A long, Jow auto express wagon, without any top, Was proceed- | Ing along Broadway at that point when it suddenly burst into flames, It was a startling spectacle for the throng pour- ing home from the Subway. The two men were on the front seat of the wagon. They were clad in bear- ain ulsters and wore big gauntlet gloves of the same material. In an instant they were enveloped in the flames, which ran like wildfire all over thelr oll-soaked gloves and overcoats. One of the men started to run wildly along the avenue, but had gone only & few feet when he succeeded in caating off his gloves and unbuttoning the flam- other, with more presence of mind, Mpped off his coat and gloves where he stood. The coats and gloves were soon burned up, The front part of the wagon, contain- ing the machinery, was ruined by tho flames before the firemen reached the scene, It belonged to the Oldsmobile Company, of Detriit, was of elguteen harse-power and was valued at $3,300, The accident was caused, it wus said, ark back-firing into the gasoline. The two men, who were- burned se- verely on the arms and head, were Free- man Monroe, of Detroit, and Rowile Barber, of No. 150 Columbus avenue. "They were operating the new wagon rimentally.
