Resources	DESTRUCTION OF THE HAYMARKET THEATRE BY FIRE. (1871, September 27)., The Hamilton spectator., National Library of Australia, 27 September 1871, 1 We have to record the total destruction of the Haymarket Theatre in Bourke Street by fire. This place of amusement has now been closed for several years, with the exception of a few nights at intervals, when it has been opened for occasional entrainments. At the time of the fire it was under lease to Mr Coppin, also the lessee of the Theatre Royal. Although so rarely open to the public, it was in complete order as a theatre. Its stage was supplied with scenery and fittings; the pit, dress circle, and a gallery were in their usual condition, and the premises were carefully looked after. Those to whom the building is familiar will remember that the establishment consisted of two portions. That fronting Bourke street consisted on the eastern side of Allen’s Haymarket Hotel, and on the Western side (separated from the other by the pit entrance, some 14 ft wide) where ticket offices, &c. The first floor was occupied by the main portion of the Apollo-hall. Behind these front buildings was a courtyard, with a fountain in the centre; but the premises were carried along on each side till they reached the theatre at the back. On the right of this yard were lattice work arbours, fitted with benches and tables, and above was a long covered passage leading to the dress-circle. On the opposite side was a bar, an unused kitchen, and a storeroom in which Mr Allen kept his wines and spirits. Adjoining the latter forum was the staircase leading to the gallery. Above this last range of buildings was a wing of the Apollo Hall. It must be understood that this courtyard led to the chief entrance to the th3eatre. Last evening m(Friday) the hotel was open and doing business, but the rest of the establishment was unused and unoccupied, save by the watchman employed by Mr Coppin to take care of the place. At about 8 o’clock last evening (Friday) the fire was first observed. The watchman of the theatre, Reuben Sweeny by name, was standing at the stage door in Little Collins street, when a boy going past gave him the alarm of fire. Running into the street, he saw smoke issuing form the building he had left, at a point about the middle of its length. He immediately went into the theatre, and on to the stage, where he saw signs of fire in the north-eastern corner, at the point where, on the other side of the party wall, were the kitchen and spirit room. He then got out the two hose with which the theatre was supplied, and, assisted by Mr Lasson, a neighbouring oyster dealer, and Charles Marshall, a stage carpenter (who ran in with him when he gave the alarm), tried to throw water on the burning place. This they were unable to do. The fire spread with extraordinary rapidity, and they had to escape at the back to avoid suffocation. According to Marshalls account, the pressure of water in the hose so sued was very weak. By this time, however, the alarm had been given more fully, and the United Insurance Fire Brigade, under superintendent Hoad, appeared on the scene. Their first place was to carry the hose into the courtyard, but from this they were soon driven away by the increasing flames and smoke. Firemen were also stationed at other points of the building, their endeavours being directed to prevent the flames spreading to adjoining houses. In this work they were speedily joined by the Emerald Hill, Hotham (under Mr Cook) and East Collingwood (under Mr Daskein), local fire brigades. Altogether nine streams of water were directed on the burning premises. Fortunately the united energetic efforts of the fire brigades proved successful, and with some small exceptions the damage was confined within the walls of the theatre and front buildings, stretching from Bourke to Little Collins streets. On the western side a number of houses were closely adjoining the theatre buildings, but a strong nearly south-westerly wind kept the flames from them. On the eastern side were a row of small one-storey market stalls, usually occupied by poulterers, green grocers, and other produce dealers. Those of these shops which adjoined the theatre premises extending from Bourke street to the point level with the courtyard, were saved with little injury; but those actually alongside the theatre were destroyed by the falling of the theatre wall. Beyond these little shops were the open sheds of the Eastern Market, which could not readily catch fire. The neighbouring houses in Little Collins Street, were saved by the southerly wind. Although the progress of the fire afforded one of the grandest spectacles ever seen in Melbourne, it was singularly uneventful. Some six or seven minutes after the first alarm was given, the flams burst through the roof, and tongues of fire issued from the row of ventilating apertures under the eaves. This was in about the middle of the building as before described, but with a speed which could scarcely be told in minutes, so rapid was it, the flames extended through the theatre on one side, and into the Apollo hall on the other, till they streamed out through the windows facing Bourke street. In ten minutes more the iron roof of the theatre fell in with a crash, and a huge volume of black smoke issued forth to be changed in another second to an enormous body of rolling, roaring flames. The wind being high, blew clouds of burning fragments across the street, and but for that interval of space, the houses for a considerable distance must have been placed in serious jeopardy. At this stage the fire was utterly beyond control. It does not, indeed, happen often in aby mans life to see flames of such volume and brilliancy. The whole city was lit up by the glare, and every spire and tower stood out in bold relief, as the reflected the ruddy light. The firemen directed jets of Yan Yean from every point of vantage, but it was obviously not to quench the fire, but to keep the walls as cool as possible. Nevertheless, they managed to subdue the conflagration in the front premises. After the fire had been nearly twenty minutes burning, the upper portion of the eastern wall of the theatre gave way, and fell outwards, crushing a number of the small market stalls before alluded to. Being mostly of wood, they soon caught fire, nut were speedily extinguished. About half an hour after the fire broke out, it was at its height. It then gradually burnt out, utterly destroying everything within the four walls extending the entire length of the establishment, except the bar room of Allens’ Haymarket Hotel, which though little injured by fire, was utterly swamped by water. The Bourke Street front remains but inside, from end to end, is only smoking ruins. The origin of the affair is believe to be, that during the day a fire was lit in the kitchen of the hotel (ordinarily unused) to enable the boys to clean some pint pots.. The fire was left unextinguished, and some hot cinders may have fallen on the “composition” floor, and set it on fire. This would account form a smell of pitch which was said to be observable when the fire was first discovered. It seem that the fire certainly broke out at that particular spot. It should be mentioned, however, that the neighbourhood is alive with rumours as to a previous strong expectation that the theatre was to be burned down on the previous evening. A little girl, named Sarah Anne Brown, the daughter of a neighbour, told Mrs M’Gee, landlady of the Adam and Eve Hotel in Little Collins Street, that the theatre was going to be burnt down that night (Thursday). Fatal Accident at the Fire (From the Herald) About half past seven o’clock this morning (Saturday), two men, named respectively John Jones and ---- Wyatt, were standing amongst the debris in what had been the pot of the Haymarket Theatre. Whilst gazing on the scene of ruin and smouldering ashes, the suddenly heard an ominous kind of cracking indicative of danger, and Wyatt immediately changed his position, and by so doing probably escaped serious injury, or sudden death. Jones, a young managed twenty-three years, residing at Hotham, and a stage carpenter by trade, did not move, and in another moment an iron pillar, or as some state a girder, came plunging down, striking Jones on the head, and crushing him to the ground. As soon as possible a cab was obtained by Constable Baird, who in company with Wyatt, went with the wounded man to the hospital, where surgical aid was at once rendered. The poor fellow, who of course was utterly insensible, was placed on a bed, and his hair was removed with the object of enabling Dr Lawrence to arrive at some conclusions as to the extent and nature of the injuries sustained by Jones, and it then became clear that they were so serious as to give but slight hopes of his recovery. Ice and other strong remedies were applied with promptitude and skill but without avail, as the unfortunate man succumbed to the violence of the injury sustained by him, and died at ten minutes to one o’clock, without having shown a moments consciousness. We understand that the deceased was related to Mr Geo. Loyal, the gymnast. Article: DESTRUCTION OF THE HAYMARKET THEATRE BY FIRE.
