Chief Magulre's detail of seven men
were again patrolling Bay, Bryan, Con-
gress and Broughton streets last night
TO report at headquarters the outbreak of
any fire in those localities. A watch was
also placed On the Big Duke tower, as
was done night before last. Chief Ma
guire thinks that by noon to-day the
entire fire alarm system win be again
in working order. No. l circuit, covering
the Yamacraw section, was restored to
working order at II o'clock yesterday
morning and No. circuit, covering the
Broug.hton street section, at o'clock
yesterday afternoon. Every possible pre-
caution was taken by the department to
guard against fire, and in it's crippled
condition, owing to the fallen wires, it
has been very successful in doing so.
A large chimney was blown from Mr..
w. Neyle Understands residence No. 16S
Harris street, and fell upon the glass roof
of the wine room, which occupies a wing
of the house lower than that upon which
the chimney had rested. The falling
bricks wrought destruction among the
bottles of fine wine among which they
struck, and the premises just around the
room ran with a mixture of rare old VIM
age and rainwater. Much very fine wine
was lost, though insurance was held up
on it.
