W. Va, August About two O'Clock
this morning, fire broke out in the
stables belonging to the Springs Co., 10.
Gated some four hundred yards west of
the Main Hotel. There were at tie time
forty-siK horses in the stables. Forty
four of these-twenty of which belonged
to the Springs Co., and the remaining
twenty -four to.guests here-were burn
ed. The fire was accidental, and is sup
posed to have been the work of careless
mess on the part Of some Of the colored
servants. The building being an old
one, and as the design was 10 replace it
by new structure, it was uninsured.
No alarm was given and only few Of the
guests were aware Of the oonAagration
until this morning. The building being
full of com bustible material burned 80
rapidly that an opportunity to cut the
horses loose was not afforded. Among
the losers were Mr.. Corcoran, who had
three horses in the stables; Genera
Anderson and Colonel Darlington Of
Richmond.
