Local Intelligence,
tlREs.-At quarter to twelve O'Clock
saturday night fire broke out in the rear O,
one-story ktchen attached to fhs house
NO. 34o PhlLp street. The alarm was in
medlately given by the officer on Che bea,
ana the hre department were speedily al
hand, but the scarcity OF water prevented
them from etfectually struggling with the
names. The house in which the fire origin.
ated, occupied by Mrs. Glude, was soon
consumed and the fire spread rapidly. No.
80 Pnihp street, aeone story cottage, and
NO. 35o, two-story frame building soon
succumbed. The grocery of Mr. J Shaut
no. ]5i Philip street Went next. By this
time the cisterns, ON which the tiremen
were forced TO rely entirelye were exhaust
ed, but the tugboat Tyler managed to force
some water from the head OF Firse street,
which gave their exertionS nav impetus
no. obo CarOndelet street, occupied by Mrs.
Igotand, was next attacked, ard stiff
breeze blowing the flames quickly enveIoped
the houses No 800 Carondelet. owned and
occupied by Mr.. r. b. Boutchero No. SCI,
owned by Mrs. Lengsfeld, No. 81, occupied
by Mr.. Porkaschey and 0wueS by Mrs
Soarah Jane Riley, and No. 5!3 occupied by
Colonel james Tucker and owned BY MI.
Foley. ALI these houses were entirely con
Sumed. We do not know what insurance.
If any, was held by the owners, except in
the cases of Mr.. Boutcher and Mrs. Sarah J.
Riley, who were each insured in the Me
chanics and Traders Insurance Company
aor $4,000.
The tug boat Tyler, which had been rem
dering good service under disadvantages
now broke down, and detail of several
engines was made to force water up to the
scene of action. The gallant boys worked
with will, adding to dauntless energy all
their skill and experience. 1t was. some
time, however, before they could get the
lire tend under control, working at auch
disadvantage.
On First street, Nos. 2Ss, 2sa. 29l, and
293, which last was owned and occupied by
DIR. Ross, were all burned down. On Ba-
rome street was a row of seven tenement
and all destroyed by the fire. Mr.. Siute is
insured in the New Orleans Mutual Insur-
once Association for $4,000.
After inhicting a damage of from SIS. 000
TO $4,000, the fire was subdued by our able
fire department.
1t is crying shame that our water facili-
gies are SO poor as they are, and We think it
can with truth be said that it is entirel,
owing to the efficiency of our fire depart
ment that the greater portion OF Che Fourth
was not laid in ashes. With = suthciency
of water readily at hand, Gus engine boys
Would have confined tina. Sre to Che house
ka which 1t originated.
