The main shaft pulling the machinery of weave roon No. 2 at the Newberry Cotton mills was wrung in two when the mill started up after dinner yesterday by an iron crow-bar, lodged in the shaft pulley. When the mill started the crow bar went against the ceiling just over the pulley, wedging the pulley, and the power from the engine forced the shaft to give way. The shaft line is below the floor of the weave room, and of course there was no danger to employes. How the crow-bar managed to get placed between the -spokes of the pulley is a mystery which has not yet been solved. A new shaft will have to be put in. REUNION OF DERRICK FAtflLY.
