It was an fmmense wooden structure, and was soon enveloped fn the flames.

Across the street from the Ocean stood Congress Hall, with its 700 feet of sea front- age. It bad accommodations for 600 or 700 guests. The “beat was intense. The firemen did their utmost, but their. efforts were futiie, and the great building was destroyed. The Columbia, the third largest hotel on the island, was attacked, and, with the cot- tages surroundiug it, enveloped in flames. Meanwhile the ,tire leapt across Washmerton street into the wunzes, aud to il vpear- ances THE WHOLE TOWN WAS DOOMED, E ‘The inbabitants worked mantully, aud in some instanees cottages were torn down to stay the flames. The Atlantic House, the Avenue House, and the Wyoming succumbed, and the fire worked graduslly up to the Stockton, the Jargest hotel ou the islaud, where pearly 1,000 guests can be taken careof. iu front of the Stockton stood 8 line of cottages. futo these the flames spread. By this time the Philadel- hia firemen were on the ground, with others from Vineland, and a stand was made agaiost the flames, and it is thought thut the fire 1o that di- rection is under control. - THE PRINCIPAL STRUCTURES RURNED were the Atlantic Hotel, Congress Hall, Occan House, Columbis House, Centre House, Ave- uue House, Wyomivg House, Merchants’ Ho- tel, McCray’s, Kiuw's, Fryer’s, Cahill’s,»Judyre Hamberser’s, Eliza Miller's, Suctkey’s, Alex- ander McCouuell’s, three of Finan's cottages, and Biuff Cottage.

Nov. 9.—The worst fire that ever visited this city was discovered this morning at 7 o'clock in the attic of the Ocean House, on Perry street, below Washington, the new wing of the Centre Hoase {ntervening between the Ocean House, and Wasbington street, the main thorouzhfare of Cape May. The fire was _evidently the “work of an fo- cendiary, as there had been no fire in the Ucean Housc. since «the close of the season. A police officer gave the alard® and the Fire Department of the city, consisting of truck, one band engine, aud a pumber of chemical engines responded promptly, but it was soon toaud they could do fittle toward sub- duing the flames. No one had baen in the Ocean House for several days. For the past two seasons the house was run by S. R.' Lualam, who, about fifteen minutes before the fire was discovered, left for Phila~ delphia. . The old wing of the Ocean House was not in- jured when the fire shot across Perry street to . the west, 2n¢ ATTACEED CONGRESS HALL in what was called Whisky Row. The wind was then from the northwest and blowing thirty-six y miles an bour. The flames spread to tho vew wing of Congress Hall, fronting on Perry street, apout the same time it com- municated to the back part of the Merchants® House, on Jackson street. Soon aiter the main. wing of Congress Hall, on Washington street, caught. The fire theu extendea to the Centre House, at erry, Washinston, and Jack~ son streets, whence the fames communicated ta the old wing of the Ocean House on Perry strest, aud at the same time reached Ceutre House Cottage a0d communicated to Peterson’s cot- taze on Jucksou street. The fire rapidly swept over the adjoining property to the Ten-Pin Alley on Jackson street. Now the Merchants’ Hotel, alreadv on fire,but kept under control, burst into flames, which made their way down to the beach. It Jooked ay if the whole city was doomed. The fire swept along to Finlon’s ** Cottage by the Sea,” on Jackson street. Charles Suelke’s Centennial House was next burned to the ground, and Mrs. Miller's cottaize on Jackson strect followed. Tben the faines, now raging furfously, . REACHED THE OLD ATLANTIC HOUSE, and shot across Juckson street to Georze Hille worth's cottace, which fell a victim, together with the Cahill cottaze. The Knickerbocker House was then attacked, and soon after Willtam E. Kiog’s hot-bath establishment was included in the general destruction. George Fryer's cottace, standing alone on the blafl below the Ocean House, was enveloperd by flames aod burned. Then came the Avenue House, kept by Georze T. Daugherty, the property of the Burn’s estate, at the foot: of “Perry street. This was followed by 8. A. Rag- dolpli’s cottage on Jackson street. ‘While the fire was at its height, sbout noon, and after the Avenue House had causht fire, a steam-engine from Camden arrived, and in this direction the fire was checked. The flames then attacked two cottages of Alex McConnell, and that of Rudolph, but they were KNOT SERIOUSLY DAMAGED. ‘Back of Cahill’s cottage on Decatur street wers Judze Hamburger’s cottage and three of W. E. King’s cottages, which were destroyed. At tlus time—2 o’clock—the alarm came that tne Columbia House, on Ocean street, between Washington street and the beach, was ou fire. The flames soread so rapldly over thisiproperty that it was soon in rujos with & namber of out- ‘buildings, and Beaver cottage on Oceau strect, Taomas E. Tasker's cottage adjoinfng Col. T. S. Smoot’s cottaze on Washington s:rect, the “batb-houses in front of the Columbia House, and aboat 1.090 bati-houses- belouying to.the Stociton Hotel. Some cinders lodzed on the chkmn Hnusa roof, but were extinguished. Two of Warne's cottages, og S(odnon Row, caught fire, but were saveds THE LAST BUILDING ATTACKED was Woll’s cottage, alout" 200 yards from the Stocktou Bouse, where azain the firemen ob- ‘tained the mastery, and this, after continuous work, was about 6 p. m. -At4:30 another steam-engine arrived from Camden, and rendered very efticient aid in checking the fawmes. McCray’scottage, on Jacksonstreet, bebind the Centre flouse and Merchants’, one of the claest buildings on the island, went early in the day. Ou the lawn of the Columbia House, between it and the beach, two cottages, belonging to the botel, were destroyed. The properties in Columbia avenue escaped. THE ENTIRE BURNED DISTRICT covers an arca of about forty acres, and iy’ bounded by Congress on the west, Washinz- ington on the north. Ovean street- on the _east, and the beach on the south. The total “loss is estimated about -$103,000, of which wore than vne-half 13 covered by insurance. THE LOSSES IN DETAIL are as follows: Congress Hall, $100.600.
