 Also Projected ENSLEY IS JUBIl AN l Large Sums to Be Expended at Thomas and Ensley In Extension and ln-
 provements-New organiza' ton Brings Activities.
ENSLEY IS JUBlL AN I

Ensley December 21.-(Special.)- )-In addi- ton to the large extensions that are to be made in the steel plant of the Ten nessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company at this place, the announcement is made that the cast iron pipe plant mentioned some time ago will be built soon, though the exact location has not yet been de- cided upon
 It is understood, however, that it will either be at Ensley or Thomas. Announce ment was made some weeks ago that this plant would be built at Open Hearth hill, near the furnaces in this city, but the matter was deferred until after the meeting of stockholders and directors in New York last Tuesday.
 It is also very probable that a new wire and nail mill will be built, possibly at Ensley or Thomas, though this has not yet been definitely announced.
 It is certain that great things are in store for this section, as the direct re- suit of the new blood in the Tennessee.
 Other plants in the district operated by the Tennessee Coal Iron and Railroad company and the Republic Steel and Iron company will also feel the direct result of the reorganization, but the people of Ensley feel that the greatest and most important improvements will come to this section.
 The new cast iron pipe plant to be built by the Republic-Tennessee merger will have a capacity of more than 5000 tons mn io bot ha pacity will greatly exceed this amount The figures given represent the minimum
 An early announcement of the building of the wire and nall mill is expected by those In position to know some thing of the progressive policy and plans of the new industrial organization.
