The Monongahela Coal and Coke
company, better known as the coal
combine" has made Paducah an i'm
portant point. and the circulation OF
thousands Of dollars year here
among various interests.
The combine was formerly almos;
exclusively in the coal business. but
Il is now widening its scope until II
has gone into the general towing bus
mess on a big scale. and has boats TO
use in towing anything.
II has also confined itself largely
to the Ohio and Mississippi rivers
heretofore. but has now decided to
invade the Tennessee and Cumber-
land and their tributaries. II has a
large number OF boats and barges in
addition to its scores Of big coal tow
boats. having only recently bough.
out the Valley Line at Cairo. includ
ing three boats and thirty barges. II
is understood that 1t has also closed
q deal for the Barrett Line. but this
has not ye; been officially confirmed
The combine. however. has decided
to enter the towing business on the
Tennessee and Cumberland rivers.
and all the lu5is IS viii be handled
through PaI1eat. Capt. Tun Lowell
who has been in t..r sc OF Capt. Ed.
Woolfolk's business at Cairo. has
been made superintendent OF the
business on the Ohio river between
Paducah and Cairo. and on the Ohio
and Tennessee rivers. with headquar-
tiers in Paducah.
Capt Lowell yesterday resigned his
position and Capt. Voolfolk went TO
Cairo today to check him out. He
will arrive here at once. and have
his Office opened by December LIST.
OF course active business cannot be
gin until the river rises. but when
there is a boating stage, IL will likely
find the coal combine ready for bust
ness.
Il Is understood that the Wash
Honshell and Fritz will be brought
here from Cairo to do the work aboue
Paducah, and possibly several small
Ell boats will be pressed into service
Tor the Tennessee and Cumberland.
The Charles Hook, it is under
stood, will be sent to Green river,
which stream is also to be invaded by
the coal combine.
This change will not affect the 10
cal coal business Of the combine. A
few months ago It opened coal Of
fee to supply coal to the wholesale
and retail trade. and its Office will
remain in charge of Capt. Donnell.
the local agent.
Capt Lowell is to be the superin-
tendent of all abe towing business in
this locality. bnt will have nothing to
do with the coal business here. Il is
likely his Office will be in the compa-
ny's present quarters on Broadway
between First and Second.
Capt. Lowell is expected tonight or
tomorrow to take charge. He is a
popular and capable man, and has
many friends who will be glad to wei.

BUILDING QUARRY RAILROADS.
Realizing wherein they made a mistake
in not building a railroad to the Barre
granite quarries many years ago, officers
Of the Central Vermont r. r. are now
losing no time in constructing q line to the

Bethel. The directors OF the new road,

president, yiee-president and general man
ager, attorney, superintendent Of trans
portation and treasurer Of the Central
