BOY STARTS $4,000 FIRE
Throws Lighted Cracker Into
Hay Warehouse Ito, See
the Engines Come

BOSTON, July 6.-Because a small boy
wanted Ito see the engines come" the
police allege damage estimated at $4,000
was done by fire in the Charlestown dis
trict today. The Boston and Maine rail-
road warehouse No. 25. filed with hay.
was destroyed, and the wagon and car
riage stock factory of E. A. Giliett &
Sons was badly damaged. The fremen
had a hard time to prevent q eonf1asra-
tion, as the roofs Of numerous wooden
dwellings in the vicinity frequently
caught fire, while other nearby factories
were endangered.
James Welch ten years old, was arrest
ed, and the police say that upon being
questioned he confessed that he started
the fire by throwing a lighted frecracker
into the hay in the warehouse. He was
placed in charge of a probation officer and
will be taken into the Juvenile court
later.
