sent Lieut.. Pasquin and thirty men
detailed from the two gunboats. The

were killed and six badly injured at a
stubborn fire to-day at the chemical
warehouse of Gilmour & Co. The
dead are Edmund LaPorte, Harry
King and Silvan Charpentier The
latters body is still buried under the
tons Of debris. Of the injured the
only one likely to die is Castian Ben
nett. The fire ragged with great fury
owing to the combustible nature of
the contents. The fremen fought the
fire courageously, and after an hours
work seemed to have had it under con-
troll. At this stage the firemen were
distributed in all parts Of the building
and We're drowning out the flames
when with a terrible crash the second
floor gave way and fell to the floor
beneath. The men who were on top
escaped half-suffocated and bleeding
from many wounds, but the men below
were crushed under tons of timbers
and goods. The loss to property is in
the vicinity of 100000; insurance
about half.
