He is conscious but his condition has not greatily altered since yesterday afâ€" ternocn. Arthur Charbonneau in Serious Condition After sesing the bright flash of light and turning in the alarm, Mr. Moran looked back toward Elm street and ccould see no flames. They appeared to have died down momentarily. Mr. Moran ran back to the box, found tie glass in the box already brok°n (from a previous alarm that same eveâ€" ning from the same box), and turned in the alarm.
