LUMBER DESTROYEDMILLS
TO BE REBUILT.
Georgetown, April 21:?The plant
of the Atlantic Coast Lumber Corporation,
said to be x>ne of the largest
lumber plants in the world, having a
capacity of one-half million feet per
day, was almost completely destroyed
by fire, which broke out this morning
about 5 o'clock. Fanned by a
strong wind from the north,which increased
as the fire made headway, it
seemed that nothing in the pathway
of the flames could escape. One of
the mills, which was located north of
where the fire commenced,and another,
which was not directly in the direction
the wind was blowing,remain
standing. Two mills, together with
the power house and two dry kilns,
and a vast amount ot lumoer, aoout:,
ten million feet were destroyed. The I
loss is estimated at about one-half!
million dollars and is said to be com-!.
pletely covered by insurance.
It miffht have been a serious prop- j

were employed in these mills as well
as to business generally icGeorgetown
and vicinity, as this was the chief industry
in this section,but the management
has announced that the work of
rebuilding will be started at once and
that the two mills which were not
burned will be run day and night.
Owing to the fact that most of the
pumps were put out of commission
during the early stage of the fire
very little could be done to check the
flames; however, the plant of the
Dupont Powder company, which
manufactures alcohol out of sawdust,
was saved by heroic work on the part
of the management and employees
of that plant. Of coarse, the fire
attracted great attention and a large
crowd of people, in fact, every one,
who could possibly get out, turned
out to witness it.
