COTTON FIRE IN ROCK HILL.
Several Hundred Bales Destroyed
Sunday Night.

Rock Hill, Oct. 12.--Fire broke out
here tonight at 10 o'clock in the CEN
trail section of the John T. Roddey
cotton warehouse and several hun
dred bales of cotton belonging to the
Victoria mills were consumed. The
loss will mount into thousands of
dollars. Full insurance was carried
on the cotton, however. There were
over 900 bales stored in the section
of the warehouse which caught fire,
but a considerable portion of this
will be salvaged.
Heroic work of the city fire de-
partment kept the flames from spread
ing to other sections Of the ware
house, which is located only short
distance from the Southern railway
passenger station. The trestle at the
north end of the station caught fire
several times, but the blaze was easi-
" extinguished. At II o'clock to-
night the cotton is still BURNING, but
the flames are apparently under con-
troll.
