ber were destroyed. Joseph Rose.
president of the firm, estimated
damage at 100000.
Score of Forest Fires.
| Elsewhere, score Of forest fires
whipped by strong west wind
swept woodland areas in West
lern, Central and Southern Mary
land.
Four children of Mr.. and Mrs.
Stanley Peugh were trapped in
their small home in a blaze that
firemen blamed on an oil stove
explosion. The parents, visiting
nearby atthe home of Mr.. Peugh's
brother, rushed to the scene.
AS Mr.. Peugh circled the house
trying to find an opening in the
wall of flames, 2-year-old Patricia
