alone In the plant.
The flames spread to four near
by derricks, which were destroyed.
The fact that several thousand
barrels of crude oil were shipped
from the field a few hours before
the explosion, prevented a much
more serious fire, officials of the
refinery said.
Two hundred thousand barrels
nr rrnrlA oil and 300 barrels of
gasoline were consumed by the
blase. The fire was brought un
der control only after all avail-
apparatus had been sum
