An Old Marble Quarry to be Reopened.
The old Holloway quarry, near Jockeys
vile, which has been closed for several years
on account of the expense of carting the mar
BILE to the railroad, will be opened soon by a
company, at the head of which is Mr.. George
Jessop. A railroad switch will be laid from
the quarry to the main track, and the marble
will be shipped direct from Cockeysville to its
destination.
The marble in this quarry is of fine grade
and is nearly all pure, while the neighboring
Beaver dam marble contains about two-thirds
stone making that percentage of it unmarked
able. If the old quarry can be run proflta-

cutters for marble is used SO much in Balti-
more that greater supply will probably lessen
the price,
The Holloway quarry is full OF water now,
but it will take only a short time to pump this
out Owing to the fact that the quarry has
been operated before 1t will be possible to put
it in running order within a few weeks.-BdI-
