BEET FACTORY FOR SPRINGvILLE
LEHI MEN MAKE PROPOSITION
TO HER CITIZENS.
People Enthusiastic Over the Project,
Which Will Likely Go Through
Terms Discussed at Meeting.
fsnecial to The Herald.O

Springville, Jan. 19.-For the past
day or two rumors of fresh movements
in the matter of building a sugar fac
tory at Springville have been heard,
but nothing developed until last even
ing. 4 few days since Manager T. r.
Cutler and Superintendent Austin of
the Lehi factory were here, and took
a quiet view of the city and its sur
roundings. Today it became known
that these gentlemen had made a
definite proposition looking toward the
building of a factory here, and that
last evening u coterie OF business men
met at the Springville bank, and the
preliminary movements were set on
foot. The proposition filed by Messrs.
Cutler and Austin was as follows-
Messrs. Cutler and Austin would
agree to build a sugar factory at this
place. if the citizens would give them
and certain water right privileges for
the months of September, october and
December. Said factory is to be built
in time to work up the beet crop Of
1900. and to have a capacity equal to
that of the Lehi factory, with buildings
large enough to permit of later in
creased capacity to the extent of 100
per cent.
At the meeting last night a commit
Alexander Robertson and a. w. Fin
ley were appointed TO make arrange
ments for securing the bonus asked for.
Another meeting viii be held Saturday
evening.
The proposed factory site is about a
mile from town in the direction of
Spanish Fork and is at what is known
as the Big Hollow. The land in ques-
ton is the property Of NJ. a. Miner,
and it is understood that he holds it at
$40 per acre-which is regarded by
many as an eXorbitant figure, the soil
being principally black alkali desert
1t is expected, however, that the land
can be secured on satisfactory terms.
MI Cutler is reported to have said
that he had the money ready, and that
if Springville wanted the factory, the
small bonus of land and water was
all that was necessary. All Springville
had to do was TO put up her portion,
and work would be commenced at once.
IF they declined, other places, which
he named, would get the opportunity.
Springville citizens are very enthusi-
astic over the prospect, and hope of a
successful contamination is high They
feel that comparatively little is being
asked them. hen the returns are to be
ringViile, Mapleton and
Spanish Fora the three points of the
triangle in which the factory IS to be
built, have contracted for over LOO
acres OF beets this year, and with
factory near by. this acreage would be
increased.

The Boss Preparing For His Saving Democracy Role
BANKERS FIND A NEW FIELD
WILL BUY THE CUBAN TOBACCO
INDUSTRY.
United States Banking Institutions
Propose to Obtain a Monopoly of
the Havana Cigar Business.

New York, Jan ia dispatch to the
Tribune from Havana says: Propositions
of American capitalists to control the
Cuban tobacco production and manufac-
lures are taking definite shape. 1t is not
vet settled whether this will be in con-
junction with an English syndicate or
in opposition to K. The plan originates
with some New York banks, and includes
banks in Boston, Washington and other
cities. Several promoters and spectators
have been working on the scheme, but
they represented no capital. The present
syndicate is said 20 be comp sed entirely OF
banks. Tn propositiin is to obtain eoAuol
of tobacco lands in the Vuelta Abaja
OF Pinar del Rio district, and also of the
Partido district, in Havana province.
These districts comprise two-thlrds OF the
production of the island
II tobacco-producing lands can be Sc
cured the next step viii be to manufac-
ture the ieaf entirely in Cuba, enabling the
prices to be controlled and driving iInita-
ton Havana cigars out of the market.
NEGOTIATIONS began in October by a New
York banking house. with the tobacco in
terests. which were consolidated into the
English syndicate known as the Havana
Cigar & Tobacco Factories Limited.
This syndicate was composed OF eleven
factories including Henry Clay and Book

and it controls 5000 caballerios, or l6i.4
refused to join the syndicate and have
kent an Independent eXistance.
Negotiations with the English syndicate
are said TO have ceased recently and now
a proposition has been made to lnclan q
Co, and to other outside factories which
are considering.
Tobacco men have heretofore been
skeptical about all plans Tor controlling
production and manufacture of the Cuban
leaf because of the amount OF capital
needed. For this reason individual pro-
motors have received little attention. The
banks. however, have capital enoukh 10
command respect in trade circles, and IL
is known that some factories have re-
ceived offers which are causing them to
reconsider former retusals.
Tobacco lands are held chiefly by small
farmers and are not owned in large
areas by factories. though some of these
have leases on tracts for periods varying
from three TO FIVE years. Tobacco buyers
have claimed that the scheme 'f con-
trolling production is not feasible, but
capitalists are willing 10 attempt the ex-
pertinent The value of the product OF the
Vuelta Abaja and PartidOS districts Is
estimated at from sl0,0JD,o0J to Sl2,O 00a.

Clara, or Of Santiago. comprising the
CHEAP product. The assumption is that
they would follow the course of the pro-
duct in the western part of the island.

The Campaign in Luzon.

Calumpit is town of 1900 people,
about eight miles north of Malolos, on the
islands one railroad, where it crosses the
Rio Grande, river not deep enough to
enable the light gunboats to cooperate
with the advancing army. 1t is difficult to
understand the situation, but General Mac
Arthur and General Wheaton appear to be
driving the Tagal army from point to point
along the railroad, and General Lawton is
clearing away the enemy back to the foot
hills, and will probably form a junction
with Macarthur and Wheaton at some
point beyond the Rio Grande, beyond Cal
umpit. All parts of General Otis army
are now near San Fernando. where per-
haps the Tagals will make all the resis-
tance they are capable of. They had two
field guns, but these seem to have been
captured in the neighborhood of Calumpit.
The heat is intense, but the health of the
troops in the field is said TO be good, al
though General Lawton's forces have been
severely tested both in marching and IN
trying one so far as General Lawton's over
land movement is concerned, but he is ac-
customed to difficult tasks. He had one
when he was hunting Apaches in the Sierra
Madre, another at Santiago and still an
other beyond the Lagoon of Manila. He
bas never failed to accomplish the work cut
out for him, and it is believed he will do
whatever he set out to do in the present
= campaign near Calumpit.
If the intention was to bag Aguinaldo at
Calumpit, it is plain the task of taking him
on the flank and the rear could not be ac-
complished by General Lawton. The en-
envy has fled from Calumpit, and has fallen
back, following the railroad Both sides
cling to the railroad. Aguinaldo needs it
as a line of retreat, and General OTIS
forces need it as an elongaton of their base
of supplies.
No doubt General Otis is endeavoring to
drive Aguinaldo into the hill country where
he will find great difficulty in supplying his
armies, and from which he cannot modest
Manila or the country surrounding it. Thus
far it does not appear that an easy and
quick method of putting down the REBEL
ion has been found, although it is well set
tied that the Tagalos cannot stand against
the attacks of the American troops, and are
hurried from point to point by them. If
their supply of ammunition should give
out the struggle would soon be ended and
it is plain that when they leave the water
front their opportunities for procuring am
munition will be greatly lessened.

In this effort to place white supremacy
beyond question and to purify the ballot
box, Birmingham and Jefferson county
should be well represented; and The Age
Herald calls attention to the Montgomery
meeting in the hope that large delega-
ton will go to it next Monday. True, JET
terson county democrats have been warned
away by Governor Johnston under penalty
of being considered clamorous lobbyists
trying to terrorize the state house; but the
warning will not be apt to appall the dem
ocrats of Jefferson county. They are ac-
customed to such antics. They know what
Johnstonian politics means. They will be
apt to take their hearts in their hands and

HAS SEVEN WIVES
J. H. Darnell an Adept in the Art of
Wooing and Winning

Huntsville, April 2S.-(Special.)-J. Fl.
Darnell, alias ]. Howard Scott, formerly
citizen of Huntsville, has disappeared
from Bowling Green. KY, leaving heart
broken wife. Darnell has several aliases
and several wives distributed over the
United States and these facts leaking out
are supposed to have caused his disappear
ance.
Darnell was first known as Jack How
ard, a butcher from St. Louis. He located
at Paris, Tenn. and married a rich woman,
and after living with her few months dis
appeared. Several years after he turned
up in Huntsville, having in the meantime
married widow of means in Mobile. Here
he engaged in the real estate business, and
made many friends In the first part OF
1898 he leased Hotel Monte Sano, but be-
fore the season opened he disappeared. He
left his wife penniless in this city, and she
had to seek aid from friends to enable her
to return home. After DarnelPs sudden de-
parture his history was obtained, and 1t
is believed he has al least seven wives h:
the south. ts4.e
