ARMOUR PURCHASE AT. CURTIS


II was reported in financial circles to-
day that the big Curtis Bay sugar rein
cry, owned by the American Sugar Re
timing Company, had been sold to Ar
mour Co, the Chicago meat-packing
concern. The price paid for the prop.
crty was not diyulged, but it is said to
have lbeen over $l,000,00O. The report
was that the Armour people purpose to
install an immense abat:oir after making
such changes in the big building as may
be necessary, and locate at Curtis Bay
an important branch of their Chicago
butehering and packing business.
The Curtis Bay refinery was built in
the late eighties, by local capital, and
represented an investment of several
millions Of dollars. The building was
destroyed by fire in 1898, but was rebuilt
in 1895 and thoroughly equipped with
the most modern aud expensive machin-
ery. Before the plant was put in opera
ton, however, it was absorbed by tie
Sugar Trust and has never been in opei-
ton.
During the past three years, it is al
legged, great quantities of the most valu
able machinery in the building have been
taken to the South and installed in sew
eral large plants established by the trust
nearer the supply of the raw material.
Much OF the machinery, which has be-
come out of date in the great advance
made in machinery for the manufacture
Of sugar, has been disposed of to small
purchasers, at nominal prices. 1t was
estimated two months ago that the build
ing held zoo tons of copper, 10 say moth
ing Of other valuable machinery
The work of dismantling the plant has
been going on for several years About
SEQ operatives were employed in the re-
inery when in operation, and during
that time Curtis Bay was one of the bus
lest suburbs of the Wednesdays

It is with much pleasure that we chronicle the return of Rev. s. H. Babcock as pastor of the Methodist church. The conference seems to have acted in consonance with the wishes of the church members here. since all seem to be pleased with the appoint ment. Deeply regretted. however, will be the departure of the beloved presiding elder. w. C. Davidson, and his estimable wife. His kindly minis trations have soothed, comforted and uplifted many q weary soul, and a man of more spiritual strength it is rare to ind and We feel that the peo- pie of the Jonesboro station, to which he is assigned, are blest in having such pastor.
