rir I-1C C ITY. FIRE AT THE NAVY YARD. Narrow .Esenpe of the Ship iI.OIISCB. A STREAM OF LIQUID FIRE GREAT CONSTERNATION AMONG THE PEOPLE, , The upper part of .the storehouses isOhe north west corner of the , navy yard was ~destrbyed by tire: at an early hour yesterday morning. There were inany attending thrilling scenes during the progress of the flames, and it may be safely said that the es cape from destruction of the ship houses, and the vessels being built therein, the two-turretted To nawanda, the sectional dock, other buildings, &c., may almost at once come under the head of miracu lous. A email ilickeringlight was observed in one of the Windows in the western end of the build ings towards Front street, as the two o'clock re lief guard were going the rounds of the yard. The discoverer was the sentinel who was posted near the western end of the building. About the same time the sentinel at the gate had hie attention at tracted by the smell of smoke and a flash that convulsively flickered in the upper window. The corporal of the guard was at once called, and in turn the sergeant of the guard , was summoned, and he ap pearedin a few mornents,and proceeded at once to call the officer of the day. By this time the news was communicated to the quarters of the Captain and Commodore. In a very short time, Commodore Stribling, commandant of the yard, Captain C. Welhoraisjor Doughty, commandant of the marine guard, Lieutenant Haycock, officer of the day, and perhaps several other officers, occupying subordi nate positions, made their appearance. Up to this time, it did not appear that the fire had made any progress ; the light still seemed to be struggling to get vent, the smoke commenced to curl lazily from the window frames, The Navy Yard alarm-bell was rung, and the s' long roll was beat" by the marines. The fire had made very little progress, even at this time. The ringing of the bell, and the sound of the long roll aroused all the inhabitants, and nose of them know ing the cause, and not seeing any light, were seized with consternation, and a sort of panic ensued. Some thought the rebels were coming up the Dela. ware.. The ringing of the bell brought as soon as possible all the operatives within sound of its well known tones. Upon arriving there, the first thing they did was to bring into requisition the apparatus in the yard, consisting of two hand engines, several carriages of hose, and hooks and ladders. The Go. vernment fire apparatus was under the command of Thomas A. Delany, who has charge of this depart ment As soon as the marines received orders from the proper officer, they and the watchmen of the yard went to work ; but many of the operatives who had arrived and who belonged to this department, were refused admittance by the guard. It was evi dent that the rules for the government of the pa, in case of fire, were entirely lost sight of during this emergency. About this time, a police officer on Front street, who bad discovered the fire almost as soon as the sentinels inside, started for the Shiftier Hose Company, whose house is located on Reed street, below Second, a distance of about three squares. TAB SHIFFVER ARECIVBS . The Shiftier arrived in a few udnittes and was ready to pass in the water from three plugs which they had already taken. But the members met with an impassible barrier and were thus for a time effectually impeded in their patriotic endeavors. The guard was drawn up before the main gate on Front street, and the firemen and the neighboring °Miens endeavored to get in: " Stand back," said the guard, "you can't come in without orders" - " Don' t you see the property burning4l” shouted back representatives of the populace and the fire department. "Can't help it ; you must stand back.” Just at this moment the smouldering fire had burnt 'through the fourth story floor, and living coals were showered into the apartment below. The whole of the third story and part of the fourth was brilliantly illuminated, and the flames were pro. greasing rapidly to the roof, which was covered with slate. The smoke nowincreased, and curled up from the eaves and windows. A full half hour had elapsed, and yet nobody was admitted. It was very evident that the building and valuable contents were doomed to inevitable destruction. "Let us in I" shouted the Skiffler. "Stand back ; you cannot pass without orders." The flames were now rapidly increasing, and the building presented all the appearance of a model diorama of the eruption of Mount Vesuvius. • The smoke curled wildly though majestically through the upper stories. The red tongues of flee were lick ing up . coil upon coil of tarred cordage and other inflammable material, At this moment the Shiffiers stormed the iron gates.on Front street, but the guard drove them back at a charge bayonet. The firemen then put their hose under the gate, and told the ma rines to lead it to the fire. This they refused to do, because they had not received orders. Marines are, of course, perfect machines, and being strictly dis ciplined, do not often, move unless ordered. They of course are not censurable. There was another, and perhsps'more thrilling scene going on at another part of the yard. It was the arrival of THE WBOOACHE ENGINE. • Steamer, hose, and Hook and ladder, had already arrived at Prime and Church streets, north of the burning building and at the eastern. end thereof. Here there was a break in the wall, to in extent of perhaps fifty feet, consequent upon improvement-- going on. This aperture in the wall was enclosed _ with a - board fence. The inside was guarded by a solitary sentinel. The Weceacoe members, aided by several of the Cooper-Shop Volunteer Refreshment Committee, stormed the wooden fence that barred them from the yard. The temporarygate was forced " open, and the solitary sentinel stood his ground, with his musket at a charge baronet. "It ie my orders to allow no one to pans here," nhouted he. Cant help it, ,, replied the enthusiastic Wean noes. as they imbed on ; at the same moment two or three of them went head over heels into the cellar of the new improvementa now going on. None of them were hurt. _ - The sentinel was flanked right and left, and some one gave him to understand that, if he dare shoot, the crowd would kill him. He was most emphati cally a 'prisoner on his post. It was not his fault, certainly. The next moment the Wecoacoe had three streams on the tire—one on Prime street, another on the east end of the building, and the other on the south side, In the interior of the yard. The battle between fire and water now commenced in real earnest. THE ALARAT IS SOUNDED At 2 o'clock and 22 minutes the fire alarm was sprung by the police. This would have been done before, but for the requests of the officers in the yard, who thought they could subdue the flames without any outside help. When the State - House bell struck, the fire had been burning within eight minutes of an hour, that is, from the time of disco. very. The yard was now opened to the Fire Depart. ment. Company after company arrived in quick succession, ard soon immense volumes of water were thrown in upon the burning pile. The Shiftier and the . Hope had almost exclusive control of the_ ' , western end, and continuous streams of water were troouredin here. The tire burned stubbornly, the roof being well slated. The various articles in sto rage in the first story were removed by the Navy Yard employees, the firemen and po lice. Among' these goods - were cans of benzine, copal varnish, and barrels of spirits of turpentine. These, in being rolled out, were more or less damaged. Several spigots were broken :from the cans, and a head or two was smashed out of barrels of turpentine. This highly combustible liquid spread over the surface of the yard, and. among barrels and cans of the same material. Pre sently the roof of the burning building fell in with a great crash, and while myriads of sparks shot 'up ward, large flakes and burning timber fell to the ground. In an instant the benzine took fire, and abe scene at this time was thrilling and sublime as it was frightful. Apprehensions were now enter tained that the fire , could not well be mastered. Chief Lyle telegraphed at halt•palt two o'clock to the Central Station, to - STRIKE A. GENERAL ALARM, in response to which the whole Fire Department was speedily in motion. The benzine, varnish, and tur pentine that had ignited as above stated was carried down the gutter in the torrent of water. This'&ut ter was close to the south side of the big ship hbuse, and emptied into the river in the immediate vicinity of a number of large frigates, steamers, transports, and gunboats. In its wild course it set fire to a row of ornamental trees that had justbeen painted, the benzine in the paint accelerating the flames. The firemen turned five or six powerful streams of water upon it, but instead of checking the flames it posi tively increased them. Presently a large pile of boxes or eases of shell and solid shot ignited, and the cry of " Look out for an ex plosion I" startled the ears of the working crowd, and for a few moments even the hearts of the daring men who had fought many a battle of fire and water quelled, and there was a tendency to a panic among the busy men. A stream or two from steamers was, constantly applied to the encased shell and shot. The panic, however, was momentary, for the fire men were assured that none of the shells were ;-there was no fixed ammunition in the yard. The liquid fire kept on its wild- and apparently re sistless course toward the "big ship" house. Every body, expected to see that immense pile of architec tural framework speedily enwrapped in flames. Water was entirely useless as a remedial agent in this case. A large number of men wtth old tarpau lins dammed up the gutter with them, while other operatives with spades and shovels threw dirt upon the stream, and thus the ship house was placed out of the imminent danger that it was in. - There: 35 no question that, had the. -- big-shiwbouse' become wrapped in flames, the little ship butiding would speedily have followed suit, with the new ships hulloing in "them. In such a case no earthly power could have saved the double turretted moni tor Tonawanda. The sectional dock, and other adja cent and valuable property, to the amount of many Millions of dollars, would have been' involved in one vast general - conflagration. During .all this scene of terror, one could not help admiring the gal lint conduct of Capt. Wells. In the midst of the greatest of the excitement, he was calm and cool, and thus able to give direction in the operations of the men under his official command. The same may be truly said of the officers , lho hold subordinate positions to that which he so well fills. An immense Dumber of people had cOngregated at the scene of the conflagration, and it 'was evident that by four o'clock the firemen had gained" the victory, by the use of twenty steamers. 'THE ORIGIN OP THE NINE AND. THE LOSS The buildings on fire were . substantially built of brick, four-stories high, with heavily framed roofs, covered with slate. The cellar or basement was used u a storage for beef, pork, and other provisions. The trot story was used by the naval store keeper, purser, and other attachis of the Navy Department. portion was also used for naval stores, of every description, required in fitting out a vessel of war. The books and papers-attached to these depart hients were saved. The second story was used for the storage of canvas, of which goods there was an immense amount on hand, some of it having' been received within a few days. The fire did not reach this apartment. j The canvas .was deluged with water, but this wil not injure it to any great extent. Of signal.lampe, and ships-lanterns, bunting, .&c.; there was any number or quantity; all saved. The third story was entirely destroyed. It was occupied for different purposes. The gunner had his office on this floor ; -here was also the medicine room, containing a- large stock. The remainder of . She apartment was used as the gunners' working loft. It was pretty well stored with ordnance stores, the gearing for the guns of seven vessels, cartridge bags, &c., &c. All destroyed. _ In the fourth story or attic, there was considers ble property destroyed, some of it invaluable, be cause it cannot be replaced. In a small foom on this floor wer e stowed away for siesta keeping many articles of rarity and taste, the collection of many yeari, by the late Commodore Hull, proverbial, for hie Pfriu. This was an extensive museum of curi osities ,• articles of -use and ornament that. he .had Collected Outing his lifetime in all parts of the World. There were many volumes of rare and valu able books, and quite .a stock of wine in bottles Some 01 it at least fifty years old. These things had Leen left here by the widow, of the old Commodore for, safe keeping ; but nowall these things of beauty sad taste are involved in a mass of black and ahapelees mins. In this story was a large collection elf valuable patterns, designs, plans, drawings, an 'endless variety of such things, the accumulations of half a century. Among the valuables' destroyed, Were a large number of rifibs of the Dahlgren pat tern, cutlasses and pistols. The' origin of the fire is Somewhat involved in mystery. Reports to any amount freely circulated among the crowd that it was the work of the enemies - of-the Government ; that disloyal persons were employed in the yard; and that treason was covered up there under milt. tary clothing. As an instance, and it may be singu. /ar to relate, we heard a mu denounce some of the officers as " Copperheads„” &c. The very de nouncer intends to vote the Copperhead ticket at the coming election. All the idle and wild ru: more of this kind about this man or that man, may do very well for a little exciting talk, but they can have effect upon the calm philosophy of reason. The origin of the fire is not exactly known. Fire Mar shal Blackburn will sift the matter - well. It has been ascertained that the fire broke out in the car penters, cleaning room, where there weregreasy rage and other waste. No fire was used in this apartment. The room was locked and tight. The great probability is that it originated from spontaneous combustion. The extent of the fire and the very narrow escape of the most of the property in the yard, maybe attributed to the red tape of official dignity. The loss is vari ously estimated from 50,000t0 100,000 dollars. The United States Goverment never gets any of its pro perty insured. The fire having been subdued, the Wecoacoe and Hope steamers were now put into re• quisition, and drew the water out of the cellar. About five o'clock their labors ceased. BASE BALL—The Athletics returned frera Altoona early on Sunday morning, highly gratified with the result of their visit. On Friday they played., with the Mountain Olub, and came off the victors by <a' score of 73 to 22, the latter being the highest score any club has made against them this season. The Philadelphians were treated with unbounded hospitality, and they will long bear in remembrance their match with the Mountaineers or Altoona. On Thursday next the renowned Ebrelia Club op Newark, N. J., will visit Philadelphia for the pur pose of playing with the Olympiad, Athletics, and Keystones. We have not seen the programme but we suppose the Eurekas will be the guests the Olympics on Thursday, the Keystones on Friday, and Athletics on Saturday. No doubt these clubs' will maintain the character of our city for good play and genuine hospitality. Delegates from the three clubs will meet the Eurekas at Trenton. Members of the Nassau Club, of Princeton, will accompany the Eurekas to Philadelphia. Meetings of our clubs will be held immediately, to make arrangements for this base-ball festival. The Athletics meet to-night (Monday) at the residence of their president. The Eureka. will put up at the headquarters of ball players visiting Philadelphia. The Eurekas will be followed by 'the noted Star Club, of Brooklyn, on the 24th inst. Two of the above games will be played on the grounds of the Keystone Club, corner of Eleventh and Wharton streets—the parade ground—and one match on the Athletic grounds, on Seventeenth and Master streets. These contests will be among the most interesting that have yet taken place in this city. ARRIVAL OF THE MASSACHUSETTS.—The United States supply steamer Massachusetts, Lieut. West commanding, arrived oft the navy yard about two o'clock yesterday afternoon, from the South Atlantic Blockading Squadron, via Hampton Roads, with about two hundred passengers , prisoners, and invalids. Among her passengers is Commander Rhind, of "Keokuk" fame. She has been as far south Be Mosquito Inlet, Florida, and supplied over fifty vessels with provision and other articles nese*. nary to man's sustenance. She reports the loss sus tained by our forces in the attack on Fort Sumpter, on the Bth inst., was not dyer fifty persons in killed, wounded, prisoners, and missing. The attacking party did not exceed 250 men. The bombarding , of Ntbe forts on Sullivan's and James' Islands was pro gressing when the Massachusetts left Charleston harbor, on the evening of the 9th inst. SAD CASE of LPROWNING.-9. little SOU Or Captain David W. Lennox, aged five years, Sell off the new steam-tug Fred Wheeler, on Saturday last, and was drowned. The tug is owned by D. W. & Wm. Lennox & Co., and was on its way. from Phi- ladelphia to Trenton at the time of the accident. The father made a narrow escape of his own life in his endeavors to rescue the child.- RESIGNATION.—We are authorized to state that Mr. James. G. Barnwell, principal of the Fif teenth-ward Grammar School, has resigned on ac count of ill health, the Designation to take effect about the 15th of October. CHANGE of Houns.—By an advertisement in another column it will be seen that a new time table on the West Chester and Philadelphia Rail road (via Media) goes into elect today: DEATH AT TUE U. V. R. S. HOSPITAL—. A discharged soldier, named David Duncan, died at the Union Volunteer Refreshment Saloon Hospital yesterday morning, about 11 o'clock. LEGAL INTELLIG•ENOE. United States District Court—Judge Cad wsdadei. But little was done in this court on Saturday. Sentence was imposed on the two men who were some time ago convicted of passing altered United States treasury notes. They were sentenced to two years and sis months' im prisonment in the Eastern Penitentiary. District Court in Banc—Judges Sharirwood and Stroud. The court was engaged during the day with the cur rent and deferred motion lists. - Court of Oyer and Terminer and Cinturter Sessions—Judge Ludlow. The whole of Saturday's session was taken up with cases of enlisted minors. who sought to be disobarged on habeas corpus. Most all of the boys were of such youth ful appearance that it is a matter of wonder that any re cruiting officer would receive them. THE POLICE. Further Reeptte. Farragan, now under sentence of death for the murder of Williamson, has been further respited by the Gover nor, until Friday, 27th of October. 'Alleged Theft. A young man .was arre.ted yesterday morning, at the n avy yard lire, on the charge of stealing a rifle. It is said that be threw it 'out of a window. and then came .out of the building and picked it up. As he was going away with it, he was seized by a police officer, who locked him up for a hearing. =2EI Police Items of an interesting nature were scarce on Saturday and yesterday.
