raging last night,• and, as we stat
in our report of the disaster yesterday,
will probably continue until every parti

on fire has been oonsumed., . Since our
last account of the fire there have
been but few Additional incident - 3 tr ans .
airing worthrof note. The DB in the
tanks mentioned continued to burn
without rAny abatement or •perceptillie
' change until about six o'clock yesterday
morning, when the large tank, which
had caught lire the evening previous,
bursted, and the burning oil was spread
in a sheet of fltunu:all over that portion`
which We described Yesterday, doing no
serious damage, however, as everything
ofo a perishable nature had been con
of
Thursday. During the remainder
of the day the fire continued without
the oncurretice of anything worthy of
note.
A r'epor't was current that a roan had
been burned to death in the barrel house
out Thursday, but it was not credited. It
was stated ttat several men, who were
rutoxicated, had gone into the barrel
hour:tonna laid down, and when It be
came evident that it could not be saved
from thelury of the flames, their friends
rushed in and rescued all butone of the
drunken party, and he refusedito come
out. It vas only a iumor, however, as
we were unable to find any person who
had seen the man in the barrel house.
Nothing definite has been ascertained
relative to the remains of the man found
on Thursday.
It is not apprehended that the fire will
spread any further, or that there will be
any further destruction of property.
The entire loss in consequence of the
disaster, is estimated at $250,000, upon
,Which there is but 883,750 insurance.

Very Latest.
The alarm of fire sounded from box 75,
at one o'clock A. st., was occasioned by
the renewed violeht demonstration of
the fiery element. The oil in the six
thousand barrel tank, which was burn
ing during the day, at midnight reached
the deposit of water on the bottom,when
the steam, generated by the in
tense heat, caused the flames to
burst out in renewed fury, reaching
three hundred feet toward the heavens.
The double two-story frame dwelling,
occupied by German workmen employed
at the refinery, and owned by Mr.
H. Schneider, took fire and had to be
torn down by Hook and Ladder Coin.pany No. 1, to save tho Franklin
tooHtel,
adjacent. The sight presented our
reporter at that hour this morning Was
truly grand and magnificent. Fora mile
around the scene of the fire everything
was plainly discernible, and the heavens
were red as blood in the bright glare. The
tire, it is thought, has exhausted Itself
and will do no more damage. Earth
works in the form of Nib-pits have been
thrown up ma either side oftho five acres
of ground already devastated, and will
serve to check the progress of the flames.
The Standard Oil Refinery was in Immi
nent danger this morning, but owing to
precautions adopted, no alarm need be
manifested for its safet night , ad
ditional amount lost las we shotld
not be surprised should the aggregate
closely approximate three hundred thou
sand dollars, if note much larger suns.
othThe Duquesne, •Niagara, Vigilant and
er engines were on the ground, work
g industriously, when our reporter left
at two o'clock this morning. A slight
wind was blowing westward, which is a
favorable sign, as all the property in
that direction has Nam destroyed.

in
and wio , s wh•-e- was_ boa ted the cooper -shop,
the
.p man'afactory. He at once gave
'alarm wilich summoned the officers
er the institution. and caused an exam.
ination of the premises.
The sting in which the fire was discov
ered was a two story brick edifice, lees
ted on the eastern side of and connected
with the main building by a platform,,
constructed from the second- flours
across an intervening space of about
twenty feet. The lower floor was occu
pwhd as a 000 per shop, and the tipper ae a
p manufactory. Neither of these
were managed by the officers of the
Refuge, although the male inmates of
the House were employed in them.
The cooper shop was controlled by
Messrs. R. T. Kennedy & Brother, pro
prietors of the Pearl Steam Mill, Alle
gheny. The whip factory was under the
supervision of Messrs. Weaver, Bardall
dt Co. Both of these firms paid-the
Refuge for the time employed by the
boys.
When the officers of the Refuge entered
the whip factory, they discovered the
flames to be raging fiercely between the
ceiling and rafters, but supposing it
possible to subdue the flames -with the
'force at their disposal, they did not im
mediately summon the Fire Depart.;
rums. They , commenced with the hose,
kept on hand for an emergency, and
the buckets; but atter working
about fifteen minutes, and find
ing the flames increasing, telegraphed
for assistance to Allegheny and were
answered by the entire Fire Department,
in about twenty minutes: The engines
were compelled to draw water from the
river, there being no other water feel!-
' ties., The arrival of the firemen was very
' opportune, s the fire began to spread
towards the main building, It was
however prevented extending in that
direction by the demolition of the
connecting platform and the prompt ex
ertions of the firemen in directing two
streams of water upon that 'side of the
burning building. Before the flames
filled the interior of the shops a por
tion of the , stock was removed from the
coopering establishnient, but none could •
be secured from the, whip factory. The
fire continued to burn for over two hours,
and resulted in the total destruction of
the wing in which it originated and al
most the entire contents.
The loss of Messls. Kennedy & Bro. is
estimated at 11,500, upon which, we are
inforrued,t here was no insurance. Messrs,
&
Weaver Co. will lose probably 12,500,
consisting principally of finished work.
They were not Insured. The building
when constructed, about five years since,
cost $12,000, and as it was totally de
stroyed,nothing but a portion of the walls
remaining, the Refuge will lose this
amount. This is, however, about, if no;
altogether, covered by in.suranee. We
could not learn the exact figures or the
Company. Great credit is duo the fire.
men for the manner in which they
discharged their duties. Had it not been
for their promptness and energetic labors
doubtless the entire Refuge Weald are
been destroyed. The fire . is sup dto
have originated from ade In the
smoke stack built up from the cooper
shop, through the whip factoryand roof.
A few days since this stack was covered
with a spark arrestor, to provide against
fire"from this cause, but the anpposition
Is that the stack had became heated near
the rafters and set them on fire, which
had been smouldering for several days.
There had been no fire in either shop for
nearly two hours previous to the confla
gration, the boys having quit work at
four o'clock.
At the time of the alarm, the male in
mates of the Refuge, one hundred and
sixty-seven in all, were out on their
play ground. Notwithstanding the ex
citement, however, they remained quiet,
evincing no signs of insubordination and
were taken into their appropriate rooms
in the usual manner, as though no ex
citement at all existed. The gates were
necessarily thrown open, but though
evory opportunity for an escape was thus
afforded, all the inmates were true to the
confidence reposed in them. Some of the
most trustworthy were engaged in ex
tinguishing the fire, and labored as hear
tily as though their own houses were
were being destroyed Circumstances
like these, speak wl the discipline
of the institution.
We are indebted to the obliging Super
intendent, Rev. Avery and the gentle
manly Clerk end Librarian of the Refuge,
Mr. J. M. Bogga, for their kindness in
furnishing every information in relation
to the affair.

Summary Ejectment:
Our judicial friend, Alderman ?denies
ters, descended from his magisterial
dignity and engaged in hnew role. It
was in this wise. Information was
lodged before him by a widow residing
In the Eighth ward, Allegheny, against
a well known surgeon of this city for as
sault aqd battery. The lady, who is
quite old, alleged she had called on the
man of the knife and saw some time ago
to dress one of her arms, which had un
fortunately been broken. The attendant
called in regard to the affair about six.
teen times, and was paid for his services
lltty dollars, the amount of the bill pre
sented. About two weeks after the.pay
mem of the bill, it is said a new one for
three dollars was sent in and payment
eremptorily demded but refused.
The surgeon then d re w up a note and, it
is alleged, compelled the lady to sign it
by going to her house, (In which she
resides alone,) dragging her forward to
a table and guiding. her hand to make a
cross. She being German, and finable
to purport e English. was /amble to
tell the of the note until ft was
afterwards revealed to her. The accused
was emoted in an hour or two after the
information had been made and bniught

the required akurity, he again became

remarks charged the ~ ..ildertnan with
snaking the 0388 without ally informa
tion having been lodged before him at
all. Becoming valorous, atioording to

forth a huge knife and threatened to ex-

city, and one which; has been synony

from the leading houses of the east. The
present invoice comprises all that is new
and elegant in jewelry, selected by Mr.

judicious assortment, as few gentle
men understand better how to please
the public in matters of this ;kind.
1 The stock of gold and silver watch

fair dealing merit.

"Westward the Star, ac.”
The rapid strides our city is making in
the way of public improvements, great
as they may appear, do not keep pace
with the age of progressin which we live.
This fact is fafly demonstrated by the
increase in our business and the estab
lishment of new manufacturing houses,
of almost every descaiption, within a
few years past. 'Until: within two or
three years the manufacture of queens
' ware in this- section was unthought of,
and dealers were compelled to transport
their stock from the East,_paying a large
freight upon the same. IWe now have, i
however, an establishment where a
quality of ware, equal to the celebrated
Liverpool ware, is manufactured and
sold at about one half the cost. We re
fer to the extensive establishment of S.

a large and complete assortment of se

Ether.
Dr. Mason Warren says in his "Surgi
cal Observations with Cases" that "in the
course of twenty years not a single death
can be fairly attributed to the use of
Sulphuric Ether. In the Massachusetts
General Hospital alone it has been em
ployed over twenty thousand times,
without a single unfavorable occur
rence." Dr. J. Scott bears the same tes
timony. ,He has administered ether for
the painless extraction of teeth in OVER
TWENTY THOUSAND CARES, WithOUL in
jury resulting in a single case. With a
practice of nearly-thirty years, he stands
at the head of his profession, and his
guarantee is worth something, and he
says to those who are suffering with de
cayed or unsightly teeth, that he will
.uarantee to extract them without pain.
He i
also inserts arficial teeth n every
style, and defiesti competition both in
prices and excellence or the work. Re
