BLAZE CAUSED ANXIETY.
Serious Conflagration in Pino Drool:
Owing to the Steamers Being Out
of Repair Brown's Planing
Mill Totally Destroyed.
Whnt threatened for a time to be a
very disastrous blaze last evening de
stroyed the planing and diylng mill of
John Brown, on Ash street, nt tho In
tersection o) the Delaware and Hudso
tracks. As It was, a loss of $0,000 was
entailed, $5,000 of which tof-ulted to the
mill and $1,000 to the carpenter shop of
Contractor Chnrles Lord, located on the
second Moor.
Attached to the mill Is a large lumber
yaid and In close proximity are thtee
other largo mills nnd lumber yards,
owned respectively by Ezra Finn &
Sons,PrlceiS.IIowarthand Frank Mover.
No. 0 school closely adjoined on tho
east, and to the south nnd west tho
neighborhood Is ery closely built up.
The fire broke out between the flro
room and drjlng kiln shortly before 0
o'clock, and in a very few minutes the
llatucs had reached and seized hold of
tho main mill building. Fortunately,
they attacked the root first and burned
downward. More fortunate still, theie
was not a breath of wind stirring. Had
these circumstances been unfavorable
Instead of ns they weie, a large, fierce
conflagration would undoubtedly have
resulted, for it was fully half an hour
after tho alarm was given before an
effective stream was tut tied on the
blaze.
The fact that tho Crystal and Gen
eral Phlnney steamers, which are sup
posed to protect that district, are both
disabled Is responsible for the delaj.
The General Phlnney engine was
brought on tho scene, but on nccount
of Its dilapidated condition, could not
be made to do effective work for fully
twenty minutes after being nttnehed t j
tho plug. The Nay Aug steamer was
brought on the scene by the second
alarm, and from the very moment it
was gotten In operation the firemen
began to make headwaj.
The mill building was totally con
sumed, together with the flic room nnd
drying kiln In the iear, but the flames
were checked at the storage room ad
joining the drying kiln and the thou
sands of feet of lumber in the yard
were saved.
Ezra rinn & Sons, whose lumber
yard and store house, Is dliectly across
Ash street, kepti a garden hoso play
ing on the fiont and roof of the build
ing, while the Phoenix Chemical en
gine patrolled tho lumber jard. The
anxiety of the entire nelghboihood was
at the highest tension until the names
gave way to tho energetic but handi
capped efforts of the firemen. A feat
ure of the flro fighting wus the work
of ox-Chief Hlckey, who came over
with his company, the Centurjs, and
took his orders from the new chief
like any other private in the ranks.
Mr. Brown had no idea of how the
ilro originated. Tho mill closed as us
ual at ISO o'clock. Tho flies were
carefully banked, Mr. Biown says, and
nil tho customary precautions attend
ed to. There was no one about tho
mill, Mr. Brown sajs, from the clos
ing hour until tho lire broke out.
The los3 of $3,000 which Mr. Brown
sustained Is complete, as ho carried no
Insurance. Tho building was erected
live j ears ago on leased land
Contractor Lord's loss was pilnclpal
ly in tools and seasoned wood and will
foot up $1,000. The tool chests of seven
of his workmen were in the carpenter
shop and all were consumed, with tho
exception of one, owned by Fred Bartz,
who arrived eaily on the scene and,
dashing through the smoke, shoved
his tool chest out the window,
Tho mill was working light along,
not withstanding tho strike, as was
also Contractor Lord's shop.
