PuHADELPRIA. MAY 24.-The fire at The
Atlantic Oi-Works, which broke out about
1880 last night, spread during the night
and at $50 O'Clock this morning two addi.
tional alarms were sent to the department
The flames are still sweeping over the
works. About dozen storage tanks have
burst and considerable burning oil escaped.
Efforts are being made 10 run off the re.
mainder In the tanks. The PaTafine Works
consisting OF several brick buildings, have
been destroyed. They were located TO the
north OF the refinery. Although the wharf
properly and refinery, which are in close
proximity to the stills, are in danger, IL Is
thought that with the force OF men at work
they can be saved. Ii is impossible to esti-
mate the exact extent OF the loss, but IL is
over $780, o0. The last great fire at the
Atlantic Refining Company's works oc-
CURED five years ago.
All OF the oil property at Point Breeze is
considered in peril Application has been
made by William l.. Elkins. proprietor OF
the Belmont Oil-Works, which are located
between the Atlantic Company's property
and the Point Breeze Gas Works, to the
chief OF police to put the tug Stokley in SER
vice so as to aid the fire department from the
river front. This was done. Elkins has
also made application to General Hartranft.
commander OF this division Of the State
militia. to send detail OF the Keystone
battery to blow up the tanks of the Bel
mont works, and thus save the property
and prevent the fire from spreading to the
gas-works.
BY noon fourteen tanks OF oil were
ablaze and several more were in great dan
ger. The flames now spread over an area
OF five acres. and will very likely continue
to burn for some days. At the same time
the fire is considered under control-that
is, the firemen feel confident that they can
keep it confined to the oil now burning.
This was, however, said at O'Clock this
morning, and since then several explosions
have taken place. and change 10 the wind
may spread the flames to some unexpected
quarter. 1t is now said that the loss
will reach 100000. Several cannon
have been placed in readiness to use in
tapping the tanks and drawing off their
contents INTO the district already burned
over, in case the other tanks are endan-
gered. A change OF wind will greatly in
crease the loss and difficulty OF keeping
the fire within bounds.
There is no insurance in regular in
surance companies, but the oil company
carries a large fund for self-insurance.
