MILFORD LUMBER
PLANT FRIDAY
Jordan Lumber Co. Suffers Loss
of Nearly $4,000 in Their
Double Band Sawmill

Old Town, Me-, April 14.-The double
band sawmill in Milford was complete
ly destroyed BY fire early Friday nsorn-
ing from an unknown cause, entailing
direct loss Of $4,000 to 100000 and
throwing out Of work the crew Of So.
who had only begun work Thursday
noon when the mill began saving for
the season. The loss did not include the
buildings occupied by the boiler and
engine and is partially covered by in
surance.
The mill, which is the one relied up
on by the company for the production
Of the material used in it's extensive
box board plant in this city, was
equipped with two band saws and a
resaw. It operates all through the sea-
son and is one Of the important fea-
lures Of the boxmaking industry, Civ
ing employment to a large crew and
later, when running night and day,
employing almost double its present
force. The work Of putting It into the
best Of condition for the summers

turned on Thursday noon.
About 4.45 Friday morning 1t was
discovered to be on fire. originating
apparently under the mill from an I'M
known cause. An alarm was sounded
and the Milford department turned
out in full force, making valiant ef-
fort to save the doomed building, but
the fire had not only obtained a ire
mendous start, but the firemen were,
it is claimed, heavily handicapped by
an absolute lack Of water pressure
from the B. r. & e. Co. system.
Men who were present when efforts
were made to save the property and
surrounding dwellings, say that there
was absolutely no force at the nozzfes
Of the hose laid by the flremen, who
turned what water was available onto
the nearby dwellings and board piles,
which were prevented from serious
damage by reason Of there being alb
solutely no wind to contend with. Lo-
cal officials Of the B. r. & C. Co. stated
that a break in the four-inch service
pipe to the mill prevented the fire
pressure being Of any use and in fact
made all efforts to supply water
enough for the work ineffective.
