HOGS-There was an exceptionally heavy
run Of hogs here today for a Monday and
as Chicago was quoted 10ql5c lower prices
here naturally took tumble. At the start
there were possible few loads that sold
l0qlbc lower, but the general market was
right arCung &c lower than the close OF
last week. After packers had their more
urgent orders filled they were very in
dinerent so that the late market was slow
and weak at the decline. The bulk of
the hogs sold at right around S6.05 or from
$500 TO $60lR The prime loads sold mostly
from - % to S6.10. statesmen were slow 10
tame on as much as packers wanted them
70 so the day was well advanced before the
bulk was disposed of.
Todays decline carries the market TO the
lowest point reached since December 10 of
last Renraeantatiya

The new build Ing will cost in the neighoborhood or sl5O0 and it is expected to be quite an ac- quisition to the town.
 It is highly probable that the town will erect waterworks on the banks of the river. At present the citizens have to de- pend on their wells for water, the ma jority are getting very low, some are en- tirely dry. The project of a waterworks is highly favored and its early installa- ton is hoped for. It is considered by many citizens that all Warrior needs to give it a more prominent place among the towns along tie Louisville and Nashville railroad is algood water supply to be followed by an electric plant. Surround ed as it is by some of the most valuable coal fields il the country, with excellent railroad facilities, and in such close prox- Unity to Bifmingham it is maintained here that with proper inducements some manu- facturies night be secured
