FIRE IN BROOKLYN.
Destruction of the Cuba Sugar Refinery
Loss $500. 600.

Destruction of the Cuba Sugar Refinery
Loss $500, 600.
The alarm Of fire in district No 90 was given at q
quarter before eight O'Clock last evening by the
Brooklyn City Hall bell. The fifemen lent prompt
response to the summons, and the light from the
burning pile, which proved to be a seven story
brick building at the foot of Gold street, attracted
crowds Of people from all directions to witness the
work Of destruction. The structure which was
known as the Cuba Sugar Refinery was occupied
or leased by Messrs. Wallace 4 Shoemaker, who
had on hand very valuable stock The flames
for a time threatened to destroy much valuable
property adjacent and the second alarm was given,
which brought out steam fire engines Nos. 6, Z, 5,
s, 10 and and trucks Nos. and 3. The fire
originated, it is believed by the employees, on the
fourth story OF the building, which was
used for bog washing. William Greer,
OF No. 800 Cherry street, New York, who
was on the third floor of the refinery, where he
found all the regular avenues OF escape closed
against him, jumped from the window, injuring
himself seriously II not fatally. He was carried to
the City Hospital. There were 500 barrels OF sugar
syrup, all Of which was consumed. Mr..
Henry steers, bOokkeeper, estimates the loss
sugar Mt 100000, and on machinery at Sl50,000.
The whole insured for about S2500OO. The
policies are held in the Star, Humboldt Phoenix and
other companies
The building which was owned by Charles A. Coe
OF New York. was entirely destroyed, involving loss
OF $50 000 fully insured. The Japanese war vessel
Bridge street, took fire from the sparks, which fell
in showers, but the vessel was not much damaged,
owing to the prompt eXertolS OF the firemen. The
police of the First Second and Fourth precincts
were on duty, and proved their efficiency in pre-
serving order and keeping back the surgng crowds
from about the burning building.
