ployes discovered the place on fire

with the fire department by tele-
9h3ue. The first knowledge Of the
condition was when the whistle OF
the Silver Top sounded the alarm
The flremen called central who
lould not give any information about
the location and the whereabouts Of
the danger was only placed when
one Of the men ran up into the

three 25 h. p. transformers standing

received when Superintendent F W
