immense
Ave story brick structure, with three story brick
eli reaching back to alley. In the rear Of this
cllwas located the boiler engine room, die-preaa,
and other machinery for preparing the iron.worl
for trunks, valises, &C. The fire was probably
k1ndlcd near the partition between the main
building and the ell; and the fncendlazy must
have prepared kindling for the purpose. as there
were no shavinga OF combustsble matcrials about
the building, except boards Which were
carefully piled up. We are assured by
Mr.. Garland aud by the hands,. that all
the ehayings and saw dust are carefully
removed from the entire building before dark
every afternoon, and the ceanly appearance Of The
floors throughout the building shows this to have
been the case on Saturday. As the building was
tightly closed, the fire had burned for some time
before it was discovered, md when the elar1r
WAS given, it had spread throughout the lower
portion Of the entire building. The steam
crs arrived promptly, but owing to the gzca
height and extent Of the building, could not stop
the fire untilit had destroyed the machinery ant
greatly damaged The etoe in the lowcr etories; tht
leather, trunks, &C., In the upper stories vert
