A BIG FIRE.
The Big Warehouse Of the Merchants
Wholesale Grocery Company De-
strOyed Friday Morning.

The Interior of the large brick
warehouse of the Merchants
Grocery Co., was discovered on
fire about daylight yesterday
morning. The building was clos
ed tight all round with sheet iron
doors and windows and the fire
bad evidently been burning a long
time and had spread all over the
inside before it was discovered, as
the first persons on the scene
found it a seething mass of smoke
and fame.
