II was discovered and nine Of the em-
ployes realizing that an explosion
might occur at any time, seized the
hose reel. and In a short time had a
stream OF water playing on the fire,
The car containing the powder was
backed away from the burning caboose
but the flames had already reached It
and had licked their way through the
end. BY remaining brayely at the hose
and throwing constant stream on the
fire the men succeeded in putting II
out. The flames must have reached
within twelve inches OF the powder and
the fact that no explosion occurred Is
a matter Of marvel
Before the fire was completely out
