DDftDIfl III! DAIUnUAl;
Our neighboring my of N I
niaska i.ny sintered a very severe
'morning.!
Is, one of
loss early Saturday
when the Kingfalla mill
me largest inanulaeturing con-1
corns of that city, was wiped out i
of existence by tire. The mills'
were one -of I lie largest in this
part of the state and employed a;
large nuniber of people. The!
lit
siruciure was lornieriy used as
the Argo starch works, but when
that company was absorbed by the
trust the citizens of Nebraska
City purchased the works and in.
stalled the alfalfa mills there.
The loss is estimated, by Presi
dent Hanks of the company, at
about $150,000, with from $85,000
to 00,000 insurance. This is a
very lamentable affair and our
neighbors will have the sympathy
of the citizens of IMattsniouth, and
we trust that the works will be re
built on a larger scale than before.
