FIRES.
PErRoLErN CENrRE. Pa. June 3.

PETROLEUM CENTRE, Pa, June 3.
A most terrible FIRE occurred here this
morning, destroying property, in buildings and
goods, estimated at from forty to sixty thou
sand dollars. The FIRE originated in the Job
Taylor house, and is unquestionably the work
of an incendary. Twenty buildings
were consumed. among which was the United
States Hotel, the largest building in the
place. The largest individual losers are
William Spence, proprietor of the United
States Hotel. and J. and A. Baum, dry goods
dealers, who lost some ten thousand dollars.
The total amount of insurance, on the prop.
erty, will not exceed FIVE thousand dollars,
mostly small risks in different companies.
