FLAMING OIL
Ran Into XIII Won Ku|I From
Exploding Tanks and Threat
aned Much Damage.

New York, May 5.-The Standard
varnish Works at Elm Park, S. l., were
damaged to the extent of 100000 by a
fire which started at midnight and
burned until O'Clock this morning. The
loss is covered by insurance. The fire
Is supposed TO have Been caused by an
explosion OF gas in one OF the COM
panys tanks. Sewn great tanks con-
tanning turpentine ana linseed oil ex-
poded one after another. The turpen-
tine and linseed oil poured in great vol
umes over the ground and into the
waters OF the kill Won Kull and New
ark Bay.
Fire tugs from the Standard Oil
works at Bayonne arrived at Elm Park
not long after the fire started but they
were forced to confine their efforts TO
keeping the burning fluids from float
ing down the kills and setting fire to
ships and boats tied up at different
points. The burning oil repeatedly
swept against the fire boats and they
were in danger of catching fire several
times.
