31st December.
'At about 9.30 a.m. to-day a fire broke out near the north-west corner of the foreign consession in the rear of threo Iarge tsa-box factorire, om- ing a conflneration such as has not been seen in Hankow for a long tinas. The fomos povu spraad to the factory buildings, which were early all of wood, and boing stowed full of tas-boxes, lamber, and other packing asterials, such as straw mats, ruttans, &c., it will be seen at ouse that when such large quantition of combustible material da- comas iguild the clanos of saving any por tion of it is remoto indood! The three factories zud sil of their materials were outirely consumed. and it was with great diffiealty that the Catholic Mission Hospital building was saved, one of the box factories boing only separated from it by o barrow lane. Messrs Watson & Co.'s drug store was in great danger at one time though the opposite side of the street; as, it was, some of their outhouses were ignited; bat by the stro nuous efforts put forth by the numerous fire brigades they were suvel. The London Mission Hospital was at on time also in great danger. The stiva fi e brigades were on hand in strong force and did all that was possible under the air ormalauous to prevent the fire from spreading. The ginos nied by the native fire compatice essarily small to enable them to pass along the narrow streets, and their dofielengy iu power is made by their, nyabers. There were bo- tween forty and #fty of them playing on the fire, and the noise and confusion they orinted can h beft-hangined than described The Mutoi- pal fire brigade was also on tad numbering on fall private in uniform. A amber of foreign ers made sundry uforts to pall down soms baild- ings but owing to the hook and ladder company not being on hand their oxortions were of Ulttlo Avail. There was a good showing of mandarins and soldiers, who thongh of but little service in arresting the flamesare of great neo in proronting thiering-Mercury Correspondent.
