Sawmill Fire Destroys Rose Lake Mill In $70000 Loss
Rose Lake March 13. The Rose Lake Lumber companys mill was totally destroyed by fire in a loss estimated at seventy thousand dollars. The blaze gutted the plant along the Coeur d Alene river, with owners Al Page and Andy Devlin among the heavy losses. Insurance covered some of the value despite legal questions pending over land classifications involving mineral status and possible railroad claims. The report notes a lengthy history of the land issue, including prior classifications and protests, with potential implications for substantial timber holdings valued around a million dollars.
