Details Steel Mill
TO BE tLOCATED AT THOMAS

Some time ago the Republic Iron and
Steel company announced that they would
build a new furnace at Thomas, and that
it would be one of the largest ~ the eoun-
try.
1t is now given out that work on the con-
struction of the furnace will begin within
the next few weeks, most likely this month,
and that when it is completed another one
will be built
The capacity of each of these furnaces
will be not less than $50 tons or pig iron per
day, or a combined output of 500 tons.
The building of these two furnaces will
give the Republic Iron and Steel company
four blast furnaces in the Birmingham dis
trict, with a combined daily production of
between 800 and 900 tons of iron.
A w. Thompson, member of the execu-
tive board, and c. l. RAIDER, manager of
blast furnaces of the Republic company,
have been in Birmingham for several days
gathering data and making preliminary ar
rangements for the building of the first fur
mace. They will probably return to Chi
cago today or tomorrow.
The Republic Iron and Steel company
contemplates putting in a steel mill in or
near Birmingham, but nothing definite in
this direction has yet been decided upon.
This matter will probably be taken up ear
ly next year, or as soon as work begins on
the new iron furnace at Thomas.

C|TY'S HIGH CREDIT.
Holders Of Tax Arrearage

Some idea of the confidence that is

decline to sell them to the Sinking Fund
Commissioners for a dollar less than their
face value and interest due to the date of

NO COAL FAMINE.
Journals" Alleged Inter-
views Denied By the
Wholesale Dealers.

From authentic information given out
by the wholesale coal dealers in this city,
this morning, there is absolutely no dam
ger of a coal famine. There is no surplus
but there is coal enough on hand to last
until the railroads succeed i'll moving the
trains stalled along the line. The per-
ishable freight has been moved as rapid
ly as possible within the past few days,
and the coal trains will soon be in.
The Journal published story, yes
terday, containing alleged interviews with
large coal dealers, in which they We're
made to say that coal famine was in
evitable This is not the true condition
of affairs. The people of this city need
not fear famine if the statements truly
given out by the dealers are to be relied
upon.
James Coyle, who supplies coal to the
public schools and county institutions,
this morning denied the journal story
regarding the danger of closing the
schools within five days.
.You may, say" said Mr.. Coyle, that
the schools will not close for want OF
coal. I have large supply on hand and
will sell to no dealers until more comes,
which I expect within very few days
The coal I have on hand will undoubtedly
last two weeks.
"The only difficulty experienced is in get
ting the wagons to the schools The
roads are heavy and in deplorable state,
but still there need be no fear OIL the
schools closing'' He added that within
three or four days there would be any
amount of coal on hand And even now
there is no famine.
At the Hudson Coal Co. this morning 1t
was said that not more than half dozen
retailers were refused supplies during
the past few days, and that now the COM
pany is in a position to supply all dealers
who come along At no time did this
company threaten to close up because
of a shortage 1t is delivering hundreds OF
tons day, fresh supply is on hand.
The journal also stated that Waddell
Companys pockets were empty. This
company was merged into the Hudson
Coal Co. two years ago.
The Erie Coal Co, from information
received at that office, is just as Wen
fixed as it ever was. The company mas
plenty of coal on hand and can supply
its customers without difficulty.
The Greenville Coal Co. is drawing upon
its reserve stock. A fresh supply IS ex-
pected each day.
& The Lehigh Valley and Jersey Clty Coai si
Companies, which have yards on Grand
street, above Pacific avenue, are perhaps
shorter than any of the other wholesale
dealers in this city. Their pockets have
but there is no reason to doubt that cars
now on the rail will reach them by Mon
day morning. Up to the present all the
local dealers have been supplied.

Chin.,s First Railway.

The first railroad constructed in China
was narrow gauge line from Shanghai
to Woosung, put down in 1876, and intend
ed chiefly as an ocular demonstration to
the Chinese AT the end of twelve months
it was sold to a Chinese official who
straightway tore up the rails and de-
ported them to Formosa. The single
dummy engine of the line now reposes
peacefully IN the mud of some Formosan
harbor, together with the wreck of the
junk in which it was transported. Dur
ing these twelve months of it's existence
the Shanghai w oosung Railroad, with its
single dummy engine and its train of
small cars, which, by the way, were Of
the American pattern, carried 100000 pas
sengers. The Chinese came from far and
wide to see and experiment with this new
barbarian curiosity, and the people in the
neighborhood, soon finding it an institu-
tion of great practical utility, became
regular patrons. The predicted uprising
of the people against the construction of
the road never materialized, and as for
the graves along the route, every farmer
would manufacture as many graves as
he could get dollars for permission to
traverse them.

GARBAGE COLLECTORS BUSY
Men Have Been at Work All
Week - Hard Time on
the Heights.

In the face of Overwhelming odds Con-
tractor Henry Byrne is doing remarkably
good work in removing the garbage. A
force of one hundred and fifty men and
seventy carts is now doing the work.
Mr. Byrne will undoubtedly keep the
work going Sunday in order to catch up.
The collecting force has been kept on
the go since Monday Each day the work
has been continued far into the night
All the carts and horses that can be had
have been put on, but it is impossible to
work the horses all night. This would
be done if sufficient men and carts could
be employed
The lower section of the city has been
thoroughly taken care of, as the snow
has been removed and the men are there
fore able to work more freely. The great
est difficulty is encountered : on the
Heights, where the streets are piled high
with big drifts. In some places the men
are forced to roll the barrels half block
to dump them. Every section of the city
has been visited.
