politan block, situated on the corner
Of Main and Markham streets. The
Gremen promptly responded to the
alarm and after hard and stubborn
fight, succeeded in confning the
flames to the locality where they orig
mated. The dry goods establishment
IT Messrs Quinn Bros. was seriously
damQged by water. At one time it
seemed Qs if the entire block would be
consumed, as the fire had spread to
the wood work of the fine building,
and the flames rose high in the air,
making scene terribly grand. The
upper stories are used as hotel rooms,
and are also occupied as offices of the
Pine Bluff railroad company. Messrs,
Quinn Bros, who are the. principal
losers. are fully insured.
