Demand from Out of Town Causea
 Montgomerians to Suffer.
 During the past week there has been a scarcity of Ice. Sunday there were many parts of the city that were not served and many people had to send to the ice office for ice. It is said that 1t took the time of one man to answer questions over the telephone as to the cause of the delay or failure in de- livery and two others to deliver the ice to those who called. The reason for the trouble Sunday was said to be that the orders out of town were SO heavy that the demand was more than the capacity of all the works here.
