[per united press association.] Blknhbim, This Day. At 1.30 this morning a disastrous fire broke out. Il is difficult to say whether it originated at the hack of Andrew's bottling store, or in Holmes and Bell's warehouse. Both places were completely gutted. Very little was saved. IJad it not been for Rogers and Barlequari's buck office, tlie whole block would hare fared badly, but the bricks acted as a barrier. Andrews was- insured at £100 on stock, and £250 on the building, in the National. Insurances on Holmes and Bull's tent will run into some thousands. - Later. Insurances— Andrews, building, LSO in National, and L 1.60 in Union ; stock, LIOO in National.'
