About three o'clock yesterday morning there we 3 an expleaion in one of the agitators in William Lelkin & Coi'a Belmont oil worts , located at Point Breeze. In five * minutes the fire spread over .the works. Ahrms were Bounded , which brought nearly ell the fire department to the scene , bat owing to the scarcity of water , but little headway was made in getting the fire under control. The firemen , knowing it would be Impossible to ex tinguish the flames , devoted them selves to preventing its further spread ing. Several small dwellings were de stroyed. The oil burned all day yea- terday , and will barn out by morniug , provided the wind does not change and send the flames in dlfferant direc tions. The loss will not be over 875- C30 , but there Is a very small inaut- auce on the works. As to its origin , all that could be learned was that It sir-ted in an agitator , lu which vn nrobably one hundred barrels of gno- liv ! > , being agitated before undergoing further refining procc is. The esU ; tor where it ata tied was a wood one , and therefore the flames had plenty of material to work on when they started. Old Sol's Bays. epedal Dispalch to The Be * .
