PRODUCTION OF PIG
REDUCTION OF % PER CENT IN
 OUTPUT.
Several Furnaces Have Gone Out of Blast and Others Will Follow Suit--Gamb,ers are Leav-
 ing Birmingham.

Birmingham, Oct. 2s.-(Special.)-An au- thoritative statement was given out this afternoon to the effect that the pro- duction of pig iron in Alabama had been reduced 25 per cent. during the pres- ent month. It Is stated that the blow ing out of furnaces was not absolutely necessary to bring about such result. but that all the larger furnaces would blow light. However, the following fur naces have gone out of blast: Talladega, Williamson. Attalla, The Tallapoosa and Jenifer furnaces will be out in the next few days. An agreement is on among the Southern iron manufacturers to cut the production off in order to regulate the market and the curtailment is now being carried out. It is likely that in the next week or two some of the larger furnaces are going to be blown out also.
 The shipment of iron from this district is only delayed through a shortage of railroad cars during the cotton season. One furnace company alone reported 4,OO0 tons of iron ready for immediate ship ment on Monday, while several of the companies announce that they are ready to ship as much iron as they are mak- ing. 1t all depending on the railroads to furnish the cars with which to move the product. Prices are still off and No 2 foundry. is again quoted at between $1O and $10.50 per ton.

Will Care for Veterans.

Chief of Police Wier, who was request ed by C. F. Enslen. chairman of the homes committee of the Confederate Vet erans to make a canvass of the several boarding houses of the city. stated this morning that he will be able to assure the committee of accommodation for at least 500 visitors. This is based upon re- ports of the several patrolmen who were asked to visit every hotel and boarding house in their respective beats and ascer' tain the number of available rooms that could be set aside and guaranteed for ths visiting veterans.
 With these efforts of the police depart ment and the work of the regular com mittee on homes and entertainment, there is little concern now felt about plenty of room to provide. for the comfort of tho visitors. The boarding houses will dc their best to accommodate the crowds.
