VALUABLE PLANT IS
DESTROYED BY FIRE
Fire IK'imrlnienl t' imble to Save
Milling Works hut Prevent
Sptvad of Flame
Fire recently destroyed the plant
of the Hastings Milling company at
Hastings, causing a loss of 75,000.
The llames were llrst discovered
shortly after U) o'clock, in the mill
engine room. The entire Hastings
fire department responded to the
alarm, and eight streams of water
were played upon the blazing build
ings, but the plant was a complete
rum in an hour. The efforts of the
flre department were successful In
preventing the spread of the tlames
to a lumber yard to the north, and a
freight depot south of the mill.
Two elevators containing 25,000
bushels of wheat, and leased by the
E. Stockham lirain company, burned
to the ground. The elevators had
been licensed under the new ware
house bill passed by the last legisla
ture, aud all of the grain losses will
be paid in full.
The mill property, worth about
$32,000, was burned except for a
steel storage tank and the small of
fice building. 0. H Hedge, presi
dent of the milling company, was un
able to say this morning whether or
not the plant would be rebuilt.
The twenty-five employes of the
mill and elevators were able to get
out of the buildings safely.
Fire a year ago in the same plant
caused a loss of $30,000.

Omaha ami Lincoln wholesale con
cents contemplate establishment
of distributing stations
Omaha and Lincoln wholesale
houses are said to be figuring on the
establishment of a number of branch
houses in the west in order to give
their customers the advantage of bet
ter freight rales.
A new classification of rates is soon
to be established , by order of the In
terstate Commerce commission, and
it will b; necessary for the wholesale
concerns to maintain branch stations
! if they are to hold their trade.
i The commercial organizations of
j several western Nebraska towns are
I already getintg busy In an effort to
(secure the locations of one or more
or these branch houses and Alliance
being so favorably located, ought to
be able to induce the managers of the
big concerns to select this city as the
proper location for their branch
houses.
The rapid development of western
Nebraska and the growing import
ance of trade in this territory makes
a strong argument In behalf of Al
liance In this connection. The rail
road facilities are adequate, giving
to any wholesale house an excellent
outlet in any direction.
If these branch establishments are
to be located, and the Omaha and
Lincoln papers say they are. It is In
order for a concerted movement In
behalf of the interests of Alliance.

which appeared certain at that time.
Passenger traffic through this city
was also immensely heavy. The
trains carried many extra passenger
coaches and each train had three
and four baggage cars. Passengers
getting on at Alliance had difficulty
in finding seats. Doubtless many

were so hasty In getting to their
