The cleveland Fire.

CLEVELAND, Sept. 8.-The scene at last
nights confagration presents a desolstt
appearance. To-day the fire covered az
area extending from Scranton avenue, and
the Bee Line track on the east and west
and from the river to Girard street, north
and south, it embraces a triangle base
which rum from east to west l,1OO feet,
the two sides extending %southerly, and
nearly meeting at q distance OF l,3OC
feet. In less than an hour after the fire
stared, every engine in the city had been
called out to cope with the flames, and
half an hour later the Chief Engineer was
obliged to telegraph to n~eighboring cities
for aid. After starting, the flames ex-
tended west to the lumber yard Of Potter
& Birdssll, and east to G. G. King g. Co.'s,
extending from Scranton avenue to the
Bee Line, and from the river to Garter
street, eating up 5000, 900 feet of lumber,
~ cars on the Bee Line loaded with
merchandise and other incidentals, such
as office buildings, shanties and stables
Having swept away the square, the flames
leaped across the river on the north and
across the Bee Line embankment on
the west and ate their way into the rear of
Sherwin, Williams & Co.'s works and G.
A. Stanley's lard oil and candle factory on
the north, attacking Hubbell d Westover's
lumber yard on the west. Considerable
damage was done there, but the flames
were isolated. After a desperate fight
their progress was checked. Having de-
stroyed everything north of Garter street,
the fire made its way across the street,
going south and attacking the Variety
Iron Works, Eynon d Coz machine shop
house and Dsvidson's box factory and
placing mill. Woods, Perry & Co.'S plan
ing mill, and Howell, Coal & Co.'s coal
yard, wholly wiping u everything en-
braced between Carter and Bedford
and yaillard streets and Scranton
Avenue. Step by step the flames
were fought, but unsuccessfully. The fire
burned itself out in a s%outherly direction
and then stopped. The ruins are smoking
and smoldering yet, and the engines are
throwing water on them. Losses and in
surance are as follows, as nearly as can
