Five Tenement Houses on Harris
Street Badly Burned.
Three tenement houses on Harris street,
between Price and East Broad streets, were
gutted by fire early yesterday morning,
and two others were badly damaged. The
fire broke out a few minutes after
4 o'clock in the kitchen of the
tenement, No. 1S, on the north side
of the street close to the colored Odd Fell
lows hall, and occupied by Mrs. Nix. The
| tenement was wood, and the flames spread
rapidly. An alarm was turned in from
box No. 25 at the Savannah, Florida and
Western depot, but before the fremen ar
rived the fire had got such headway that
it was impossible to save the building.
The houses fronting Liberty street lane
were in danger, and the iremen went to
work to save them and the adjoining
property The fire had already communi-
Gated TO the house west of the one in which
it started, aud that was soon in flames. The
tiremen managed, however, by hard work,
to save the building from q total loss
Mrs. Nix escaped from her house through
window, but did not save any OF her fur
niture. The two houses east of that occu-
pied by Mrs. Nix were badly damaged, and
the next, which was flooded, was also
damaged considerably by smoke.
All VI lLo I6uSulello were OCCuDle1 DY
white people. The most of them managed to
save their furniture. The houses most dam
aged were in what is known as Cohen's Row.
and the one the least damaged is owned by
the Monahan estate. The total loss on the
buildings is estimated at $4,000, and is
pretty well covered by insurance. The loss
on furniture, etc., is estimated at $500.
Mrs. Nix, r. H. Conway and the Virgins
and Lavender families are the principal
losers, aud most of them carried insurance
which will fully cover tleir losses. The
fire was a hard one TO fight but the firemen
fought it well.
The firemen were called out twice after
they had finished working on the tenement
house fire, once at noon by the burning of a
small house in the rear of S. F. Spauldings
house, No. 1874 Jones street, and about l

clouds covered the heavens, it seemed, to

stripped of its hangings. The sun will not
shine on it.
