Burned Instead of Given
Poisonous Bath.

III PASO, Texas. March Six
II persons were burned to death and
probably forty others seriously in
jured, several fatally IN a fire late to-
day at the city Jail bathhouse. The
blaze started from "A flash of flame
from large tub Of gasoline and
Kerosene solution used to destroy
germ carrying lice. In their first re-
ports officials attributed the origin TO
the deliberate action of one of the
prisoners in throwing lighted match
in one OF the containers.
More than score of prisoners who
were thoroughly saturated with the
solution were enveloped i'm Flames.
Jail attendants Immediately opened
two exits allowing a number of the
prisoners in the bathroom to escape
although seriously burned.
Surrounding the bath quarters are
rows of cells, mostly filled with pris-
oners The cells adjacent to the bath
were caught in the flames and 1t was
in these that most of the fatalities
occurred.
Volunteer rescuers aided in drag
ging out the victims, many uncon-
scious and badly burned. The fire
department. quartered in the same
building, eXtinguished the blaze be
fore it had spread to other parts of
the jail.
An investigation to determine the
cause of the fire has been ordered by
Mayor Tom Lea.
About fifty unharmed prisoners
were removed from cells ON the same
floor and placed in quarters on the
second floor of the building under
heavy police guard.
