Faulkner Mill Fire Throws 100 Out of Work-strons Evidences of h. cendiarism-Third WooIen Mill Fire in Three Years.

The fire which destroyed the Faulk- ner mill early Sunday morning has thrown over 100 hands out of employ ment and has cast a gloom over the borough. This is the third woolen in dustry in this town which has been wiped out by fire in less than three years. None has been rebuilt and there is little prospect of the present plant being rebuilt.
 Louis Feddler boss dyer at the the fire. He had several important formulas and recipes for mixing dye Stuffs burned and some of them he is unable to replace. MT. Faulkner has not yet made any plans for the future and probably will not until the insurance is adjusted. There is a gen. eral feeling in the community that the fire was incendiary The opinion is based principally upon the peculiar manner in which the fire was discov- cred. The fire was bursting through the windows of the picker room and at the same time there was a brisk blaze in the finishing room which was in the lower end of the wooden build ing fully 175 feet from the picker room which occupied the second floor of the stone building. Michael Hanni- fan, the night Watchman. is unable to give a satisfactory explanation of how or where the fire originated. To him the fire seemed to be everywhere al once and he did not wait for cer- emony when he discovered it and did not get a chance to ring the mill bell to give the alarm.
