Sand Mill Destroyed by Fire Near Warwick
The Chippewa Sand and Stone Company's sand mill at the quarry near Warwick was completely destroyed by a Thursday night fire. A spark from a passing engine likely started the blaze, with a train passing shortly before flames were spotted. Leffler estimated losses at about 1,800 for Loeffler and 11,000 for Hurxthal, with only partial insurance coverage. The mill, leased by Loeffler and Ruch from Hurxthal, had orders to operate through winter but will be shut down. The office is in the Segner block in Massillon.
