DALLAS CITY, ILL.,, June 1o.-The
brass foundry, located a half mile
west Of town and but few hundred
yards from Willow Beach, summer
resort on the river, burned to the
ground, endangering the summer re.
sort buildings.
The foundry was running with a
full complement Of men when the
fire occurred, and the molten metal
was being poured off when the
flames shot up, setting fire to the
roof Of the plant
Mrs. Scott, who lives at Willow
Beach. noticed the flames shooting
out from the root of the plant and
gave the alarm. Although aid was
quickly summoned, the height Of the
fire from the ground made it impos-
sible to throw water upon the flames.
The fire department was then
called, but was unable to extinguish
the fire, because Of lack of facilities
for obtaining water. All movable
goods were removed from the build
ing, which was allowed to burn to
the ground.
The loss is partly covered by in
