Fire started , shortly after the plant had closed and destroyed a quantity of unfinished slock and supplies In a storeroom. It Is possible the blaze was started by spartts from a passing engine, as the building is near a railway. O. H. Wilion, secretary of the company said arrival of fire apparatus was delayed when firemen went to Pratt St. and the Belt Railway instead of St. Clair and Olney, Sts. Wilson also said that If the wind had been blowing In the other dlreotlon the entire plant would probably have been destroyed due to low water pressure and the late arrival of fire apparatus.
