Bridge Partly Burned and Several
Persons Seriously hurned in
The Explosion.
About 2:30 Saturday morning
the people of our city were arous-
ed by whistles blowing and ring-
ing of the fire alarm. The tire
department was promptly out but
discovered the tire to be in the
country south of town and re-
turned to their quarters. Many
hurried on to the scene of the
blaze which they found to emi-
nate from Wilson creek H. & T.
C. bridge. The following is a
true account, a* we learned it,
of the origin and result of the
tire. At 2:05 a. in., two freights
loaded with crude petroleum
bound for Mexico passed through
McKinney. In some manner the
caboose and car containing two
( il tanks left the railing and the
train stopped with them on the
bridge which had taken fire. The
train crew assisted by several citi-
zens went to work extinguishing
