By the Associated Press. NEWPORT NEWS, Va., December 19.—Four huge frame hangars at Langley Field were destroyed by fire this morning, entailing a loss of mor ithan $200,000. The origin of the fire | is unknown and an investigation will be made by a board of inquiry. One Martin bomber and most of the tools | {being impossible to get them, rapidly did the flames spread. Bullt Several Years Ago. The buildings, about 100 feet |square and towering high in the air, were among the first erected at the flying fleld several vears ago. They Wwere as dry as tinder and soon were a mass of smoking ashes, despite the combined efforts of the Army fire fighters and firemen from Hampton and Phoebus. The fire originated in one of the center buildings and spread to the ! others so rapidly that all four were a blazing inferno a few minutes later. All but one or two machine {housed in the hangars had been re- moved for practice purposes early in the morning, and this probably pre- vented a greater loss, as it was pos- sible to remove only a very little | cquirment from any of the buildings. Consumed In an Hour. The blaze was first seen before 9 o'clock. and the hangars were reduced to ashes about 10 o'clock in spite of the fight made to jsave them. Hundreds of people from Hampton and vicinity rushed to the fire, which could be seen for miles around the countryside, but guards had no diffi- culty’ keeping them beyond _the danger zone after a gasoline tank in the Martin bomber exploded with a detonation which rattled windows in inearby buiklings. Col. Danforth, commanding officer at Langley, has no idea how the fire started. Smoking is forbidden in or near the hangars, but the cigarette { theory is held by many who fought the flames. $11.60 NET SUM OBTAINED BY THREE HOLD-UP MEN Unidentified Partits Seek Lucre by the Footpad Method—Number of Burglaries Reported. shortly Three hold-ups last night netted two {unidentified young white men $11.60.
