Philadelphia, Aug. 21.-Five persons
are known to have been killed by the

pany, in all about so men. were at
work in the pumpinghouse drawing off
oil from the burning tanks. The
flames shot high in the air and the
pumphouse was almost completely de-
molished. The firemen who had been
playing streams on the other tanks
then directed their attention to the
rescue Of the men who had been i'm
plisoned in the pumpinghouse. 1t was
nearly an hour before the men could
be reached. Meanwhile streams of
water were pouring on the pumping
house. The firemen turned their at.
tention to the rescue of those who
were in the ruins. Five bodies were
recovered and sent to the morgue but
only three of them could be Identified.
Two bodies were roasted to q crisp
and so blackened that 1t was impossi-
BILE to tell whether they were those of
white or colored men. None of the II
injured men taken to the hospital Is
seriously injured.
Since early morning the flames have
spread to FIVE additional tanks, max.
ing IL that have been destroyed. The
fire is by no means under control and
although most Of the tanks not yet
on fire are more or less isolated from
those that are burning there is a con-
slant fear of the flames reaching some
of those that have yet escaped. AL
most exclusively the firemen are pay

but are devoting their attention to
