THE FIRE RECORD.

Fire in a PenitenIiary-Very Heavy
 Loss
 NEW YORK, Jan. 26.-The shoe shop of the Kings county penitentiary, Brooklyn, took fire this morning and caused great excitement among the prisoners as well as the keepers, the latter fearing that an attempt would be made by the prisoners to escape. Upon the discovery of the fire the prisoners were or dered to quit work and fall into line, even while all the machinery was in full operation; for the engineer, who was in the lower part of the building, was ignorant that the place was on fire. The shoe shop was isolated from the penitentiary, it being 500 feet north of it, but was surrounded by high stone walls. The prisoners were marched back from the shop to the prison. Some of the short term pris oners were detailed to aid some of the keep CTS in extinguishing the fire. The flames spread SO rapidly that the keepers found their efforts to check them useless, and so they turned their attention to saving some of the stock. By the time the flames were sweeping through the shop the prisoners had been safely lodged in their cells in the main building. There were 425 prisoners and 300 outside hands in the building, including 15O women. The Bay State Shoe Company had $25O, 900 worth of machinery and mate rial in the building, nearly all of which was destroyed. The upper story and roof were burned of. It is thought the building was constructed with so much wood work about it that the flames found plenty of fuel. The building, which was three stories high, was entirely consumed; and, notwithstanding the efforts of the fremen to save it, bare walls are only left. It was erected ten years ago, and cost the county about $1OO,o 900. The building was not insured. The Bay State Shoe and T,aofhar Gnnnnpnv had n farO6 stock hand, and estimate their loss at $200, ,00O. About 200 females were employed from out side, and are thrown out of employment. Charles H. Bixley. of the fire truck, was in- jured by falling timbers. Among the insur- ance of the Bay State Shoe and Leather Con- pany were the following: On stock and ma chinery. in the Meriden. of Meriden, $2, 300; Hartford, of Hartford, $2, 800; in the Wash ipgton, of Providence, $2, 800; Phoenix, of Hartford, $2, 800; Security, of New Hamp- shire, 2,5oO; National, of Massachusetts, $2, 800; New York and Boston, $1 ,500.
