Will Rebuild Imperial Pottery.


It is announced that the Imperial Porcelain Works, Trenton, N.J., destroyed by fire Feb. 3 last, will be rebuilt, work to begin on the new buildings as soon as the weather is settled. Frederick A. Duggan, proprietor of the old plant, states that the plans for rebuilding will closely follow those that existed before the fire. It will cost somewhat over $25,000 and will be entirely of brick. The company's present quarters, the old East Trenton pottery, is working full time and going on as though nothing had happened. It is the intention of the firm to continue to operate this plant when the new one is built, running both places. The dies, rescued from the vaults intact after the fire, are at the present works and will be kept there for use on the line now engaged upon.
