COAST RESORT VISITED WITH FIERCE FIRE IN ITS BIG MILLS - ASTORIA READY WITH HELP LOSS $25,000, WHOLLY INSURED, Yesterday afternoon about 2 o'clock a fire broke out in one of the dry kilns of the Seaside Lumber & Manu facturing Co., at Seaside, and for a while there was ,grcat danger of an nihilation of the fine plant, but the damage was confined to two dry kilns and the sacrifice of about $25,000 of lumber, wholly insured. ! President Ilenninnrer, of the big concern (and also mayor of the city), was on the mill grounds when the fire broke out and lent his best en ergies to its subjugation. The plant owns its fire apparatus, and has the whole Pacific Ocean to draw upon, with plenty ot pumpinir pressure and hydrants and nearly 100 men busy at the mills. The fire had a very ugly i look about it for a while, and Mr. HenninKcr irot into communication with Fire Chief Foster, of this city, who, with the instant consent of May or Wise, had two of Astoria's finest pieces of fire-fighting machinery al ready to ship out on the run, with an engine and flat car in readiness promptly placed at the disposal of the Mayor and Chief for the emer gency by General Agent G. B. John son of the A. & C. Railway here; but before a start was made, the happier word came that the fire was under controd, and help was not needed. Mavor Hennincer, speaking later in the day to C. J. Curtis, of this city, desired him to convey to the Mayor and Chief here, the grateful thanks of the citizens of Seaside and of the company at interest, for the quick and generous response, with which their trouble was met up here. The lumbering company was for tunate in having plenty of hose and hydrants on the grounds, and heavy water supply behind them' along with host of devoted men who fought hard and fast and intelligently at a very critical moment and saved the great plant, which js counted among the best af the lower end of the Co lumbia. . At one time during the blaze, the boiler room of , the plant was badly scorched and the kilns on the other side were saved with extreme dif ficulty; but men and water superven ed and all further danger and loss was averted. fa 7Hd ""f' V, schloss, Bros, a co.
