FIRE ON A LINER.
OUTBREAK IN THE BUNKERS, DIFFICULT TO LOCATE. —— 4 By Telegraph.—Press Association. Christchurch, Last Night. The Federal steamer Devon, which wai held up by heated bunkers on Monday is now on fire in the bunkers. The Lyttelton fire brigade had three leads of water on at 7.30 to-night, but little can be done towards finding the seat of the fire until the coal is discharged. The work of discharging is very slow owing to dense smoke and fumes. The Devon is fully loaded and was on the point of sailing for Home when the lire was discovered in the bunkers.
