TOM LIN SON Agont. - A $40,000 FIRE Destroys Continuous liar Mill ot i the iEtnn-SUmdarJ AT MINGO JUNCTION PLANT The Company will atOiicc' Rebuild* (hlM Time I'nttiiiK "P ?l Fireproof Structure?About ISO men Thrown out of Employment Temporarily. Insurance Ions is SI.'.OOO, and waft riaccd in Wheeling; Agcnclcs. The Aetna-Standard Iron & Steel to Company's plant, at Mingo Junction, mt sustained considerable loss from Are wt yesterday afternoon. The Are started lm ia the continuous bar mill department, at 1:20 o'clock, and was caused by a hot cobble, which rt^n between the pinions anil set lire to grease ubout this portion >t. of the machinery. The fire spread very ? rapidly, and In a short time the entire continuous mill was In flames, and the ? fire was spreading to the steel plant, but It was checked without any damage in that direction. The continuous bar mill 1b badly, wrecked, the timbers and Mooring being burned and the sheet roof caved in, while part of the brlclc walls have fallen, though the walls In the muln arc still standing. The lire apparatus at Mingo was called Into play, and did good work, but not before the burning roof and timbers had fallen In on the machinery In the mill. General Manager Caldwell and Superintendent "Williams went up at'3 o'clock, and'ordered thut no more water be thrown on the tire, which was still burning, for fear that it would ruin the machinery. The continuous bar mill is near the Cleveland & Pittsburgh tracks, and was formerly the nail factory. It Is 128x375 feet, and has been operated several years. An office was built at one end one year ago and two years ago an engine room was built. The lire gutted these parts of the building also, nothing but the brick walsl remaining. ~ The fire was still burning about-the engine room last night, and no water is allowed to be thrown on It. It Is given out that the machinery Is not nil r (Ininncrpd. nnrl tln? Insut will '!>?? limlilo of $50,000. Work was commenced yesterduy in clearing away the debris, and the walls wero lorn down. -The rebuilding will begin at once, and the building will be erected practically lire-proof. The insurance, which is carried In Wheeling- agencies, aggregates 5110,000 on the entire plant at Mingo Junction. > Of this $28,500 applies to the continuous bar mill, which was destroyed. Insures ance men seen last evening stated their df, belief that the loss by tire would reach $40,000. but that it might go beyond that figure If thtf water thrown on the iy?j lire had damaged the machinery to a greater extent tliun they anticipated, vy The $28,500 Insurance on the burned Ms iniil is divided as follows: Mill building $ T.rrfV) Machinery l!0,000 lleltlng 1.000 Total- $15,500 The building was valued at $25,000, ?j*" and as the Insurance wus only $7,500, ls the loss sustained by the company is $17,COO on this item alone. The $-0,000 insurance on the machinery will certainly cover the loss on that Item, even if the loss ls greater than the Insurance men figure it. They estimate the in?1 surance loss is abAut $15,000 which will be borne pro-rata by the companies carrying the $110.OHO insurance ? oil the entire plant, which are as follows: lioynl, of England $ 10,000 Aetna, of Hartford lO.COO Fire Association, of Philadelphia... lO.COrt Continental, of Sow York 30,000 Union, of England 10,000 Uanoashlre. of England 10,00.)
