As soon as possible the alarm was sent to the Department and the firemen responded quickly, joining forces with the factory employe and confining the. fire to the boiler room, which in the nature of the case, was entirely con sumed. Chief Engineer John A. Morris as quickly as possible stopped the machinery and put the pumps to work to save the boilers. By that presence of mind and the splendid work of the firemen the boilers were uninjured, though a large amount of the steam fittings were more or less damaged. President J. A. Springer and Gen eral Manager L. EL Simmons, of the company, said last night that the dam age will not exceed $1,000, which is fully covered by Insurance.
