The North Baltimore Roller Mills were built by Dr. Eaton, in 1874, with a

capacity of 100 barrels a day. In 1880, G. G. Rockwell purchased the mills,

changed the buhrs for a complete set of Barnard & ,Lee's machinery, and

made it a modern milling concern.

The development of the gas field brought hither new industries, such as the

Zihlmann Glass Co., employing 200 hands and producing 1,000 drinking

glasses or tumblers a day (it was partly destroyed by fire December 15,

1895); the Bartelle Furniture Co., with their great buildings and kilns,

their large force of workmen and local stockholders, such as Aaron Barnd,

L. Weisel, R. Shoemaker and T. J. Adams; the Hardy Machine Co., of which D.

M. Murphy is president, James Hardy, secretary, and Dennis O'Brien,

treasurer, with their immense plant and large force of skilled mechanics;

the Central Pressed Brick Co., who employ eighty-five men, and produce

8,000,000 bricks annually; the Bottle Glass Co., employing 125 men, and

producing carloads of bottles, fruit jars and carboys; and a number of

smaller concerns have been established here since 1887. The presence of gas

and oil for fuel, and remarkable railroad facilities, were the magnets

which attracted them. The scarcity of gas and the high price of oil

threatened these industries early in 1895, and drove the manufacturers to

consider the possibility of having to seek other fuels. With the prospects
