Coal and Coke.

The coal production In this State is held down only by the poor failroad service. The Pratt Consolidated Coal Company will shortly be working at full capacity twenty seven new mines in the western part of Jefferson Couu- ty. Beginning tomorrow, the North Alabama Railroad, Louisville & Nash vile Railroad), will put on a regular train service west of the Little War rior River The road was practically completed a couple of weeks since, but a little rise in the river washed away some of the false work to the bridge. which delayed the work some, and it was but a day or two since that tho road was put through entirely.
 Seven car loads of slag were placed on the false work to hold 1t down, but the water was swift and the slag and bridge work went down together. Some of the coal in this new field measures over nine feet and the crudest kind of mining machinery is to be used. This means that the production will be heavy and the cost of production low.
 The demand for coal warrants the mining of every ton possible. The railroads cannot begin to haul all the coal that Is offered them. Railroads have representatives still In this dis, trict watching the shipment of the company fuel and doing everything pos sible 10 bring about prompt deliveries otherwise The indications are that there will be not let up in the activity fin the coal sections of the State at any time this year. not even during the summer.

be a most difficult job.

proposed to employ compressed air to

been done before, but Captain Leslie
succeeded in interesting Canadian and
United States capitalists and engineers
