BARREL OF WHlsKEY STOLEN
From the Railroad ware-rOom at the
Mt Clare Station.

Several days ago barrel of old rye
was shipped into Mt. Glare, evidently
for the late speak.easy at that place,
1t was rolled into the ware-room,
where it remained for lack Of an own
er. One night while the agent was
busy looking after some cars loaded
with lumber. parties played the Jesse
James act by rolling that barrel out
OF the room and hiding it outside. Az
ter the night had become quiet, the
barrel was rolled down along the river
bank and concealed under some trash.
A boy discovered it there later. Then,
parties paid the freight on it and it
is now the property of citizen
at that place. Again, it is noticed
that some Of the boys are "boozing."

 IN OPERATION
Start Was Made in the Presence
 of a Large Crowd.

Ensley, January 6.-(Speeial)-I the presence of a large crowd the blooming mill at the steel plant was put in operation yesterday, and many of the ingots turned out by the furnaces were put into mercan- tile shape.
 The start was perfect success, the big machinery responding to the touch of the lever without hitch.
 Among those present were Colonel A. M Shook and many of those interested in the foundation of the great plant.
 The billets turned out last afternoon from the blooming train give satisfaction. It will be but a few weeks now before the big steel mill will be on in full blast. The other seven furnaces are nearing comple- itlon, and will soon be in operation.
 It will be some little time yet before the steel wire and rod mill will be ready for operation
 The Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company, together with the steel company. will have an office in this place shortly that will be a credit to both. The company has already begun to construct the building The foundations are being put in by the Miner company. The old office burned down this week forced the steel company to use offices in the building of the steel wire and rod mill. The new build ing being constructed by the Tennessee company will be located on Nineteenth street, not far from the Louisville and Nashville railroad depot, and in close touch with the furnaces, the steel foundry and machine shops, the steel plant, cement works and other industries recently located at Ensley.

disregardment or the rules and international obligation,


 itvely known that in the
 turpitude is involved, but from the state ment of facts set out in the press dis patches the case appears to bear strong resemblance to others which have preceded 1t and which, in our estimation justified the action of foreign governments in adopting summary measures to collect their money. z This particular case is said to have been pending about three years and it is under stood that President HeureauX has finally arranged to settle it, but the agreement was disregarded by Jiminez, his successor, and the present occupant of the presiden- tial office of Santo Domingo.
 There is a possibility that the United States may ultimately become involved in this affair through what is known as the San Dominican syndicate, controlled by New York capitalists. This concern has concession from the San Dominican gov- ernment by which in return for defraying the interest on the public debt, and other wise assisting the government of the city, 1t is entitled to collect all of the custom revenues of the island.
 The present administration in Santo Do- mingo is believed to be so low in funds that it could scarcely pay the $60 900 demanded by the French government In settlement of the pending claim. If in this case the French naval commanders should under take to seize the customs revenues, an in- teresting question might arise It should be stated, however, that so far 1he state department in not informed that Jimnez has recognized as still in force the conces- sion held by the New York syndicate com- ing from the late President HeureauX.
