Machines also became simpler to operate, and that gave mill owners an idea as to how they could increase profits. They began to

hire women and children to work at the machines, paying them less money than men because, they reasoned, they were less capable than men. Soon mill owners began firing men and hiring children for all but the most skilled positions. Grown men could not find work, and desperate families, living off only their children’s wages, began to send younger and younger children to work in an effort to make ends meet.

Described roughly/uncontrollable fire

Adumbrate is an academic word that is used to foreshadow something to occur, or as it is used in the sentence here, meant to give a vague description or outline of something. The usage of this word is extremely low according to normal corpus linguistic standards. The root of the word is "umbra" and from the Latin, shadow. And as such is the other more frequently used intention of the word - to foreshadow. In this context of foreshadowing, it is meant to tell what is likely to occur in a novel or story line.

Conflagration on the other hand is a powerful fire. It is meant to be used to describe a fire which is incredibly destructive and intense. A good synonym would be "inferno", as this also includes connotations with hell and/or the devil. A conflagration would be a spectacle to watch and in extremely dangerous to be in or around.
