At noon a general, con flagration in; this part of the city seemed imminent.-" ' Property was re moved in the booses for several blocks in the direction the fire was taking. : Fortunately at 2:30 o'clock the wind changed driving the flames back on the burned portronwhTeh enabled the firemen to gain control and con fine the flames to three' blocks. En- gines came from Vanoouver, Oregon City, Salem, and Albany. ; The Wash ington and Emmett Guards were or dered to protect exposed property, ana to prevent tne crowa irom inter fering with the operations of the fire men. Several firemen were seriously injured by the falling walls of Carter s building, and one named Gallagher is supposed to be fatally hurt. The loss is estimated at -$360,000, on which there was $150,000 insurance. A $100,000 FIRE IN JERSEY CITY OTONDAY. NIGHT.- , ; The Illfh School Rnlldlng: Burned. v From the'. Snaof the .24th. The building is a compound of three structures, and in 'dimensions is 75x 150 feet, and, six stories in height. It is built in tho shape r oP the letter I. The front running along Bay street was a turreted structure, Burmounted by a Mansard roof, and adorned with an observatory in the centre, on the top of which was a gilded weather vane. - - An apartment in the southwest corner "of the rear building was used as a class room by the fourth or junior class of the night scholars.' This class was taught by Miss Ella Young, and the Scholars ranged in age from 8 to 12 years. ' Shortly after 8 o'clock the attention "of -the eacher was attracted to a little" girL named Moore, whose seat was near the beat ing apparatus, and who suddenly be gan to cry. Miss Young asked - her why she cried, but the little girl was speechless, and pointed to the wood work id the .rear of .her chair, around which .-.final forjts'of, flame were cir cling.; The teacher, hurried to the , room of Miss Eliaa Dunham, the prin cipal, 'and that lady, without alarming her class, coolly walked into the room where the Board of Education was in Bcssiop and whispered to Mn Thomas Potter, tha President of -the Board. ' The whole body .went ;' into the class rooms to quiet the scholars. "Those of the, fourth class, with the exception of the little one who had given- the alarm, had fled froni the room, which was in ablaze; She was paralyzed with terror, and was carried out of .tl .buUclinin the arms of he teacher.

'Last rjight, about 7 o'clock, our citizens were "startled for the third time within -the past three days by the alarm pf . firek and it was soon ascertained that the .flames -.were proceeding from one of the stores adjoining the Huggins building,' on the j corner , of Market and Second street The . fire, was first discovered Issuing from the wtndow of the store alluded to, occupied; by, Messrs. Douglas & , Capps, adjoining, and con nected, with the Huggins .building, and,;, the, .flames rapidly.j. communicated to the store of f Mr.(.; J. , B. ; Hug gins on the West and tire small . store occu pied as a Grocery, &c., by Messrs., Gillican & Canady on the East : hese j buiiimga, together with their contents, were all rapid ly consumed; the flames in the meantime communicating to the two wooden ; build ings occupied as Grocery stores' by Messrs. C. Hv Mohrand H. Finke, on Second street, and theresidence of Mrs. Lord on ; Market street, , which were ;alsp destroyed. ; At the latter point, though there was great difllcul ty in getting a sufficient supply of , water, the flames; were , prevented from . spread ing, :to.r the residence.; of Mr.liS,N. Martin, r which . it was thought - at;. , one' 'time, would certainly share the fate of Mrs." Lord's residence. . It . ; was here that . the Rankin boys, though , laboring under many and great disadvantages, nevertheless did good service. On Second street, the flames communicated from the stores of Messrs. Finke and Mohr to the fine residence of Mrs. Wm. H. Marks, which, including base ment, was four stories high and of. brick. Every exertion was made to save it, but without avail,' and the flames, ' which pene trated the windows, soon wrapped the whole building in a fiery mantle. . Through the energy and pluck of a number of the friends of the lady her furniture was nearly all saved and removed to : a place of security. - Here the- further progress of the flames were stayed in this direction; though it was the general impres- j sion for hours that the whole block would I be swept by the devouring element Very fortunately, we think it has never been our lot to witness the atmosphere so calm and serene during the progress of so destructive a fire as on this occasion.. It Is usual for the wind to rise; if it is not aheady blow ing, during the progress of a conflagration, .but last night there was apparently scarce ly scareely a breath of air during the entire time. Had it been otherwise, the conflagration would have been much more disastrous In its results and and our little city have suffered a loss, in all prptebOUjUchoaM haVe taken years j to repair. The fixe companies labored with their accustomed energy :and the Hook and Ladder Company did floble'service and to the combined efforts of the department much is due for the arrest of the .fire-fiend in its devastating course. Still 'we think, and it seemed the universal impression, that there was something wrong somewhere. But, as to this, we have spoken more fully elsewhere. 1 The losses and insurance so far as we could ascertain them under the disadvant ages which we labored, are as follows: . The .Huggins building, including the store occupied by Mr. J. B. Huggins and the two small stores occupied by Messrs. Capps & Douglas and Gillican & Canaday, was owned by the estate of John Brown and was insured for $2,000 with Messrs. Taylor & Giles and $2,000 with Messrs. Atkinson & Manning. . Mr. Huggins' 6tock, valued at about $2,500 or $3,000, was in sured with Messrs. Graeme & DeRossett for $1,500." The residence of Mrs. Lord was insured for $4,500 with Messrs. Graeme & DeRosset ; furniture mostly saved. The two Btores between the Huggins building and Mr&y Marks', occupied by Messrs. Finke and Mohr, were the property of Mrs. McDougald and were insured for $2,000 with Messrs. Taylor & GilesJ'Mrl Mohr had an insurance of $2,000 on his -' stock, with Messrs.. Taylor t &. Giles, and Mr.; Finke's stock was insured for $2,000 in the same Company;1' Mrs. Marks is the heaviest loser.. u Her dwelling was valued at from $8,000 to $10,000, upon which there was no insurance, the time for the renewal of the policy which she had been holding having as we learnr expired only a few days. ago. Her case is a peculiarly sad. one, she being an aged widow lady depending on her own' exertions for a support, and it is hoped that substantial assistance may be tendered her by our citizens. Mr. Huggins lost his safe containing all his books, papers and ac counts, including a number of orders for an amount not less than $200. These, however, being locked, up in the safe, may possibly be recovered uninjured though it is hardly like ly. The loss of Messrs, Gillican &, Cana- day and Douglas & Capps we could not as- certain, but we are confident tnat tne loss ox the firm last named was very slight, as they were butchers and their stock is known to have been nearly exhausted. Dr. J. II. Freeman, Dentist, occupied a room in the yppqr story of the building, a.nd must have sustained some loss from the burning of his instruments." S. N. Martin, Esq.; sustained considerable damage to his furniture by its. removal from the building under ( the im pression that it would share the fate of its ne!ghDors;'-i;';-'''i-:": '':f'.' -l : The firei originated, in the butcher shop of j Messrs.
