Fire destroys large St Louis foundry complex
About eleven o'clock yesterday a blaze gutted the Rollin Miiland foundry of Hersison & Valle in northern Saint Louis. The wood buildings burned rapidly, about 160 by 134 feet with a 100 foot warehouse. The frame factory held 500 tons of bar sheet and red iron ready for market. Machinery melted, chimneys toppled, and losses reach $160000 with additional claims from several named companies and ships. Over 300 workers faced layoffs as winter nears. An earlier plan to move works near the river resurfaced as the city repealed a prohibitive ordinance just as the fire began.
