cheaply constructed when necessary to
extend them into new sections. The
machinery needed to mine and prepare
the material is simple aud inexpensive

other mining operations, and the cost
of plant with sufficient land to work
upon is within the reach of small in

are about $50 during the year. The eli

A TRIP TO rnE Coal FIELDS.
President Kimbali and Other n. 81 w
Officials In tho Southweat.

President Kimball and Other n. ~ w.
omcials In the Southwe.t.
The Bluefield Telegraph of yesterday
says:
Presiden. Kimball, General Manager
Sands and General uperintendent Hip
pey made one OF their periodical trips
through the Flat Top region yesterday.
They came from Columbus and went
east from Bluefield at o'clock.
Supt. N. D. Maher met the party in
the field, and had brief business
session with them. Several of the coal
operators took occasion to shake hands
with the visitors.
About the only business pertaining to
this sec ton that the officials are trou bled
over at this time Is the scarcity of cars.
After very dull semmer the road is
suddenly launched upon prosperity's
tidal wave, with really more traffic than
1t can handle as promptly as would nat
urslly be desired. Since the revival in
trade and the restoration Of the coal
traffic to it's normal state the Norfolk and
Western has been patronized to greater
extent than ever before. The closing
month shows the largest volume OF bus
mess in the history Of the company.
There was an output OF 90s cars Of
coke last week and about 5000 of coal.
TO handle this traffic under ordinary
conditions would test the capacity of the
road, but with the lumber, live stock
and merchandise shipments twice as
heavy as they we're last year or the
year before, the situation becomes per-
picking. 80
The Norfolk and Western will shortly
give out contracts for building 1000
hopper gondolayesfs OF 10000 pounds
capacity, t., be equipped with Westing-
house air Brakes and automa site couplers.
Improvement Is the order Of the day,
hoti in track and equipment.
President Kimball expresses himself
as feeling greatly encouraged at the
present condition OF traffic and the pros
poets of the road.
Vice President w. c. Bullitt and
Vernon Brown, general agent of the
Cunard steamship line, arrived from
Roanoke last evening and will visit the
coal field to-day.
