FIRE RECORD.

An Apartment House On Fire-The Loss
 That Might Have Been Averted.
 BOSTON, April 6-Fire broke out shortly after o'clock this afternoon in the base ment of the Hotel Berkeley. g six-story brick and freestone apartment house, corner of Boylton and Berkeley streets on the back bay, situated in the most aristocratic part of the city and filled with frst-class people. The flames were very soon discovered and the hotel fire apparatus was at once brought into use. The flames ran up the rear eleva- tor and spread with nghtning-like ra- pidity over the two upper stories, and when the alarm was sounded tongues of flame were shooting from all the windows on two sides. The department at once responded,s butowing to the extreme height of the building it was difficult to get the blaze under control and not until after an hour and a-half of vigorous fighting and the thorough flooding of the hotel were the flames subdued. The damage to the hotel is 15,Oo0 and to fixtures $1OO, ,OOo. The loss on valuable furniture divided among sixty occupants is estimated at $155, 900, mostly uninsured. There was an insurance of $2OO.OOO on the building and fixtures. The open condition of the rear el- evator rendered the house perfect fire trap. Had flooring on each story been placed over the open space during or since the building of the hotel at total cost of $500, the damage by the present fire would have been less than $1 900 instead of near $20O,-

Corporations to Pay State Taxes.
 NEW YORK, April 6.-Two decisions in yolving over $1 1000, ,000 have just been rem dered by the Court of Appeals in favor of this city and against nearly all the corpora tions doing business here. In 1880 the Leg islature imposed small tax on certain cor porations to be paid direct to the State comptroller. The corporations then claimed that the action freed them from all other Slate and local taxation. About eighty suits were begun against the city and two of them, which were made test cases, were taken to the Court of Appeals. That court has now
