Olivari, Mr. L., whose general merchandise store was formerly known as "SPOTORNO & CO.", furnished the first food for one of the most disastrous conflagrations in the history of Bay St. Louis at about half past four o'clock this morning, as it was here where the fire was given birth. The fire created loses that can and never will be correctly estimated, owing to the vastness of the destructive powers of the angry, rushing flames.
The origin is not known, but there is every indication to believe it the work of an incendiary. Fanned by the strong wind the fire had soon gained considerable headway and it was plainly evidenced that the entire front square was doomed. An alarm was soon turned in and the fire department and our citizens were prompt to respond and to battle the flames. It was a hard struggle, but after repeated efforts all was consumed that was in the doomed path, the fire was controlled. Assistance from New Orleans was telegraphed for and two engines from that city were on the way to the Bay but were sent back when the fire was controlled. Mr. MatFahey is deserving of much praise and credit for his kindness and thoughtfulness in sending his bridge gang to the scene. This assistance was very valuable.
This fire has left more than one penniless and homeless, and the president of St. Stanislaus college is out this morning with a subscription list for the benefit of the unfortunate. The list is headed by the college with one hundred dollars cash. The following is a list of the properties totally destroyed:
L. Olivari, one frame store, and warehouse buildings and two cottages. Valued at $35,000; well insured. Quintini, August, one cottage and small shop building occupied by an oyster dealer and owned by August Quintini, valued at about $2,000; insurance not known. Keller, August, two frame one story dwellings, valued at $10,000; well insured.
"Mulberry Cottage", owned by Charles Sanger and valued at $3,000; insured.
Guerra, R., barber shop, residence and one two-story from building, valued at $5,000; no insurance.
Huber, Mrs., one frame building valued at $1,000; no insurance.
Monti, Mr., building valued at $2,000; not known if covered by insurance.
Keller, August, store with contents valued at $15,000; insured for one-third of value.
Menez, Mrs., three single frame cottages valued at $3,00; no insurance.
Bosetto, Mrs., two single frame cottages valued at $25,000; no insurance.
Belleme, Mrs., two frame cottages valued at $2,000; no inusrance.
Pero, Mrs., Mr. Davis, and A.D. Peirce, one frame cottage each; partly insured.
Yenni, W.H., one story frame building, occupied as a residence and shoe store and valued at $2,000; insured for about half.
THE ECHO, owing to the lateness of the fire as we go to press, is unable to go into more details and to correctly state the total loss, but it is safe to say that, including the above list of properties with stock of the stores, household effects, out-houses & etc., that $150,000 will not cover the damages wrought by the largest fire ever witnessed in Bay St. Louis.

Guisti, Joe-
We are now confronted with the restaurant business, and this is indeed quite a pleasure when one is hungry to step into such neat apartments as those furnished by Joe Guisti for the accommodation of his guests, and when one sits down to the well filled table, where you may eat on the American or European plan, you will at once decide that he gets up a first-class meal, and that, too, on short notice. This is known as the Eagle Restaurant, and Mr. Guisti has come to stay for the summer, and invites all to try his modes of serving oysters, sample his ice cream and drink ice cold lemonade. He keeps cakes and all kinds of confectioneries, and can give you a fine lunch if you have not time to have a meal served. He rents rooms by the day, night, the week or month, and will be found opposite the "Old Reliable Spotorno Store." (SCE 05/20/1893)
