New York Oil Reporter. Fini at Triumph. Yesterday morning a 350 barrel tank, lull of oil, at tbe licGin nis well, was discovered to be on fire. It eoou began to pour out in dense volumes of smoke and flame, and it looked at one time ai if a very serious destruction of property way id take piste, as a number of wells are close together tbere. Had tbe tsnk bunted, the burning oil would have poured down In resistless fury on tbe wells and tanks ol Crossley, Knight & llcClin tock, Cook & Durkee, A. H. Bronsen, John Tonkin, jr., and others. All, for tbe time deemed the fire beyond control, until one brave fellow, we wish we bad bis name, mounted tbe tank,and then came the fight. Boards were thrown on, J blankets and Car pets on those, steam turned on from tbe j boiler, nod, strange as it may seem, tbe fire was subdued. Previously, the oil bad been turned on to tbe pipe, and Tidleute telegraphed.
