Champlin & Son, off na) strcet, and owned by the Cran- Aall brothers. The nearest fire alarm Dox was 7, in High street mear Ca- nal, but this muddle did not delay the work of the firemen as they must pass the fire before reaching the box from which the alarm was sent in. Before the third round of the 2larm had sounded the Cyciones and Rhode Island Ones were speeding to the and each stretched a line of hoc in quick time, the one from the hy- drant at Railroad avenve and Canal street and the other from the hydrant at High street and Canal street. These well directed streams soon subdued the fire on {he barn roof, and pre- vented other buildings in the viein- ity from catching fire from flving sparks. The fire was confined to the Toof and the damage will not exceed $25. The cause of the fire was from sparks that were wafted in the wind from under a kettle of bolling tar in the rear of the Potter-Langworthy bulld- ng. The Alert Hook and Tadder com- pany responded, but were necessarily delayed in waifing for the arrival of a horse from the Champlin stable to draw the apparatus.
