COTTON FIRE AT BALTIMORE.
BALTIMORE, Jan. "A fire broke out tonight
in the four story warehouse Of Thurston Har-
rison, Buchanan's wharf, containing several
thousand bales of cotton, and it is at this
hour, 1890 P. n. burning fiercely. The entire
department has been called out, but owing to
the location of the warehouse on the wharf be-
tween two docks and bounded by very narrow
streets, not more than four or five engines can
work effectively upon the fire. 1t is probable,
however, that it will be confined to the ware
house. Several daring fremen who ventared
in the building were overcome by suffocation,
but were rescued and borne out.
At midnight the fire on Buchanans wharf is
still burning fercely. Shortly after IL o'clock
the walls fell. The steam tug Convoy, of the
Baltimore g. Ohio railroad was brought into
the dock and turned effective streams on the
fire. The damage will exceed 100000, the
greater part of which insured, but it is impos-
sible to night to get accurate insurance.
