The returns from manufactures tC
the American Iron and Steel Associ.
alton. show that the total production
of pig iron in the United States in
1892 was 1000 gross tons
against 7,279,S70 tons in 1891, and
9,202, 703 in 1890. The production
in 1892 was only 45,703 tons less
than in 1890, the year of maximum
production. The extraordinary &C
tivity which had marked the second
half of 1891 was but slightly checked
in the first half of 1892, but in the
second half of 1892 the decline was
much moro and indications point to
it's continuance.
The production Of pig iron in 1892
by the nine Southern States of Mary
land, Virginia, North Carolina, Geor-
gia, Alabama, Texas, West Virginia,
Kentucky and Tennessee was 1890
167 gross tons, against 1,70S,966
tons in 1891, and 1,744,16 tons in
1890. The production i'll 1892 was
the largest the Southern States have
yet reached, being 46,0O7 gross tons
in excess of the very large production
in 1890.
According to recent bulletin up
on the iron and steel industries of the
Southern States, issued by the census
office at Washington, there are
twelve Southern States now engaged
in developing their mineral resources
by the establishment of rolling mills
and steel works, viz: Alabama, Del
ewarc, Georgia, Kentucky, Maryland,
North Carolina, Tennessee, Texas,
Virginia and West Virginia. The
capital invested in blast furnaces in
these States increased from about
SIT, 10000 in 1880 over 1888, 600, 900
in 1890. In rolling mills and steel
works the increase was from $l1 $780,
600 in 1880 to $17,500,000 in 1890.
The products of these works increas-
cd from 100000 to $4,000 tons the
increase being exclusively in steel.

Coming Back to Coal.

Reliable information from the nat
ural gas fields of Ohio, Indiana and
Pennsylvania, proves that the failure
of the natural gas supply Of that
section of the country is no longer a
subject of speculation, and that the
only uncertainty about it is the
amount Of time which will elapsc be-
fore it is complete. The future of
natural gas is, however, but matter
of short duration, and when it does
go the manufactures which have
been led through the cheap fuel argu-
ment to establish themselves in that
section will drift to the large coal
fields of the South in order to get an
abundance of cheap fuel and at the
same time approach more closely the
base of their trade which now is AL
ALBANIA, and when the Nicaragua ca
nal is completed the advantage of a
location in this State will be a very
decided one. Already large glass
factories arc seeking coal locations in
coal fields, and many other indus
tries of similar needs will follow in
anticipation of the gas fires under
their boilers being exhausted. 1t is
this situation that gives Alabama
ono of her brightest prospects. 1t
will be only short time in history
till the North will again drift back
to agriculture, and manufacturing
will find it's field upon the large and
lasting coal and iron beds of which
Alabama is especially abundant.
There is every argument to prove
that it is in the nature OF sound bus
mess sense of the growing towns CT
this section, and large iron and coal
fields, to be on the lookout Of these
valuable wayfarcrs, who, like the
bedouins of the desert, seek the rich
est fields of existence, where cheap
fuel and an ever growing market
enable them to compete with others.
Let our citizens be up aud doing, and
continually~on the lookout to secure
institutions which will add volume to
our business and value to real
estate and wages. The failure Of the
gas fields will prove our fortune II VIC
are active and enterprising enonghto
secure it-Apniston Hot Blast.
