An oil Tank, Lighted by Boy, Endangers
Valuable Property in Sistersville.
Special to the Register.
Sisuersville, w. Va, November Ga
very serious conhagratiOn was averted
here this afternoon by the prompt ac-
tion of this city's finely equipped fire
companies.
A large $50 barrel tank filled with oil,
belonging to F. A. Sutton, situated just
south of upper Wells street, in the rear
of several dwellings, was discovered on
fire. Soon as the water was thrown on
the oil boiled over and burned that much
more fiercely. Soon after this a large
amount OF the burning fluid commenced
flowing down the run, burning fences,
etc. on its way. A. one place this riyu-
let runs under a dwelling, and the burn
ing oil soon had 1t on fire, but the }. I.
Jones Hose Company got there prompt
". and after hard fighting succeeded in
extinguishing it. At one time things
looked very dubious, and it was thought
that the row of dwellings, along with
the handsome residence of Mr. G.. w.
Stocking. would burn. The fire COM
panies have worked hard ever since the
fire was discovered, and can do nothing
but keep the water playing on the dwell
lings close by, as It is useless to try TO
put out the oil after it had gained such
Roadway. 1t is said some playing youth
set the oil on fire. Loss about $4,000.
