High Point Safe and Table Company
Goes Up in Smoke-Origin Unknown
Loss $4,000.
| Tuesday morning the splendid 100000
plant of the High Point Safe and Table
| company, located on Manning street,
was totally destroyed by fire, entailing
loss of approximately $4,000. The
| building was two stories and contained
much manufactured goods at the time
of the fire. The low water pressure was
responsible for the big loss. Something
or somebody was bad at fault right at
the very time full water pressure was
needed.
Within so feet of the burning build
ings were the tanks of the Standard Oil
company, but fortunately a light wind
famed the flames in an opposite direc-
ton. Other buildings close by were in
imminent danger and the work of the
firemen was confined principally in an
attempt to save them and the office of
the doomed factory. Another unfortu-
gle Hose company (Northside) through
an accident, from reaching the fire un-
til several minutes had elapsed. The
firemen did good work in trying to save
property, against odds.
Messrs. j. w. and J. A. Clinard and |
W. 6. Munyan are the principal stock !,
holders. Mr.. j. w Clinard, who is the
active manager of the burned plant, is i
at the hospital seriously, ill.
A statement from Superintendent
York says that there was between so |
and 80 pounds of pressure at the time
of the fire, but on account of the several !
streams it was cut down considerably.
Evidently the pressure was low, very
low and this should not happen again.
