COAL DEALERS NOT AFFECTED.
Prices Here Have Been Advanced but
Little.

Despite the great strike of miners in
the anthracite coal regions there is
little fear here of a squeeze in the price
of coal. Inquiry yesterday developed
the fact that Americus dealers are
pretty we'll stocked already, and while
the price of anthracite has been adj
vanced fifty cents per ton since Thurs
day the price of soft coal remains the
same, ranging from 81 to So per ton
at retail, delivered. Very little hard
coal. comparatively, is used here and
Americus will not suffer by the strike
unless the price of coal generally is
advanced later on. Dealers here
placed their orders early in the season
and much of the coal has already been
delivered. The greater part of the
coal consumed here comes from north
Alabama and Tennessee, principally
from Birmingham, where the mines
are still being operated to their full
capacity.

REBUILDING OF FACTORY HERE
Americas People Greatly Pleased al
Prospect.

The announcement made by the
es-Recorder yesterday that the
great plant of the Virginia Carolina
Chemical Co. here was to be operated
again this season, the acid chambers
rebuilt and greatly enlarged, and other
improvements made as we'll, was high
Iy gratifying to our citizens, as was to
have been expected. It means the re-
establishment of one of our largest
industries, thus affording employment
to considerable number of people
here, adding another to our manufae-
turing interests and to an extent re-
ducing the cost of fertilizers to farmers
in this section. General Superin-
tendent W. w. Franks will probably
reach Americas shortly, when more
information relative to the starting of
the factory may be given out. In the
meanwhile our citizens are contented
to know that the plant will certainly
resume operations, and that shortly.

FIGHT ON The BULLS
COMES TO A CLOSE.
Market Was Inclined to Rally at
Opening.
THOUGH STILL A BIT FEvERIsH.
Downward Course of Prices Checked
Though There is no Great Demand
For Spot Cotton, Heavy Receipts
Continue at the Ports,

The downward course taken by the
cotton market week ago was checked
yesterday by a slight rally at the open
ing, and though fluctuations contin-
ued throughout the day the market
showed net gain of eight or ten
points at the close. It is hoped that
even more strength will be shown to-
day, though there are some here who
predict still further decline as long
as receipts continue heavy. 1t is be-
lieved that for the next week the
movement will be heavier than at any
time during the season, at least in this
portion of the belt, as very large
part of the entire crop here was gath
cred this week and one week more will
greatly relieve the pressure. Ameri-
Gus buyers continue to pay top prices,
which range about the ten cent mark.
The staple is freely offered at the ware
houses, many farmers declining to
hold while they can get anything like
ten cents. Receipts In Americas today
will probably be the heaviest OF the
cotton season.

STATUE
UPON PEDESTAL.
Heroic Figure of Soldier Placed in
Position.
OUR MONUMENT NOW FINISHED
Figure Weighs Almost Ton And is
True to Life. Ladies Pleased That
Their Laborious Task is Nearly
Completed.

Americas now joins her sister cities
in the South that have perpetuated the
valorous deeds of the soldiers of the
Confederacy by erecting beautiful and
enduring monuments that generations
yet unborn may know of the chival-
rous deeds performed by the soldiers
of the Southland.
Her beautiful monument is now
completed, and her devoted women
feel the consciousness of duty we'll
performed.
The pedestal of granite and marble,
eighteen feet in height, was reared
several months ago, but not until yes
terday was the monument completed
entirely by the placing of the statue.
This, as already told by the Times
Recorder, represents a Confederate
soldier, the grandest type of manhood
the world has eyer known. He is sim
ply apriyate, as evidenced by the &C
coutrements worn and the trusty old
gun gripped firmly in his strong right
hand, that held it SO we'll.
1t Is an imposing figure and elleits
the greatest admiration.
While the base is of Georgia granite
and Tennessee marble, the statue was
made IN Italy. 1t weighs seventeen
hundred pounds and is held in position
by its own weight.
Messrs. Miller & Clarke, who placed
the order for the Ladies Memorial AS
ISOLATION and Daughters of the Con-
federacy, and who have kindly rem
dered every assistance, succeeded in
placing the statue yesterday in the
presence of several hundred interested
spectators gathered there.
The statue is seven feet in height
and faces west on Forsyth street.
It is not known what ceremonies
will attend the unwilling of the mon
ument, but this occasion will probably
be deferred for time. perhaps until
next Memorial Day. April Goth,

Shockley, it will be remembered,
