GREAT FIRE AT SARAToGA.-Two very dis.
astrous fires occurred at Saratoga early Thurs
day morning, destroying the Park Place He
tel, Columbian Hotel and large part or The
Crescent Hotel. From the Grand Union OF
Broadway to the Clarendon, but two building:
are left standing; the northeast corner of the
Cres and Harvey P. Halls brick house
with few feet of the south end of the Colum
biau. Neatly whole block was swept away.
All the occupants of the several hotels ESCAPED
uGhurt, but the inmates of the Park Place ho-
tel, where the fire originated, lost most OF their
personal effects Some forty or fifty servants
lost all their proDerfy. The entire loss will
probably reach 100000.
There is suspicion that the fire was the
work of an incendiary, as almost simulta-
neously with the discovery of the flames in the
Park Place hotel, fire broke out just east OF
Broadway on Hamilton Alley in thick clus-
ter of wooden buildings, destroying one dwell
ling, half dozen barns and a tannery.
