FLORENCE TO HAVE BIG POWER PLANT Half Million Dollars Invested in
 the Enterprise. ELECTRIC STREET RAILWAY A Company of Capitalists from New York and Boston Are at
 the Head of the Big
 Enterprise
ELECTRIC STREET RAILWAY

Florence, April A.-(Special )-There Is every indication that Lauderdale county will soon have an electric plant costing more than half million dollars, and that Florence will have an electric street car system in consequence, together with cleo tric lights and electric power to turn every wheel of every manufacturing enterprise in this city. A company of New York and Boston capitalists, which recently received from the United States congress charter to erect power plant on the Muscle Shoals canal, will have representatives in Florence within the next few days for the purpose of making the final preparations.
 The plans of the company the organlza- ton of which has just been perfected in New York City, are not positively known, but it is stated that they propose to dig canal from Lock Nine, the first canal up the river from Florence. two and quarter miles long and extending this way, in which they will get fall of more than thirty feet and develop something like 3o- 900 horse power, enough to turn the wheel of every industry in north Alabama.
 The company has assured those working the project from this end of the line that they Will erect the plant at cost or So0O,- 900 if they can get a guarantee of patron- age from the city of Florence and Sheffield to the extent of 2,50O horse power They propose to charge only s125 per month per horse power, while at the present rates the industries of this city pay little over twice this sum for coal alone. While no figures are known and the deal has been worked with the utmost quiet, your cor respondent has learned that the local pro- motors have already guarantees of over 1000 horse power
 When the representatives of the com- pany reach Florence, and they are expect ed daily, they will have conference with the Florence Merchants association re- garding the securing of the remaining guarantees. In this conference lies the hope of Florence for an electric railway, as the business men of the city are keenly alive to the need of line from the city proper to East Florence the manufactur- ing section of the city, which would un- doubtedly be a paying investment from the start.
