Blaze at Kanesas City Candy Factory Burns Site to Ground
A large fire at the Sluggins Candy & Cracker Co factory on St Louis Avenue, Kansas City, destroys the building and contents. About sixty workers, mostly women and girls, escape amid chaos as flames reach the second floor and alight storage, with insurance covering the loss. No one injured, managers seek new orders and local branches reorganize after the Christmas rush.
