FIRE RECORD.


HARRISBURG, Pa. July 2.
Fire broke out at Dauphin county aims
house, two miles from here, this afternoon,
and destroyed every building on the grounds
except the laundry and school house. The
fire was the most destructive that ever WIS.,
tied this neighborhood. 1t was first discov-
cred in large frame stable, located near the
main structure. The stable was consumed,
together with the contents. including two
horses and five mules. The heated slate on
the main structure set fire to that building.
and as there was very high wind at the
time the building was soon destroyed. As
soon a. the dwelling caught the steward and
his assistants rushed to the insane depart
ment and forced the excited inmates, Fl
females and II male, from their quarters.
All were saved though some fought desperate
ly. The fire is supposed to have been caused
by heated hay just placed in the barn, but
there is a rumor that it was accidentally set
on FIRE by one of the EMPLOYEES from pipe
or cigar. Loss about $500, 900; insurance
S30, OOO. One of the insane patients was
severely burned. The insane were this even
ing removed to the State asylum above the
city and the sick were brought to the Hos
pital here. Tents were procured at the
arsenal and will be erected near the ruins for
the paupers.
Shortly after the insane inmates were
gathered up by outsiders and taken to the
State asylum it was discovered that II Of
them were missing, having fed. Two of
them are very violent. Up to nine O'Clock
none had been apprehended.
