Not until $50 yesterday morning did
the firemen leave the Mckinney factory.

by the intense cold and by the fact that
the trains on the Rio GTande Western
track three different times cut the hose
stretched across the rails. This allowed
the fire to gain Roadway and was the
cauSe of several OF the firemen getting
fingers frOst-bitten during the night. Not
one but had frosted fingers when they
left the place Yesterday morning.
