Montgomery, July Special )-The Coal Barons, headed by Daddy Vaughan, jumped into the game this afternoon and played the locals off their feet. Fitzpatrick was on the firing line for the Vaughanites and was in great form. All that the Sen ators could do to him was to hit his benders safely three times. Two of these were made by Stultz, and Hafford should have fielded the first and Moore the sec ond of the two hits.
 The entire Baron team played fast ball. with the exception of Moore at short, who seemed to be decidedly off color. His two errors were the only ones made by the Bir- mngham team A great running catch by Sc'hiap in the fifth inning of Mulaney's hit back of second base was easily the star play of the game. Delehanty and Smith also made difficult plays. Lawler for Montgomery made a sensational catch of Clarke's hit in the seventh inning, which looked good for two bags.
 The Lone Score.
 The lone score of the game came in the sixth inning when Hafford, the first man up for the Barons, drove a line drive straight at Brouthers. who was good enough to let it get away from him and Hafford landed on first safely Miller played bunt down the first base line and Hafford was safe on second.
 Daddy Vaughan came up and swung vic- iously at the ball and a pop fly to sec ond was the result. Delehanty. a Mont gomery player of last year. bingled to right center and Hafford raced across the plate while Delehanty went to third on Lawler's poor return of the ball Ginger Clark and Hale will probably be the op- posing pitchers tomorrow.

fore he had finished. The jury retired immediately afterward. It required almost two hours for the twelve men to reach an agreement On account of the jury be- ing out so long 1t was thought by many that mistrial would be the result, and that the jury could not reach an agree ment. When they filed into the court room Judge Greene asked if they had reached an agreement in the case and l.. P. Gates. the foreman. replied that they had and read the verdict in a clear voice.
 Attorneys shugart and Bell for the de- fendant made hard fight for their client
 Judge Greene stated after the verdict had been returned that it was one of the most stubborn fought murder cases that he had watched in many years.
 It Is likely that when Judge Greene pronounces sentence on the doomed man. Shugart and Bell, his attorneys, will ap- peal for new trial and, if that is re- fused, will take it to the supreme court.
 The crime for which the prisoner has been sentenced to pay the death penalty, was committed few months ago at the corner of Third avenue and Twentieth street. Tesnell was operating a car on the Gate City line of the Bipmir gF Railway. Light and Power company, and crowd of negroes were rlu.4.s ... s..s front platform. Among them was Dix.

CHAT TTANOOGA MAY JET NEW FURNACE Movement on Foot to Erect
 Another Stack
MORE IRON BADLY NEEDED
Chattanooga Foundries Are Consuming More Iron Than Ever Before and Pig Has to Be Shipped
 to the City.

Chattanooga, December 16.-tSpeciaL)- There is a strong probability that work will be started within the next year on another blast furnace in this city. The Citico furnace, which has been in opera tion for a number of years, the Chatta- nooga furnace which will blow in about March l. and another furnace equally as large as either of these, is needed to sup ply the local demand for iron.
 It was stated recently by gentleman prominently connected with the industrial life of this city that a well known fur mace company was very eager to locate here in the event that suitable location could be secured Other local men have taken the matter up and it is said that the location will be forthcoming.
 It is said that there is not mile of the track of the Chattanooga Southern which does not run through rich iron ore deposits and in the event that another furnace is erected here it is probable that these would be developed. It Is also known that there are other rich deposits in this section and the furnaces would not be taxed with high freight rates to secure the necessary material which they would need.
