 News.
WILL DRAW FROM WARRIOR

Ensley, October 22.-(special)-A move ment is on foot among number of Ensleys leading business men to organ ize a stock company for the purpose of bringing water to this city from the Warrior river. To this end Captain J. W. Baker, vlce-president of the Ensley Land company, and Mayor N. W. Scott will go up the Warrior Monday on prospecting trip. They will inspect the river, gather data concerning the feasibility of the proposed plan and report back to the promoters of the water works company.
 It is the intention of the company to procure a sufficient water supply for Ensley, and all its industries, and other proposed plants. It Is about twelve or thirteen miles from Ensley to the nearest point on the Warrior. It Is argued that the plan to bring water from that river to this city is practical, and that the sup ply will be ample, not only for Ensleys present industries, but will be the means of bringing several other manufactories to this city
 Mayor Scott, who Is one of the pro- motors of the movement, is very enthusi- astic over the matter. and feels confi- dent that if it Is carried out it will mean much to the future industrial develop ment of the Steel City.
