TII CITY.
EITErIVE CONFLAGRATION.
TOTAL DESTRUCTION OF EXTENSIVE
MANUFACTORIES.
PITIFUL DESOLATION DROUGHT
TO MANY FAMILIES.
'CHUNG'S OF THE EPIPHANY HAMMOND.
HEARTLESS CONDUCT OE RASOKL-3
Again has our city been visited with a very
destructive conflagration, that was fearful to
behold ; and while it destroyed a vast amount
of property, it seems, as - by a miracle, that no
lives were lost. Shortly before four o'clock
yesterday morning tire was discovered issue
ing from the extensive moulding and turning
establishment known as Ester's Mills, situated
in the Ninth ward. There were four build
ings, occupied by the Messrs. Ester & Brothers,
located as follows : The main building, Nos.
14 and 26, fronts on the west side of South Fif
teenth street, and is two stories in height.
At the rear of this is a three-story building,
extending westwa rd toe small alley. Adjoin
ing this was a four-story building, running
South to Meloy street. Thus, these three build
lugs would be in the form of a letter L. The
other building we shall speak of hereafter.
The Messrs. Ester have, during the war, been
largely engaged in making tent poles and
ridges, but the necessity for these being over,
they have been making preparations to resume
*noir former business of turning, jiff-sawing,
end manufacturing mouldings. With this
view they have laid in an immense amount of
Mock, thirty thousand feet of lumber having
been received withing the past ten days. They
Occupied all of floc lower floors of the build
lags and the entire building on Fifteenth
street. A large anaount of costly tools, machi
nery, such as engines, boilers, etc., were ne
eessary to the prosecution of the business con
ducted on so extensive a scale.
MeSsrs. Milligan & Smith, manufacturers of
door and window-sash and blinds, occupied
the upper portion of the buildings, and they,
too, bad large quantities of material on hand.
The building being doubly stored, as it were,
Vint Buell inlialunnibla material, was 80011 Wm.
01Aet of flames, and the heat unbeare.ble. The
'whole of the three buildings, with their con
tents, were in a short period of time reduced
to ashes. The loss of the Messrs. Ester & Bros.
is estimated at $;0„000, and is partially insured
in the New York and New England offices.
The loss of Messrs. Mulligan & Smith is esti-
Inated at ss,oce, upon which they have an in
soraue,e 0f 452,000 la the Royal Insurance Com
pany.
The dames nest communicated with build
ing No. 22, on the north, occupied by William
_Brown, as an upholstery establishment and
dwelling, and owned by the lifeMurtrie estate.
It is of brick, two-and-a-half stories high, and
the flames quickly destroyed the rear and up
-per portion of the bnilding. Mr. Brown was
sleeping in the second-story front room, with
his wife and four children, and when awaken
ed the flames were coming in the back win
dow. He bad barely time to get his family
out, his wife being in a delicate situation, and
requiring care in removal. No sooner had he
got safely out than some friend entered the
building and stole a box from the bureau, in
which was seven hundred and ten dollars, the
savings of a hard-Waking and industrious
mechanic, as Mr. Brown is known to be by
all who are acquainted with him. All of his
.stock was flooded with water and totally
ruined. His loss is 82,500, upon which there is
not a dollar of insurance, and thus be andhis
family were turned into the, street homeless
and penniless, without a moment's warning.
'The wretch who stole tile money from the
house dropped three or four five-dollar bills
on the steps in his hasty egress. Francis
Blackburn, Esq., with unaffected generosity,
opened the doors of his mansion to Mr. Brown
tnd family, and there the almost distracted
party were hospitably entertainpd, every com
fort being rendered them that true nobility of
character could suggest.
In the attic of this building Mr. Wm. Day
had a lamp-shade manufactory, which was en
tirely destroyed, and he, too, is among the un
fortunate class, for he loses five hundred dol
lars, upon which there is not a dollar Of insu
rance.
In the second story, back of this building,
William Oliver, a soldier, has a room, but he
and his wife arc in New York. There is not a
vestige left of either his furniture or °Jailing.
While the above sad scenes were being en
acted, the flames had communicated south of
the mill to No. 28 Fifteenth street, corner of
Meloy. Mr. John Esler occupied the building
as a residence, but he was in the eountry, a.
relative being in charge of it. All of the upper
and rear portions of this building were de
strayed. in consequence of the absence of
Mr. Esler, the loss could not be definitely as
certained, but it is known he has some insu
rance upon the premises.
The office of Messrs. Esler & Brother is situ
ated in the rear of the above building, be
tween it and the Meloy front of the mill. It
was totally destroyed, but is partially covered
by insurance. Some of the books of the esta
blishment were saved however.
o,n Ripley street, in the rear of the mill, a
two-and-a-half story frame building, occupied
by Harriet Logue, was destroyed. A number
.of three-story brick buildings were situated in .
alleys, at the rear end, and west of the mill,
the roofs of which were destroyed, and the oc
,cupants compelled to leave the promises.
Adam McMullin occupied the three-story
brick building at 1511 Meloy street. The roof
was destroyed and the house flooded with
water.
The house at 1513 was closed, the occupants
being out of the city. The roof was damaged,
and it is understood the building was insured
in the Fire Association.
The buildings Nos. le, 21, 23, and 25 Benton
street were slightly damaged, but are insured
in the Fire Association.
Our readers can see, by the bare perusal of
this article, the strenuous and almost super
human efforts required of the Fire Depart
ment, but they were equal to the emergency.
The splendid edifice, at the northwest corner
Of Fifteenth and Chestnut streets, the Church
of the Epiphany, required great exertions to
.save it, as it was on lire several times about
the roof and cornices. Of course, the furni
ture, such as carpets, cushions, ac., were
damaged by the water ; and now our readers
may judge of the intensity of the heat, from
the fact that the north gable end wall of the
church Cracked, and bulged out to such an ex
tent that it will have to he taken down. The
elegant mansion of Mr. Wm. Struthers, corner
efFifteenth and South Penn Square, the new
stores at the northeast corner of Fifteenth
and South Penn Square, recently erected by
the Fassitt estate, were all more or less dam
aged by'the heat.
The firemen checked the flames at the points
above described, and although they were fa
vored with a calm morning, there being hut
little air stirring, yet they deserve great
thanks for their masterly efforts. We wish we
could close this article at this point, for there
is certainly enough in it to make one disgust
ed with humanity, but, as true chroniclers of
events, we must continue.
A number of ruffians procured axes,
and
went to the elegant mansions on South Penn
Square, where they chopped down some of the
doors and rushed in. One fellow confronted a
lady as he entered one of these buildings, and
told her to hurry out with the whole family
The brave lady quietly ordered him to leave
the premises instantly, as she was not appre
hensive of danger, and the fellow slid off. The
pollee and citizens soon put a stop to these
proceedings.
The residence of Mr. Struthers was closed
and the police guarded it, deeming it liffneeee,
nary to be opened. They thought it was all
Secure, but when the lire was out it was disco
vered that some fellow had taken a fire ladder
and placed it in the yard of the house adjoin
ing, thus effecting an entrance to the bath
leom of Mr. Struthers. In passing from here
to the adjacent room, he broke the glass in the
door for the purpose of unfastening the bolt,
and must have Cut his band in doing so, as
blood was left upon the glass. lie reached the
front bed chamber and broke open a bureau,
in which was a miniature iron safe screwed to
the marble top of the bureau. lie succeeded
in getting this wrenched off, and secured the
safe, containing one hundred dollars in gold, a
gold watch, and some articles of jewelry
which are highly prized as having belonged to
.a deceased relative.
The entire extent of the loss by this confla
.gration will probably not exceed more than
,$35,000. Fire Marshal Blackburn is actively en
gaged in ascertaining the origin of the Bre,
:but is not yet prepared to express an opinion.
HOMICIDE.—We learn that Mr. Thomas
'Shriner, of - Philadelphia, was stabbed at At.
lantic City on Monday evening, from the
effects of which he died ln a short time. The
weapon entered his left breast, near his heart.
"Mr. S. was superintending repairs to a hotel,
and had discharged one of the workmen be
cause of personal difficulty. Il is alleged that
the worhman waylaid him as he was walking
a l ong an avenue in the dark. The wound ap
peared to have been made by a carpenter's
-compass, the shape of it being somewhat tri,
.angular. The body of the deceased, accom
_panted by the Vfe, arrived in this city yester
.day morning. Mt the last accounts, it was not
'known whether the assailant was arrested or
not. BIS escape, however, from Jersey justice
is not probable.
T UTED STATES MONADNOCK. Th e
double-turreted monitor' Monadnock," built
at New . York, is in the Delaware, near the Jer
sey shore, opposite the Navy Yard. As an_
other evidence :of the skill of Philadelphia
mechanics over all others, a hurricane deck is
about to be constructed on this mammoth

"1. RAMP, TRAMP, TRAMP, Tflll
ARM MAncninctii—Homeward bound the gal
lent sons of Kars are marching, with torn ban
ners of victory streaming in the dusty air.
They come as victors and depart as patriots
and good citizens. Their demeanor generally
is such as to elicit admiration. JoyOus with
song,:and with veteran hearts beating with
that ragiture induced by guniights of nearing
nome, the victork Of, mii4y:pattle-delds, conic
among us and so depart.
The following regiments have arrived and
departed since our last report :
The 9th New Jersey, 7i7 men and officers,
equally divided between the Cooper-Shop and
Union Saloons.
7.61 th New York, 219 men. and , omeers; fed at
the Cooper -shop.
69th New York Artillery,2oernen and officers;
fed at the Cooper -Shop.,
170th New York, 180 officers and men; fed at
the Union.
155th New York, 131 officers and men; fed at
the Union.
7th Regiment, Hancock's 151 Army Corps ;
right wing fed at the Cooper-Shop ; the left
wing at the Union. This regiment numbers
714 veterans and 14 officers, and had with it an
efficient band, that discoursed eloquent and
patriotic airs. The regiment is ordered to do
garrison duty at Philadelphia. It is unques
tionably onaof the most effective military or
ganizations in the country.
20th Maine, 744 men and officers; the right
wing fed at the Union ; the left at the Cooper.
Shop.
20th Massachusetts, 387 men and officers, the
right wing fed at the Cooper-Shop and the left
at the Union. Thus it will be seen that the
soldiers are . equally divided between the two
saloons, and that a report industriously circu
lated' that two-thirds of them are fed at one
saloon and only one-third . at the other is er
roneous.
The 95th rennsylvania, 570 men and 27 offi
cers, were to ha - ve started from Washington
at 9 o'clock yesterdaymorning morning; bump to nine
o'clock last CVening, the regiment had not yet
reached Baltimore. This regiment will be the
especial guests of the Cooper-Shop Commit.
tee. It may be expected to arrive this
morning. As spurious reports are afloat
relative to this regiment, a brief, though
correct account 'will prove acceptable. The
regiment went into service on October 12th,
1861, under command of Colonel John M.
Gosline, who was killed at the battle of
Gainesville, October 2.1 d, 1862. Major Wm. B.
Hubbs was also killed in this battle. At the
battle of Cliancellorsville, May 3d, 1863, after
storming the heights of St. Marie, Col. Gus
tavus V. Town, Lieut. Col. E. Hall, and Adju
tant E. D. Dunton were killed; Major Thomas
T. Town was wounded; Lieut. Col. E. Carroll
was killed on Maylst, 1864, at the battle of the •
Wilderness, first day's
The following are the names of the present
field and staff officers:
Colonel—John Harper.
Lieutenant Colon el—John A. Ward
Major—William Macdonald.
Burgeon—C. C. MeGlonglilin.
Adjutant—lL Ti', Hindniwrsh,
Quartermaster—Manion Wilson.
Assistant Surgeon—Jefferson Litz
The regiment was in all the battles of the
Army of the Potomac, from McClellan's ad
vance on Manassas to the last battle fought
under the hero General U. S. Grant. gn the
9th of July, 1864, the regiment was ordered
from the fortifications at Petersburg to Wash..
ington, to protect that city against the rebel
raid. The regiment was also in the valley
campai. ' m under Cavalry Sheridan, and assist
ed in waking up " Earley in the morning. ,, After
the American victory in the valley, the regi
ment was ordered to rejoin the Army of the
Potomac, which was accomplished on Novem
ber 80th or December Ist, 1864. Soon after this,
tile 99th took part in the battle at Hatcher's
Run, where the "Johnnies " were whipped.
The last fight in which it was engaged was at
Sailor's Creek. After the surrender of the re
bel Lee, the regiment was ordered to Danville,
one hundred and ten miles distant, which was
accomplished in four days and four hours,
this being the greatest march on record.
After the surrender of Johnson, the regi
ment guarded the, railroad from Burkesville
to Petersburg. We may say that very few
of the original members of the glorious regi
ment are left. It has been Continously re
cruited, so that its numbers were kept pretty
full. The veterans of the 96th Regiment were
consolidated with it on October 18th, 1864, and
these representatives of another brave and
gallant military organization shared the for
tunes andmisfortnnes of war since that period.
It seems to be a pet regiment in Phila.delphia.
Quite a number of fathers, mothers, and sisters
of brave fellows who compose it were at the
Cooper Shop last evening, anxiously awaiting
its return.

come from the inside of the fence, pick up a
coat and put it on, and walk leisurely away ;

man down was inside the fence on Columbia
lawn; think the prisoner is the man, but he

and remained there; there were no words
spoken ; saw Wilson holding his hand over his

The jury brought in a verdict of death from
blows inflicted by Charles Wilson and James
Wilbanks, colored men, in the employ of
Thomas Barrett. They were remanded to jail
for trial, which will come off during the first
or second week of September.

THE COUNEERBRIT POST.kr. CURRENCY.
We have 'frequently noticed the sufferings
of. poor, persons by having counterfeit fifty
cent 'notes passed upon them, and are glad
that one; at least, of the manufacturers of them
has been arrested. The New York officers
claim, and are entitled to this arrest, and we
hope the 'United States officers in this city will
use their exertions to bring more of these par
ties to justice. It is heart-rending to see poor
women tender their mite in market for_pro
duce and arc told that the note is bad. Poor
children are suffering at home, and the un
happy mother must meet them with an empty
basket because some vile fellow has made this
spurious stliff. The New York of arrested
Jerry Cowden, said to be a notorionsmanufae
turer of these notes. The notes executed by
him are so well printed that the most expe
rienced have been deceived by them.
WARM)), A DRINK OF WATER.
Charles Livingstone entered a tavern in the
Nineteenth ward, yesterday, and requested
the female attendant to get a fresh pitcher of

Charles stole all the money out of the drawer,

sent to Moyamensing, where Superintendent
Perkins will let him have the free use of a

THE COURTS.
Quarter Sessions—Hon. Jos. Allison,
Associete Justice.
OAI:et:CTRS. ARNTANOND.
Richard H. 0. Reagan, convicted on Monday
of highway robbery, committed upon the per
son of James Lowry, was called up yesterday
for sentence. Judge Allison said lie regretted
to have to say that the crime of highway rob
bery was on the increase. The experience of
this term shows that fact. The community
must be protected from the depredations of
these people, and to that end punishment, in
cases of conviction, must be severe. He had
recently, in a case of highway robbery, sen
tenced the offender to an imprisonment of ten
years, the extent allowed by law; and he had
noticed that a few days since a man for high
way robbery had been sentenced for twenty
years. In this ease it was his purpose to im
pose a punishment which though not the
severest that he could indict, would still, he
trusted, prove a warning and an example to
others. Reagan was then sentenced by the
Judge to pay a fine of one hundred dollars
and to undergo an imprisonment in solitary
confinement at labor for eight years.
ACQIT/TTSD
James A. Moss, a paper-hanger, was charged
by James C. Finn, a paper dealer, with the
larceny of four "medallions," Or pieces of
paper. Mr. F. testified that he permitted Mr.
Moss to take this property away from the
store, to exhibit as a sample, with the under
standing that it was to be returned on that or
the following day ; it was not so returned, and
Mr. Finn, after sending several times to Mr.
Moss for it, and failing to obtain it, instituted
this prosecution.
Mr. Moss, in defence, denied all intent to
commit a larceny, and called several paper
dealers to show that it was a common custom
of the trade to allow paper-hangers to take
similar goods from the store ; if used by the
paper-hanger, they were charged on the books
as sold ;if not used, they were returned. The
property was used by Mr. M., who intended
then, since, and now, to pay for it, as soon as
the stigma of a chayge . oflarceny was removed
by the,yerdict of a jury. The jury rendered a
verdict of not guilty, and NO,
.the amount of
the value of the paper, was paid to Mr. Finn
in open court.
Jurors Were then discharged from further
attendance, and the court adjourned till this
morning. -
• GREENBACKS A CURE FOR WOUNDED HONOR.—
The flartford (Conn.) Times hears stories of a
curious case of alleged crim. con., in which the
injured husband—a returned soldier and
officer—has, after obtaining a full confes
sion from his wife, attached all the pro
perty of the offender, with a view to
squeeze him between the upper and nether
millstones of the law, in a snit for $lO,OOO
