[Frem Evening Bulletia, About Seen oalook jast evening @ tire broke out in the large brick build! on Front street, above Lomi . weil known a8 Pattersou’s bonded ware house. These buildings were erected in 1854 by John ‘Alen, builder, tor Colonet Wiliam ©, Patterson, These buildings were divided ito eight section: Jeuered from A to H, inclusive, and having a fron! ef 220 feet on Front street, and running back 135 e feet, all seven stories biga, except section H, which was six. Each was supposed to be completely tire- proof, and built without connection with each other, and therefore supposed to be perfectly safe from destruction by fire. The waus of the building were eighteen inches in thickness throughout The par- tilion walls were solidjfrom the cellar foundation ‘upward, and the connections were by arched doors; out each one of them had solid iron doors always closed. Every window was protected by iron window shutters, and these were mvariably closed atuight. The budding on the northeast corner of Froxt and Lombard streets (section H) was used to a large extent for oilices, and in it was contained ma- eliuery, thus reducing to some extent the capacity dor the storage of merchandise. On Lonroard street, twenty Jeet east of Front street, the boilers were ocated. The machinery used i the buiiaing con- eisied of poweriul elevators to hoist and Jower goods: consequentiy the boilers were of much power. Tiey were located be meath the pavement, or rather vault, The fire room connected with the oimces by steps. Between seven end eigut o’clock in the morning these stores were opeued, and they were eiosed at tive P. M., a watchman being ictt in charge. In former days these stores were used principally for the storage of sugar, molasses and cotton, but since the close of the war vast amounts of whiskey have been placed in them by the United States gov- ernment and a number of individual tirms, OBIGIN OF THE FIRE. ‘The fire originated in section H, which was at the corner of Lombard street. About seven o'clock a large portion of the wall on Lombard street fell to the pavement with aloud crash, supposed 10 have been pushed out by the weight upon the floors. The wluskey stored went down with the ruins, and in a few moments a terrific explosion took place, throwlug down every wall of sec- tuon H, scattering bricks, timbers, &c., in every direction, while the Names shot up in a solid body far above the surrounding buildings, crea general consternation among the residents of the Deigaborhood; for it was 000 rumored that a num- ber of children had been killed and several men badly if not fataly burt. Women were running around frautically to find children that had left cheir bomes, but as those who were missing began to re turn the excitement sowewhat abated. The explo- sion, of course, set the entire contents of the ware- house on fire and soon burning whiskey ran down the gutters in Swanson street to Pine, and thence into ‘We sewer leading to the river, and 10 @ short ume ap explosion took place 12 the sewer, breaking @ rtion of it, but not doing any very great damage. e flame continued, however, through the sewer to she end of the wharf, which it set on fire and came near tiring a brig lying near the pier, put fortunately asteamtug happened to be close by, which towed the brig out of oanger. When the wall on Lombard street fell the root ‘was ijeft banging in position, but when the explosion took piace all the walls and the roof feli to the ground, exposing the walls of the next section from the roof to the pave ment. The bricks were piled eight or ten feet high in Lombard and other streets adjoining. The Sre- mren were soon on the ground and worked with great zeal and energy, not only to check the flames pouring fortn from the destroyed buildings but to Bave the surrounding property, and at half-past eight o’ciock it was thought the Names were under eontrol, aud that the other sections of the ware- house would be saved. In @ very short time, however, the flames broke out in sec- G, one of the seven story puildings, and in a time the contents of the warehouse were one mazs of fire, the flames shooting up far above the Toot of the building and lighting up the streets and Dulidings for squares around. Firemen and citizens Who had not been apprised of the first fire now Mocked vo the acene, crowding the thoroughfares in that vicinity to sucn a degree that it was almost im- possible to get within several squares of the scene of conflagration. At nine o'clock the fire had made its way to sec- tion F, reaching this putiding by the iron sheathing along the edge of the roof, and in a very short ume the side wail fell, and in afew moments thereafter ‘the front wall came down with a loud crash, creating an intease excitement. GENERAL ALARM, At twenty-four minutes past nine a general alarm ‘Was rong by order of Chicf Engineer Downey, and at forty minutes past uine this aiarm was repeated by direction of Mayor Fox, who was upon the grouud. The firemen from all secuons of the city came upon the ground, and as the lignt made by the conflagration could be distinctly seen for many miles, people flocked to the scene in large numbers. The crowd became very great, and all the policemen held in reserve in the station houses were sent for. Ropes were then stretched across Lombard and Pine streets to keep back the spectators, The Names continued to spread through the entire block of stores, and to burn furiously despite the mos. strenuous exertions on the part of the firemen. Section alr seciion took fire, and when the interior had been consumed the walls one o’clock this morning @ very heavy shower of rain fell. This gaed the firemen maternally, but the flames were Mot got under subjection until nearly daylight. The fire was very far from being extinguished by that time, but it was under such control that the greater portion of the Fire Department could be dismissed. At Loon to-day the fire was still burning in the ruins of section H, and in a portion of section A, which is still standing. All that is left of this fine series of stores is the front wall of section A on Front street gud the walls of sections A and B on Penn atreet. Toe estimated value of the warehouses destroyed 46 trom $690,000 to 800,000, The structures are fally covered by insurance, but the names of the compa- mies could not be ascertained, TRY CONTENTS OF TRE WAREHOUSES. Every portion of the warehouses was filied with Whiskey, und the origin of the disaster which has Fesulied in the destruction of these substantial edi- ices is attributed to too much Weight upon the floors of section H. Among the extensive stock of liquor on storage Was some v fine old whiskey belong wo Hs Hannis & Co., and valued at fifteen dollars per gallon. ‘the total quantity of whiskey stored upon the mises Was 26,000 barrels. Of thia amount H. S. jaunis & Co. had 8,000 barrels, Henry Bohlen 1,500 barre’ H. & A.C. Van Beil 250 barrels, Thomas Dilion 29) barrels, George Whitely 200 barrels, Henry Wallace & Co. 1,000 barrels, Joseph F. Tobias 43s barrels, H. & H. W. Cathetwood 2,100’ barrels, R. Fadgeway 5,000 barrels, Barney Carr 900 barr George Ritchie 800 barrels, Carstairs & Movali 200 barrels, J. D. Wiliams 700 barrels. The remainder belonged to other ‘parties, who nad dif- ferent quantities, ranging from 10 to 100 barrels. Of the wiuskey on the premises it 1s believed that 400 or 600 bartels Wil be saved. The value of the liquors destroyed is estimated at $2,500,000, THE INSURANCE. insural upon the stock foots up We append a hist :— mpany of North Fire lusurance The total $2,299,000.

THE SURROUNDING PROPERTIES. Mach of the sdrrounding m great danger, but owmg to the exertions of the firemen and the insurance patrol, the loss beyond the ware- ‘houses is inconsiderable. Some of the occupant stores and on the south side of Pine street, had their furniture considerab\y damaged by hasty removal. ‘The buildings on the east side of. Penn street and the west side of Front street, immediately opposite the destroyed warehot damage. A three story orick dwel at the southeast cor- ner of Front and Lombard streets was considerably scorched in the rear, The butiding belongs to the Ridgway estate, and is msured in the Green Tree and Girard. It 18 occupied by Dr. Urquhart. The ‘total loss by fire and water ts estimated at _— At the southwest corner of Peon and Lombara streets is a large brick building, belonging to the Ridgway estate, and used as the recruiting rendez. vous of the United States navy. The roof was partly destroyed and ail the shutters on Lombard atreet were nearly burned off, The 108s is covered by in- surance in’ the Green Tree and Girard. Roof of buiiaing southeast corner of Penn end Lombard was partly destroyed. Owned by Ridg- way estate, and insured in Green Tree and Girard. The balding adjoming ine bonded warehouse, No, 408 Penn street, was used for a storehouse by Messrs. ‘Viti Brothers, and contained @ large invoice of sta- tuary, bronzes and French goods, lately landed from Europe and placed there temporarily. The stock ‘was damaged by smoke and water, probably to the amount of $5,000, which 18 covered by insurance. No. 408 Penn street was somewhat damaged by water, but escaped tnjury by fire. Adjoining the wareheuse, on Front street, are two three story brick dwellings, owned by Mr. Smith, They were unoccupied and were undergoing re} ‘Yhe roofs were destroyed and the interior was in- jured by waver, Insured in the Green Tree. No, 405 Front street, occupied by Miss Wilson, roof somewhat injured ana furniture badly dam- aged by water. In this house it was found that bureau drawers, trunks, closets, &c., had been broken open and plundered, The occupants of ali of the honses on Pine street, from Penn to Front, suffered somewhat by water. CASUALTIES, Several persons were hurt about the fire. Mr. Daniel Haggarty met with severe injuries in & most singular manner. He was standing on the southeast corner of Front and Lombard streets when the explosion occurred, and @ barrel of whis- key came bounding against the house near where he was. It immediately burst ana ignited, burnin; the hair off his head, whiskers off bus face an scalding him. He was taken to his residence, at Penn and South str ets. Michael McNulty, forty years old, residing in Mon- roe street, was driving along Penn street on a@ dray at the time the warehouse fell. Some of the fying bricks struck him and knocked him off the dray, and the horse started off at the same moment. McNulty crawled out of the way, but he was bit witn bricks and timber and considerably bruised. He was re- moved to the hospital. Jacob Andrews, residing In Penn street, below Lombard, was struck in the head bya brick and badly injured. Taken to the hospital. ‘William Long, @ young man residing in the neigb- borhood of the fire, was struck by some bricks and ioe one as his arms broken, He was removed to tal. Wiliam Gills, aged eighteen, residing at No. 512 Penn street, was taken to the Pennsylvania Hospital. Both of lus arins are broken. Thomas Proctor, colored, aged twenty-two, resid- Me at Tenth and Rodman streets, badiy scalded and : bert Or rarer? i Engine C fen Albert Brest, of the ingine Company, fe) trom a ladder and had ts head badly cut, a James McCrecd, aged eight years, residing at No. ‘712 Plover street, was run over by a steamer. Isaac Underdown, an oll clothing dealer, was cut in the face by some of the débris as he was passing. Thomas Maguire, the shipping master, was thrown down by the force of the explosion, and had his ‘wrist badly sprained. James McGrade, eight years old, residing at 1,712 Plover street, was run over by an engine and had an ankle fractured, George Stewart, a member of the Lafayette Hose Company, residing in Fourth street, above Brown, Was taken from the upper part of one of the burn- ing buildings on Front street, nearly suffocated. He was then removed to the Secoud street Market House, where restoratives were applied. William Alburger, residing at 316 Emmet street, was badly injured in the head by a iadder faliing on bim. Awe-Inspiring Scene—The Total Lose. {From the Evening Telegraph, a hiies 5. As the fire progressed the wai's fell one after amother, and the hope that 1: would be stayed proved udiesa. The sea of flame lighted up the whole avens and drew crowds of tens of thousands to witness the frightful scene. The roaring of the fames, the puffing of the fre engines, tue perilous feats of the firemen and the anxious watching of the crowd, to- gether with dread that had struck all who resided near the scene, made a picture that it is imposalbie to describe. It was, indeed, a scene of sarong grandeur. The flames shot up seemingly a hund: feet in the compartments yet standing. and the blaze and heat were overpowering to those com- pelled to be near by. Dense volames of smoke of a yellowish-green- ish hue covered the neighborhood, and as the streams of water oroke their opacity cone like spectrums were shown, bright with all the colors of the rainbow, The flames varied in color, deep biues and purples predominating. Those whose for- tune, or misfortune, it was to gaze upon the sight will never forget the awfniness of the spectacle. ‘They have the sound consolation, however, that the strange colored flames were less hurtful there than 1n burning up the stomachs of those who worship the demon of drink. In the confusion which such a confiagration causes it 1s impossible to give the exact definite loss of pro- perty occasioned; but from close inquiry and com- parison of data we ure assured that the total joss will reach from $2,000,000 to $4,000,000, ‘Tne building, cost to erect $500,000, is now valued at about $1,000,000, and is msured to about this lut- ter amount tn the Green Tree, Girard, Fire Associ tion and other companies in this city. (From the Fourth Edition of Same.) THE LATEST PARTICULARS. The fire of Patterson's warehouse still! burn in spite of the heavy streams of water constaut- ly playing upon it; but the smothered and the circlin noke is wholly cofitined to these rnins, e wails have not yet been en- tirely leveiled, although common prudence seems to require it. On Froat street about forty feet in width and the entire height of the wali still stands, but how long It wili is 4 dubions point. ‘The cars of the Lombard and South streets are run- ning at its base, and should the vibration ot their passage overtopple a crushing weight upon one tre verdict ought scarcely to be “Nobody to blame.’’ On Penn street almost the entire east front yet stands, but Its appearance 1s even more threatening than on Front street. Penn street, however, is there impassable for vehicles, and the use of’ all available precautions is not so urgent ax in the former case. The Conduct of Firemen. {Prom the Press (morning), August 5.) Such an immense conflagration brought together ‘the best of the fire department to pertorm service, and the worst of it came to steal and deoanel. M respectable men who wore equipments were heartily ashamed at seeing a repetition of the Fox theaire fire, viz.:—Men going around with fire hats full of whiskey, Three barrels were obtained from the ruins, and while the rowdies, with equipmenta— principally the cheap kiud of fre caps—were heii ing themselves the police knocked the heads in the barreis and Jet the wniskey run down the gutter, The Latest—The Fire Under Control. PAILADELPULA, August 5, 1869, At twenty minutes to four o'clock this afternoon the fire was brought under contrei; and, though suil burning, It is believed that it will be confined to the block of warehouse, and that its apread will be au fully prevented, Joln Gibson & Sons correct the statement of last night that taey had whiskey in the Patterson ware- honse, ‘They lose nothing by the fire. Edward Alvurger, residing at No, 316 Emmett Street, died this evening from injuries received at the fire Iast might. ‘Ths is the onty death yet known to have occurred from injaries received there, COMMISSIONERS OF CHARITIES AND CORRECTION. The sated semi-monthiy meeting of the Comme sioners of Public Charities and Correction was held yesterday morning at the Hali, corner of Eleventh Street aud Third avenue. A full Board was present, aa usual, and the workings of the varions instituions during the past fortnight were revised. A very large amount of the ordinary routine mavwers of the de- partment was attended to, These matters comprise reports from wardens, nurses, physicians and others in the charge of inmates of the susutudons in regard to tue histories of inmates, transfers from one insti- tution to another. leaves of absence and such like subjoets, of no general importance.

Two of them, how- r, have been recaptured during the present year. that the disposable means at tle command of the princtpal officers of the prison to prevent escapes and en- force discipline are manifesily insufficient. The number of guards now by law allowed to be emploved at the prison is only thirty—the same number that was allowed fifteen years sg0, wien the number of convicts was lees than 800, while fe Are at present about 1,25 male conviets and about 120 females {a this prison.

Ttis impossible, under present arrangements, to prevent occasional escay and the | elysong, of this fact cannot produce other than a bad influence on the minds of convicts, operating agaiust their proper subjeetion to disctpline and suggesting frequent attempts to escape, We also find, im respect to the late revolt on July 8, 1 discontent among a large portion of about oue-half--and that these were ‘afew ringleaders, probably thirty or iy; that the disturbance vegan on Thuraday, July & and was not fally quelled anti!

He con- fessed his gutit to the Judge, but on his formal ex- amination, after the reading of Mr. ‘thomas’ aMfida- vit, embodying the charges against him, he became more strategic an tious, and said hefhad notbing tosay. He gave his name also as William Rafferty, and birthplace Pennsylvania, very possibly for the moment thinking that he had been indiscretely hasty in making the confessions he had and that this name would appear better on the written records bearing his signature. He was at once com- mitted, in default of $1,000 bail, to answer the charge preferred against him. After the prisoner had been conveyed to his cell Mr. Thomas entered upon a narrative of his antece- dent history as far as he Dad been able to gather the details. As already stated, tne prisoner hired to hum under the name of Wm. Stanley. Mr. Thomas adver- used for a drug clerk, and the prisoner appeared in response to thts advertisement.
