S. H. Gage. Fire in the Veterinary College at Cornell. November loth, in the early morning, the New York State Veterinary Col-lege took fire and the Bacteriological and Histological laboratories situated onthe third floor were completely destroyed. Pictures of these laboratories werepublished in the Journal of Applied Microscopy, Vol. 1, p. The origin of the fire is supposed to have been the extinguishment of thegas owing to low gas pressure in some of the incubators. Upon an increasedpressure the room was filled with gas and ignited by the flame of the incubator,which did not go out. This is simply hypothesis, however. The two pictures show very well the conditions existing Tuesday the laboratory, the twisted girders which supported the roof, and numer-ous people engaged in clearing the wreck or students trying to discover some oftheir lost property. The other picture shows the east side of the buildingbefore the fire was extinguished. The slow burning construction enabled the fire company to hold the flames 1112 Journal of Applied Microscopy to the middle part of the third floor, the two ends of this floor being injuredonly by smoke and water, and the lower floors only by water. Only the build-ing was insured. The material, microscopes and movable furni
