Fire at Duhram.
Durham had a big fire Thursday.
The fire started at 11:25 in the second
story of the large double prize house of
H. J. Bass & Co., on Morgan street,
and the building was in flames when
the firemen reached it. ~The fire spread
to the prize house of J. W. Watts, ec-
cupied by the American Tobacco Com-
pany, and thence to the priz? house of
Manning and Morgan, on Fulton strset
thence to the prize house owned by B.
L. Duke, and thence to the prize house
of W. Duke, ozcupied by the American
Company, thence to the priza house of
W. T. Covington. This house con-
tained 5,000,000 pounds of tobacco and
was iasured for $20,000. ~Twenty-five
hundred hogsheads of tobacco were
| saved and 1,000 pounds of loose tobac
ico. Nine residence on Fulton, Morgan
land Randolph streets were burned. !
The burnt area covers eigat acres. |
The loss is $500,000. This is Durham's
largest fire since the great fire in 1880.
