VULCAN STILL AT IT.

Fire at Nowmarkot.—Thrco Buildings Consumed.

At a quarter to 12 last night the Grebolls . once more rang out their alarming notes, and the lurid glare in tho heavens showed that it was in the neighbourhood of New market, lluin was falling heavily at the time, which deterred many persons from setting .out for the scene j there was also a strong wind, and this, of course, greatly as sisted the flames in their work of destruc tion. The Fire Brigade mustered at their station, but the fire being beyond city limits they did not go to it; but the Salvage Corps, under Captain Field, lost no time in making for the scene, and on approaching Newmarket it was seen that the Royal George Hotel was the starting point of the fire. Shortly after the outbreak tho Par nell Firo Brigade were at work with their hose reel, but all they could do was to con fine their efforts to protecting adjacent buildings. The Royal George Hotel, a structure of about 1-1 rooms, was soon re duced to the ground, and in tho meantime the flumes had caught tlio bakery and dwelling of Mr Hamilton, and the Police Station, occupied by Constable Graham and family, ulao speedily took fire. Thero was now a danger that the woodyard and stables of Messrs Hammond and Byron would share the same fate, but owing to the exertions of the Brio-ade, and tho removal of a small office and other woodwork between, this was averted. Had the stables taken, nothing could have saved the Newmarket Hull. At half-past ono all danger of the flames spread ing was at an end, and consequently the tire soon burnt itself out. Narrow Esoapo of Inmates. Owing to the suddenness of tho outbreak, tho inmates of the hotel had a narrow escape. Mr VV. H. Corbett was the first to givo tho alarm, and he at once rushed upßtairs to arouse thoso there. These were: Mrs Corbett, jun., Miss Corbett, Agnes Brown, and Messrs 1. . Feather ston, and Perm, and the bailiff, Thomas Heywood. Most of the men, ns also Mrs Corbett, jun., and Miss Corbett, had to get out of the windows on to the verandah with out waiting to dross. Mr Corbett, in helping Miss Brown out of her bedroom, got burned about the hands and face ; and the girl herself received several burns. Mr Corbett and Miss-Brown were taken to the houso of Mr Gunning, whoso house is closo to the hotel site, and Dr. Coom having been sent for, shortly afterwards arrived and dressed the burns. Tho Origin. Nothing can be determined as to the origin of the firo, but some singular circum stances have come to light. Edward Hope, although serving in tho bar at the timo of outbreak, can give littlo information as to its origin, and could not say whether it oc curred above or below. When he went to the back tho kitchen was in flames. Mrs Corbett, sen., states that some time pre viously she had taken a candle up to ono of the bedrooms for the use of one of tho gen tlemen, but sho could not say whether he bad used it or not. Sho could givo no further information about the firo. The billiard - marker, Richard VVil liams, was also in ignorance as to the origin of the fire, or where it broke out. The proprietor of the hotel is Mr Odium, who has given a leaso of it to Mr Jagger, brewer. Mr William Henry Corbett is tho licensee, but some difficulty, it is stated, „nd arisen betweon him and Mr Jagger, who bad placed Mr Thomas Hoywood, as bailiff, in charge of the houso, with a. view of transferring the license to him, and Mr Corbett was to vacate tho hotel with his family this morning. An application had been made, yesterday, to Mr F. G. Clayton, Chairman of the Now markot Lioonsing Bench, for a transfer of the license to Hoywood, and tho Committee, it was understood, were agreeable to the transfer, so soon as tho necessary formali ties were completed. Something had been said in reference to effecting certain repairs at the hotel, and Mr Odium had notsfully made up his mind as to whether it would not be better to erect a new building. The Insurances. The total insurances amount to about £2,250. The Royal Georgo Hotel was insured in the Norwich Union for £1,000, Mr Jagger having taken out a policy for £800, while Mr Odium, the owner, held a further policy of £200. Re insur ances bring the Norwich Union loss down to about £400. They had re-insured with _c Victoria for £400, and with tho United for £200. The Victoria in turn reinsured £150 with tho Fire Insurance Associa tion. The stock and furniture of the hotel were covered by a policy of £Gol> in the National, £250 of which is insured in a private company. Hamilton and Byron's offico, which was pulled down and will cost about £20 to erect, was insured for £25 in the National. The South British is interested to tho fol following extent:—lt holds £300 on Ham ilton's bakery, £200 on tho bakehouse, stable, loft,' &c„ and £160 on the cottage occupied by Constable Graham. Only a portion of the furniture from the police station was saved. Mr Hamilton iB a heavy loser, for although the buildings were insured by the owner, tho stock was wholly uncovered by insurance. Mr F. G. Clayton is tho owner of tho bakehouse, cottage, &o. Incendiarism Suspected.. Strong suspicions of incendiarism aro en tertained. We learn to-day that the injuries to Mr Corbett, licensee of tho hotel, are so serious that his medical adviser will not permit him. to be disturbed, r - "■ • ' • The girl Agnes Brown, who was severely burnt about the back, was taken, to tho Hospital, where she was, we have.ascer tained, doing very well this afternoon.

The s.s. Hinomoa arrived in tho Manukau at 10 o'clock this morning, after a tedious and stormy trip, from Wellington, bringing with her as passengers the Premier (Major Atkinson) and his son, tho Hon. E.

POLITICAL ADDRESS BY MR WAKEFIELD.

(lIV TKLECIRAMI.— PRESS ASSOCIATION.)

CItItISTCiiUROH, this day. At Loeston last night Mr Wakefield ad dressed a crowded mooting in tho Town Hall. Ho claimed that ho had first made a dead set against further borrowing and ad vocated economy in the public oxpendituro. Ho accused the Government of deliberately sotting the North against the South by tho grain tariff, and blamed them for not coming sooner beforo the public with a policy. Ho considered their policy unsatisfactory, and that federation and land tenure woro not questions to bo discussed now. Ho had a notion of what the Government meusuro for Civil Service Reform was to be, and ho did not liko it. Its object was simply to deprive the succeeding Government of patronago, after the present Government exer cising it for seven years. Tho pro fessions of a desire for economy matle by the Government were evidently in sincere, from the fact that under the Bank ruptcy Act a number of new officials were appointed. He thought the coming sossion likely to give greater cause for shame than the last, which was saying a good deal. The speeches of Sir Georgo Groy had not inspired confidence in him as a leader of the people, and ho (Mr Wake field) was entirely opposed to the principles enunciated by Sir George Grey. Taking the unearned increment was nothing else but wholesale robbery. He did not agrco with Mr Montgomery's taxation of absen tees and large landholders, but ho wished that half of the British peerage would follow the example of the Duke of Man chester and Lord Lyttelton. Ho hoped the colony wou'd try to get out of its present difficulties honestly and wisely, and believed there would be plenty of men of experience and honesty of purpose willing to come forward and restore tho colony. Of Sir Julius Vogel ho desired to speak with every delicacy. If Sir Julius got into Parliament he was likely to take a prominent part, and his first proposal would be to plungo the colony further into debt. He hoped this would not be accepted by the people. He could quite imagine a politician saying, "Let us have booming times." In four years the Panama Canal will bo open, and all will go swimmingly. It was nothing else but gambling, and he counselled tho people rather to bear the hard times than discount the future good times, which would come eventually. Sir Julius was en titled to a fair field and no favour. He had always opposed Sir Julius politi cally, but was not going to be one of those who would hound him out of the colony. He was not going to propound any policy, but intended to identify himself with men of moderate views and disinterested motives, and he believed there would be a large party in the House who would take up the same position. Ho did not intend to take part in tho impending struggle for office. A unanimous vote of thanks was ac corded him at the close of his speech, which lastod oyer two hours.
