BLAZING OIL DEFIES
EFFORTS OF FIREMEN
Hundred Thousand Dollars a
Day Going Up in Flames.
MUST BURN ITSELF OUT
FIVE KILLED AND MANY IN
JURED IN THE EXPLOSIONS.

Philadelphia, Aug. 20.-The fire which
began yesterday afternoon at the works
of the Atlantic Refining company at
Point Breeze in the southwestern sec
ton of the city. is still burning fiercely
tonight, and Chief Baxter Of the city
fire department has given up hope Of
saving any of the company's property.
The one hope Of the cOmpany's officials
and the firemen was in their ability to
pump oil from the tanks not yet
reached by the flames into reserve
tanks in an isolated section Of the yard.
An explosion late this afternoon car
ried away the pumping machinery, and
nothing remains now, apparently, but
to permit the cOnfiagratiOn to burn un-
til all the oil is consumed
It is believed tonight that the five
lives lost in the explosion last night
complete the list
The Dead.
John McCullom, engine.
James Eal1eS, engine company 40.
John Daugherty, truck company No
Frank Davis, truck company No. 9.
Alexander Timmers, an employee Of
the Atlantic Refining company.
In the explosion which occurred this
afternoon fifteen persons were injured
pitfalls, and about forty others were
treated on the scene by the ambulance
surgeons.
Briefly, the story Of the fire may be
thus summarized All Of those report
ed as missing after the explosion last
night have been accounted for The
roll of injured amounts to more than
1O0. Many Of these are trivial cases,
not taken to hospitals A few are Sc
rioUS and may prove fatal.
The fire is still raging. and is eating
up oil at the rate of 100000 a day. ac-
cOrding to the estimate Of President
Lloyd of the Atlantic Refining COM
paDy. Firemen and officials are pow
erless.

The cOOpeTage shop has been swept
away, and in its destruction forty men
narrowly escaped death. The tanks of
benzoine are going. EaTthwOrks have
been thrown up to keep the Schuyll1in
river from becoming flooded with blaz-
ing oil.
The fremen say they are working in
the dark. There is danger all around
them. they say, and they do not know
where the danger spots are.
The loss can only be estimated Of
ficials of the company refuse to make
any statement as to the quantity Of
oil. benzoine and naphths. contained in
the various tanks already destroyed.
and those that cannot escape destruc-
ton. Insurance men and hTemen early
today said the loss would not be less
than S50e coo. but since then great
quantities of refined petroleum and
benZOine have been consumed. and sew
erai tanks have been rendered useless
by the flames.

higher. Not for many day has there
been anything approaching the excite
