INSPECTOR MAKES
REPORT ON BLOCKS
Investigated Use of Cement
Blocks in Buildings
MAKES RECOMMEN DATIONS
Says Strict Ordinances Should Be
Passed Covering the Use of These
BIocks-He Visited Sew
era Cities.
MAKES RECOMMEN DATIONS

Building Inspector Lind yesterday sub
mitted the following report to the Mayor
on Investigations he has made on the sub
ject of the use of cement blocks in other
cities for building purposes:
Birmingham, Ala, May 7, eo6
Honorable Board of Mayor and Aldermen,
Birmingham, Ala.
Gentlemen-I herewith submit report of
my investigations In regard to cement
blocks in other cities that 1 visited where
the same is being used and manufactured
viz; Dayton, Akron, Cleveland and
Youngstown, o.; Detroit. Jackson and
Grand Rapids, Mich. and Sharon, Pa.
Calling on the building inspectors OF
these different Cities it develops that
none of them have any completed ordi-
nances covering the use of the cement
blocks.
l find, however, that all the inspectors
endorse the cement block as a substan-
tial building material for ordinary build
ings not over four stories in height I'M
der the condition, however, that said
blocks are properly made. This question
as to whether or not they are properly
made seems to be the main difficulty con-
fronted by all those who attempt to draft
ordinances.
Some inspectors mentioned and have
in mind "a crushed strength test" this
DelnB Sucn an expensive proposition, how
ever, 1t tends to do away with that idea
Others are considering the ACCESSIBILITY
of requiring heavy licenses and bonds
from the manufacturers. coupled with
laws strict enough in regard to the mix
Ing and manufacturing of the blocks to
indemnify and protect the city and the
people If it should be found at any time
that the manufacturers fail to observe
all the requirements of the ordinance as
set out in regard to proportions, mixing,
etc, the city reserving the right also to
revoke license and forfeit bonds.
/ find many buildings such as churches
and three-story school houses and differ
ent heavy manufacturing buildings con-
structed of hollow block cement, which
showed every evidence of hollow block
cement, making a good building material
| find that the block has some draw
backs as well as other building material,
although this Is usually traced to I'M
skilled labor and poor material.
AS our city is constantly growing in
new enterprises, especially in hollow
block cement line | herewith suggest
that we have strict ordinances drawn
covering the manufacture and erecting of
same, and would be glad to have the as
sistance of your honorable body. the city
attorney and all those interested In build
ing material Respectfully submitted,
JOHN p. LIND,
Building Inspector.

Idle for nearly third Of century,
and with large depression on the

work iugs, the Grant, the oldest patented
claim on Ute creek and at Que time a
good producer of rich silver ore, is again
being opened up. under lease, by
Messrs. MacLean 8, Wuetie.
The Grant IS one of the old patents,
the claim being only SO feet in wi'th.
and is located between the Silver Horn
and The Soapy Smith mines. 1t is on the
same vein as the Muscovite and Silver
Ring mines and in the early '7os consid-
cradle rich ore was. shipped 10 George
town on the backs of burros. Litigation
caused the properly to be closed down.
and it Is said that the sides of the shaft
were assisted to cave IN by the use Of
powder, in order to hide the rich ore iE
the bottom. AT any rate, no one knows
the depth Of The old shaft or the extent oi
the workings. Ordinarily this could be
estimated by the SIZE of the dump. buI
portions of this have been washed away
by the rains and SHOWS of the recurring
seasons.
The work of cleaning outapd retimher
ing the old shat, was started the fore
part of last week and a depth of thirty
feet has now been reached. The filling
in the old shaft contains a considerable
amount of lead ore which is being
sorted out by the leasers who already
have nearly enough sacked up for the
initial sbipm. mt. All Of the vein matter
