Big BLAZE AT OIL MILL
THE DAWSON COTTON OIL COM

Flames Started In Linters Room

Plant Was Endangered.

Flames Started in Linters Room
and Burned Rapidly. The Entire
Plant Was Endangered.
The largest Are that Dawson has
had In several years occurred Thurs
day afternoon about 3 o'clock, when
blaze was discovered in the lint
room of the Dawson Cotton Oil Co.
The plant being located nearly half
a mile from the business section OF
the city the flames gained considera-
BILE Roadway before the fire depart
ment arrived on the scene, and it
took hard work to check them.
The fire was confined to the lint
room, but it took one hour to sub
due the flames, which did damage to
the amount of $4,000 to 100000, as
estimated by Mr.. George G. Riley,
the manager of the oil mill. The loss
is fully covered by insurance. The
origin of the fire is unknown, but Is
supposed to have been caused by a
match in the seed or friction in some
of the machinery.
The lint room is located next to
the room where the oil is pressed
from the seed, and had the fire got
there the entire plant would have
been destroyed.
The oil mill is located near the
right of way of the Central railroad,
and the west-bound passenger train
from Macon was held at Dawson 81
minutes on account of fire hose be-
ing across the track.
