VUICANlZINC COMPANY'S
PLANT BURNED OUT
Fire Which Broke Out About Half
Past Eleven Last Night Destroys
Plant And Burns Many Tires
Company Expects to Resume In
Short Time.

A fire, believed to have started
from spontaneous combustion, was
discovered about half-past eleven
O'Clock last night in the plant of the
Cambridge Vulcanizing Company,
and before the flames were extin-
guished, the machinery of the COM
pany had been almost completely de-
stroyed, and about one hundred tires
In the place were practically destroy
ed. The fire started in one corner OF
the room, where a large number OF
tires were piled up, and as there had
been no fire in that portion of the
building, the only explanation that
the proprietors can think of is that
it resulted from spontaneous COM
bustion.
AS there were but few persons on
the street at that hour of the night,
the fire had made considerable head
way when discovered, and by the
time the alarm had been sounded,
and the f1remen reached the scene,
practically the entire contents OF the
room were destroyed. The firemen
soon got the blaze under control and
prevented the building from being
entirely burned.
The loss is estimated at about
$500 or $500 on the machinery and
tires, and about $500 on the build
ing. Messrs. Frank Fountain and
Earl johnson, the owners, stated
that they had about 60 tires in the
shop for repairs and about rs or 30
new Sterling tires, for which they
had the agency. In the corner where
the fire broke out there were about
Ok ~ %hoco firoS and all Of them but
3 were burned up, while the three
recovered had been damaged to such
an extent as to render them useless.
To representative of this paper
they stated this morning that they
would resume business just as soon
as they could get the necessary ma
chinery, and that in the meantime
they had completed arrangements
for taking care of the repairs for the
tires which they have already sold.

BALTIMORE MERCHANTS
TRAVEL IN HARD RAIN
Visit Berlin, Snow Hill, Pocomoke
And Princess Anne, But Did NOT
Reach Crisfield on Account of The
Bad Roads.

Salisbury, Md, Oct. 19.-Through
a drenching rain and over mud ana
sandy roads, the Baltimore trade
booster tourists today pushed their
way through Wicomico. Worcester
and Somerset counties in quest OF
the trade and friendship OF the peo-
pie of this section of the Eastern
Shore. The tourists made four i'm
portant stops and in each place were
given a warm welcome and an infor-
NAL reception by leading business
men. Berlin, Snow Hill, Pocomoke
City and Princess Anne were visited.
Crisfield had to be eliminated from
the itinerary on account OF the bad
condition of the roads.
In Pocomoke City. which was
reached about 2 o'clock this after
noon, and where the party took din
ner, a new charge was laid at the
door of the wholesale houses OF Bal
timore as one reason why at least
one merchant of Pocomoke was not
patronizing a certain wholesale
house. The statement was made by
q prominent business man that In
some of his dealings he had noticed
fragrant lack of courtesy on the
part of the employees OF a certain
Wholesale house when he entered the
place to buy a bill of goods.

HOODOOED sFILLUM' NEAR
DISASTER FOR THIRD TIME

The 11.40 Pennsy train bound west
yesterday very nearly had passenger
who was determined never to let Gov.
ernor Brumbaugh, or Secretary Ball,
or Chief Engineer Uhler of the High
way Department, as well as half a
hundred other distinguished citizens,
see him in the flesh again. AS things
turned out the 11.40 went west with

"fillum" showing the dedication of the
William Penn Highway Easton con-
crete link very narrowly missed show
ing. And Secretary MEL James of
the William Penn association at noon
looked like he had worked a 36-hour
turn in a rolling MILL
According to the William Penn sec
retary the Easton "fillum'' is hoo
dooed. IT was originally scheduled for
a private showing for the Governor
and Highway Department officials in
the House chamber at the Capitol. All
arrangements, had been made = the
picture machine installed, the screen
hung, and everything. Governor
Brumbaugh and other officials were
ready. Alas! The "fillum" was lost,
nor was it found for two days. That
was week ago last Friday. The
next time the secretary issued no in
vitations, fortunately for him. But he
intended showing the picture to the
school teachers in institute last week
and when everything was ready he
thought of asking the Governor over.

Unfortunately, while the film was on
hand and the screen hung, the trunk
containing the picture machine was
locked, the regular operator had dis
appeared and the substitute couldn't
open the cases.
Yesterday morning the films were on
hand, the machines ready, and the
audience sitting in the Majestic the
ater. The showing was scheduled for
11.30. At 11.28 the operator, who had
been in readiness at lilo, was abso-
lutely missing. A substitute had been
secured by 1929. but the Majestic

back-stage might have witnessed Sec
retary James and Manager Hopkins
of the Majestic pacing up and down,
doing what is popularity known as
muttering imprecations. At 11.31 the
secretary was observed nervously in
specting a time table. At 11.31k " he
was about ready to notify Secretary
Tom Lynch of the Water Commission
that the latter's Market street house
would shortly be shy a tenant. AT
1132 Manager Hopkins and the sec
retary nervously tottered toward the
top gallery to see what the suboper-
ator was doing. There they saw that
the sub had broken the lock on the
booth and was ready to proceed. At

event was being screened-at last!

She was experiencing for the first

not confused, indeed she could talk
more logically than ever, but the check
that she usually put upon her speech,
the restraint that made her reticent
