wiry, CITY.
ERE RECENT INPNFLACRATZON.
Two 'ladies Napporied to be firthe Balm.
The ruins of the great fire were visited yesterday
by thousands of our citizens from all parts of the
city. Tile Press report, delineating itl a plain, pray
tint manner the facts attending the mad disaster,
Ins eo full and accurate that scarcely anythingre.
Inaint worthy our prolessional attention, except to
correct certain false rumors. It was currently re.
ported that James Wright and family, consisting,
an told, of eleven members, pe;rished in the flames.
They lived in house No. 118 d, the. first one adjoin•
lag the coal yard of Messre. Porter & Daily, and
the first to take fire from the flowing burning oIL
House No. 1136 was oocupled by Mr. Wright and
faintly, four in number, two aged German women,
and another family or families, *oxidating of five
members, making eleven In all.
When It was very evident hat this house Was
doomed to almost instant destruction, three mem
bers of the Moyamenaing Hose Company, named
Neil PdcGurk, Thomas McGonigle, and Samuel
McMenamin Fleetwood, ruEhed into the building
and saved all therein. The two old German women
were carried into a neighboring house, and were
finally taken to some other place of refuge by a po
.lloe officer who knew them. As the officer had not
been heard from since that terrible moment of ex
eitement and despair, the report was freely circu
lated that the old women were burned, and finally
that the entire number of eleven perished In the
flames.
It was reported that the family of Mr. Soott, re•
'aiding on Ninth street, near Federal, had perished
in the flames. We made every loquiry In reference
to this, but could find no one who could give any
information on this point. It is believed, however,
that, all the residents in this precise locality had
twenty minutes , time to escape, the Scott family
did not perish, though, so tar as we could learn,
none of the members have been heard from.
In regard to the number of human beings burned
to death, it , may be safely stated to be eight; two
bodies, daughter* of Mr. and Mrs. Ware, were sup
posed to be in the ruins. Search eras being made
for them, but up to the time we left the piece of
desolation last evening no retesting had been found.
A THRILLING ROdNI.
The firemen as a body, the police; and citizens
Truant at the conflagration, and particularly In the
.early part of it, worked vi.lth almoet, superhuman
energy to rescue inmates of the burning and three.
toned dwelling houses. Of these gimlet-we can pre.
Bent one which is full of thrilling interest. Messrs.
rilogurk, bloCionigle, and Stamen Mohlawriener
Fnsierwoon, members of the Illoyamensing Hose
tiompany, rushed into the building 1138 and roe-
Cued all therein. Fleetwood, whose name de•
servos to be' written upon the scroll of
lame, rushed into the building °coupled by
the unfortunate Ware fancily. At this time the
burning oil, hissing and seething, came pouring
deem the street, and the 'loupe, from which eleven
portions had been rescued but a moment before, was
'Joked uplby the red, fiery tongum of the demon of
Destruction. At this time the brave Fleetwood was
bearing in has strong arms the body, It le supposed,
of Mrs. Ware or one of her daughters. His own.
paniona were driven back by the appreitoh of the
btirnin g elerdent-Lthe increasing heat and stifling
smoke. Almost at the same moment the burning.
oil burst through the rear part of the house, and,
flowing through the entry, all chance of esoape was
gone.: The brave fireman endeavored to fight his
way out, still holding the woman in his arms. He
reached the front.door step; it was a moment of
horror ; he leaped from the step, driven by the
flow of burning oil through the house, but the
Denise closed around Lim; a groan and a shriek
escaped the lips of the .victims, and both
fell in death. His companions endeavored to
rescue both, but it was impossible. The orleped
remains of them ware found but a few feet
distant from each other. We saw the charred
body of this brave young man In the basement of
thiold Southwark Hall. It could scarcely be real
ised as the remaineor a Mahan being; but black as
It watt, It was worthy of a grave of distinction and a
monument`of fame, for that frail, crisped form once
contained a soul tharniado the young men noble.
ANOTHER ealox*
it was at a time when all the buildings ware in
flames that another scene ccourred, not so melan
eholy as the foregoing, but still It to interesting.
The Persereranee Hose Company had a hoary
Stream on the rear of the burning tenements. The
Otoupants had already Red for safety. Presently a
young Irishman dashed past tho firemen and ran
into the burning house. The fire was. failing all
around. '
“ COMO out of there,” shouted the'! reny 91 boys
" are yencrasy V' But no reply was heard. In is mo
n:lent after this the roof fell with a great orash,and the
firemen backed. It was thought the man had fallen
a victim to his own rashness. But frooi amid the
fire and smoke, his shirt sleeve on Are, lie °greased
from the burning tenement with something under
his arm.
H I got It 1 I got 1t!" exclaimed he, in scants
tinged with the rioh Irish brogue.
"Got what 1" shouted the fireman.
" The bible me father give me before he died," ro
plied the enthusiastic man, as he disappeared from
view.
ANOTHER BAD SO BE.
- .A_ Mrs. Barlane. who- lived .ln one of the houses
that fell an early prey the flames, died very and
debly. She bad prepared supper for her husbawl_
And. family, and strictly after - this' canigirned of
feeling unwell. She laid herself don on a settee,
alter having °Rifted the table, and‘Red within an
hour. She knew that death was approaching, and
calling her family of four or five little children, gave
them advice. Death stepping in -so suddenly as
this, taking away the beet friend that a child oast
have on earth, an affliction so deep, thattan only
be apprediated by those who experienced such a
loss, need not be dwelt upon. The family were
Comparatively strangers. They have not lived in
the neighborhood long. Mrs. Smith, who lived next
door,
was kind enough to Interest herself, in sym
pathy for the afffloted, remained with the motherless
family. It was a house of woe. The death cham
ber of the mother, the sorrow-strloken husband and
weeping children around, was finally disturbed by
the reports which sounded like dull, heavy explo-
MOM Reports followed one atter another, and
presently a red glare burst forth, and gleamed
through the Cracks of the rear doors and win
dow. In a moment the appalling troth flashed
all around them that the coal oU immediately in
the rear of the hottse was on tire.' The reports that
had attracted some attention for a short time were
those of bursting barrels of oil.
Mrs. Smith had left her husband and family. Her
first impulse wisai to awaken them. Rushing into
her own dwelling, and picking up a sick child,
arousing her husband and-children, escaped through
the front door. The children became almost
perished In the snow and water that yet filled the
Street.
Mr. Harking got his children out of the hones ;
they were suddenly ploked up by persons on the
street. He returned, knd picking up the dead body
of his wife, fled to the street, her hair being slightly
singed by the bursting fire struggling like a vol.
cano to give full vent to its fury. The dwelling of
Mr. Harkins and Mr, Smith were In less than three
minutes enveloped in 01113208.
POLLING DOWN .11121 'WAILS, ETC.
Walls that were in the most dangerous condition
were pulled down yesterday by order of the author!.
ties, All, or nearly all, on the west side of Ninth
street, north or Ellsworth street, were reduced to
piles of rubbish, so that the ruins may be explored
without danger of being injured by faillag bricks.
Mopes were stretched across Ninth street, guarded
by a portion of the Ist and 2d' divisions of the
Police Corps. Thus the great mass of people were
kept out of danger. A boy, driving a horse and
wagon on the Union railway traok, against the route
of travel, was told to turn baok. He would not obey
the police officer, but drove on, giving the officer
some Impudence. The officer caught hold of the
horse's head and turned the animal back. The rook
less boy endeavored to guide the horse the other
way, and putting the whip to him tried to throw the
Officer. He did not succeed. Other officers hastened
to the scene; the boy was arrested and the horse
and wagon taken possession of by the officers. We
witnessed the whole transaction. The action of the
pollee 111 this especial case was entirely commen
dable.
WHAT YHOPRETY WAS DHSTBOYBD.

lowing summary of property destroyed :

LICTROLIF.VM LAW.
The Legislature, excited to a degree of partial
insanity, have passed a bill in indecent halite that
may greatly Interfere with the mercantile business.
A good, Wholesome law is wanted, and the people
will have It. But this law should be the result of
calm consideration instead of excitement. The law,
as passed, Is said to be as fere:
"That It shall be lawful' store petroleum, orude
or refined and benzine, in'snoh quantities as trade
may require. In those portions of Philadelphia lying
south of Mifflin street and north of Allegheny ave.
nue, and that part of the city west of the Schuyl

LOOK OUT POE UWOBTERB.
It was stated last evening privately by a gentle
man who attended the public Meeting of oltizens
that a person was begging yesterday, urging his
claims to sympathy en the ground that he had lost
everything by the conflagration. He was known to
be a professional beggar. Of course, no matter how
disastrous any calamity, there are always mendi
cants mean enough to impose upon eharitable por
tions. There are many individuals soliciting aid for
the suffering who do so from sinister motives. The
public should be on their guard and make no con
tributione to such persons.
We are requested by Dirs. J. V. West, 908 Clinton
Street, to say that she has "rafted many of the
sufferers by the recent disaster, and found them
destftnte of clothing. She' has the means at band
to make up almost any amount of clothing. It is
desired that dry goods merchants forward articles
to her house to be made up into clothing at once.

THE 'NORTHERN LIBERTIES GAS WORKS.
The Committee on Gas Works, having under conside
ration the_propoeal to take possession of the Northern
Liberties Gas Works, reported that they had been una
ble to obtain full information on the subject, and asked
for a postponement of the bill for OSM week.
Mr. SIMPKINS (II) offered an ordinance prohibiting
the storage of more than twenty•five barrels of coal oil
upon any wharf, yard or shed within two hundred
yards of any buildings in the city after theist of March,
under a penalty of IPSO.
Mr.
WOLItBRT ( 0.) wished it to be known that the City
Councils were not responsible for the recent 'Calamity.
When Councils had pad the matter before them the city
Solicitor had given his opinion that an ordinance of the
bind proposed wonld not be binding in law. The re •
sponeibility was with the Legislature for not having
pasted a law to meet the exigenc Pol l ee .the case. He
moved to refer to the Committee on
Mr. Tamps ( II.) offered a cobstitute wohibiting the
storage of more than tan barrels of coal oil or benzine.
except in the rciraldletticts, and then to be in a building
at least two hundred feet isolated from surrounding
structures. .
Mr. HARPER (II.) This ordinance is preelasly the
same as one trait was presented In Mt to Councils, and
was notacted upon. because 11 was believed that an or
dinance Of such a character would not be binding upon
the people. Within the past twenty.. foar hours the
Legislature had hatt.this very subject before them, and
while we were attempting to pass a bill, we should see
that it is a bill that will meet the case. He moved to re
fer to the Con3ml ss on Law.
Mr. Cu swam; (U.), thought that the bill should be
acted upon immedialmtly. There were 1,000 barrels of
coal oil lying at Market street bridge. if the seine ca
lamity should happenlo this oil which occurred to that
at M !Vat and Washington streets, on Wednesday morn
ing, there would be no passage across the Market street
bridge.
A message Was received front the Mayor relative to
the storage of petroleum and the late fire, and urging
Connell. to 'rowers upon, the State Legislature the na
ceselty of securing thin city from a recurrence of calami
ty by similar cause
Mr. NICHI.BI4 (U ) hoped that lotion on the matter
would be postponed no longer. There was a large drum
tity of petroleum now at Mead alley wharf, and the
citizens of that neighborhood had declared that if it
were not remo ved
c to-day they would roll it Into the
river to night. he people must be protected anima, a
recurrence of, the scenes of Wednesday morning. If
Councils fall to take action they will be responsible if
another calamity like the late one occurs again.
The motions to refer to the Committee on Pollee and
Law were lost,
Mr. tharsorrwitharew his ordinance.
The ordinance offered by Mr. Taylor was taken up
Mr. BVANI3 (U ) moved to amend by making the words
ten barrels to read Bye barrels. Agreed to.
Mr. Priam (II.) moved to farther amend by making
MO feet to read LOCO feet. Agreed to.
The ordinance as amended passed.
