Moore Mill Inferno Devastates Galena Lumber Works
A major fire last night destroyed the Moore mill in Galena, ignited about 4:30 by night watchman A Lee. Fire squads suppressed flames after an hour as powerful winds fed the blaze, preserving surrounding lumber yards. The mill, built twenty-five years ago and once employing 225, now lies ruin with $75,000 in uninsurable machinery losses, the Grant Galena company and George D Moore facing the damage. The city recalls the 12-year-old lumber fire and notes the mill’s closure ten years ago, leaving immense local economic impact and a heavy inventory loss including circular saws, belts, and steam equipment.
