REACHED
ANNISToN PLANT TO CONTINUE
 IN OPERATION.
Receivers of Southern Car G Found. ry Company and Owners of the Anniston Industry Arrange
 Amicable Settlement.

Anniston, Feb. 2.-(Special.) )-An amica. ble agreement was arrived at tonight at meeting of the representatives of the Southern Car and Foundry Company re- ccivers, and the owners of the local plant, whereby the receivers will continue to conduct the local car works until April l.
 Quite a controversy has arisen between the receivers and the owners recently, and the meeting to-day brought a settle ment to the satisfaction of all concerned There was present at the meeting Can tain J. M. Elliott. Jr., of Gadsden, T. A. Gillespie of Orange, N. J., A. E McCor- die of Chicago: J. II. Tillman of Birming- ham and W. R. Dortch and T. w. Good hue of Gadsden. Captain Elliott recently purchased the plant of the Illinois Car and Equipment Company of which Mir. McCordic Is president, and when the lease of the Southern Car and Foundry Company expired January 1S he raised the rental price from $l6,00O to $32,O 900 per year. The receivers have since been hold ing the plant under a tentative lease,
 The meeting to-day began. about 10 o'clock this morning and continued until tonight behind closed doors, in the Ho- tel Alabama. The Advertiser representa- tive saw Captain Elliott and Mir. MeCor- die shortly after the meeting adjourned and they would give out nothing further than that an amicable agreement had been arrived at, and that the receivers would conduct the plant until the orders now on hand were completed, which will be about April l. Mir. McCordic was ask cd what would then be done with the plant. He replied that he coui1 not give this out just yet, but said that a new regime would take charge.
 The receivers at present have a large stock of material on hand to remove. This would be very expensive. and it is under stood that what material remains at the close of new lease will be taken in charge by the new operators.
 The plant when in operation. to its full est capacity, employs about 1,5OO men, and that 1t Is to continue in operation is joyous news to Annistonians The receiv- CTS have been operating the plant here for several months and now have orders for several hundred cars. While Captain Elliott was in charge of affairs of the Southern Car and Foundry Company, the local plant was worked to its fullest ca- pacity continually, and many large orders for cars were booked. It is thought that he will again take charge when the re- ceivers' lease expires.
 The giving out of names of successors of present operators is awaited with much interest by Annistonians.

APLEASAMT SURPRISE.
In Store for Those Who Doubt.

When you read that sufferer of many years standing has been completely re- stored to health by using Smiths Cure all, you are inclined to doubt the state ment, and, in fact, have no belief in 1t whatever. The reason for this is that 50 much is claimed for the Cure-all 1t is impossible for anyone to believe it; # the advertiser confined his claims to the curing of one disease, as do the proprie- tors of Pyramid Pile Cure, readers would have much more faith in published tes- timonials. Those familiar with this great remedy know that testimonials as to its merit may be relied upon implicitly, also that the cures brought about by its use are little short of marvellous. The of the testimonial here given Is vouched for and Is but one of thous- ands received:
 T wish to write you and tell you what your Pyramid Pile Cure has done for me l have been troubled with piles for the past i've years and used every remedy that was recommended to me. While some would give me relief for a while they never have cured. I was so bad this summer l could not get up or down without pain; could not attend to my household duties. Finally got a 50-cent box of Pyramid Pile Cure at the drug gist's and it Is now two months since I used the last of the box, and have had no trouble since. l can say 1t is really and truly good remedy.
 "I am so thankful tried 1t as I know 1t has cured me. and if at any time should have any such trouble again I would use it at once. Since I am cured ! have recommended it to my friends, whom I know to be afflicted as was. and I know they will use 1t too. I am so thankful I ever learned of your cure.' '' Mrs F. Hut, 460 2nd Street, Grand Rap ids Mich.
