Special Dispatch to Pittsburgh Commercial
Great Fire i'm Philadelphia.
PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 8.

A terrible fire broke out in this city at
two clock this morning, equal in extent
and destruction to the great fire of 1850.
1t occurred at the corner of Ninth and
Washington streets, where Blackburn &
Co had three Thousand barrels of oil sto-
red on an adjoining lot. On another cor
ner was the coal yard of Bailey & Por-
ter. 1t was the most inclement night of
the season, and the fire department work
ed with every conceivable disadvantage.
Tn oil was a vast sheet of fame in ten
minutes, and the blaze that escaped from
it poured over into Ninth street and down
Ninth to Federal, igniting houses on both
sides for two squares on Ninth street,
and burning also tie houses ON Washing
ton, Worth and Federal streets, above
and below Ninth street. The scene was
frightful. Men, women and children
were burned alive in escaping from burn
ing dwellings,,
The oil was in bond to the United
States Ii was all refined oil which be-
longed to Richardson, Harley and Co.,
Dilworth & Ewing, and other parties les
es upon it about seventy thousand, while
it is fully covered by insurance. 1t Is be-
lievcd that the fire was the work of an
incendiary. Fire Marshal Blackburn
will give the matter a searching investi-
cation. The misery and poverty which
the fire will occasion cannot be estimated.
The persons whose houses weae burned
were mostly poor people, and there isnow
an active movementamongo our merchants
to extend relief to the sufferers.
The Coroncr's jury was summoned this
afternoon but will hold no meeting till to-
morrow They visited the Second Dis
strict Station house, old Southwark Hall,
where lay in "A heap the charred remains
of four human beings. 1t was utterly
impossible to Identify them so badly were
they burned. One appeared to be the
body of man, one child and the other
three adult females. The following are
missing: Mrs. Barbara Ware aged forty
three years, Annie Ware, aged 23 years,
Emma Ware. aged 20 years, Rebecca
Ware, aged l6 year, Helen Ware, aged
l3 years. Isabella Ware aged four years,
Albert Ware aged II, and Clayton Ware
aged ten years, were shockiugly burned,
but were rescued. They were thought to
be dying last evening -Four Of the char
red bodies at the second district station
were probably Mrs. Ware and three of
her daughters The other two daugh-
ters arc probably under some Of the ru-
in3
There is a strong feeling in the city
against the further allowance of the sto-
rage Of coal oil within the city limits, so
many fires having recently occurred thro'
its instrumcntality, and it is likely that
the City Council will take action on the
matter at an early day.
