DESTRUCTION OF THE LOCKPORT GLASS WORKS BY
FIRE.--Last week we announced the complete destruction
of the Lockport Glass Works, and it is now our
unpleasant duty to chronicle the destruction of the main
building by fire. On Thursday morning last, the
wood in one of the drying ovens caught fire, and owing
to the dryness of everything adjoining and around, the
flames enveloped the entire building in a very few
moments. Efforts to stay the flames were useless
and the building was entirely consumed. The ovens
and ovens were not materially damaged. The
proprietors are now engaged in replacing the building,
and it is their intention to be able to resume business
within ten days from the time of the fire.--Lockport
