NEWS OF BIRMINGHAM

Birmingham, Jan. 1.--(Special.) )--In Birmingham a most prosperous year in wholesale, retail and Jobbing busi- ness is looked for, while the indica- tions are that the year opening to- day will be the most prosperous in the industrial section of Alabama ever en- joyed. It is given out that pig irop will open up during this week at $14 per ton for No. 3 foundry. orders are on hand for this product for several months to come, the better part of the make for the first six months having been sold ahead.
 If the coal miners strike can be settled no less than seven furnaces will be started up in this State. Two furnaces will be lighted in the next three weeks. The iron product for the year just closed will not show up as we'll as 1t was during 1903. but it will be near 1t. The production went over 1.250,OO0 tons in 1903. The quiet demand for che first six months of 1904 and the coal and coke supplies being short during the latter half of the year played havoc with the iron production.
 The steel production in Alabama during the year 1904 was larger than ever before and astounds those who are watching this production. The plant at Ensley belonging to the Tennessee Coal. Iron and Railroad Company, has been working steadily and each month has been turning out a large amount of steel. In December there was a larger production than in November. though the last named month was a record breaker. The steel plant of the Alabama Steel and Wire Company at Gadsden has been doing nicely. There has been no hesitation in the cast iron production and all the pipe that could be manufactured in this section has found a strong de- mand.
 It is believed that the construction of the Panama canal is going to be felt by the manufacturing concerns in the Birmingham district and that dur ing the present year much trade will come this way, though the actual work does not start for some time. The coal production for the year 1904 will exceed twelve million tons. State Mine Inspector J. NJ. Gray is getting up blanks to be sent to the various mining concerns in order that they may report the production for the year. From these reports, required by law, the state Mine Inspector will make up his report as to production. The production in 1908 was over Ill., 500, ,00O tons.
 , Despite the strike of several thou sand union miners, there has been a healthy production of coal the past year and the total production of the year has been large.
 The announcement is made that there is to be extensive development in coal fields during the present year. Walker county to have several new mines, while Jefferson. Bibb. Tusixa- loosa and shelby counties will also see some new development. There are
