day. . The probe has . already been
launched and every clue will be traced
down, the chief stated. j
The other recent fires at the Fir?
Pin Lumber company,' Just across
the street from tbe fire Sunday nighti,
were thought to have been lncendU
ory, but no evidence could be found
tb support .the claims at the time.
Part of the mill was destroyed in thi
early spring. .The second fire at th
plant occurred In June. , , -
Residents of the section bit Sunt
day night think fires were set In
both , the bouses iwhlcb were psrf
tlally burned, and that the woodpllv
fire may also have been tbe work
of an Incendiary. ;
When the big fire was discovered, it
was burning In the center of the lot
away from any walks or. roads from
which a match--or cigarette might
have been-thrown. Supporting the
Incendiary claims Involving the two
houses Is the fact that the wind "as
blowing away from them.. Also, they
were not Immediately adjacent to the
flames. ; Both were empty. ' '
