DESTRUCTIVE CONFLAGnATION ON eIIESTNOT
STREET—EXTENSIVE Loss.—Yesterday morning,
a few minutes after three o'clock, flames were die
covered bursting from the roar portion of the per
fumery and fanoy-goods establishment of T. 11.
Peters A Co., No. 716 Chestnut street, opposite the
Masonic Hall. The front of the main building is
of brown stone, and four stories in height. Tho
first floor extended back to Bennett (late Morris)
street, a distance of ono hundred and fifty feet.
The centre of the first floor was lighted by means
of a skylight and above this paint there were two
distinct buildings. The ono fronting on Chestnut
street we have already described. Tho other
building was at the rear, with its front upon Ben
nett street. It was of brick, six stories in height,
and it was used throughout by Messrs. Peters A
Co. for the manufacture of perfumery, fancy
soaps, and cooraelier Thu structure was filled
with very combustible property, and even the
wood-work of the building was rendered more
combustible by the oils, (to., used in the menu
factory.
The fire originated in tho manufactory, and by
the time it was discovered the flames had spread
through the first three stories. The flames wore
first discovered by the watchman in the State
Rouse steeple, who notified the operator on duty
at the Central Station that there wits a fire in the
vicinity of Chestnut and Ninth streets, such being
the locality as aeon from the steeple. The fire
alarm boxes and the bell were rung for Market
and Ninth streets, the nearest box to the supposed
lootility of the fire. The alarm should have been
for Eighth and Walnut, and the firemen were a
little disconcerted. The error was occasioned by
an optical delusion on the part of the watchman,
and not by the inefficiency of the box at Eighth
and Walnut streets, as stated in the evening
papers
Boon after the discovery of the thrum; they had
extended entirely through the six-storied manu
factory on the roar, and before the firemen and
polio had time to save anything of importance
from the store of Messrs. Peters A Co., the fire
poured through it, driving the men out, and caus
leg a body of flame to lick along the front of the
building from top to bottom. Nine or ten steam
fire engines were got Into operation as sinfodily as
possible, and torrents of water were poured Into
the building, but the roaring flames continued to
rage until very little thet was combustible was
left in either the front or bask building. The lat
ter was completely gutted, no wood being left un
consumed except some charred joists. The wood
work in the front building was destroyed, though
not entirely consumed, and very few of the goods
in the structure escaped ruin. Messrs. Peters es
timate their loss at from $50,000 to $6,000, which
is fully covered by insurance in all the prominent
companies in the city.
The second story was occupied by Robert J.
Park as a billiard-saloon. All his paraphernalia
was destroyed or rendered useless. MS loss is es
timated at $1,200, which is also fully insured. Mr.
Park has been very unfortunate Almost every
building in which he has been located has been
destroyed by 6re, and this is the fourth time 129
has met with such a misfortune.
In the tbirdstory an apartment was partitioned
off and occupied by William F. Jones, a painter.
Some of his pictures were carried out safely, but
others were spoiled by both fire and water. Tho
loss of Mr. Jones was not ascertained.
Mr. Edward Christman had some furniture tem
porarily stored In the fourth story. This was all
destroyed. The Wee is estimated at $1,200. No
insurance. In the front part of this floor Messrs.
Peters & Co. had some goods which were not
reached by the flames.
Both the store and manufactory wore owned by
Mr. Joseph Napp. They were valued at from
815,000 to $20.000, but are damaged to the extent
of about $12,000. The property is fully insured.
No 713, adjoining on the west, were the eaten
sive warerooms of Messrs. Warner, Minicoy, k
Merrill, manufaoturere of gas fixtures, Am. Their
stock was somewhat damaged by water, butsl,ooo,
it is thought, will cover their loss. Mr. Warner
was early upon the ground, and prohibited the
removal of many of the chandeliers, which fact
prevented Fortune loss, inasmuch as many of the
costly articles would have boon considerably da
maged in being taken out hastily. This building
is owned by BULLS Durand, but there was no damage
to it.
No. 714, adjoining on the east, was occupied in
the basement and first floor by E. W. Darryl Sr,
Co., dealers in household furnishing goods. The
most of the fine cutlery was removed from tho pro
mises, and the balance of the stock taken from tho
shelves, placed upon the counters, and covered
with water-proof cloths. The loss was very trifling,
and business will be resumed as soon as the store
can bo put in order.
The remaining portions of the building wore oc
cupied by Charles De Silver, bookseller. His stook
suffered considerably.
The police arrangements were of a complete and
decisive character, and assisted materially the fire
men in their arduous labors. Some eight or ten
steam engines were upon the ground, and in ope
ration all the time the fire was burning, seine three
hours. Their sucoessf.l woad.% alone iirevonted
the spread of the flames, and a
trous conflagration. They werelocated all around
the neighborhood, and a sufficient number managed
the burning structures, the others turned their
attention to the protection of the surrounding pro
rt always careful
l
after nine o'clock yesterday morning, and after the
fire bud been entirely subdued, pumping tho water
out of the collars.
Fire Marshal Blackburn repaired to the spot of
the conflagration shortly after the tire broke out,
and entered upon the examination of the canoes.
The origin of the flames is unknown. They first
made their appearance in the third story of the
factory, inclose proximity to the flue; aro supposed
to have been smouldering for some time. In e ver y
room there was a stove, with pipes connectin with
this flue. There was also a boiler in the collar of
the building.
The total loss by the conflagration, when folly
appraised, wilt doubtless reach $75,000, all of
Which, except about $2,000, is covered by in
