city, and the material for the buildings is now being placed on the grounds.
 The main building will be 75x250 feet, and will be built of brick and stone The en- zine and boiler room will be 30x50 feet and of the same material. The Messrs. Ash craft expect to have all of the machinery by the middle of November, and to begin operations by the 1st day of January. The mill will manufacture what is known to the trade as "brown sheeting," a coarse do- nestle made from the lower grade of yarns. They Will use both the round and square bales of cotton, new round-bale ginnery having just been completed in connection with the new cotton mills and the oil mill
 The mill will run night and day from the beginning, and electric light plant will be part of the equipment. The goods manufactured will not come in competition with the Cherry cotton mills, also located in this city. About two hundred hands will be employed In the Ashcraft mills, the number of spindles being 5000, with 100 looms and the necessary lappers and other machinery.
 The round-bale ginnery will be in opera ton within the next few days, and while the best grades of cotton will be sold the lower grades will be used in the mills at nome. The goods will be for the export trade almost exclusively.

MOUNTAIN OF RICH
 ORE NEAR BESSEMER
Remarkable Deposit of Red Hematite Re- gently Discovered and Opened Up Four
 Miles from the Marvel City.

A lost or detached mountain of soit red hematite steel-making iron ore has been opened up by T. R. Collins four miles from Bessemer and a quarter of a mile from a main line of railroad. The ore has been carefully analysed by an expert, and his signed report shows the ore to have a per eentage of 40 to 60 1-10 steel producing iron, which makes it one of the most valuable ore deposits in the mineral region of Ala bama.
 This rich mountain is not a part of the Red mountain range; 1t is what is called lost mountain, standing apart to it. self It's ore Is greatly superior to that of Red mountain, and the high percentage demonstrated by the analyst is proof that it is one of the richest mines yet opened up in the southern iron country.
 This important discovery by MT. Collins has a three-fold advantage. The ore is the highest grade hereabouts; 1t Is deposited in a way that is most easily accessible, and no machinery will be required in the min ing of the ore.
 Mir. Collins has driven a tunnel 125 feet long into the side of the mountain, and thus laid open to view and profitable work ing what Is in fact great mine of wealth. The mine has never been worked; it has been simply opened by MT. Collins indi- Nidual enterprise. Curiously enough, the existence of this immense ore deposit at the very door of Birmingham has remained practically unknown. Mir Collins, who is one of the strong representa- lives of the great spirit of development in Birmingham and the district, is a discoverer, inasmuch as he has brought to light a source of splendid wealth, with which even the ex- pert buyers of ore lands were unacquaint- ed. The discovery Is very important one, in view of the great and ever-increasing demand on the part of investors for min eral lands in the Birmingham district. Most of such lands have been already sold, and are therefore not on the real estate market.
 Mir. Collins has decided to dispose of the splendid property which he has opened up.
 Any further information desired can be obtained from T R. Collins, Bessemer, Ala, P. o. Box "A. .4.s s

WEEKLY CROP BULLETIN
Southern States Are Suffering for Want
 of Rain

Washington, September 26.-Following is the weather bureaus weekly summary of the crop conditions:
 No rain having fallen over large part of the southern states, the droughty condi- tions of the previous week continue in that section. Rain is also needed over portions of Illinois, Iowa and Nebraska.
 Except over portions of Pinar del Rio, Havana and Santa Clara provinces, much needed and copious general rains have fal- len in Cuba. proving of inestimable value to all crops and putting the soil in excel lent condition for planting.
 The corn crop has experienced generally favorable weather conditions during the week. As previously stated the reports in- dicate that late corn has failed to develop well in the central valleys and southern states
 Under favorable weather conditions cot ton picking has made rapid progress. Nearly the whole of the crop is open, and the bulk has been gathered over a large part of the cotton region The marked features of this seasons crop are prema- ture opening, early gathering and a very short crop. the latter in some sections be- ing a complete failure
 The tobacco crop has been cut and housed, except over limited areas in Vir- ginia and North Carolina where cutting will be completed by October 1. The weather of the past week has been gen. erally favorable for curing.
 Excellent progress has been made dur ing the week with blowing and fall seed ing in the Ohio valley, middle Atlantic states and New England. but generally throughout the southern states and in the upper Mississippi valley the soil has been too dry, and slow progress with this work has been made. In the Ohio valley and middle Atlantic states, early sown grain is germinating finely.

(Contlnued From First Page) poor opinion of General OtIs This report has lately been revived and repeated in a number of ways. It is generally believed that the admiral will have much influence with the administration, and his views of the Philippine policy will be anxiously sought. A strong impression prevails that when he gives his opinion it will not be favorable to General Otis.
 "There is to be a conference at the white house shortly after Dewey's return, at which the president will meet the admiral and the Philippine commission, and what Is said at that conference may result in some alterations in the military policy in the Philippines"
