Lobster Factory Is Total Loss

Fire which storied from the outside, of unknown origin, des- troyed the extensive lobster fac- tory of Mr. Andre Iaturel, of Summerslde, early Wednesday morning. The lire was discovered at 12.30, Tuesday night by mun who were in the factory at the time, waiting to pack a ship- ment of live lobsiers to go on the early morning train for the Boston market. Fortunately the lobsters had not been brought in from the boats. The fire spread so rapidly that nothing could be done to save the expensive ma- chinery. The fuiory is situated on Queen's Wharf, but the ﬂre- men madc a qulcli response and it was through their llllf-lrlng ol- forts in ﬁghting tlrc ﬁre that the warehouse, where ihrre ls a large quantity of boxes find other ma- terials used in ihi- lobster pawl:- ing and shipping industry storf ed was saved. The expensive ma- chinery in the faciory is absol- utely mined and Mr. Paturel‘! loss at this time of year is a heavy one as he will not be able to pack until he can secure a suitable building with the neces- sary packing facilities. He has at present forty thousand pounds of lobsters ready fo be canned. The factory and equipment are only partly covered by insurance and rnuch sympathy ls felt ful- Mr. Paturel in the loss of his fac- tory at this busy reason. Th! insurance underwriters are l1!- vestlgatlng the i-xinlli of the damage.
