The three-kiln plant of the Anderson Electric Porcelain works, at East Liverpool, O., the third plant east of the Smith Phillips China Co.'s factory burned to the ground July 24th, loss placed at $30,000 and insurance at $20,000. The valves into the kilns from the gas mains had been opened to let all the gas from a low pressure to enter, and suddenly a heavy pressure came on which filled the kilns with flames and set fire to the building.
