YESTERDAY AFTERNOON about four
o'clock the neighborhood of the corner
OF Water and Monroe streets was thrown
into a great state of excitement by the
discovery of dense clouds of smoke issu,
ing from the cellar of Booth, Battelle &
Cos boat store. A rush was made for the
cellar, and buckets of water were speedi-
ly drawn and started down stairs. When
the cellar was entered by number of
frantic people, it was ascertained that
the porter of the establishment had
placed pile of old rags on the floor and
set fire to it in order to clear the cellar
of flies. The excitement soon abated,
and at last accounts the cellar was en-
tirely clear of insects.
