FIRE IN A MATCH FACTORY.

At $50 last evening fire broke out on
the fifth floor of the seven-story building
at No. 214 North Fourth street, Pbiadel-
pbia, which is owned by the Swift and
Courtney and Beecher Company, and oc.
cupied by them in the manufacture OF
parlor and sulphur matches.
The loss will probably reach $45, 900.
Most of this is represented by mAnufac-
tured stock, of which there was between
$4,000 and $4,000 worth in the build
ing. Only a small portion of this, how
ever, was burned, but the rest was dam
aged by water to such an extent that Mr..
Daily, the manager of the mandatory,
thinks it entire worthless.
The machinery was probably damaged
at least S. 900, and the same amount, it
is thought, was lost on the building.
There was no insurance whatever on any
of the property destroyed.
