The FIRE SATURDAY MoRNMa-Two PEE
SONS INJURED.-About nine o'clock, on Satur-
day morning last, the turpentine still OF
Messrs. NJ. Goldsmith & Co., located at the
Railroad Accommodation wharf, was accident
ally fred, and consumed.
The rosin ran into strainer which mmedi-
ately took fire. The fire spread rapidly to two
other stills, and in q short time the whole pro-
perty, despite the strenuous exerlions OF the
1remen, who were promptly on the ground,
was destroyed. 1t.was valued at about $4,000,
on which there was about s21OO insurance.
The heat from the flames, feeding as they
we're upon the most combustible Of materials,
was intense and prevented those working to
e1tinguish them or 20 save property, from
approaching very close. colored man,
named William Rose, who hal been working to
save the property, Was overpowered by the
heat and fell scnseless to the ground. 1t was
with great difficulty that he was removed out
Ut reach OF the flames.
Mr.. j. Goldsmith while at work also was
struck by apiece Of falling timber, and fell
uncons :ious, in which state he lay for two or
three minutes. On recovering he went to work
again and commenced rolling barrels OF tur-
pentine from the flames. While thus engaged
one barrel exploded, and the fire was immedi-
etely communicated to it's contents. The
clothes of Mr.. G.. took fire. He rushed up to
captain of an engine and begged him to turn
the water on him and put him out. Before the
captain could comply with the request, MIR. G.
found that the fire was getting too hot for him
to wait. and he jumped overheard, landing up
to his waist in mud and water. This method
had the desired effect. The fire was e1tin-
guished, and he was soon rescued from his
berth, very vet, but very little injured by the
fire.
The alarm OF fire was not sounded by the
bells until some minutes after the fire COM
menced, and after the dense smoke from it was
observed by persons in nearly al portions Of
the city.
The came still, ": learn, was burned three
years ago, then being owned by Messrs. A..
Robinson & Co.
