acre. No sach FIRE had ever before been
witnessed IN Jersey CITY. Resides the
engineer, Mccarthy, Of the fire depart
ment, who met his death frorn falling
wall and fire, Charles Neagie.s, stoiser Of
the same engine, was also crushed, but
escaped with broken leg. One man, a
nachinist, entered the buildings nearth
commencement Of the fire, for tools. It
Is feared he perished. The fire lasted
two hours. It Is estimated that the de-
strOyed property amounts to three
million five hundred thousand dollars.
All the property, except the tools, was
insured. A significant fact connected
with the fire is, that at the last strike all
the Jersey City men We're notified that
they would not again be employed
This threat was carried out, and the en-
ployes were from New York and Pater-
son. The flames Illuminated the ship
ping in the river, and extended to the
New York side for a great distance
The scene was one of excitement and
bewildarment, the mechanics and their
wives rushing TO and fro, giving express
sion to regrets for the loss of their tools
and prospective idleness. The entire
premises covered five or six acres. Up
ward of eleven hundred workmen have
been employed. There is no instance on
record of a destruction so sudden and
complete. The machinery can only be
sold for old irOn. e- 485l4
