LARoE FIRE IN SAN FRANCISCO

| -~---N'SASS"s
SAN Francisco, Aug. 9.-About o'clocl
last night fire broke out in a stable in tn,
block bounded by Drum, East, Merchant
and Washington streets, and swept ava,
the entire block to the city front, also thu
north half Of the block between Clay ant
Merchant streets, and the south half of the
block between Washington and Jackson
streets.
The area burned over was chiefly occup d
by frame buildings of small value, including
stables, shops, drinking salooDs, and sailor
boarding houses. The individual losses are
small, though numerous.
The destruction of large brick building
on the south side of Merchant street, occu.
pied by Heath, Gallup & Co., ship chand>
lers John Mallory, produce commission
merchant, and the sail lofts of Harding e.
Bren and G. c. Funk, entailed considerable
loss. Marshead g. McKune, proprietors of
the stable in which the fire originated, lose
about $2O, 900 of live stock, including thirty
head of horses.
The buildings at the ferry slip were in
imminent danger, but were saved BY seam>
tugs, which threw steam on them. The to-
al loss may amount to $3.50, 900, but 1t is
impossible to learn The details at present
owing to the great number of small busi-
nes concerns involved, and the loss NAV
prove to be much less than th at sum.
An immense crowd of persons gathered
st the scene OF the fire, but the police, aided
by members of the Committee of Safety.
were able to preserve order ard give the
iremen fall play. By II o'clock the fumes
we're under subsection.
