Tho fact that the fire had only spread six or eight inches round the bottom of the- ventilator showed that the pumico had smothered it. Had it bosn of cork it would have gone on bximing. As it was, the fir© lent itself readily to be smothered out by sacks, otherwise water would have had to he used, with absolute destruction to half a hold of meat.
