LIEUT.. EAGAN HAS
 A CELEBRATION
HE OBSERVES THE FOURTEENTH ANNIVERSARY OF HIS SERVICE ON HE POLICE FoRcE-HAS HAD EVENTFUL CAREER.

Lieutenant Martin Eagan last night celebrated his fourteenth anniversary with the police department. On the last day of the year, 1889, he was elected a patrolman, and he has served continu- ously since that time.
 On the first day of last May, Lieuten- ant Eagan was elected to the office he now holds. It was given him as a just tribute to his many years service in the department He has a peculiar record Although always considered one of the best officers on the force, he has never sought advancement. At one time it was rendered him, and he refused to take it.
 When the present administration went into effect on the first of last May, Lieu tenant Eagan was elected second night lieutenant. He is on duty from o'clock at night to o'clock in the morning. thus being the only officer on the de- shifts of patrolmen.
 Lieutenant Eagan has had several mar row escapes since he went on the force On August +, 1900, he was shot through the left wrist by a negro near Alice fur naces, but wounded the negro and cap tured him. At the same time two other negroes emptied their pistols at him, and escaped. The following day, Jack Me Donald, who was sergeant at that time, took five men and located the negro be- low Bessemer in a railroad cut. The fol- lowing morning, they brought him into the city on hand car dead
 About five years ago three white men, bank robbers held MT Eagan up in First alley, just back of where Gelders res taurant now is and intended killing him to rob the bank. He had his hands in his pockets, and they made him walk several years, having him completely at their mercy. Finally he jumped into a doorway, pulled his pistol and attacked the three men, He wounded one, who escaped, caught another and the third escaped. Only few weeks ago the man he wounded hunted him up, and they had long talk. The man went to Mont gomery after he was shot, was in the hospital six weeks and had an operation performed. He escaped from the hospi- tai

for the. past three months" he said. 'and we are now making very careful analy- sis of the different borings at our labora- tories"
 In addition to looking out for c.ment properties MT. Loranger Is also interest," ing himself in coal lands in the district He stated that in locating a cement in dustry the raw material was far from being the only requisite to be considered Railroad facilities, freight rates, fuel and other things must be taken into account
 T am delighted with Birmingham" said MT. Boranger. Tt is a wonderful city and her people have made me feel very much at home since my arrival With the vast field of undeveloped min eral riches that surround the city and district Birmingham is destined to be- come great city. It is already the near est approach to the typical northern city that exists in the south.

POLICE MAKE FINE
 RECORD FOR YEAR
EXPENSES OF DEPARTMENT LESS THAN REVENUE TO ITS CREDIT. STOLEN PROPERTY RECOVERED DURING THE YEAR.

For the first time in it's history, the police department has been self-support- ing for year. Last year the expenses were just s15s less than the revenue of the department. During the year the pay rolls were $40S70.36, and the receipts from fines and fees imposed and stolen property recdvered were $4S,52647.
 Much of the credit of this balance on the right side of the ledger is due to the excellent work in October of Detectives Bodecker, Hamilton and Patton, who re- covered $4,074.b0 worth of stolen property. This goes to the credit' of the depart ment In making up the balance jn fa- vor of the department, the fines and fees remitted by the mayor are not included This would iun the receipts up a couple of thousand dollars.
 Another gratifying showing during the past year was the reduced number of arrests made by the department. ItIwas considerably lower than the previous year. The total number of arrests for the past year were 11,93S Several months months during the past year the mum Der of arrests have fallen much below the average.
 In comparing the figures for 1903 and 1902, it will be seen that in the latter year the city had to pay about s12,00O out of the treasury towards the expenses of the department, although 1t was smaller than during last year. The pay roll in 1902 was s535O0, or about s5OO0 more than 1903
 Many people congratulated Chief Wier yesterday on hs success. For the next year, the chief says he hopes to still further reduce the number of arrests, and that, more than that, he hopes to minimize the necessity for making ar rests.

Alabama has an excellent prospect of securing a million dollar cement plant.
 The plant will be located some where in the Tombgbee cement district and will have a capacity of 1000 barrels per day at the start which will be increased the second year to 20oo barrels per day.
 Only a superior grade of Portland cement will be manufactured which will have all the requisite qualities of first class cement including perfect uniformity
 Attorney Ubald R. Loranger of Bay City, Mich, is in the city now and is stopping at the Hillman. He represents not only his own interests but also rep resents a large amount of northern capi- tai which will be put into the cement plant if it is located in Alabama.
 MT. Loranger stated last night that the indications were very favorable that they would build million dollar plant in Ala bama.

IRON MARKET HAS
 B BRIGHT OUTLOOK
yhVANcE IN SOUTHERN IRON TO
 s1o IS PRINCIPAL FEATURE NOTED IN clNcINNATI-QUoTA-
 TIoNs-WILL BE MAINTAINED.

gers, Brown & Co.'S Cincinnati cir
 says:
 principal item of interest during the
 is the advance by number or
 hern furnaces to the basis of $10 Br-
 gham for No. foundry. It has been
 by most of them for some time past at prices of southern brands unneces- 1ily low in comparison with all other kinds of pig iron, and that it was only necessary to have united action In order to advance the price to living basis. It Is supposed that the leading companies are now in comfortable shape on account or the large volume of business booked at the lower range of prices. It is expected that 5y the time the present orders are filed during the first quarter of 1904 there will be a sufficient revival in business to maintain quotations at slo and possibly higher. The situation in northern irons has not changed The demand is limited and IS not likely to be increased to any great extent until after the annual inventories nave been taken and new contracts for cast inss secured. It is believed that prices have nearly If rot quite reached the iow- est limit that will be made previous to the opening of navigation.
 Current sales are on the basis or from $1 to s1 50 per ton less than actual cost and with the improvement in prices or southern irons there should be at least steadying of prices of northern brands If all the anticipated reductions in labor -6uring January are made it will amount to but little on each ton of iron, and heavy loss will continue unless prices go higher.
 The coke situation is apparently little better in the Connesville district. There have been heavy inquiries during the last week and a number of furnace contracts have been placed and considerable of the lowest-priced coke has been disposed of. The largest operators in that district have refused to meet the competition Of the smaller ones, and are holding at from 25 to 50 cents per ton higher than mini mum prices.
