He further asserted this story had
not been confirmed. He seemed disin.
clined to believe it, but said that q
search of the ruins will be made as a
matter of course.
The furniture in two of the homes
was entirely destroyed as the heat was
so intense that no entrance could be
gained. Most of the personal property
in the other houses was taken out be-
fore the flames had reached them. A
number of the occupants complained
of losing paper money which they had
concealed in trunks.
When the fire started the men were
at work in the Bradley quarries. They
quickly left their work and formed a
bucket brigade, but little could De ac-

had to be pumped. A pumped stream
from the quarries was later turned on
the burning mass but this did little

Help was finally obtained from the
Hershey hre company, which arrived
with steam engine A chemical en-.
gine also was sent from Hummelstown.
Only a few streams could be played ON
the flames and, as the greater part of
the row had been destroyed by the time
the fire engines arrived, streams were
thrown ON other nearby buildings and
the flames were kept from spreading
further.
The houses were owned bv Mr.. and
Mrs. Frank Currido and were built
about four years ago. Each was occu.
pied by one family and a number of
poarders. 1t is estimated there were
one hundred persons living in the row,
who were compelled to seek shelter
elsewhere
After the fire was under control il

Seven of the burned houses will have
to be rebuilt entirely, while two others
can be made habitable with little re-
pair work. Another of the houses in
the row remained intact. The homes
are partly covered by insurance. Colo.

NOR of murder is incorrect. He is posi-
