Will Be Developed by tho SloSs
 Company
IA MEETING OF DIRECTORS
Resulted in this Declaration at S5 a Ton Is the Prediction of Mir. Bryan,
 One of the Directors.

The extensive brown dron ore lands of the slcss Iron and Steel company, near Leeds, will be developed.
 The Southern railway will extend its line down the Cahaba valley from Leeds to remove ithe output of the mines
 There is every reason to believe that the existing and possible developments of coal and iron ore in sight will put the cost of Birmingham pig iron at s5 per ton.'
 This was the assertion of Joseph Bry- an, of Richmond, Va, director or the Sloss company, to reporter Tor the Age Herald last night. The board of directors of the Sioss Iron and Steel company has been Tn ses- sion for several days. This was one or the results There may have been otn- CTS, but no one would talk. As to the cost of developing the lands and where the funds would come from. the directors were also silent.
 "It will be done,' said MT. Bryan "and that is enough" The value of the ere lands can hardly be fELuTfld Ieu. IG E'~difio eAS brown ore, which has be'n declared very valuable. The cost of development VIII amount to a. considerable sum. The Southern railway considers the wealth of the Cahaba valley immense and has sent several experts to examine the ouse with favorable results. Visited the Cahaba Valley president Sol Haas. I. c.

GOSSIP OF THE STREET
 AND HOTEL LOBBlES

Yesterday afternoon gentleman from Fqorda who only recently arrived in the city, told an interesting story iarustrat- ing the intense patriotism and self-sac- rifee of the Cubans fin their fight for liberty.
 sJoe Mara, the father of the present revolution, was a familiar figure on the Florida coast. He was idolized by the Cubans, and made speeches flaming ths fires of discomfort.
 On one occasion he was i'm a city on the coast making his usual speech and taking up collections for the purpose of pushing the fight. Many of his hearers gave literally but one young man looked d.sconsolate and downhearted. He was in that predicament commonly known as ''bursted."
 The only article of value he posssssed was a gold watch. It was given him by his mother who had long since passed over the great divide. On this account it was priceless jewel to him.
 When the hat reached hm he stood up. He took his priceless treasure from his pocket and ladd it gently in the hat. Then his face lit up with patriotic pride as he whispered for Cuba"
 A wealthy gentleman present noticed the act of sacrifice. Ills heart was touched by the incident for he, too. had known a loving mothers care.
 Young man." he said, ''at what do you value that watch?"
 "To me, sir" sadly, but proudly, re piled the youth, 'it is priceless as it was given to me by my dead mother. How ever, it is easily worth s30"
 The gentleman took out a roll of blls and placed $50 in the hat. He then took the watch and returned it to its owner :
 The young mans face lit up as he re- csdved the watch with loving hands. h. stantly, however, h,s expression changed. He again put the watch into the hat and turned to the wealthy man.
 T tharik you for your act, sir" he said, 'hUt tnat is just so much more for Cuba"
 Marti was afterwards ambushed while returning from Cuba where he took company of patriots. He and several of his companions were kia=d, but his mDsm- ory and the spirit that an.mated him still survives.

W. T. Hugul:y, of West Point, Ga, was at the Morris yesterday. One of the points of ncte in regard to West Point is tkat it lays partly in Georgia ard raarty in Alabama MT. Huguley lives on tine latter side.
 MT. Hugu1ey is just now greatly inter- ested in the Nicaragua Canal question, and has evolved a stch=me by which he believes the affair can be successfully completed and opened to navigation. MT. Huguley has iong been a student of tlra convict sysl.ems in vogue in the United States, and it is by the utilizatiop of this class of labor that he woud bring about @ termination of the project in which so mrny millions have been sunk Mir. Huguley's cheme involves the aid eff the convicts cf all the states Bn the union se well as the federal prisoners s:ntenc.h to hard labor. In return for the services rendered by the states and the government, certificates of stock would be issued in the canal, so that the profits might be equitably enjoyed. NIr. Huguiey realizes that the scheme he hhs in view would be 8 large undertak- ing, but is perfectly confident of it's feasibility. He hores some day to see the convict plan in operation

securely enough to prevent damage
from breakage and not packed in such
manner as to answer all the require
ments of the original package law.
