Doherty Organ Works, Clinton, Destroyed by fire, FACTORY WILL BE RE -BUILT, The Doherty organ factory, which has been the boast of Clinton citizens for twenty years, was burned down Tuesday morning. The entire plant, wbich oo• copied half a block, is a total loss, nob even the lumber having been saved. The origin of the fire is a mystery, ex- cept that it originated in the hot blast fan which was used to heat the buildings. The night watchman was on duty and smelt fire and soon located it in the steel box which contained the fan. He ab once stopped the working of the fan and start- ed the pumps. By the time he returned to the fan with the hose, the heat and fire were so istenee that when he opened the door Ise was driven back and almost suf- focated. A general alarm was then sounded but owing to the very deep snow caused by Monday's storm, it was with difficulty that the steam engine arrived at the tanks near the factory. The temper- ature was considerably below zero and a very high wind blowing, so that it was with difficulty that the firemen undertook their work. The factory was the largest exclusively organ factory In attendee and yet not large enough to meet the demands of their trade, and Mr. Doherty was making se- rangemeute bo build another large ad- dition this year. Mr. Doherty has been remarkably suooessful in working op a worldwide reputation for his organs and deserves great oredib for his executive ability in managing his business so suo• oessfully. Through these last few years of so•oalleil hard times, the demand was so great that during October, November and December the men were all working over time. The building, stock and machinery were valued at $100,000, and there were nearly 1,000 organs on the way to com- pletion, whLle in the yard there was near- ly a million feet of valuable lumber. Against all thie there is bub a emall in. surauoe, from thirty to forty thousand dollars, hence Mr. Doherty's loss will be vory heavy. The following are the interested com- panies ; Lancashire' Guardian, Gore, Economical, Imperial, Phoenix, Water. loo, Mercantile, London, Liverpool and Globe, Northern and Caledonian. About 150 men were employed and for them to be turned out the coldest day in winter is to say the leash not pleasant. Mr. Doherty's residence, which was unfortunate enough to be situated right behind the faotory, was also totally des. troyed. His family are therefore with- out a home. Al a special meeting of the Town Connell held on Tuesday morning they deoided to offer W. Doherty & Co. the sum of $25,000 es a loan for thirty years without interest. The firm have accept- ed the offer and the by law will be sub. mitbed to the people at an early date. When re -building the faotory will bo placed near the G. T, R, to facilitate shipping. 117tnrrlr.. The munioipal auditors aro at work this week. The wind storm is putting n bad bloola ads on a good many of the roads.
