LOUISVILLE, July 16.-Three fires, oc-
curing within the space of an hour, and
involving a loss Of little less than one
hundred thousand dollars in property,
created intense exciteme ent in this city
Tuesday night. Fears were generally
entertained that 3 concerted attempt
had been made to cause a general
cOnfagration, but subsequent investi-
cations made to-day lead 10 the
belief that all threeswere the result of
unfortunate accidents. The first fire
broke out in the candy store of Conrad

buildings. Loss, thirteen thousand dol
lars; insured for about one-third the loss,
in local companies.

men, tired out with subduing two fires,
saved the Public Library, which was
uninjured.
The fire was undoubtedly the work of
an lncendiary. Every engine in the
city was at work when the last fire
broke out, and owing to the extent Of
the conttagratiOn and its proximity to
the public library, theater and other
large buildings, great excitement pre-
vailed.
