Three Large Warehouses In London's Industrial Center Gutted.
London, March 16. Three big warehouses in the Finsbury district, London's industrial center, were gutted by fire, causing damage to the amount of about $1,000,000.
Starting in Featherstone street in the premises of Cox & Co., hat manufacturers, the flames, fanned by a strong wind, jumped the street and enveloped the establishment of the Maxine company, wood turners, and spread to the adjoining warehouse of Green & Co., shoe manufacturers. Owing to the strength of the wind it appeared for a time as though the whole block of adjoining property would be destroyed, but after three hours' hard work the firemen gained control of the situation.
