streams of water on the flames, which
would start up at intervals in spite of the
fremen Little explosions occurred every
once in a while from escaping gas, the pipes
having been smashed all over the lower
part of the building. the only part that was
left. Citizens were kept block away from
the ruins as pieces of wall were falling
every now ard then and there was danger
that the portion of the wall at the back of
he building and that on the 46th street
side might fall at any time. The bit OF wan

ii might fall with the first stiff breeze. The
wall on the 4IIh street side was about two
stories high. and that i'll front, on Fifth
