LETTER FROM NEW YORK..
Special Correspondence.


NEW YORK, March II. 1877.
On Thursday night fire broke out
in the large building on the corner of
Bond street and Broadway, owned and
occupied by Robbins & Appleton, agents
of the Waltham Watch Co., and by the
next morning it was level with the
ground. The completeness of its de-
struction was, queerly enough, the re-
suit of the thoroughness of its protec-
ton; the building being closed so firm
ly with bolts, bars and shutters that it
was almost as hard to get into as an
iron safe. The fremen were thus kept
out for so long time that when at last
their streams could be brought to bear,
the flames had acquired irresistible head
way. The building burned was regu-
lar Aladdin's palace, sort of mine of
gold, silver and precious stones, being
occupied from roof to cellar by ten firms
dealing in watches and jewelry. Over
forty iron safes full of these valuables
were exposed to the fiery furnace, and
many of them are yet too hot to be
opened to see what portion of the ST.
100000 which their contents represent
ed has got to be replaced by the insur-
ance companies. Robbins & Appleton
