Laborer Is Badly Burned
in Effort TO Extinguish
Flaming Japanning Liquid

A kettle of boiling japanning fluid
caught fire in the varnish room of NJ.
Strauss & Sons leather factory mt
40 Frelinghuysen avenue shortly
after noon today and Hugh Her
ratkz, twenty-five years old. of IS
Hunterdon street, was badly burned
about the arms and legs when he
tried to extinguish the blaze. He is in
St Barnabas's Hospital in a serious
condition.
Herratkz was working in the room
at the time and was startled To hear
a roar and sudden fash as the
liquid ignited. First he tried TO put
out the flames with i bucket OF sand
and then attempted to drag the
burning kettle from the room into
the yard of the factory. The kettle
overturned and spilled the flaming
liquid over his hands and legs.
During this time Herratkz had
made no cutlery, as ne thought he
could get the blaze under control
himself. but when the liquid struck
his flesh he screamed with pain and
several workmen ran to his rescue.
An alarm of fire was turned in from
box PAS. which is in Frelinghnysen
avenue, near the factory. The blaze
was extlnguished with only $50 DAM
age to the room. II was due TO Her.
ratkz's efforts that the other rcept-
tacles in the room, containing
japanning fluid, did not catch fire.
The City Hospital ambulance was
summoned and the injured man was
taken to St. Barnabass Hospital.
The varnish room is in low frame
building apart from the main build
ing, which was not endangered by
the fire.
