BALTIMORE. August 11.-Fire last
night consumed 100000 gallons OF
gasoline and lubricating oil stored In
tanks. tank cars and the warehouse
of the American Oil Co. on Hanover
street. Five firemen were seriously
burned when caught in a series OF
explosions that shook the section
shortly after the fire broke out. Many
more were overcome by smoke.
Over an area of a full city block
flames shot hundreds of feet into the
air and presented a spectacle that
drew 100000 people to the scene. Fire
men were helpless in their efforts to
fight the flames and could do no more
than curtain the area with a wall of
water. Inside eight tanks of gasoline
and kerosene ranging In capacity be
tween 10000 and 10000 gallons. six
tank cars of gasoline and a warehouse
filled with drums of lubricating oil
burned themselves out. The fire will

LEAD IN ALABAMA
Both Had Khan Backing
386 of 1900 Precincts
Report 10000 Votes.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala, August IL
Returns are coming in slow In tne
Alabama Democratic primary ana
527 precincts out of ! 500 in the state
have reported.
Hugo L. Black, candidate for the
Senate, maintained lead of seVefai
thousand over his nearest opponent
John c. Bankhead, while Mayneld,
Kilby and MusgrOve trailed in the or
der named. Black was the reputed
candidate of the Ku KluX Khan,
though a national official of the Khan
said that the order was championlng
the cause of Musgrove because OF his
fight against Senator Underwood. A
split in the Khan was rumored and
the charter was said to be in danger
of being revoked because of the dlf-
ferent political sentiment.
Graves Holding Lead.
Bibb Graves, Khan candidate for
governor, was leading his three OPP
ponents by comfortable margin at
a late hour. Graves brought forth
national issue in the campaign by
charging millionaire newspaper pup
fishers Of Alabama with trying TO
name their man for governor to con-
troll the Alabama Democratic delega-
ton to the next national convention
and support AL Smith.
The returns were:
For Senate: Black. 1898; Bank
head, 6,S4S: kilby. 4,O7S; May1eld,
4,55S; Musgrove, $500.
For governor: Graves, 12,444; Nc
Dowell. 1859; Patterson, S,4S7; Car
michael, 1O,543.
= t,-l
Henry B. Speagall, Ozark, Ala, the
incumbent. was leading his opponent,
y. j. Speight of Dothan, by a wide
majority. Other districts were in
complete.
Few Outbursts Reported.
In most instances the voting was
unmarried by outbursts of feeling.
Aside from charges of assault against
a candidate for sheriff in Sheffield
brought by woman; one clash be-
tween two men there. one charge of
irregularity in an alleged effort to
move a voting box in Mobile and
few other encounters of minor impor-
lance there was nothing of a disturb
ing nature reported. Despite pre-
election day bitterness in many of
the races, the day proved unusually
quiet.
Both Black and Graves are believed
by political observers to have polled
the Majority of the Khan vote in the
State. Black had the Endorsement
of the Alabama Klan in his race for
Underwood's seat while l.. 3. Mus
grove was Endorsed by the national
Khan. Many express belief that
Blacks vote is the reputation of the
national organization by the Alabama
Khan.
