FACTORY BEING DlsMANTLED.
No Wagons Ever Manufactured at the
 Big Gadsden Plant.

Gadsden, March 10-(Speclal.) )-The Mecklan wagon factory which was sold at public auction several weeks ago, has about ended Its existence. The factory was purchased by Samuel Roberts of An niston several weeks ago, and the trade was never consumated because the com pany could not give a good deed. A Georgia firm contemplated buying the plant but for some reason decided not to purchase 1t, and the machinery was sold to different parties. N. A. Ham monds purchased the saw mill outfit com bought one of the large boilers which will be added to their power plant at the brick yard. The wagon making machinery will be sold and moved away and the build ings will be sold.
 The Mecklan Wagon factory located in Gadsden some two years ago and built a large and well equipped plant here. It seems that their factory was built on borrowed capital. The city of Gadsden gave them whatever assistance they could until they could see further into the possibilities of the plant. It was seen that they were on a shallow basis. The plant was completed but never made wagon. The location of the factory was one of the best in the city and had the company financial backing would have had a fine industry and one that could have paid well.
