Steel Made from Alabama iron.
Birmingham Age.


The test made yesterday by the Hem
derson Steel Works, it is confidently
claimed, was successful. Good steel was
made ont OF low grade of Alabama pig
iron. Ifthis true, and there is every
reason to believe it is, the future OF Bir-
mingham, well-assured for greatness as
it ia, is made brilliant indeed. We can
make pig iron here cheaper than any
where in the United States, and if we
can make steel out Of our iron, of course
we can make steel cheaper than any
place in the United States. The further
demonstration Of the success Of the Hen
derson process will be awaited with eX-
ceeding interest. Ifit Is successful, as
now sincerely asserted, then will Bir-
mingham, A Ia, truly rival in magnitude
and variety Of manufactures Birmingham
England, a sorts OF cutlery, even
raZors, will be made here. Jones val

The Birmingham iron industry will rap

Two More Furnaces for Alabama.
Baltimore Manufacturers Record.

Baltimore Manufacturers Record.
A few years ago Mr. Samuel Thomas,
the founder of the great Thomas Iron
Co, of Pennsylvania, whose furnaces
have an annual capacity OF about 100000
tons, and who has been universally re-
garded as standing at the very head Of
iron-making in Pennsylvania, invested
heavily in Alabama mineral lands,
About year ago Mr.. Thomas organized
a million.dolla company tOdevelop this
property by building one Of the most
perfect furnace plants In this country.
The immense furnace which is now
nearing completion has been construct
ed in the most perfect manner. When
the announcement was made that Mr..
Thomas had decided to build furnace
in Alabama, many Northern people who
had been skeptical as to the possibilities
of iron making in that State at once ad
mitted that when such a concern as the
Thomas Iron Co., of Pennsylvania, OF It's
leading owners, were ready to back their
faith in Alabama by investing million
dollars in iron enterprises, then, indeed,
must the Alabama iron boom have sol
id foundation. The announcement is
now made, and we judge it is correct,
that Mr.. Thomas has just closed the
contract for building two more furnaces
on his Alabama property at cost OF
about 100000. This announcement
will do great good. 1t will show that one
of the foremost iron men of America sees
that there are vast possibilities before
Alabama's iron interests, and he propos-
es to take very active part in their de
velopment, and, having one furnace
nearly finished, he contracts for two
more There is no let up in the great
work of developing Alabama's marvel
