A blaze that enveloped a battery of stills and resulted in a certain amount of damages and the holding up of temporary operations of one battery was visited the Sinclair Oil Refining company this morning about 3:00 o'clock at the East Chicago plant.

An official of the Sinclair company said that there was no one injured, and that while the source of the fire had not been determined, that such periodical fires were usually caused by still combustion.
