Alarm over forest fires mirroring last year's losses

New Haven May 11 reports from Forest Fire officials warn the spring fire season risks property damage matching last year's. W. O. Filley cites 150000 dollars in standing timber lost and 36000 dollars in buildings and cut timber, with 11000 dollars spent fighting fires. Sparks from engines and careless railroad ties cause about 30 percent of blazes. Nine sentences.
