Saginaw, Mich., May 21.-—Saginaw was yesterday visited, by the worst baptism of fire it ever experienced. It W8g first discovered in the mill plant of Sample <fc Camp, on what is known as the middle ground, south of the Bristol-street bridge, just before 7 o'clock, and owing to the strong southeast gale prevailing, spread rapidly, setting fire to and destroying 700,600 feet of lumber on the mill docks owned by Brown & Byan, valued at 080,000. The Bristol-street bridge next caught and a portion of it was destroyed. Thence the flames leaped to the east side just below Bristol street and north of the city, where are located a large number of buildings, including hose house No. 8; thence to Winter’s ice house; all the residences on Tilton street, and on both sides of Washington and down to Holden were quitkly licked up. Then the sparks were carried across the old bayou into the premises of the George F. Cross Lumber Co., the planing mill, lumber in the yard land a dozen tenement houses melting like snow. Next came the Allington-Curtis Manufacturing Co.’s extensive plant and Passolt's old soap factory, all of which were wiped out. Here the fire struek Jefferson avenue. and in an hour some of the finest residences in the city were in ashes, the sweep being clean north to Emerson street, where the fire continued eastward, south of and along Emerson street out toward the city limits.

The patients were all removed from St. Mary's hospital, which was in extreme danger for a time, but was sayed.

The fire departments of those places arrived by special train and did grand work with the local department. The citizens, assisted with well-organized bucket brigades. The battle was kept up vigorously, and by 8 o’clock the flames seemed to be under control, although a number of buildings were stiU burning.

Sullivan started north in the face of the fire and by some chance escaped. He is severely burned, but will live. Edward Roorbacher started east and got about twenty-five rods away before caught. Mulholland started west and got about the’ same distance. The remaining eight stayed too long and took refuge in a well about twenty feet deep. The top curb of the well burned and the timbers fell on the men huddled in the well, literally cooking their heads, the remainder of their bodies being under water. A rescuing party tried to get the bodies out of the well Saturday, but it was caving, so th« effort was postponed until yesterday morning, when the recovery was effected. A large force of men is still scouring the adjoining country to make sure no other unfortunate has been overlooked. The camp employed sixty men. The remaining fifty were near the green timber and those escaped. The property loss is not very great. Forty hogs, three horses, the camp buildings, tools etc., tells Mr. Sands’ loss.
