op1crv PROGRESS or THE FIRE.

The fire Originated in the end OF the
pant-sEon, and, it is supposed. was caused
by spontaneous combustion. There was I
great deal of infiammablc material in the
she'd, such rs oil, waste, varnishcS, &c. !;
and the fire, Of course, spread very rapidly.
Etfolt Is were made TO get the key nf The
box, but tie right man couldn't be found,
anu so when the alarm was given, and the
ap1aratuS reached the ground, the roof OF
the shop was about to fall in. The fire now
assumed alarming proportions. The paint
shop was only one hundred yards south Of
tie main nlachlne-shops, and with a west
wind blowing at the time it looked as
though not only the shops would go, but
that the framed buildings on the other side
OF Seventeenth street would be swept by
the danes. From the paint-shop the fire
soon spread across TO the east side OF Seven
teeEib street, and, attacking dwelling No.
1891 first, went from roof to- roof in the di-
rect;en- or Broad street. The fire was very
difficult to manage. There was no water,
or yerv little, to be had, and the burning
lumber and shed made it so hot that the
men could do but little to stay its progress.
Indeed, Il line Of hose that had been rceled
or in the street had 10 be removed to save
Them from being burned, for they were al
ready SIN ollinS.
SCARCITY OF WATER.
1t is matter of surprise that the tire. uid
rot do q greater work OF destruction, for
there were only two plugs that could be
used Of all, and when one was opened the
other was rendered useless. The Flre Colli-
sma Ife ma hfyf u 3syse49X es sGat is we'll Eel as
the Insufficient water-Supply on the souti'
side OF the basin, but the Water Commit &c
have reported that the small appro priatlon
this wear renders il ineXpedient to lay down
larger pipes. \ disastrous fire will some
dav change their views.
OTHER FACTS.
At some OF the eng!nc-houscS the fire
had been discovered before the alarm was
turned in, and the men had their horses
hitched, and were ready to go out on the
tap OF tue gong.
The Chesapeake and Ohio sleeper. valued
at $4,000, was put into the palnt-shop Fri
day night, preparatory to being tltted up
for the heavy summer travel, which IS an
| ticipated. 49,,
Much of the lumber was valuable black
| walnut, and the loss upon it Is consequently
very heavy. 49,, .,
Yesterday as soon as hands could 20 4
work large gang Of men was put TO wofs
| to build substantial fence around inc 10
preparatory to rebuilding the paint-shop.

There was no insurance upon O'Kcefe's,
Gays, and Burkc's houses, or upon the
valuable lumber in the paint-shop yard.
